What is the homework?

Tang Jinlong, Gao Zhe Middle School, Chaohu City, Anhui Province [238062]

What is the homework? The teacher may laugh at me for asking such a childish question.

I asked this question because I recently read a message, "Don't do your homework at home". It is reported that at the beginning of April this year, an experimental primary school in a city broke this routine. Their homework is no longer to write new words, copy texts, do exercises and recite words, but to complete four "half hours", that is, half an hour of reading, half an hour of fitness, half an hour of housework and half an hour of watching TV.

Obviously, the motivation of the school is good, but it also blurs a concept, that is, what is homework? Is the homework just "writing new words, copying texts, doing exercises and memorizing words"? I'm afraid this is still the traditional thinking under the background of examination. The four and a half hours they tried by themselves should also be said to be a kind of "homework", which means that students also have "homework" when they go home, but it is different from traditional homework.

Strictly speaking, the role of homework lies in: consolidating what you have learned; Explore new knowledge; Develop good study habits; Exercise thinking ability. From this perspective, homework is of course a broad concept. However, under the current situation, forced by the powerful baton, our concept of "homework" has been alienated to some extent.

Recently, I attended an educational symposium and listened to a leader talk about educational theory. Starting from the "theory of mass needs", he expounded the connotation of doing a good job in people's satisfaction education, that is, letting the children of ordinary people pass the exam and get ahead. Parents are excited, but think calmly. Is this the fundamental connotation of education?

If we consider a person's long-term development, the test results are only temporary and cannot represent a person's ability. Besides, besides intelligence, a person's comprehensive quality should also include emotional intelligence and other factors.

Some examples in life might as well let us reflect on the starting point of education.

Ignaz Semel Weiss was born in Budapest in 18 18. As a young intern, he works in a gynecological hospital in Vienna. There, he made a shocking discovery: one in ten women died of puerperal fever. They are all poor, and the rich women who have children at home are far from such a mortality rate.

Semel Weiss observes the daily work of the hospital carefully. He noticed that doctors often go directly from the morgue to the delivery room to check on the parturient after autopsy. Therefore, he suggested that as an experiment, doctors should wash their hands before touching pregnant women. However, Semel Weiss was only a trainee doctor at that time, and his outspoken protest was regarded as an affront to authority by the medical community at that time.

Besides, washing hands is tantamount to admitting that the responsibility for maternal death lies with the doctor, who caused the patient's infection. This is more difficult for the authorities to accept. But death continued, and Semel Weiss voiced again and again, pleading again and again.

Finally, after exhausting all kinds of satire, sarcasm and ridicule on Semel Weiss, the doctors finally agreed. They began to wash their hands with soap. It was this ordinary "hand washing" that made a miracle happen-the maternal mortality rate dropped to only 1%.

From Semel Weiss, we can clearly feel a sense of responsibility and a persistent spirit. How can you not do your job well with such quality? Reflection: If the students we train only pay attention to the knowledge of death and the students' test scores, they are likely to rely on authority, stick to book dogma and cannot put forward their own unique opinions according to the actual situation. It can be seen that students who emphasize the examination-oriented training of "nerds" are qualified talents? Can you work creatively? Can you make achievements?

One year, some Japanese friends visited China. When they came back from visiting the Great Wall with them, the tour guide parked the car in front of a newly renovated drugstore. Colleague Mr. Kurokawa was not interested in buying medicine, so he went to the window alone to see the scenery outside. I overheard him frowning there. I thought he had something to say, so I asked him why he was unhappy. Unexpectedly, he pointed to the corner of the newly installed aluminum window frame and said that the development of China still needs time. Looking carefully, it is probably the builder's initial calculation error, and he saw a small gap near the corner under the aluminum frame. When Kurokawa looked out of the window, the sharp corner of the gap just cut his hand.

"In Japan, this kind of work can't be done. If you hand over your job, it will be a shame to live. It seems that it will take time for China to catch up with the world level. " The topic of Kurokawa, who was a craftsman, obviously surpassed the accident of chopping hands: "When I returned to China, I saw at first sight that there was little difference between Shanghai, Beijing and Tokyo Osaka. But if you look at the details, you feel that there is still a long way to go. The interior decoration here looks beautiful, but you can see that the newly painted latex on the wall has drums, which are unnecessary.

In half a year, it will fall off here, like a scar on a bald head. Look at the iron ring on the curtain again, there are already red rust marks. Even if the hardware is exactly the same, if it is here, "he pointed to his head," if it is not completely updated, it will not be able to complete the most beautiful work in the world. "200 1 before I returned to China, the Japanese market was full of China products. As a China person, I regret that our products can only win at low prices. A Minolta camera looks exactly the same, but the price is completely different just because the following places of origin are marked "Made in Japan" and "Made in China" respectively. I specifically asked a manager of Minolta. According to him, the production line of China factory is exactly the same as that of Japanese factory. But why can the same machine, the products we make, only sell at a low price internationally, but the products made by the Japanese can sell at a high price? Part of the answer lies in Mr. Kurokawa's remark that "such work cannot be completed." If you hand over your work, it is a shame to live. ""You can't make the most beautiful work in the world. " These seemingly ordinary words.

Do we pay attention to cultivating students' sense of responsibility when we educate students at ordinary times? Have you noticed how to cultivate students' attention to detail? Obviously, we haven't done enough. In a sense, in addition to the traditional assignments for students, should we also consider giving them some new "assignments" that can really cultivate their will and morality according to the needs of students' personality development?

What is homework? All behaviors that help to develop students' comprehensive quality are "homework". As long as you jump out of the test cycle, you can actually answer what is homework without too much consideration.
