On how normal college students should do a good job in educational practice

1. Problems in the educational internship of normal college students

At the beginning of the winter vacation in 2012, I served as the internship leader and instructor, leading 12 normal students to a remote rural middle school to carry out During the 8-week internship, the weather was cold, but the leaders, faculty and staff of the internship site warmly welcomed us and made us feel warm. Here, the interns are valued by middle school leaders and teachers, welcomed by middle school students, and the internship work proceeds smoothly. The interns work hard and actively, bringing vitality and vitality to the school at the internship site. The internship school arranges the work and life of the interns carefully and thoughtfully, and truly achieves a win-win effect between the internship site middle school and the interns. But there were two students with problems: one was re-examining the postgraduate entrance examination and wanted to end his internship so that he could have more time to prepare for study; the other was a male student who wanted to take two weeks off because his brother was getting married and go home to help. The two students' requests for leave will undoubtedly have an impact on the work arrangements at the internship site. For them, they will not be able to achieve the expected internship results. Of course, after the guidance and coordination of the instructor, the two students finally completed the internship tasks. .

From March to June 2013, according to the school work arrangement, I served as an educational internship instructor in Taocheng District, Hengshui City, guiding and managing the daily work of 8 internship sites, guiding 168 students in internships, and encountered some question. 1. From the perspective of internship bases, some schools do not pay attention to the interns and look down upon the intern normal students. As soon as the interns arrive, they immediately hold a meeting to arrange the internship instructors and office locations of the interns at the base, but then let the interns see When it comes to homework, proctoring exams, and studying in the office, the instructors at the base do not allow students to attend lectures, attend classes, or participate in class management. They lock up interns and treat them coldly. The practice is contrary to the rules and regulations of the internship; 2. From the perspective of intern students, some students often ask for leave, have improper internship attitudes, and think too highly of themselves. When the internship base arranges for them to work, they tend to ignore the easy and avoid the heavy, are not serious, are not active, and cannot be practical. Do things calmly, in short, do not realize the importance of internship. However, the interns were very dissatisfied with the cold treatment of them by the internship base, so the interns were tired of coping with the internship work, causing the internship work to be in name only. 3. From the perspective of universities sending interns, they did not choose to identify qualified internship bases, did not educate students with excellent academic performance, and did not do a good job in mobilizing and educating students for internships. All these problems lead to low quality internships and poor social impact.

From March 17 to June 21, 2014, according to the school work arrangement, I served as an educational internship instructor in Jingxian County, Hengshui City, guiding and managing the daily work of 7 internship sites, and guiding 78 students in internships . Generally speaking, both the internship sites and the students participating in the internship performed well, and everything complied with the internship rules and regulations for normal university students. There were only two special intern students who performed poorly. One of the female classmates, whose boyfriend pretended to be her father, called the instructor and said, "I'm not acclimated to the climate and asked to be transferred away from the Jing County internship site" and asked to be transferred to another county for internship. Base middle school because there is a girl’s uncle in that county who can take care of her. The instructor believed it was true and actively coordinated and contacted the matter. In the process, he discovered that the man who claimed to be "father" was the girl's boyfriend. Of course, he immediately warned the two students to avoid the adverse effects of randomly changing the internship location. In addition, a student unscrupulously left his internship position in the name of taking the postgraduate entrance examination. He was warned by the teacher who led the internship work at the internship site middle school. Instead of correcting himself, he openly gave gifts to the teachers at the internship site. This student was immediately reported to the chief instructor. I and the internship The leaders and teachers of the base school worked together to make this student return to the internship site with conviction, and promptly stopped the intern's inappropriate behavior. The leaders of the Jingxian Education Committee, the leaders and faculty of the internship base schools attach great importance to the educational internship of university normal students. The leaders of the Education Committee lead the team to supervise the internship work of each internship site. The leaders and teachers of the internship site are very concerned about the lives and lives of the interns. The work arrangements are thoughtful and the interns are guided to work standards. The interns at each internship site work hard, are highly motivated, and have remarkable work results. The interns were welcomed when they first arrived at the internship base. After the internship, the interns returned to the university and were sincerely persuaded by middle school and primary school students at each internship site to stay. The problem is that the number of outstanding interns in the selection is limited, but there are many truly outstanding interns, and there are many young monks. As a result, I reluctantly gave up to many outstanding people but could not get the outstanding spots. Thinking about this still makes me feel pain. However, the evaluation system cannot be changed immediately.

In addition, it is a common phenomenon that many interns in internship base educational institutions take courses that are inconsistent with their majors at university. Scholar Jiang Yuqin also pointed out this problem in her article analyzing internship support education policies. As far as the practice of leading an internship team as an instructor is concerned, the actual teaching situation of the education internship of university normal students in Jingxian Education Practice Base, Hebei Province from March 17 to June 30, 2014 shows that more than one-third of the interns have a mismatched major. , this base has 79 interns, two of whom were also arranged to teach multiple courses in primary schools; from March 18 to June 30, 2013, there were 164 interns in the Hengshui Taocheng District Education Internship Base, 1/3 of whom were interns The courses students take are also inconsistent with the majors they study; during the six-week education and teaching internship in undergraduate normal colleges that started on February 26, 2012, 4 of the 14 interns in a township middle school taught classes that were not consistent with the majors they studied. Professional inconsistency.

