The Changing Trend of Traditional Teachers' Roles

The biggest change in the curriculum reform is the change of teachers' roles, which is mainly reflected in the following four aspects:

1, the teacher changed from imparting knowledge to promoting students' learning.

2. Teachers change from managers to guides.

3. Teachers have changed from evaluators of students' grades to defenders of students' mental health and guides of students' development direction.

4. Teachers have changed from "teachers" to conscious learners and researchers.

Core idea:

The core idea of the new curriculum reform is: everything is for the development of students.

"Everything" here refers to the formulation and application of all teaching strategies and methods in schools, which should be people-oriented and promote the healthy growth of students; The "student" here obviously refers to every student in the school; The "development" here means that the education, teaching and all extracurricular activities of the school should aim at students' lifelong development, which is conducive to students' basic survival ability in school-the ability to learn independently, the ability to cooperate with others, the ability to collect and process information, the ability to learn to do things, and the ability to survive independently. To ensure that our next generation can survive and develop in the future society. So someone simply wrote this sentence: Everything is for all students.

It is important to note here that although the slogan "Everything is for students" is beautiful, it will be the greatest misfortune for China students if it is understood as "teachers can replace everything for students" and "all students' behaviors must be carried out under the instruction of teachers". Now many principals of so-called key middle schools always proudly introduce to the outside world: "My school is completely closed ..." When I hear this, I always have a strange feeling in my heart. Is it necessary to transform a natural person into a social person's education, but can the best young people be blocked in a "closed" campus?

Australian futurist Eliad once said, "If you don't live in the future today, then your tomorrow will live in the past." Therefore, China's education policy should not aim at cultivating perfect people ―― training every ordinary person to be "a lifelong capitalist", "a Lei Feng-style person" and "a builder and successor of the socialist cause", but should first complete the main task of basic education: make every effort to train qualified citizens.
