探析新课改背景下教师教学个性的式微与成长

教师具有自我个性的教学是“人性”在课堂教学的体现。新课程改革在解放学生的同时,也为教师具有自我个性的教学提供了展示的舞台。然而,事与愿违,新课程改革中教师的教学模式化、固定化,边缘化的倾向却越来越明显;当我们为解放学生、张扬学生个性欣喜时,发现教师的教学个性在改革的浪潮中逐渐被淹没。教师教学主体性的失落、教师教学能动性的枯竭、教师教学创造性的阻碍、教师教学自主性的压抑等四个维度是新课改背景下教师教学个性式微的主要原因。新课程改革呼唤教师教学个性的成长,这需要教师主体意识的回归,教师自己积极主动的“适应”、“理解”、“体验”,学校运用开放、弹性的教学管理模式,并建立促进生命发展的教师教学评价体系。

新型城镇化面临的城乡社会危机及其规划策略

当前我国快速城镇化斜率陡悬,压缩了城乡问题释放和缓解的时间,从而快速积聚城乡社会危机。现阶段我国城乡社会危机的焦点分布在特大城市和农村地区两端。我国新型城镇化的总体策略,既要把握好全局的平衡发展,又要着重针对特大城市和广大农村地区两端潜在的社会危机,制定相应的对策。缓解特大城市社会危机的规划策略重点包括:大力推进城市基本公共设施和服务均等化,确保低收入家庭的住房供给"托底",保障老龄化社会为老服务的基本条件,并通过城市社区规划寻求特大城市的社会管理改革与创新;广大农村地区社会危机的规划策略重点包括:注重乡村产业经济"造血机能"的培育,大力推进乡村社会自治,鼓励地方文化保护并加强地方传统特色文化传承,通过促进农村社区规划来探索乡村社会管理改革与创新。

A “Deleterious” Driver: The “First Teacher” Reform in Sweden

This article investigates the implementation of the “förstelärare” or “First teacher” reform in Sweden. We draw upon the insights of a superintendent, union official, principal, three First teachers, and two of their colleagues in one school, and recent literature on career development reform. We employ Michael Fullan’s overview of the “right” and “wrong” drivers of educational reform to analyse the extent to which the First Teacher initiative cultivated productive “professional capital.” The research reveals: how broader national policy aims were in clear tension with municipal-wide school development, and school-level development efforts; the perverse effects of a strong focus upon salary on professional conduct; and how an emphasis upon teachers’ roles per se undermined the espoused policy focus on enhancing teaching. The research cautions against the problematic effects of the initiative on more profession-oriented prerogatives, and how more external, “deleterious,” drivers of reform militate against more productive professional capital.     

Governing teachers’ work and learning through data: Australian insights

This article reveals the multiple ways in which data are constituted as a vehicle for governing teachers’ work and learning. Drawing on the concept of governance, including in relation to the sociology of numbers, and data from one school in Queensland, Australia, the research reveals how teachers’ work and learning were constituted through practices of: establishing specific ‘targets’, including various ‘audacious goals’ for school and national testing; focusing upon ‘aligning’ all forms of school, regional and national data collected within the school; and participating in various ‘data conversations’ about specific students with senior members of staff. While the research reveals how teachers found such practices beneficial for improving their practice with students, it also shows how this learning was always and everywhere framed within a broader discourse of data, and how this data-centric focus came to constitute what was valued about their work and learning, and that of their students.
