Specific requirements of classroom education of criminal counseling

First of all, we should realize the importance of ideological education. Ideological education is the primary content of China's spiritual civilization construction. Ideological education for criminals is an important method and means to educate and reform criminals. Ideological education for criminals is an important function entrusted by China Prison Law and other laws to the supervision and reform organs. Article 4 of the Prison Law stipulates: "A prison shall supervise criminals according to law, organize criminals to engage in productive labor according to the needs of reforming criminals, and educate criminals in ideology, culture and technology." This is the legitimacy of ideological education for criminals. The prison law clearly stipulates this, so it is legally mandatory to carry out ideological education and reform for criminals. This compulsion is manifested in the fact that prisons, as national penalty enforcement organs, must effectively carry out ideological education and reform of criminals in their daily law enforcement activities. Ideological education for criminals is the core of criminal education, and its purpose is to transform new people while removing the original criminal thoughts and bad habits, which is the corrective nature of ideological education.

In prison, we often see such slogans as "reform our thinking, turn over a new leaf" and "reform our thinking, actively reform our thinking". In fact, it is the most difficult to transform people's minds. As the saying goes, "A leopard cannot change his spots." There are historical and social reasons for criminals to embark on the road of crime, but for most people, it is still the ideological root. What I want is to get rich quickly and live as a gentleman. The existence of this idea has also affected the reform of some criminals to a certain extent. If this problem is not solved, criminals may commit crimes again after serving their sentences. At present, the assessment of prison work has taken the recidivism rate after release as an important basis. To solve this problem, it is impossible to rely solely on manpower and supervision. Ideological work must also be done to solve the ideological problems in the minds of criminals. Therefore, we must realize the importance of ideological education for criminals.

Secondly, the ideological education of criminals should pay attention to effective carriers. At present, there is no unified teaching material for ideological education of prisoners in prisons. In the daily ideological education of criminals, we should pay attention to effective carriers, so that ideological education can be implemented, avoiding empty preaching and being easily accepted by criminals. Otherwise, ideological education may be a castle in the air or a rootless duckweed.

For example, in the process of escape prevention education, criminals can understand what freedom is, what is real freedom, the relationship between freedom and restraint, and how to obtain real freedom. Through these questions, criminals can understand the danger of escape. At the same time, in the teaching process, as a teacher, we should look for more cases through the Internet, newspapers, magazines and other channels, especially some recent escape cases, so that criminals can truly understand that only by reforming with peace of mind can they get a new life.

In the process of ideological education, we should effectively combine ideological education with some specific activities, such as donating money for Wenchuan earthquake relief, family assistance, charitable fundraising and so on. To enhance the reality of ideological education. At the same time, we should organically combine situation education, future education and realistic transformation, avoid empty preaching and forced indoctrination, enhance the persuasiveness and attractiveness of ideological education, and let criminals enhance their initiative and enthusiasm in ideological learning.

Third, the ideological education of criminals should pay attention to the hot issues that criminals care about. The so-called hot spots are news or information that people pay more attention to and welcome. In the process of daily ideological education, we should do more investigation and research among criminals, understand the hot issues that criminals are currently concerned about, transmit relevant information to criminals in time, and enhance the pertinence of ideological education. This can also enhance the attractiveness of criminals in the process of education and enhance the initiative of criminals to receive education.

For example, recently, in view of the 60th anniversary of the National Day, some criminals learned the news of Amnesty from newspapers, magazines and other channels, and had great hopes for Amnesty. In view of this hot issue, the author, as an ideological education teacher, collected and arranged relevant information in time and held a special lecture on "Amnesty". The lecture focused on the basic issues such as what amnesty is, its purpose, procedure and legal effect, and made clear the background and targets of several pardons in the history of China, especially since the founding of New China. At the same time, compare the recent Amnesty cases abroad and make a detailed analysis. The seminar also compared the suggestions and opinions of some legal experts, NPC representatives, CPPCC representatives and ordinary people on Amnesty, so that criminals can clearly understand the possible positive and negative effects of Amnesty and the possible targets of Amnesty. Through special lectures, criminals have an essential understanding of Amnesty, avoiding some unrealistic dreams and fantasies, stabilizing their mentality, and enabling criminals to reform with peace of mind and practicality.

Fourth, grasp the breakthrough point of criminal ideological education. Ideological education is important to choose the right starting point, but it is also difficult to choose the right starting point. Choosing the right starting point is a science as well as an art, which is the concentrated embodiment of the continuous innovation of ideological education. A good starting point can make ideological education get twice the result with half the effort In the process of daily ideological education, we should pay attention to the opportunity of educating criminals, that is, the so-called breakthrough point. Only in this way can ideological education become simple and criminals understand the truth.

For example, when playing songs to criminals during the break, I found that many criminals like the song "Flying Free" and asked for it to be replayed many times, which shows their desire for freedom. The author firmly grasps this breakthrough point in class, focuses on what freedom is, expounds the severe employment situation outside at present, and requires criminals to study necessary labor skills here to lay a good foundation for themselves after they get out of prison. At the same time, I put forward my own suggestions on the control of criminals' bonuses: divide the bonuses into three pieces, and one third will be spent in prison; One third is given to relatives to maintain normal family relations; One third is reserved for the survival guarantee after you get out of prison, so that you can maintain your basic needs for a period of time after you get out of prison. Through this breakthrough point, criminals have been better educated in escape prevention, situation and family, and the basic contents of ideological education have been instilled in criminals unconsciously, and good results have been achieved.

Under the new situation, the contents, methods and methods of ideological education for criminals are facing many new problems. Under the new situation, it is obviously unable to meet the needs of the situation if the old preaching and preaching methods are still used to achieve the purpose of ideological reform of criminals. In the course of class, every ideological education teacher should carry out it according to different situations, pay attention to effective carriers, solve hot issues that criminals care about, grasp the starting point, and let ideological education enter the mind with emotion. Only in this way can we achieve the goal of educating, reforming and shaping people, make ideological education truly implemented, improve the quality of criminal reform and promote the safety and stability of prisons.
