[Campus culture is the cornerstone of school education brand] Campus Culture

For a school to develop, it must have a campus culture orientation. Campus culture is the "educational field" of the school. It is an organic whole composed of material culture, behavioral culture, institutional culture and spiritual culture. It is an important part of school education. It can not only cultivate the sentiments of teachers and students, regulate the behavior of teachers and students, but also stimulate the whole school's teachers and students' sense of identification with the school's goals and standards and their sense of mission and belonging as a member of the school, forming a strong centripetal force, cohesion and group consciousness. ,At the same time, it can also have a subtle educational effect on ,students.

Some people believe that "the competition in schools in the future is ultimately the competition of school culture. Principals should be good at gradually accumulating campus culture in educational practice and become an educational influence and a culture with huge potential." educational resources”. In my opinion, a good school must have excellent campus culture, and excellent campus culture is the cornerstone of a school's education brand. Our school attaches great importance to the construction of campus culture, adheres to the scientific outlook on development as its guidance, comprehensively implements educational policies and comprehensively improves the quality of education and teaching as its purpose, and comprehensively implements quality education and cultivates students' innovative spirit and practical ability as its starting point; insists on making the campus As an important starting point and carrier for the development of the school's brand and characteristics, cultural construction highlights the educational concept of "people-oriented, harmonious education"; insists on cultivating people with elegant campus material culture, inspiring people with noble campus spiritual culture, and scientifically Campus institutional culture spurs people. After more than a year of careful management and careful construction, our school has made great progress in the construction of campus culture, formed its own campus cultural characteristics, and created a good humanistic environment and development for the growth of students, the improvement of teachers, and the development of the school. The harmonious development atmosphere promotes the overall improvement of the quality of teachers and students and the self-improvement of school running quality. Campus culture has truly become the source of radiation for the school's comprehensive education and the energy bank of quality education.

Create a noble and elegant campus humanistic environment

The humanistic environment gives the school vitality and reflects the spiritual outlook and cultural heritage of a school. Suhomlinsky once said: “Let every wall on campus ‘speak’ and let every environment educate people.” Our school insists on paying attention to both the natural environment and the humanistic environment of the campus. While constantly improving the natural environment of the campus, we strive to explore the humanistic elements of the campus, promote the organic integration and harmonious development of the natural environment and the humanistic environment of the campus, and create a large classroom for ideological and moral education. Create an educational effect of "grass and trees encourage learning and walls speak", so that everywhere students look is educational!

1. Clarify responsibilities and achieve a refined management culture

Our school follows the refined management ideas of “clear management goals, strengthen work responsibilities, focus on process supervision, and ensure work effectiveness”, and actively guides all teachers to conscientiously implement the principle of “everything is managed, someone is in charge at all times, everyone is in charge, and everyone is attentive.” The refined management method of "management". The main methods in implementing refined management and implementing the two routines are: clarifying goals, keeping an eye on the process, doing small things carefully, and changing "result management" to "process management" to refine work links and strengthen Process supervision makes all routine management tasks more solid and in place.

2. Create a rich slogan culture

Campus slogan culture is a potential, continuous and relatively stable educational factor and cultural phenomenon. It can subtly influence the concepts and behaviors of teachers and students, and enhance the personality charm and life value of teachers and students. Our school attaches great importance to the educational function of slogan culture, and organically integrates the creation of a slogan cultural atmosphere with the construction of a scholarly campus, a safe campus, and a harmonious campus. Every classroom, office, stairway, railing, and every eye-catching location on the campus, All are marked with famous reading aphorisms, safety tips, and civilized reminders, allowing teachers and students to talk to celebrities at all times and feel the fragrance of books on campus. The school also attaches great importance to the construction of warning slogans and gives full play to the collective wisdom of teachers and students in the school to collect various warning slogans that complement the cultural slogans. For example, each class set up warm reminders for adopted small trees: "Love breeds life", "Green is life, green is hope", "We grow up together", "Like me, love me" environmental slogans; Supervise the guards and put up civilized warnings such as "Beauty flows from here" and "My beauty is tied to your hands"; combined with the situation and characteristics of our school, we put forward "Exercise, you are so beautiful; study, you are awesome" "Practice, you can do it" and create a strong atmosphere of "health, learning and activities".

