Debate on "Advantages and Disadvantages of Team Competition"

Primary school curriculum reform has been implemented in China for many years. With the deepening of teaching reform, teachers have gradually explored a new teaching method-group cooperative learning. Group cooperative learning is a teaching activity based on cooperative learning group, which systematically uses the dynamic factors in teaching and the interaction between teachers, students and students to promote students' learning, and takes the group's achievements as the evaluation standard to achieve teaching objectives. Group cooperative learning has two forms: competition and cooperation, which has changed the one-way communication between teachers and students in traditional collective teaching. Teachers monopolize the main resources of the whole classroom, leaving students in a very passive situation. Therefore, students' initiative and creativity in learning can be brought into full play, which is an efficient teaching form. Competition and cooperation are a pair of basic categories involving interpersonal relationships. Cooperative learning does not exclude competitive learning, and students also have two relationships in learning. Generally speaking, students always hope that their learning ability will be recognized by teachers and classmates and get a good evaluation. Through learning competition, students can enhance their self-confidence and thus turn it into learning motivation. Competition is the basic form of learning competition. The essence of competition is comparison. If there is comparison, there will be discrimination. The result of identification is to find out their own advantages and disadvantages, which will enable students to improve their goals and overcome the blindness of learning. Learning competition can also promote cooperative learning and improve students' thirst for knowledge, so learning competition is beneficial to students' learning. Marx pointed out in the Law of Social Development that "there is no development without competition". Therefore, students should "learn to compete" and "dare to compete" to cultivate students to learn to survive, develop and adapt to modern society in competition. This is the objective requirement of modern education in the socialist market economy of reform and opening up. The development of socialist commodity economy requires people to have competitive consciousness and the ability and quality to engage in competitive activities. Therefore, teachers should correctly guide students to compete and learn to compete. For this reason, the leaders, members and all teachers of the research group in our school actively participated in the thinking and exploration of this topic, and achieved certain results in guiding and cultivating students' competitive consciousness and competitiveness. Competition must follow the law of students' physical and mental growth, and design different competition contents and requirements according to students' cognitive level and operational ability at different ages and places. Correctly and reasonably evaluating students' learning competition can not only understand students' learning situation, but also stimulate their learning enthusiasm and promote their all-round development. Therefore, it is of great theoretical and practical significance to evaluate and explain the competition of middle school students in cooperative learning of research groups. Teachers have also made new thoughts and explorations on this. 1. How to evaluate the knowledge and skills gained through competitive cooperative learning is a new teaching method and means. Its fundamental purpose is to enable students to acquire the necessary knowledge, basic methods and necessary application skills for adaptation, future life and further development. Confucius, an ancient educator, said, "Knowing is not as good as being kind, and being kind is not as good as being happy". He believes that good learning effect is not only related to learning motivation, positive and optimistic learning attitude and relaxed learning mood are very important to learning efficiency, which can produce the effect of "getting twice the result with half the effort". Through learning competition, students' self-confidence can be enhanced, which can be transformed into motivation for learning, and at the same time, it can stimulate students' emotional response, so that students are refreshed, active in thinking, full of interest and eager for knowledge. Finally, it achieved good learning results and acquired corresponding knowledge and skills. Learning competition is a means to motivate students to strive for good grades by using competition consciousness. No matter what methods are adopted, the starting point and purpose are to acquire corresponding knowledge and skills. Therefore, measuring competitive behavior is mainly to evaluate the effect of knowledge and skills acquired by students. If we compete only for the sake of competition, or even mistakenly believe that as long as competition is introduced into the learning process, the educational and teaching goals will be naturally achieved, that is a wrong behavior of "giving up the basics and chasing the end". In the evaluation, we should follow the basic concept of curriculum standards and take the knowledge and skills objectives of this period as the standard to examine the effect of students mastering basic knowledge and skills. At the same time, the evaluation should combine the actual background and the process of solving problems, present the evaluation results in a qualitative and quantitative way, give priority to qualitative description, pay full attention to students' personality differences, and give full play to the guiding and inspiring role of evaluation. 