How to improve the current teaching methods of ideological and moral courses in primary schools

Moral education is an important part of school education, and students' moral education is the focus of moral education. It is of great significance to apply appropriate teaching methods and be close to the reality of students' lives for the current ideological and moral education of primary and secondary school students.

First, the current ideological and moral education of primary and secondary school students the main problems

At present, under the influence of different social forms and different adult thoughts, the problem that the ideological and moral education of primary and secondary school students lags behind the requirements of economic development and quality education is more prominent. The main reasons are as follows.

(A) the lack of understanding of the importance of moral education leads to the softening of moral education in schools.

Under the current educational model with the enrollment rate as the actual standard, many school leaders and teachers attach great differences to the enrollment rate and moral education. Moral education is often slow in strengthening, but the momentum of one-sided pursuit of enrollment rate in control is increasing, and school moral education has become a soft index of "saying important, doing secondary, not busy".

(B) the negative factors under the new situation have a negative impact on school ideological and moral education.

Limited by age and experience, primary and secondary school students have poor ability to identify, judge and resist. They are still immature in distinguishing right from wrong and good from bad. They are easily influenced by some foreign things and ideas, and even regard the bad as good. They are more willing to accept some bad atmosphere of grandstanding, stimulating publicity and even decay, which also makes traditional model characters lose their appeal to them. Some people even think that moral education activities such as "learning from Lei Feng and cultivating new styles" are superficial. From the whole society, the lack of support and cooperation for ideological quality education in schools has also affected the smooth development of moral education to some extent. For example, in some places, amusement halls, Internet cafes and other places of entertainment are located around schools, ignoring management regulations and students' physical and mental health, inducing students to skip classes, play games all night, surf the Internet, and get in touch with some violent and pornographic things, which has a bad influence on students' ideological and moral character.

(C) A sound and scientific school moral education system has not yet been formed.

On the whole, the goal of moral education in most schools is not accurate, and the level and sequence of moral education content are not strong. On the one hand, the relevant contents in the current textbooks are out of step with the current orientation of moral education in primary and secondary schools, such as "letting primary school students form moral values and outlook on life". This slogan is more empty than reality, and it is difficult to form practical results. On the other hand, the deployment at the operational level is weak, some lack unified planning and long-term deployment, some are fragmented, and some moral education content does not meet the quality needs of students, which is contrary to their physiology and psychology, so that students' "rebellious psychology" continues to grow. As a result, the more teachers talk, the greater the students' rebellious mood, which ultimately reduces the effect of moral education.

Second, ways to improve the teaching methods of ideological and moral courses in primary and secondary schools

(A) to guide students to correctly evaluate themselves

Primary and secondary schools are a special stage of life. Primary and secondary school students are in an important period of rapid physical and mental development, and it is also a critical period for the formation of ideological and moral values. When we carry out ideological and moral education, we should proceed from the reality of students, choose vivid examples, current affairs news, or songs, movies, books and other content related to teaching materials to stimulate students' interest. Let students enter the real life as explorers, and truly feel that politics is around us, thus inducing students to be good at observing and thinking positively. In the process of exploring new knowledge, teachers, students and students open their hearts to each other, exchange and accept, absorb tolerance, exchange and cooperate, and share interactively, forming a democratic, open and harmonious classroom relationship. Only when all students are involved and everyone moves can we talk about learning knowledge, cultivating ability and cultivating spiritual character, and then accept ourselves happily, clarify our development direction and finally make appropriate behavior choices. (B) to teach students to adjust their emotions

The adaptive function of emotions basically serves to improve and perfect people's survival and living conditions. In the big family of school, the form of emotional adaptation function of primary and secondary school students has changed greatly. When students are in a positive and optimistic mood, they tend to pay attention to the bright side of things, study hard, be positive, have a kind attitude, be ready to help others at any time, and bravely shoulder heavy burdens. Negative emotional state often makes primary and secondary school students have pessimistic consciousness, lose their thirst for knowledge, and are more likely to be aggressive to other students. In this regard, teachers should find out and guide them in time. For students who can't control themselves and are easily excited and angry, guide them to transfer their thinking activities from negative and unpleasant emotions to another emotional state, so as to free themselves from bad emotions. We should attach importance to cultivating students' independence and self-control ability, so that students can understand that they can control their emotions well and make their emotions, attitudes and values develop in the direction we expect.

(C) to give primary and secondary school students understanding and respect

Respecting students is not a method or attitude, but an educational concept, which enables students to gain self-esteem from the respect of others. Everyone wants to be appreciated by others, including primary and secondary school students. Therefore, we should consciously play the role of "affirmation" so that students can experience the "happiness" of success and feel that they are capable and capable. Only when teachers impress and infect students with heartfelt feelings can students have emotional connection with teachers and "love their teachers and believe in their ways". Teachers' encouraging evaluation of students' "happiness" can make students see their creative talents, thus enhancing their interest in learning and stimulating their strong desire for further study. For teachers, they should walk into the classroom with a smile on their faces; In the face of students' questions, regardless of whether the students answer correctly or not, students should be allowed to sit down with dignity; Create opportunities for them and let them have a successful experience; We should respect students' choices and don't jump to conclusions about their choices. These are the direct manifestations of respect and responsibility for students.

(D) Moral education of primary and secondary school students should always be persistent.

Ideological education is a project to mold people's souls, and moral education should be persistent and persistent. For primary and middle school students, they are enthusiastic but irrational, pursuing truth, goodness and beauty, but their ability to distinguish right from wrong is not strong. We should realize that the moral education of primary and secondary school students is a long-term project and an arduous task, which can only be completed through the relay of teachers' responsibility and love. No matter what a healthy student does in the future, it is not a bad thing. In the process of teaching, we should do it with the idea of combining theory with practice. Educator makarenko once said: "There is a small gap between students' thoughts and behaviors, which needs to be filled by practice. "The ideology and morality of primary and secondary school students are not cultivated overnight. It is impossible for every student to understand and understand a class, and it is not advisable to do it overnight. Only through repeated practice can we form good moral behavior habits. Therefore, we must adhere to the established educational goals and make unremitting efforts to achieve the goal of "accumulating salmon for thousands of miles and rivers for rivers and seas".