2. Strategies for solving the problems of educational internship for college normal students

Educational internship is of great significance. During the internship process, the interns’ educational and teaching practical ability is greatly improved. It will be of great benefit to the schools on the base. The interns are young, about the same age as middle school students, and are popular among middle school students. The interns are creative and open-minded, and some interns have very high teaching quality as soon as they come to the podium. There are students in middle schools who need key tutoring. Making full use of intern tutoring will help increase the rate of middle school admissions, because interns have a deep professional foundation and flexible methods. If you do a good job in education and teaching practice, you will achieve a win-win effect. Doing a good job in educational internships can enhance the competitiveness of normal colleges and universities. Educational internship has become an important part of the current teacher education reform in many countries.

(1) Countermeasures for solving the problem of educational internship in normal colleges and universities

Educational internship is a compulsory practical course for normal college students before they graduate, and is the only way to work after graduation. road, so it is of great significance. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. “If you don’t accumulate small steps, you won’t reach a thousand miles.” Colleges and universities first provide freshmen with political, ideological and theoretical instruction and guidance on life values. They also provide guidance on practical learning methods. After all, universities and primary and secondary schools The learning methods are different, so that students can learn, learn theoretical knowledge and learn educational technology, which is the first priority. On the basis of ensuring that students master theoretical knowledge, strengthen the teaching links of students' experimental operations and practical applications, so as to cultivate new ideas that combine students' application ability, practical ability and innovation ability①. Provide students with independent learning education and adopt a teaching model that combines classroom theoretical knowledge teaching with practical classroom teaching to improve professional knowledge and practical capabilities. Secondly, use examinations and assessments as means to do a good job in teachers' teaching and students' learning, so that students can complete theoretical knowledge learning tasks step by step with quality and quantity. With the accumulation of knowledge, normal school students will improve their academic level; with strict training in education and teaching skills, they will have methods to transfer knowledge and educate primary and secondary school students. Thirdly, carefully select the internship base through inspection. Some schools at internship sites arrange an office for interns. Once the interns arrive, they are isolated and cold, and the interns are not allowed to come into contact with students. The instructor at the internship site is only responsible for filling out an internship form. The internship work loses its meaning and effectiveness, and the internship Students only see the internship site’s distrust and lack of support for them. Such internship site schools are not qualified to accept interns, so universities and education committees must choose other qualified internship site schools. Among primary and secondary schools, schools whose leaders and teachers are responsible, have a sincere attitude toward interns, and can implement internship rules and regulations well are the schools that should be chosen as internship sites. Schools at internship sites should be broad-minded and provide job opportunities within their capabilities so that normal college students can display their talents, which will achieve a win-win effect.

Of course, before normal students graduate for internship and during their studies at university, colleges and universities should actively carry out observation and counseling activities, organize normal school students to regularly visit primary and secondary schools to investigate and understand the current status of basic education, and conduct interviews with primary and secondary school students. Pairs of one-to-one regular tutoring are not only beneficial to colleges and universities in training normal students, but also serve the society and reduce the burden on primary and secondary school teachers and parents of primary and secondary school students.

(2) Measures for college normal students to solve the problem of educational internship

For college normal students, if they choose the sacred profession of teacher, they must do what they love, and they must You must be passionate about your work, and you must have a correct attitude, positivity and seriousness in internship work.

Secondly, if normal students want to do a good job in internships, they must prepare early. In terms of how they behave in the world, they should correct themselves first and work hard to cultivate themselves; in terms of knowledge and skills, they need to have talents and strive to improve their knowledge and skills. While in school, trying to take more certificates is also an accumulation of abilities. Thirdly, we should be dedicated, modest and cautious. Often interns are unable to work steadfastly, feel impetuous, and have too high self-esteem. They look down on ordinary positions and always want to do big things. High-rise buildings are built from the ground up brick by brick. On the road to career development, you must be down-to-earth in order to have better development opportunities.

(3) Methods for families and society to solve internship problems

Families and universities must cooperate closely. Families provide college students with not only material support such as tuition and living expenses, but also There is spiritual support, guidance and sufficient time guarantee. Nowadays, the level of communication development is high and transportation is convenient. Parents should cooperate with universities to continue education and cultivate college students, who are the builders of the country and home. Parents' hard work and simplicity are the best education for college students. Parents should try their best to communicate with college students as much as possible, and talk about simple principles of life, ways of doing things, and lessons learned in taking care of themselves in life. All of this is guidance, care, and support. Of course, parents try their best not to distract college students, and parents should not distract their children with things that parents can handle. Enlightened parents should not allow college students to participate in red tape events such as weddings and birthday parties. Parents need to be wise when exchanging information and ideas with college students. Parents should give their children enough free time and space to study and live in college. Parents should realize that internship is a compulsory practical course for college students. Only by taking it seriously can it be beneficial to college students' employment after graduation.

In society, leaders of district, county, township and town government agencies at all levels and the general public should pay attention to and support the internship work of normal college students and maintain public security so that interns can live and work safely. The society should believe in interns, support internship work, and train batches of excellent basic education teachers so that children can grow better.

In view of the problem that the courses taken by interns are inconsistent with the majors studied in universities, universities and internship base educational institutions must do their best to ensure that interns can apply what they have learned when dispatching and arranging interns; the interns themselves must do their best To adapt to the current reality, after all, primary and secondary schools strive to be able to meet the urgent needs of the people. When soldiers come, they will be blocked, and when water comes, the soil will cover up. Each course has the same teaching methods and concepts. The subject knowledge has the foundation in middle school, plus the People seek advice from books, and through applying what they have learned, they will contribute high-level education and teaching quality to middle school students, thereby becoming good teachers and helpful friends for students in internship sites.

The good development of educational internships will bring about the vigorous development of people’s education. Education is a century-old plan. Education thrives, people thrive, and China thrives.