3. Form a rich and colorful layout culture

Campus layout culture is a window for a school to display its spiritual outlook and exchange ideas and culture. It is also an important place for school humanistic and environmental education. Our school is committed to the construction of campus layout culture, making full use of the corridors on each floor of the campus and opening up multiple layout groups. These layout groups are endowed with different grade and class cultural promotion functions based on their locations. Except for two pages used for the principal's message to teachers and students, the other pages are decentralized to each grade of the school for independent use. Students are required to participate in page management and the page content is changed regularly to make the campus page truly a place for communicating information and exchanging ideas. Become a position for students' cultural activities, thus forming a rich and colorful layout culture on campus.

4. Develop a floor and stair culture with distinctive themes

As one of the main places for student activities, the stairs and corridors of the school are also a large place for the construction of campus humanistic culture. Our school organically integrates corridor culture and stair culture, making full use of various elements in the corridors on each floor of the teaching building, such as walls, square columns, stairwells, etc. Each floor is reasonably arranged around relevant educational themes, with the "Looking at the World" National Flag Exhibition, "Love Me Anyang" Scenic Spots Exhibition, China (World) Famous Schools Exhibition, "Chinese City Flowers" Exhibition, "Celebrity Corridor" and "Leadership" exhibition respectively. Floor culture with distinctive themes such as team responsibilities and work mottos.

5. Create a unique office and classroom culture

The deepest level of campus culture is an overall atmosphere, a discourse framework, a value identity, and A human connection. People living in it consciously and unconsciously live in such an atmosphere and speak within such a framework. For example, the Chinese language group in our school talks a lot about Chinese teaching involving emotion and wisdom, and Chinese teaching that pursues meaning. Each subject group in the school has its own characteristics and style. This is where the overall characteristics of the school lie. It doesn't take long for foreign teachers and new teachers to become infected. This is the power of culture and the role of culture. "Only happy teachers have happy children!" Let us use books to support life, let culture nourish the soul, let etiquette become business cards, and let art embellish life, so that every teacher can have a happy mood when he walks into the office every day. , let every teacher gain the joy and happiness of working in the office!

Classroom culture reflects the class style and style of study of a class, and reflects the spiritual outlook of a class. Our school attaches great importance to the construction of classroom culture and insists on delegating classroom layout management authority to the user classes, allowing the user classes to design and beautify the classroom according to their own ideas, and encourages each class to modify the classroom's class log, wall warnings, classroom bulletins, and podiums Make bold design innovations in decorations, etc. to create a unique classroom culture.

6. The mirror culture of "Seven Days a Day, Gratitude Sees Action"

Smile more, have a sweeter mouth, behave better, be less temperamental, treat others better, work better Be more careful, be more capable, or "seven dots" for short. This is our school's gratitude requirement for teachers, requiring teachers to learn to be grateful from details. For this reason, the school also specially made seven dots into slogans and pasted them on the mirrors of every office. superior. The reason why it is posted on the mirror is to let every teacher see themselves in the mirror when they are tidying up their appearance, and at the same time see the slogan to remind themselves to maintain a happy mood at all times. Although they are just some small slogans, they actually place high demands on teachers’ spiritual level. Nowadays, teachers are under a lot of pressure. In addition to normal teaching work, they also have tasks, activities and other tasks. Each teacher has a heavy burden on their shoulders. Sometimes they are inevitably depressed. Over time, they may also cause professional burnout. Seven points The requirement is to hope that every teacher can see the world from a different perspective, remind teachers to look at the things around them with a grateful heart, and use a grateful heart to adjust the teacher's mood and professional burnout. For example, the naughty students make the teacher exhausted, but when the teacher decorates and beautifies the classroom, many children will bring the best flowers at home. "Doesn't this move the teacher? Shouldn't the teacher treat the children with gratitude?" Similarly? , the school also treats every teacher with a grateful heart, provides teachers with training opportunities, improves the office environment, etc. This is also an action of the school to thank the teachers.

