2022-03-21
Recently, the Ministry of Education issued the key points of work in 2022, pointing out that we should comprehensively promote the revitalization of rural education and the revitalization of rural education, and encourage the formation of a Rural Revitalization work law with educational characteristics and giving full play to educational advantages. As an important engine to realize the revitalization of rural education, how do normal universities play a role in this process? Over the past 70 years, Jiangsu Normal University has always adhered to the nature of normal education, actively served the construction of rural basic education, delivered a large number of high-quality educational resources for rural areas, and effectively promoted the revitalization of rural education and economic and social development. Stimulate the vitality of rural education Yu Xuequn, the most beautiful rural teacher in China, is pleased that when it comes to holidays, college students of Jiangsu Normal University will always come to the "sunflower reading point" she founded to voluntarily bring rich reading activities to local left behind children. Yu Xuequn also came to Jiangsu Normal University many times to give lectures and interact with normal students. In recent years, a large number of normal students have entered rural primary and secondary schools to carry out voluntary teaching support, and rural teachers have been widely invited to colleges and universities to participate in the training of normal students, which has become a fine tradition of Jiangsu Normal University. The research and application of rural education in Jiangsu Normal University has a long history. Mr. Liu Baichuan, a famous educator, an explorer of China's modern rural education practice and a former vice chairman of Jiangsu middle school teacher training class and chief provost, proposed that rural schools and rural teachers should play a special role in solving various rural problems in presiding over the rural education movement. In 1958, Jiangsu normal college, the predecessor of Jiangsu Normal University and established on the basis of middle school teacher training classes in Jiangsu Province, moved north from Wuxi in southern Jiangsu to Xuzhou. The next year, it was renamed Xuzhou Normal College, becoming the only undergraduate college in Northern Jiangsu at that time. Mr. Liu Baichuan moved to northern Jiangsu and continued to devote himself to the research and practice of rural education. In 2011, the University was renamed Jiangsu Normal University. "As a normal university, the reason why we moved north to Xuzhou is to comprehensively revitalize education in Northern Jiangsu, especially rural education. This is the responsibility and mission entrusted to us by the times, and it is also the essence of running a school that we have adhered to so far." Zhou Ruguang, President of Jiangsu Normal University, said. From taking root in Northern Jiangsu to facing the whole country, Jiangsu Normal University also established the country's first "Rural Teacher Education Alliance" with 18 normal universities in Huaihai Economic Zone in 2016. At present, the alliance universities have established a long-term cooperation mechanism with local governments and rural primary and secondary schools, truly realizing the integration of rural teacher training and research services. "By promoting and narrowing the gap between urban and rural teachers, we aim to cultivate and bring up a number of localized rural teachers who are rooted in the countryside, willing to contribute, specialized and versatile, and with all-round quality." Zhou Ruguang said. Enhance the motivation of Educational Research In Zhaosu County, Yili Prefecture, Xinjiang, more than 2300 local rural primary and secondary school teachers have simultaneously used the "Taizhou education and life cloud". With the help of this platform, local teachers can realize full-time dialogue and exchange with national famous teachers and discipline experts in Colleges and universities. Why does a smart education platform from Taizhou appear in the western region? As early as 2014, in order to improve the information-based teaching ability of basic education teachers, Jiangsu Normal University developed and launched the "Taizhou teacher theory" online training platform for Taizhou education system. At present, it has become a teacher education brand based in Taizhou and facing the whole country, benefiting more than 100000 front-line teachers across the country. "It's like building a tool based on the Internet, which can be applied to the daily education of rural teachers." Wei Benya, head of the main creative team of the platform and professor of Jiangsu Normal University, introduced that through long-term scientific research, the team has effectively solved the problems of rural teachers' professional development and basic education curriculum reform. The high-quality development of rural basic education also needs to further promote the "supply side" reform. In recent years, aiming at the weak links of basic education, Jiangsu Normal University has explored a "teaching and research ecological chain" serving the development of basic education by improving the theoretical research of basic education and the after-service training ability of primary and secondary school teachers. Boost rural service capacity From Nujiang Prefecture in Yunnan to Daliangshan District in Sichuan, from Linxia Prefecture in Gansu to Miaoling mountains in Guizhou... As the second batch of "National University huangdanian style teacher team", in recent years, the linguistics teacher team of Jiangsu Normal University has extended its scientific research position to the central and western regions. By engaging in language filing, Putonghua teaching and training, evaluation and acceptance, we will help the young and middle-aged people of ethnic minorities overcome the language difficulties in life and employment, and accelerate the realization of poverty alleviation and prosperity. Dapulo village is an ethnic minority village in Nujiang Lisu Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province. Not long ago, villagers and sheye received the textbook "100 sentences of the simplest and practical Putonghua in Lisu language control version" specially prepared for them. In addition to beekeeping, they and sheye carried and read it with them and couldn't put it down. With the support of the local government, hesheye began beekeeping in the past two years, but because he can't speak Mandarin and can't read Chinese characters, it's difficult for good honey to expand its way. After the team of linguistics teachers and college students of Jiangsu Normal University came here, they carried out long-term research and selected daily life scenes such as job hunting, shopping and catering to compile practical teaching materials. "Now I can not only speak simple Mandarin, but also learn Chinese characters from books. In the future, I want to learn how to sell honey online." He sheye said with a smile. Helping the poor first helps the wise, and helping the wise first speaks. In order to help young people of ethnic minorities like hesheye better learn and master Putonghua, in addition to the Lisu language control version, the team has also prepared language control versions of Yi, Uygur, Naxi, Tibetan and other languages. "Speaking Mandarin is of great significance to the people in ethnic minority areas. We combine scientific research with serving the national strategic needs, so that the people in ethnic minority areas can further consolidate and expand the achievements in poverty alleviation and solidly promote rural revitalization." Yang Yiming, head of the linguistics teacher team of Jiangsu Normal University and distinguished professor of "Changjiang Scholars" of the Ministry of education, said. In order to help rural revitalization, in recent years, Jiangsu Normal University has also continuously delivered high-quality educational resources to the central and western regions in the fields of University local cooperation, industry university integration, voluntary service and so on. "In the new journey of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way, we will base ourselves on the tradition of rural education research and application, adhere to the nature of normal education, benefit more rural areas from the results of running schools, and truly write a chapter of Jiangsu Normal University in revitalizing the countryside through education." Hua Guihong, Secretary of the Party committee of Jiangsu Normal University, said. (outlook new era)
