Educational narrative is a "story plus discussion" style that is more suitable for teachers' writing growth. It is a form for teachers to reflect on their own educational and teaching behaviors.
It can be said that educational narrative is the best weapon for teachers to face this era. If every teacher’s educational career was written into a book, then this book would be a collection of countless educational stories, large and small. Yes, those famous education experts are all masters of writing educational narratives, such as Li Zhenxi, Dou Guimei, Yu Yongzheng and other famous teachers. They have written countless chapters of educational narratives and compiled them into educational monographs.
Every teacher must tell his or her own educational story. Next, let us discuss what is educational narrative? Why write educational narratives? How to write a good educational narrative?
The "narrative" in educational narratives, where "things" refer to stories or accidents, actually means telling true stories in education and teaching.
In summary, educational narrative is an objective process, real experience, subjective interpretation, discovery and revelation. The narrative report reflects the author’s own understanding of the research object, and more importantly, My own reflections on teaching. ?
It expresses the understanding and explanation of education in the form of narrative and storytelling. It does not directly define what education is, nor does it directly stipulate how education should be done. It just tells readers one or more educational stories, allowing readers to experience what education is or how it should be done.
Some people also describe it this way, educational narrative research is to describe educational behavior, construct meaning, and obtain interpretive meaning understanding of educational activities through the story narration of educational subjects.
Many teachers think that educational narrative is the "patent" of education experts. This is a very common misunderstanding. In fact, educational narrative should be the normal life of our front-line education, because our primary and secondary education is rooted in education and teaching. On the front line, we personally experience the field of education and teaching every day. Being involved in the situation without knowing what is going on is an invisible dereliction of duty. Why not record our education stories and express our own thoughts, instead of seeing ourselves as "outsiders" "Woolen cloth?
Educational narrative is not something that leaders arrange for teachers to write, but a kind of conscious and spontaneous behavior. Those who pay attention to capture the problems or phenomena in educational life should be more sensitive and conscious about educational life, and really delve into it. , teachers who focus on solving educational problems, turn educational narrative into educational narrative research, and become famous teachers and backbones in a few years. This is actually due to their treating educational narrative as a kind of educational life.
Once we understand this, we will know why we should write educational narratives.
Educational narrative is to record educational life, express thoughts and ideas, train one's thinking ability, improve teaching level, and force growth.
At the same time, whether it is educational narratives or educational essays, if you write too much, you will continue to output values ??and accumulate educational wealth. As long as you continue to write and write a certain amount, you will achieve qualitative changes from quantitative changes and create My own influence may be that after three to five years, I may even continue to write educational narratives for a long time and export them into educational monographs. For example, Teacher Dou Guimei has successively published monographs such as "Laying the Foundation for Life", "We Grow Together", "Excellent Records of Dou Guimei's Reading Teaching", "Exchange of Love and Love - Selected Compositions of Dou Guimei's Students", and has edited or co-edited 7 books and published nearly 100 articles. Hundreds of articles. Read these monographs and articles carefully, and many of them are educational narratives.
From educational narratives, we found that each educational narrative reflects on its own educational and teaching behaviors, explores educational laws, and aims to improve the effectiveness of classroom teaching and promote teachers’ own professional development through narrative research.
When it comes to writing, the first thing that many people think of is whether there is any framework or template. If there is, then the article will definitely be the same, with poor readability and appeal. However, although there is no educational narrative It has a fixed structure, and if you master its core elements to write it, you will definitely be able to write your own educational narrative well.
Because it is storytelling, a story is a plot used to embody a theme in a literary and artistic work. It needs to be coherent, suspenseful and linguistically modified, attractive and infective, so it must have the qualities of a literary work. Characteristics: characters, plot, setting, rhetoric. ——Highly readable.
It is based on the real life of the teacher. It is a real person who has experienced and experienced it personally and cannot be fictional. ——Must be true.
It is the meaning of educational experience, it is for teachers to reflect on their own educational and teaching behavior, and it is for teachers to express their educational ideals and educational beliefs through their own life experiences. Use your own education story to explain your mental journey, interpret your performance results and your feelings about education. ——The feeling is profound.
Okay, then as long as we grasp the four elements of story background, situation description, result or effect of problem solving, reflection or analysis, and narrate around these elements, a good educational narrative article can be Easily written.
When writing the background of the story, you only need to explain the environmental background clearly. The background of the story is to lay the groundwork for the plot of the story. When describing the story situation, the language, mood, psychology, etc. of the characters must be fully described. Then highlight the problem-solving methods in the problem, provide effective solutions, achieve the expected results, and finally add appropriate comments and reflections. This is the basic idea of ??writing a good educational narrative article.
Educational narrative is the ability to enhance teachers’ educational wisdom. It is an educational realm of truth, goodness and beauty for teachers. It is the teacher who affirms his own character beyond himself.
Finally, what I want to say is that as long as you dare to write, these educational situation stories will continue to emerge in your mind. If you dare not to write, no matter how good the story is, It will also rot in your brain.
Keep writing as much as you like, tell your own educational story, and make your educational life better!