2. How to evaluate the methods used in the competition process If the goal of knowledge and skills dimension is to let students learn, and the goal of process and method dimension is to let students learn, then the specific goal of curriculum reform clearly puts forward that "the current situation of curriculum implementation is too much emphasis on learning, rote learning and mechanical training, as well as students' ability to collect and process information, acquire new knowledge, analyze and solve problems, communicate and cooperate". In group cooperative learning, competition is often carried out in groups, such as competition between groups. In the competition scene, when every member of the collective works hard for a common goal, it often produces the experience of "honor and disgrace and * * *", which strengthens the internal centripetal force and cooperation spirit, and also understands the formalization process of knowledge and the methods of learning various subjects. The evaluation of students' learning should pay attention not only to the results of students' learning, but also to their changes and development in the learning process. When evaluating the learning process, we should pay attention to students' participation, cooperation and communication consciousness, and also pay attention to the learning thinking process of learning. Participatory evaluation should be based on whether students can actively participate in learning activities. The evaluation of students' awareness of cooperation and communication should be based on whether students actively cooperate with their classmates, whether they are aware of their role in the group, and whether they are willing to exchange their ideas and aspects with their peers. In the form of competition, under the constraint of mutually recognized school rules and disciplines, learning competition is carried out. If they blatantly seize all the learning achievements that belong to others by coercive methods, it is not a learning competition, but a learning struggle. Therefore, the evaluation of students' learning process and methods should reflect the course of students' development and progress, and attach importance to it. Pay attention to the degree of students' participation, and examine whether students can actively participate in learning competitions in many aspects. At the same time, we should also pay attention to students' thinking process, and through the evaluation of learning process and methods, promote the competition to continue to develop and progress in a good direction, so as to continuously improve and promote the competition from uneven to step by step, so as to achieve the role of "promoting the competition by evaluation". 3. How to evaluate the emotions, attitudes and values in the competition? Any teaching that separates knowledge, skills, process methods, emotions, attitudes and values cannot promote the sound development of students. In group cooperative learning, through the form of learning competition, students' positive, hard-working and serious learning attitude is cultivated and formed, and there are clear learning objectives. Approaching this group of students, we are not without anxiety to find that with the increasingly heavy competitive pressure, some students have appeared morbid "bad competition" psychology and behavior, which not only hurts themselves, but also brings some negative effects to society. Therefore, it is necessary to guide students to establish correct emotions, attitudes and values in the competition by formulating correct evaluation standards, and let students know that competition is the basic form of learning competition, and the essence of competition is comparison. If there is comparison, there will be identification, and the result of identification is to find your own advantages and disadvantages. This will enable students to improve their goals and overcome blindness in their studies. Let students realize that competition is a contest of wisdom. In the competition, they should learn to show themselves, appreciate others, be humble, make friends with opponents, learn from others' advantages and make up for their own shortcomings. Only in this way can they have a chance to win, and use this as a standard to evaluate their emotional attitudes and values in the competition, establish a good sense of competition, cultivate a good attitude and ability to compete, and win a place in the future social development. Modern society, with continuous progress due to competition, is full of vitality due to competition. Competition is the development that you dare to chase after me. Competition makes backwardness become advanced, and society follows this eternal competition law and moves towards modernity and the future. For individuals, everyone has the opportunity to participate in the competition, and the result will inevitably be the survival of the fittest, ensuring social equity. The process of competition is to motivate individuals to exert their enthusiasm according to their own abilities. Competition is not only the requirement of the times, but also a challenge to human nature. Therefore, it is of positive and important practical significance to cultivate students' correct sense of competition and behavior. Analyzing and evaluating learning competition from different angles is of guiding significance to competition learning and is conducive to the implementation of healthy competition in teaching. Therefore, our school puts forward the topic of "Evaluation and theoretical exposition of cooperative learning competition for primary school students" for research and exploration. Second, the concept explanation competition is an activity established by individuals or groups in order to overwhelm or defeat each other's psychological state and behavior, and its purpose is to achieve established goals or obtain superior evaluation and good results. Competition can avoid raising the enthusiasm of participants, stimulate potential and enhance the internal drive to achieve goals. Winning the game will produce a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction, which will further enhance confidence. Third, the theoretical basis 1, psychological principles Psychology believes that the purpose of evaluation is to comprehensively examine students' learning situation and stimulate their enthusiasm for learning. Through evaluation, we can correctly evaluate our own learning level, find out our own advantages and disadvantages, enable students to improve their goals, overcome blindness in competition and promote all-round development. 