Chapter 206: The Five Deadly Sins of Contemporary Language Education
Xiao Fei stepped onto the stage.
There was a commotion among the students in the audience, and the sleepy students became excited and whispered in a whisper.
"Xiao Fei went up."
"Xiao Fei is going to speak."
"Wake up, don't sleep."
"I hope Xiao Fei won't talk about some nonsense and no nutrition, and it can give me a little real inspiration."
"Xiao Fei will definitely not let us down, he is not the kind of person who follows the rules."
The students exchanged their heads and ears, talking and laughing, and there was a "buzzing" commotion in the auditorium, which made Zhu Wangnian frown for a while.
However, before he could scold, the students sitting below began to applaud spontaneously.
A tidal wave of applause rang out.
At this time, Xiao Fei came to the back of the lectern, he tried the sound on the microphone, scanned the audience with a smile, and quietly waited for the applause to stop.
Zhu Wangnian saw that Xiao Fei did not open the speech prepared by the school, and his heart was stunned, it seems that Xiao Fei is not ready to speak according to the script arranged by the school.
However, there is nothing he can do about it.
The students in the audience finally stopped clapping.
Xiao Fei said into the microphone: "Thank you for your warm applause!" Does it hurt to pat your hand? He thought he would be nervous when he went on stage, but when he came on stage, he found that he was relaxed and acted relaxed and casual.
There was a good-natured chuckle from the audience.
"Originally, I was going to follow the prepared transcript for my speech. But when I got on the stage and saw how enthusiastically everyone applauded me, I suddenly changed my mind. I plan to give my first public lecture on the topic of "The Misunderstandings of Chinese Language Education and the Rich Charm of the Chinese Language" without the transcript of my speech. Xiao Fei said.
Zhu Wangnian and Li Tangqiu glanced at each other, and they both saw surprise and disappointment in each other's eyes.
Xiao Fei actually wants to talk about the misunderstanding of exam-oriented language education? Is this a fire on the current education system? The situation won't get out of hand today, will it?
The students sitting in the audience fell silent.
Xiao Fei actually wants to fire at the current Chinese education, which makes the students very excited, and everyone wants to hear what Xiao Fei has to say next.
"The young man has momentum, personality and thought!"
Ye Fangwei nodded appreciatively to the person next to him.
Xiao Fei's words immediately captured the hearts of everyone on the scene. He continued: "The current language education is very abnormal, and it has seriously fallen into the quagmire of utilitarianism. Generally speaking, there are five major mistakes, which we can summarize into five deadly sins. ”
Listening to Xiao Fei's words, Li Tangqiu's face was a little bad.
He is a Chinese teacher. The fact that his proud student went so far as to make a big talk about the mistakes of language education at a public meeting was summed up as five deadly sins.
It's no wonder he's in a good mood.
However, Li Tangqiu thought in his heart, Xiao Fei is only targeting the entire language education system, not me, so why should I automatically sit down.
Thinking about it like this, he felt a little more comfortable in his heart.
With Xiao Fei's suppressed voice, the huge auditorium was silent.
The students nodded frequently, thinking that Xiao Fei was in a good position. The teachers present all had thoughtful expressions on their faces.
Xiao Fei's main content is as follows.
First, the current Chinese language teaching has almost turned the Chinese language teaching, which should be full of human beauty and fun, into a mechanical and boring test-taking training.
Second, the current Chinese teaching model excessively emphasizes the practice of abstraction, generalization, refinement, induction, deduction and other logical thinking skills. However, it ignores the intervention of aesthetic, emotional, volitional and other factors that language education itself should have.
Thirdly, language knowledge is rationally deconstructed and quantified, but the overall language training from the perspective of humanism and text is selectively neglected, so that the basic text is discarded, resulting in the low comprehensive language ability of students.
Fourth, the practice of students' composition has also become a model and a fixed program. What syllogisms and what four elements are all synthesized and instilled in students. It makes the students write essays that are the same and have no bright spots, and they are disgusting to read. Student essays have become a new kind of eight-strand essay.
Fifth, rigid teaching has led to the withering of talents, and the talents of students have been stifled.
To sum up, the current language education is far behind the times, which has seriously hindered the progress of China's Chinese language teaching and the prosperity of the cause.
So, how can this be changed?
Xiao Fei believes that changes should be made from the following perspectives.
First, it is necessary to cultivate students' new thinking: encourage students' creative and divergent thinking, let them learn to break the shackles of old concepts and norms, break the rigidity and conservatism, and advocate allowing students to write freely.
Second, it is necessary to train students to write in a new way of expression and express their inner emotions, so that they can write creatively with their own personalized language.
Third, it is necessary to train students to truly experience life, feel life, observe life, enrich their own experience with real experience, accumulate their own materials, and trigger free and individualized thoughts.
Only in this way can we change the status quo and improve students' aesthetic standards and comprehensive language skills.
Chinese language teaching in China is about to change sooner.
China may be able to produce a few more outstanding and even world-class writers as soon as possible.
What Xiao Fei is talking about is actually a hot topic that is now confused and disputed in the education circles.
At the end of the 90s, with the increasing maturity and stability of the domestic examination-taking system, many scholars have noticed the shortcomings of Chinese teaching.
Li Tangqiu felt that every word of what Xiao Fei said spoke to his heart.
He is a veteran teacher who has been teaching Chinese for more than 20 years.
He hadn't felt that there was anything wrong with the way he and his peers were educated.
But listening to Xiao Fei's words, he found that, as Xiao Fei said, the current Chinese teaching has completely served the exam, and many things, such as aesthetics, personality thoughts, human care, thinking innovation, etc., have been ignored.
It is these things that are the essence of language learning.
After Xiao Fei said the above, he said with a smile: "The above is just a general talk, if there is anything inappropriate, please correct it." ”
There was silence.
No one responded.
Li Tangqiu sighed and took the lead in applauding, a student actually saw the problems in Chinese teaching so thoroughly, which really made him feel both admiration and shame.
Li Tangqiu's applause shocked the people.
For a while, the scene resounded with thunderous applause.
After the applause stopped, there was a "buzzing" discussion at the scene, and it was obvious that Xiao Fei's words aroused people's enthusiasm for discussion.
"Well said."
"That's a good point."
"China's Chinese teaching model is indeed rotten."
"It's not just about languages, it's about other subjects."
This is the voice of approval.
"It's just that the current test-taking system has been formed, and if you don't follow the current model for language practice, then how can you take the exam?"
"That's right, after all, the exam is the highest priority, what if you learn Chinese as Xiao Fei said, and you can't get into college?"
This is a question of Xiao Fei's point of view.
"Not necessarily, right? Xiao Fei's language learning is a more scientific and reasonable way of language learning, if you really learn like that, you can still get high scores if you learn it thoroughly. ”
"This, do you dare to bet? Besides, that aesthetic or something, it takes a lot of time, and studying is so intense, so there is that kind of work! ”
It was two people with different views who were debating fiercely. For a while, there was a commotion in the auditorium. (To be continued)