7. Let the ringtone become the "cultural field" of the school

"Students, it's time for class, please be ready for class!", "Hello, Teacher," before class in the morning !", "Songs and Smiles" at noon, ancient poems and songs such as "Compassion for the Farmers" before class in the afternoon, and music ringtones such as "Going Home" for a saxophone solo after school in the afternoon, inadvertently reminding teachers and students of their behavioral habits, so that Teachers and students work, study, and rest in a beautiful atmosphere... These unique cultural elements are organically combined, making the bell the "cultural field" of the school, and making teachers and students feel more cordial, comfortable, and upward. feeling. The school uses active and innovative thinking to think about the cultural construction of the campus, and reflects and spreads intelligent culture, normative culture and spiritual culture through a certain carrier, so that the extension of school culture is suddenly broadened, and the space for educational development is suddenly "squared" Many times.

8. Writing the toilet culture of human civilization

As a kind of environmental education force, the ultimate goal of campus culture is to create an atmosphere. I think the construction of campus culture should also include toilet culture . When humans developed to the point where they considered themselves civilized, toilets appeared. The toilet appeared as a matter of course and in time, allowing humans who were beginning to feel ashamed to solve this embarrassment in time. We have praised the diligence of cows and the loyalty of dogs, but we should not forget that the silent toilet is immersed in writing chapters for human civilization.

When mentioning the word "toilet", everyone feels that there is no need to mention it. How to talk about culture? But today's toilets are becoming more and more changed and have more and more connotations. In high-end restaurants, hotels or highway service areas, you can often see prompts such as "One small step forward, one giant leap for civilization" in the men's restrooms. Sometimes it does have profound meaning when you think about it. Civilization sometimes requires a little bit of effort. Some memory formulas can be prepared in the school toilet to help students remember, or they can write some small knowledge and jokes to remind students to pay attention to hygiene, so that students can relax temporarily after being nervous.

When you go to a school to inspect the work, you often don’t forget to check the toilets. If the toilets in a school are fully equipped and have not been damaged, it means that the quality of the students is high; if they are clean and tidy and have no odor, it means that the management is in place; if there is a cultural atmosphere and the environment is elegant, it represents the leader's taste in running a school.

Strengthen system construction and motivate people with a perfect campus system culture

Campus system culture, as the internal mechanism of campus culture, is an indispensable guarantee mechanism for maintaining the normal operation of the school. The role of cognitive orientation, emotional cultivation and behavioral norms. As a kind of campus culture, the school management system must be based on its own culture, serve its own campus spiritual culture, and well reflect and integrate the school's educational ideas and concepts. At the same time, we must also realize that a good system must move from text to culture. As for whether a system is culture, the most important thing is to see whether the system that embodies the school's thoughts, ideas, and spirit can be actually implemented. Therefore, in the process of comprehensively promoting the construction of campus system culture, our school adheres to both "establishing and improving various management systems" and "strengthening and improving corresponding organizational structures and team building", implementing the functional division of labor of various departments in the school, and increasing the The intensity of supervision and implementation of various systems makes the system deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and internalized into the behavioral norms of teachers and students throughout the school, forming a campus institutional culture.

School leaders set an example and seek quality from management, efficiency from management, and image from management, lowering the focus on management and focusing on implementation. The school believes that the life of the system lies in motivation, the effectiveness of the system lies in implementation, and the key to system implementation lies in leadership. In the practice of teaching management, schools use systems to manage people, use systems to cultivate people, and use systems to motivate people. Everyone is equal before the system, leaders practice it, leaders serve teachers, teachers serve students, struggle around quality, and combine emotional management with system management. I shape my tree, start from me, lead everyone to do it, and show it to everyone. School leaders take the lead in learning, scientific research, and dedication. Go deep into the front line of teaching and study teaching. The leadership team will attend no less than 8 classes and teachers will attend no less than 4 classes every week.