2. Educational Principles Rogers advocates that students should give full play to their potential abilities through competition and be able to study happily and creatively. This requires teachers and students, students should be equal and inclusive, integrate into the group and learn to compete. Learn to express yourself in groups. In the competition, organizers and participants should actively participate in it, so as to have a chance to win. 3. Principles of Modern Education Modern society is a competitive society. Let children learn to compete from an early age, learn to stand out from the crowd, and enter the society in the future, so as to adapt to the rhythm of society and keep up with the pace of the times. Social diversification requires talents with different personalities and specialties to put innovative ideas into practice, and the only criterion for testing is performance in practice, which must become an inevitable form of selection through severe competition. Therefore, only by cultivating students' good sense of competition and learning to compete from an early age can we unite others and create a better future in the group and future social groups. Fourthly, the goal of the experiment is 1, so that every student can develop in the competition and learn to compete. In cooperative learning, we should cultivate and enhance students' competitive consciousness, learn to compete, learn to express in groups, and evaluate themselves correctly through competition. Teachers should create a harmonious, democratic and relaxed educational environment for students, constantly cultivate their competitive strength and let them compete in a friendly and confident atmosphere. Fully realize that competition is not "you are weak and I am strong" or "you die and live", but learning from others' advantages and making up for your own shortcomings. It is "self-interest" and "mutual benefit * * * to win", and the progress of the group can bring personal progress. In the competition, we should overcome bad mentality and avoid vicious competition. Cultivate students' strong interest in learning, actively participate in learning, form tolerant and kind moral quality, and win a place in the future social competition. 2. Explore, update and optimize the teaching mode. In group cooperative learning, in order to achieve the goal of cooperative learning, groups and group members will compete in learning, but at the same time, students are more likely to suppress other students or study groups in order to express their individuality and creativity in competitive learning. Therefore, in group cooperative learning, we should not only give full play to students' personality and creativity, but also enhance students' teamwork ability to avoid vicious competition in group cooperative learning. When designing and implementing the specific forms and measures of competitive education, teachers should explore, update and optimize the teaching mode, give play to their practical ability and ensure the guiding role of healthy competition. 3. Further strengthen and consolidate students' dominant position. Bruner, an educational psychologist, believes that learning is an active process. Students have a strong desire for autonomous learning and great potential for autonomous development. Teachers should give full play to the role of mobilizing students' subjectivity in the learning process, consolidate students' subjectivity, and further exert students' initiative and creativity. 4, improve the quality of teachers in group cooperative learning, there is cooperation and competition. The competition greatly mobilized and stimulated students' enthusiasm and creativity. Teachers should pay attention to restrain and eliminate vicious competition through guidance and encouragement, turn vicious competition into benign competition, and make competition a driving force for students to learn and a means of positive personality. This puts forward higher requirements for teachers' comprehensive quality. Therefore, we will change teachers' concept of education and teaching, establish a correct view of students and quality, and cultivate a team of high-quality teachers. 5. Experimental principle 1. Principle of integrating theory with practice: In the process of experiment, adhere to integrating theory with practice, invite experts to report, reduce the blindness of experiment and improve the effect of experiment. 2. The principle of wholeness: strengthen the cooperation of all subjects, form a comprehensive nuclear force, give full play to collective strength, improve the overall effect, and cultivate students' comprehensive quality. 3. The principle of mutual trust: teachers, students and students should trust each other and trust their peers' abilities. 4. Competition principle: the competition between members and groups should be sincere, polite and friendly. 5. Principle of personality development: Students enjoy a high degree of autonomy, give full play to their subjective initiative, and cultivate a correct sense of competition and innovative spirit. The experimental process of intransitive verbs (1) In the preparatory stage of experimental research (2008. 1—2008.3), theoretical study was strengthened, educational and teaching materials about "competition evaluation criteria" at home and abroad were widely collected, and the project scheme was demonstrated and revised, and project investigation and research were carried out. 1, set up the leading organization of experimental subject and draw up the experimental scheme. 2. Determine the experimental classes and teachers, and establish basic information files. 3. Organize experimental teachers to carry out training and distribute relevant learning materials to improve teachers' understanding of "competition evaluation standards and theoretical exposition". 4. Through the investigation, we can understand the performance of students' competitive mode and psychology in the current classroom teaching mode, so as to compare with the experiment.
