Uncovering the Challenges Faced by Primary School Science Teachers in Implementing Experimental Teaching:A Data Analysis Based on a Questionnaire Survey Conducted in Western China

Primary school science is a discipline grounded in experiments,and experimental teaching holds paramount significance in primary school science education in China.Nevertheless,the implementation problems of experimental teaching are frequently disregarded.This research endeavors to disclose the concrete challenges encountered by primary school science teachers in the western region of China during the implementation of experimental teaching,analyze their implications,and put forward corresponding mitigatory measures.Based on a questionnaire survey regarding the current state of primary school science experimental teaching in 21 areas of western China,it is unveiled that primary school science teachers in the western region of China confront deficiencies in scientific professional attainment,the necessity to enhance the attitude towards experimental teaching,and a partial shortage of experimental teaching resources.These hardships result in the deterioration of the quality of experimental teaching,the attenuation of students’learning interests,and the exacerbation of teachers’job burnout.Hence,measures should be initiated in aspects such as teacher training,resource development,and enhanced emphasis to assist primary school science teachers in the western region of China in implementing experimental teaching more effectively and elevating the quality of primary school science experimental teaching.

Primary and secondary school mental health teachers in professional identity of intervention programs

To explore the impact of teacher training on the professional identity of primary and secondary school mental health teachers, this study conducted a half-month professional development training program to 54 primary and secondary school mental health teachers, and performed measurement on the professional identity of the teachers in the experimental group and the control group with “Teachers’ Professional Identity Questionnaire”. The result shows that after the training there is a significant improvement in the professional identity of the teachers in the experimental group, and the teachers’ scores on the four dimensions of profession identity: the sense of role, the professional behavioral tendency, the occupational values, and the sense of belonging, all increased significantly. This indicates that the curriculum intervention for the primary and secondary school mental health teachers could effectively improve the teachers’ professional identity.

A Research of Pre-service Teachers' Lead-in Strategies in English Teaching

Lead-in, referring to the teaching activities at the very beginning of a class, is one of the most basic steps in English classroom teaching.

Based on the previous literature about lead-in, the author first discusses the importance and functions of lead-in, and then analyzes some lead-in strategies on the basis of the 17 teaching cases of pre-service English teachers.

Impact of Gender and Working Environment on the Level of State Anxiety among Primary and Middle school Teachers in China

State anxiety has become serious among primary and middle school teachers in China. By using stratified random sampling, we selected 2790 primary and middle school teachers as participants. They were from seven regions of China, among them 2278 were valid subjects. Constructed on the basis of anxiety content, the Teachers’ State Anxiety Questionnaire (TSAQ) was used in the investigation. The result of the survey shows that primary and middle school teachers are generally affected by state anxiety;further analysis indicates that the prevalence of state anxiety is relatively higher among male teachers, teachers from key middle schools, teachers working more than 10 hours a day, and teachers loaded with additional task as head teachers. This is directly connected with China’s national situation, teaching envi-ronment, discrepancies in teachers themselves, and their own ability of self-regulation.

“双减”背景下中小学教师的工作“负荷”与“减负”治理的实践路径

中小学教师超负荷工作已是常态,其日常工作的基本样态是工作内容面广、工作分散点多、工作时间线长。这种超负荷的工作样态不仅影响着教师的职业生命力,也影响着我国整个基础教育提质增效和“双减”政策落实的成效。因此,教师“减负”治理迫在眉睫。教师“减负”治理应是政府、学校和家长等多主体联合参与的持续过程,特别是政府应该灵活调配教师编制,补充人力资源供给;明确学校的权责边界,让教学回归主业;为教师提供保障机制,缓解教师工作压力;有效利用信息技术,提高家校沟通效率。

大中小学思政课教师一体化建设的核心要义、现实挑战及推进策略

习近平总书记强调,“要把统筹推进大中小学思政课一体化建设作为一项重要工程”。作为大中小学思政课一体化建设的重要抓手和关键环节,大中小学思政课教师一体化建设应被高度重视、全面理解和科学把握。在核心要义方面,大中小学思政课教师一体化建设注重恪守立德树人的价值导向,遵循协同育人的理念指导,强调“六要素养”的队伍锻造。就其面临的现实挑战而言,当前存在一些思政课教师一体化建设意识不够、教师配备不足、教师素质能力不齐、教师培训和协同不强等问题。推进大中小学思政课教师一体化建设,要在打通各学段思政课教师队伍意识、配备、素质、培训、协同、管理之间的环节上下功夫、见实效。

小学教师数字素养水平体系的建构与实证检验

提升教师数字素养是推进教育数字化转型的重要环节。基于教育部颁布的《教师数字素养》教育行业标准,借鉴国际经验,建构了小学教师数字素养水平体系,并应用该水平体系对225位小学教师进行了实证检验。结果表明:小学教师数字素养处于中等水平,具备基本的数字化工具使用技能,年龄较轻、职称较低、学历较高的小学教师数字素养水平相对更高,教龄、培训时长是影响小学教师数字素养水平的主要因素。建议培养教师综合、创造性应用数字技术的能力,建立“反向传帮带”机制以及充分发挥教师数字技术共同体的效应,以有效提升小学教师的数字素养水平。

中小学教师人工智能教育应用适应性的影响因素研究

以ChatGPT为代表的新一代人工智能快速发展,对中小学教师如何适应其教育应用提出了更高要求.通过文献梳理和理论基础探寻,构建中小学教师人工智能教育应用适应性影响因素假设模型.研究结果显示:中小学教师普遍具有使用人工智能改进教学的意愿,但人工智能教育应用的外部环境支持存在不足;整体适应程度中等偏上、存在群体差异;感知有用性、感知易用性和初始信任直接或间接对中小学教师人工智能教育应用适应性产生正向影响,其中初始信任在感知易用性与心理适应之间起部分中介作用;能力适应是行为适应最直接的、唯一的影响因素,且相对而言作用强度最大;中小学教师人工智能教育应用适应性的影响方向与作用路径为:心理适应→环境适应→能力适应→行为适应.为增强中小学教师人工智能教育应用适应性,提出“从‘心’出发→‘境’中造‘能’→化‘能’为‘行’”递进式推进策略,使利用人工智能优化教育教学真正成为中小学教师的常态行为.

新时代高质量小学教师教育体系重建:为了儿童的全面发展

新时代高质量小学教师教育体系是实现小学教师教育供给侧与需求侧趋于平衡的高质量,并最终指向为儿童的全面发展。它将小学教育作为一门科学与专业的教育,是一种整体上思考小学教师教育活动运行规律的方法论,是“体”与“系”及其相互关系的有机统一。新时代我国小学教师教育体系存在的问题包括当前小学教师教育体系无法满足我国新时代教育战略需求,无法满足中国特色教师教育体系建设需求。基于此,研究提出中国新时代高质量小学教师教育体系重建的路径:因地制宜构建多元化多类型多层次的专门小学教师培养机构体系;提高师范生的招生质量,确保新时代小学教师教育体系的生源质量;加强小学教师教育者队伍建设,为新时代小学教师教育体系提供师资保障;加强学科建设,重塑以高等知识为基础的小学教师教育课程建设;重构“理论-实践”相互激活的新时代小学教师教育教学模式;通过协同提质,重构新时代小学教师教育体系的组织保障机制。
