Create a warm office environment and be beautiful while working

——One of the series to enhance teachers’ professional pride in Shuyang

Text/Teaching is not habitual

Introduction: Teachers are a living thing between the past and the future link. Its career, though ordinary on the surface, was one of the greatest in history. ——Ushensky

The office is an important place for teachers to work. Creating a warm, comfortable, beautiful and generous office can create a harmonious and comfortable working environment for teachers, which will help teachers improve their work efficiency and create a positive atmosphere. An upward working atmosphere encourages teachers to improve their self-cultivation, thereby promoting the development of education to a higher level. To get a glimpse of the "educational quality" of a school, just look at the teachers' offices; to understand education in a region, see "what kind of office" do most teachers in the region work in!

The elegant and beautiful placement of office items reflects the cultural atmosphere, aesthetic taste and artistic characteristics of education. There are many ways to layout an office. A school office that is bright, open, generous, elegant, practical, fresh, clean, tidy, and has a strong cultural atmosphere will also leave a deep impression on visitors. Office decoration doesn’t have to be luxurious, but it shouldn’t be too shabby either. Floors, ceilings, walls, layout, colors, lighting, instrument mirrors, reading racks, file cabinets, wash basins, kettles, bookcases, green plants, consumables, etc. must all be paid attention to. Brainstorm and combine different ideas to create a A "harmonious space". The purchase of office supplies, even a chair, "shows the school's care for teachers." I remember a former colleague in the office who was tall and slightly fat. Once he sat down on the "uniformly provided bench in the school". Both front legs of the bench were broken. He also sat down on the ground and walked lamely. Several days. The items purchased by the school must stand the test of time.

The office is an important living space for teachers. Preparing lessons, correcting homework, talking to students, and communicating with parents are all done here. This is where teachers work silently. The "forward position" of education is the classroom, and the "main position" of education is the office.

When the school purchases office items, it cannot just be done by the logistics director reporting it, the principal agreeing, and the accountant paying the money. In terms of design, teachers’ opinions should be solicited and a design that most teachers “think is good” should be selected. The general direction is set first, and the details can be improved during the layout process. For example, the art teacher's office can be decorated with some calligraphy, paintings, plaster statues, etc., the music teacher's office can be purchased with several grand pianos, and the physical education teacher's office can be placed with more sports equipment to highlight the characteristics of the subject.

In ancient times, when Hua Mulan joined the army, she bought horses in the east market, saddles and harems in the west market, bridles in the south market, and long whips in the north market. Nowadays, when teachers work in office, they can’t just “bring their own teaching aids” for everything, right? In particular, in online classes during the epidemic, the problem of "teacher equipment" is particularly prominent. Online classes are suddenly "dropped" while online classes are taking place. Teachers on one end of the line are "busy" and students on the other end are "extremely anxious." Therefore, the education authorities must “update teaching aids in a planned manner”, which should be part of the modernization of education. Computers in many departments are "obsolete after two or three years of use", while teachers' computers are almost "used as they can be". This is irresponsible for education. How can this reflect the modernization of "education in a great country"?

Of course, the school is a special place. In addition to the "hard" investment in the office, we should also pay attention to the "soft" investment!

First of all, it is the cultural arrangement. For example, you can post a slogan in a conspicuous place in the office: Don't treat young people as empty bottles that you fill, treat them as candles waiting for you to light; criticism should be like spring rain that nourishes the branches and leaves without damaging the roots; teacher quality - Keep your eyes wide open to discover more of students' strengths, and narrow your eyes less to pick on students' shortcomings; erudition, patience, and tolerance are the most basic qualities of a teacher; face today with a smile; the art of a teacher does not lie in the ability to teach, but in encouraging, Arouse, inspire, etc.

Secondly, create a strong reading atmosphere. Each office can see new journals or monographs every month, and set up a "drifting book" signed by the principal personally, so that some good books can be circulated among various offices, making students, classes, and books the "main topic of the office" ".

We can't all pool money together, either for houses, stocks, or parents. This is not conducive to the professional growth of teachers.

Third, we often carry out some "small office activities" to create a "home" feeling, so that colleagues can be more united, collaborate, help each other, and jointly shoulder the mission of teaching and educating people.

Fourth, create a teacher’s recess culture. When teachers take breaks between classes, they don’t necessarily have to prepare any “foreign” things like “coffee”. But at least there are tea, throat lozenges, fruits, etc. to provide the teacher with some necessary "adjustments" during the "intermission". In this way, teachers can also "temporarily forget" about being annoyed by students in class! From a psychological point of view, eating or drinking something can help relieve anxiety.

Fifth, "happy events" such as office teachers' birthdays, awards, or article publications should also have a sense of ritual and human touch. Prepare some candies and the like to distribute, which will also help create a good office environment. .

Sixth, giving students a "cool mat to sit on" in summer and a "warm seat to sit on" in winter also reflects the "caring" for teachers. Caring about teachers means caring about education. This truth must be understood by everyone. The emphasis on education should be reflected in the details, and no amount of care can be taken too much.

In short, creating a teacher office atmosphere requires everyone to work together, pool their wisdom, brainstorm, and unite to make every office the "most beautiful office."

The report of the 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out: "Education is the foundation for developing science and technology and cultivating talents. It plays a leading and overall role in modernization and must be placed in a strategic position of priority development." Harmonious education must Starting from the "harmonious office", otherwise how can this "priority development strategic position" be reflected? With so much verbosity, everyone must be a little "counted". Come on, let's shout another slogan together: Decorate the teacher's office and let teachers celebrate "Teacher's Day" every day!

The century-old plan is based on education, and the plan for education is teacher-oriented. How can a nation that can't even manage a teacher's office have the right to talk about "valuing education"?

Thoughts:

1. Place several pots of flowers and plants in the teacher’s office to create a radiant and uplifting atmosphere of life and cultivate a good interest in life.

2. Place educational magazines and periodicals in the teacher’s office area to create a reading atmosphere. Students should not be allowed to enter the office. It is often seen that teachers are “not surfing the Internet in front of the computer or using their mobile phones to refresh the screen.” Reading in the office, the power of role models is endless.

3. Under the premise of modernizing education, relevant departments must not only "upgrade" classroom teaching aids regularly, but also update teachers' teaching aids in a timely manner.

4. Improve the working environment of teachers as an important indicator in the evaluation of "national civilized cities", and purchase items must be strictly controlled.

5. Ask professors from the “Urban Planning Major” in universities to design the office layout according to the laws of “environmental science”. For example, the seat cannot directly face the door or toilet door; there should be a backrest (wall or cabinet) behind the seat, and cannot be carried on the door or walkway; the front of the seat cannot be close to the wall (the buffer zone is not enough). Seats cannot be behind copiers or computers.

6. Actively improve teachers’ office environment. Relevant departments must allocate a certain amount of funds every year to improve teachers’ office conditions.

7. While building teachers’ offices, strictly limit the specifications of the principal’s office, prohibit the principal from setting up a “suite with a bed”, and prohibit the principal’s office from being “oversized”.

8. In addition to advocating environmental protection, office decoration and layout should also pay attention to fire prevention, moisture prevention, and leakage prevention to ensure the safety of teachers.

9. The office prepares some snacks such as tea, fruits, and coffee as a simple snack for teachers during the half-time break.

10. People who are together are called "reunion", people who are together are called a "team", and people who are together but are not together are called a "gang". The creation of office soft culture is also an issue that Shuyang education must consider.
