In Guandu District, Kunming, there is a teacher training school. As a subordinate unit of the District Education and Sports Bureau, the main task of this school is to improve the local education quality. How to improve the quality of education? In the face of teachers, they have different educational background and teaching experience, How can every teacher continuously optimize teaching methods and contents?
It is not difficult for students to judge the scores of an examination paper, But how to more scientifically analyze why they failed in the exam and what aspects of their ability were poor Missing?
The teachers and researchers of Guandu District have solved these problems well. More than 30 teaching and research staff helped more than 20000 teachers in the area to improve their teaching skills, and helped 230000 students in more than 380 schools to analyze the reasons behind their scores. How did they do it? How to help students develop in an all-round way is a concern of all schools and teachers. Especially in the context of "double reduction", how can we ensure that students can not only reduce their learning burden, but also improve their performance and all-round development? In the traditional teaching model, test scores are the objective criteria to test learning achievements. However, the reference value of the score itself is very limited. For example, two students scored 89 points in physics. One of them may not have mastered the knowledge of "mechanics", and the other may not have understood the module of "optics".
Only by analyzing the specific advantages and disadvantages behind the scores, can we help each student better check and fill gaps, and put valuable learning time on targeted improvement.
Although the teacher will explain the test questions one by one after each exam, knowing the correct answer does not mean knowing why you made a mistake or what ability you lack. Each teacher needs to face dozens of hundreds of students, which is difficult to analyze one by one.
What can we do to find out the advantages and disadvantages behind each student's score more efficiently and accurately?
Guandu District has established a set of "academic quality evaluation" system by combining the proposition outlines of various disciplines with the answers of students' examination papers. For example, in this Chinese exam, the knowledge points that lost points were concentrated on classical Chinese translation or poetry dictation? Is it the lack of memory ability or the need to improve expression ability?
After the examination is completed, the teacher can scan the examination paper through the marking system, and the content of the examination paper can be automatically formed into the analysis of the examination paper through the marking system: Determine which knowledge points each student has not mastered and which abilities need to be improved, and generate a detailed and intuitive learning report.![]()
As soon as the exam results come out, each student can see the analysis of their own test paper in the report. Parents can also see their children's analysis reports on WeChat, After learning about the recent learning situation of students, we can discuss how to improve pertinence with teachers.
Teachers, principals and education bureaus can also see the analysis reports of their classes, schools and districts on enterprise WeChat. For example, students' English listening scores in a school are generally low, so teachers and schools can increase English listening training in time; If the composition of a class is well written, you can ask the teacher of the class to share his teaching experience.
With this systematic analysis of "academic quality evaluation", teachers in Guandu District have said goodbye to the way that used to take time and effort to find problems by experience. After each exam, you can get the students' study report at the first time. Even inexperienced teachers or parents who do not know a subject can clearly know the problems of students and help them develop in an all-round way. Many schools recruit young teachers who have just graduated every year. The integration of fresh blood can bring vitality to the teaching team, but the growth of young teachers also takes time. How can we help teachers make faster progress?
Teachers themselves often find it difficult to find problems in the classroom, so teachers and researchers will go to various schools to audit and help teachers optimize teaching methods and content.
However, the traditional way of listening to and evaluating lessons is not efficient, and the effect is also lacking: Guandu District There are only more than 30 teaching and research staff, and more than 20000 teachers from more than 380 schools in the region, The teaching and research staff have to go to various schools to listen to lectures, and they have to sort out the evaluation and suggestions for teachers after class, which is a heavy workload.
And after class, the teacher may be surrounded by students to ask questions, and the teaching and research staff also have to rush to listen to the next class. After two or three days, we finally had time to communicate and feedback, and we could not remember the specific situation in the classroom with the written evaluation record. In this way, the help that listening to and evaluating lessons can bring to teachers is very limited.
Guandu District Teachers' School hopes that with the help of digital tools, teachers can receive detailed classroom evaluations in a timely manner, so that listening to and evaluating lessons can bring real help to teachers.
