Exploration of the Professional Development of Rural Primary School Teachers in Western Guangdong Area

粤西地区农村小学教师在专业发展上面临的窘况,是欠发达地区农村基础教育的一个缩影。粤西地区农村小学存在师资配备不合理、教师职业忠诚度较低、教育教学能力有待提高、培训与科研活动缺乏等问题,提供政策支持、更新教育理论、改革教育方法与手段、调整培养机制是促进农村小学教师专业能力提高的有效策略。要实现城乡教育的均衡化,在农村小学形成一支"下得去、留得住、教得好"的师资队伍,切实为教师的专业发展与自我价值实现创造良好的环境,欠发达地区农村的基础教育才能逐步发展壮大,农村人口的素质才能提高,新农村建设才可能有智力支持和人才保障。