Relying on the Youth Military Academy to create a behavioral culture with standardized words and deeds

Since its establishment in 2001, the Youth Military Academy of our school has focused on the cultivation of innovative spirit and practical ability, and based on the age of children Characteristics, entertaining and entertaining, carefully designed and carried out a series of effective activities, allowing students to experience moral standards of conduct in the activities, cultivate good conduct in practice, and create a characteristic campus behavioral culture of our school with the Youth Military Academy as the carrier. The goal of developing good behavioral norms is self-discipline, the key is implementation, and the focus is persistence. From the location of the layout to the recess exercises without teacher supervision, from the placement of tables and stools to students’ recess activities, speech and behavior, our school’s student-oriented educational philosophy is always reflected in everything, cultivating students’ self-management, The ability to educate yourself. The school inspires and requires every student with "strict military style, hard-working will and character, civilized and courteous behavior, and team spirit of friendship and mutual assistance", making the Junior Military Academy a highlight of our school and at the same time standardizing Students' behavioral habits form a unique behavioral culture on campus.

Gather the campus spirit and inspire people with noble campus spiritual culture

Campus spiritual culture is the core of campus culture, the soul of the school, and the essence, personality and spiritual outlook of a school concentrated reflection. Campus spiritual culture mainly includes campus historical traditions and ideologies such as cultural concepts, values, and life concepts recognized by all teachers, students, and staff. It is a concentrated reflection of the essence, personality, and spiritual outlook of a school. Campus spiritual culture, also known as "school spirit", is concentrated in school spirit, teaching style, study style, class style and school interpersonal relationships.

1. Improve the school philosophy and unite people with first-class school goals

The school philosophy is the soul of the school and the soul of the school culture. It is not a simple external implantation process, nor does it only reflect the principal's school-running ideas, but a process of pursuing the essence of education. The construction of campus culture should form spiritual culture by refining the concept of running a school and educating people that reflects the requirements of the times. In the 46 years of running the school, Tofuying Primary School has persisted in carrying out in-depth education and teaching reforms with the school-running spirit and development attitude of "unity and cooperation, forge ahead, pragmatism and innovation". The new leadership team has proposed the goal of "running a school with soul, being a thoughtful teacher, and educating students with personality", and strives to explore "reviving the school through scientific research, promoting the school with characteristics, developing the school through innovation, and strengthening the school through quality". New ideas for work, continuous improvement of the school's educational strength and influence in educational innovation, and gradually formed the school's educational culture, highlighting the school's educational philosophy. Today, the school has established the school philosophy of "making teaching and scientific research a magic weapon to improve quality, making practice a life trait of teachers and students, making art a life pursuit of teachers and students, and making sports a living habit of teachers and students". The purpose of running the school is to lay the foundation for the development of students and educate people for social progress, and has formed the eight-character school motto of "morality and truth-seeking, wisdom and innovation" and the eight-character school spirit of "civilization, joy in learning, truth-seeking, and innovation".

2. Inspire people with the Dou Xiao sports spirit of "unity, hard work, and dedication"

The quality of campus culture comes from the quality of people and is ultimately determined by the quality of teachers. Without teachers' awareness, love and practice of culture, the principal's philosophy will be just a castle in the air, and the all-round development of students will be out of the question. Ushensky, an educator from the former Soviet Union, also believes that in education, “everything should be based on the personality of the educator...Only personality can affect the development and formation of personality.” Therefore, a high-grade campus culture cannot be separated from a A team of highly qualified teachers. Our school regards the overall improvement of teachers' comprehensive quality as the focus of campus spiritual and cultural construction. The whole school has issued a call for all teachers to follow the physical education teachers around them as examples and learn the "Douxiao Sports Spirit". Despite the severe shortage of physical education teachers in our school and the lack of student resources, we are still able to achieve impressive results. The reason is that Douxiao physical education teachers have a spirit of refusing to admit defeat, which is the Douxiao sports spirit of "unity, hard work and dedication". Faced with the critical juncture of the sudden rise of other schools, the new leadership team put forward the slogan "I have what others don't have, and I have specialties when others have it", and decided to use Shaolin martial arts as a breakthrough to dig deeper into the connotation of sports and make our school's sports characteristics even brighter. ,Wonderful. All teachers are required to play the role of role models in terms of their mental outlook, moral cultivation, work style, knowledge level, appearance, speech and behavior, and daily life, and strive to be a new type of bean primary school with unique cultural charm and popular among students. teacher.

Campus culture construction is a systematic project and a long-term work. Strengthening the construction of campus culture is not only the need for school education, but also the needs of the times and the needs of society. If a school wants to create characteristics and establish a brand, campus culture is an important construction project.
