How to improve the effectiveness of attending classes ["pushing the door to attend classes" to "push" the effectiveness]

"Pushing the door to attend classes" is actually a teaching management method for school leaders or teaching and research personnel to enter the classroom without saying hello in advance. "Pushing the door to attend classes" is not only an important way of school-based management and school-based evaluation, but also an important way of school-based teaching research and school-based training, which plays an important role in improving teachers' classroom teaching behavior, improving classroom teaching efficiency and promoting teachers' professional growth. In order to "push" the actual effect, we must work hard on the word "push"

First of all, think carefully.

In the story of Deliberation, one of the reasons why the poet Jia Dao used the word "monk knocking on the moon door" was that "knocking" was more polite than "pushing". Why don't leaders "knock on the door to attend classes" and "push the door to attend classes"? If you really push the door to attend classes, it is obviously disrespectful to the class teacher. In fact, most of our leaders who "pushed the door to attend classes" were already sitting in the classroom a few minutes before class, and some even greeted the teacher ten minutes in advance and said, "Can I learn a lesson from you next class?" In fact, the so-called "pushing the door to attend classes" is to listen to the teacher's class and let the teacher know a little in advance. This is the minimum respect for a person and does not affect the understanding of the real situation in the classroom and the screening of the teacher's usual teaching. "Pushing the door to attend classes" needs careful consideration. Who will attend classes every week? Who will attend this course? Who listens to whose class? What classes do you have? When is the lecture? All these require the overall planning and reasonable arrangement of the school. In my opinion, the focus of "pushing the door to attend classes" should be young teachers, teachers with poor teaching performance, teachers who are usually tired, teachers with weak teaching business and teachers with weak school subjects. For backbone teachers, outstanding teachers and experienced old teachers, "pushing the door to attend classes" can be arranged less. Only in this way can we overcome the randomness of "pushing the door to attend classes", enhance the planning, pertinence and highlight the effectiveness.

Second, heart to heart

Our school has implemented the system of "pushing the door to attend classes" for three years. Many teachers were disgusted at first. At that time, it was generally believed that this was a sudden attack on teachers by school leaders, deliberately making things difficult for teachers. To this end, on the one hand, we make extensive publicity at the teachers' meeting, confide in teachers, eliminate worries, and make teachers understand that "opening the door to attend classes" is not only conducive to the school to understand the real teaching situation of teachers at ordinary times, collect various materials, lay a solid foundation for teaching evaluation and teaching guidance, but also conducive to the face-to-face exchange of information, experience, thoughts and emotions between teachers and leaders, and promote teachers' professional growth. On the other hand, communicate with teachers individually in private, fully listen to teachers' opinions, and make a promise of "two permits and two live up to", that is, allow teachers to apply for an extension of hearing due to poor health and allow them to apply for an extension of hearing due to special classes. It is not allowed to publicize the failed teaching as a lesson in public, nor is it allowed to just attend classes without feedback. As a result, teachers' attitudes towards the system of "pushing the door to attend classes" have quietly changed. They no longer dislike "pushing the door to attend classes" and politely refuse. When the school leaders walked into the classroom, they no longer panicked, but responded to us with confident smiles: "Leader, welcome to class, please give us more advice!"

Third, bring forth the old and bring forth the new.

At the beginning, we didn't explicitly ask for "pushing the door to attend classes". We just attend classes and talk about classes. Through a period of practice, the specific requirements and operation process of "pushing the door to attend classes" are gradually introduced: "one listening, two watching and three evaluating". "A listen" means having a class. "Repetition" refers to reading teaching plans and students' homework. Look at the lesson plan, focusing on checking whether the lesson plan is consistent, whether it is based on the lesson plan, higher than the lesson plan, or whether the lesson plan and the classroom are two skins, or even not preparing lessons; Look at the homework, focusing on checking whether the homework layout is scientific and reasonable, whether the correction is timely and serious, and whether the homework writing is neat and standardized. The "three evaluations", that is, the evaluation of classes, are aimed at improving the effective teaching level and classroom efficiency, and the two sides sit together and have equal exchanges and discussions. Bringing forth the old and bringing forth the new is not only manifested in the changes in the content and requirements of "pushing the door to attend classes", but also in the changes in the role of "pushing the door to attend classes". In the past, "pushing the door to attend classes" was only the door of the teacher's classroom pushed by the school leaders, and "pushing the door to attend classes" was the patent of the leaders. Now, "opening the door to attend classes" has expanded the range of listeners, and teachers can open the door of the classroom led by leaders, so that all teachers can enjoy the right to "open the door to attend classes". To this end, "pushing the door to attend classes" can not be limited to "pushing the door", but also "thoughtful, confiding and innovative" to highlight the effectiveness of "pushing the door".