On the enterprise WeChat of teachers in Guandu District, there is a small program called "mobile class listening and evaluation". The teaching and research staff can see the points, schools and courses on their mobile phones. They can choose to go to the classroom to listen to the live class or watch the live class broadcast on their mobile phones.![]()
After the course starts, When the teaching and research staff turn on their mobile phones, they can record comments on the "electronic listening textbook" in the enterprise WeChat while listening to the lectures. If the teacher's blackboard writing is not clear enough or the knowledge points are not explained thoroughly, You can also take a photo or record a video on your mobile phone, and directly click to add it to the class evaluation record.![]()
As soon as the bell rings, the teaching and research staff's assessment record will be completed. You don't need to spend time sorting out after class, you can directly send it to the enterprise WeChat of the teacher in class. The teacher can receive the evaluation feedback of this class after class. Through photos and videos, he can find his own problems in time and make adjustments.
In addition to the feedback of the day, the teacher can see the previous evaluation records. Did you adjust the problem of speaking too fast last semester? Is the structure of blackboard writing clearer than before? Teachers can see their own progress and shortcomings by reviewing their past classroom performance.
“ Moreover, the whole process of listening to and evaluating lessons can be completed on mobile phones or tablets, and no special equipment needs to be purchased; The system is developed based on the enterprise WeChat zero code tool, which is not troublesome. We have easily realized the online listening and evaluation of the whole class, but it has greatly helped the growth of teachers. " President Zhang of Guandu Teachers' Training School shared with us.
Research and training is a compulsory training course for teachers every year. The teaching and research staff will help teachers keep abreast of the latest education policies, so that teachers' teaching content and methods can also keep pace with the times.
But in the past, teachers had various inconveniences from signing up to participating in training.
From the notice of training, it can only be delivered through group chat, from teachers' training schools to primary and secondary schools, and then to grades. The teaching and research staff will be bombarded with hundreds of messages just in the notice and registration links.
On the training day, there was another link that made President Zhang headache: Each training will have hundreds of teachers queuing up to sign in at the scene. The teaching and research staff will collect a large stack of sign in forms, verify and register each teacher's class hours one by one, which is very time-consuming and laborious.
"Because teachers need to attend at least 360 hours of training every five years to continue to register as teachers, the statistics of each teacher and each class hour should not be sloppy. In the past, half of our teaching and research staff's time was spent on training, and the other half was spent on statistical training hours. ”
The teacher training school in Guandu District decided to use enterprise WeChat to reduce the burden and speed up these trivial processes.
Now, teachers and researchers can use enterprise WeChat, Push the training notice directly to the teachers who need to participate in the training.
With the online conference and live broadcast function of WeChat, part of the training has also been moved online, Teachers can also participate in the training in school, and review the training content through playback after class.
"The conference function of WeChat has well met our training needs. Previously, we had a" Double Reduction Policy Seminar ", More than 20000 teachers in the whole district need to participate online, and the meeting process is very clear and smooth, Every teacher can successfully complete the training online. " President Zhang shared with us.
In addition, the most time-consuming and laborious class hour statistics can also be completed by digital tools. After the training, the "Teaching and Research Activity Management" application built on the enterprise WeChat will automatically count the class hours of each teacher and enter them into the system. It not only saves the time and energy of the teaching and research staff, but also makes accurate statistical accounting and will not make mistakes.![]()
In addition, digital tools also allow teachers and researchers to more easily feedback, communicate, and improve training content in a timely manner.
Previously, paper questionnaires were issued after the training, but teachers often rushed back to school without time to fill in; After returning to the school, we have to devote ourselves to the busy teaching work. The teaching and research staff leave their mailboxes and seldom receive feedback. Now, after the training, Teachers will receive the course questionnaire on their mobile phones, and take a few minutes to complete the feedback on the training.
"It's hard for us to know whether the training can really help teachers' teaching. Now, teachers are willing to give us any suggestions, and we can also optimize the training content in a more timely manner. ”Zhang said.
Enterprise WeChat frees everyone from trivial processes, and teachers and researchers can have more time to study education policies and improve training content. President Zhang was also pleased to see that digitalization has brought tangible help and change to everyone.
In the past, the level of economic development, talent reserves and other issues will limit and affect the quality of education in a region. Now, we are pleased to see that more and more regions and schools like Guandu are breaking through the past restrictions with the help of digital tools and truly improving the quality of local education.
Enterprise WeChat is honored to participate in the education and growth process of many teachers and students, and also hopes that the digitalization ability of enterprise WeChat can provide more help and convenience for everyone.
Enterprise WeChat Live broadcast of Education WeTalk, President Zhang Guoxi of Guandu Teachers' Training School was invited to share more practical experience on "new methods to improve education quality".
