After listening to teacher X's special lecture, I learned that mental health education should be geared to all students, cultivate students' good psychological quality, promote their all-round and harmonious development of body and mind, and improve their comprehensive quality. Today's society requires us not only to have a healthy body, but also to have a healthy mental state and good social adaptability. After this mental health education, I gained a lot. Not only did I learn a lot of professional psychological knowledge, but many previous questions were solved, and I really realized the importance of mental health. The following are some of my experiences after studying:
First of all, teachers themselves must be mentally healthy people.
Through the first-line teaching experience, I deeply realized that teachers' own mental health directly affects the people around them. Without mental health, we can't correctly understand students' behavior and skillfully handle students' problems, which may affect the relationship between teachers and students and hurt students' hearts. Therefore, in order to better educate students, teachers themselves must first be mentally healthy people.
Fundamentally speaking, teachers' mental health must be maintained by themselves. An excellent teacher should be able to handle the relationship between two aspects-paying attention to students' mental health and their own mental health. A good teacher can bear a lot of pressure when needed, but don't let yourself be under pressure all the time, which will damage your body and mind and affect your normal work and life. As a teacher, only by constantly improving their comprehensive quality, constantly learning and mastering new knowledge, adapting to new teaching concepts as soon as possible, mastering new teaching methods and meeting new teaching requirements, can they seek new development and truly have a sense of psychological security. Teachers constantly accept new knowledge and broaden their horizons, which can also make them look at problems from a higher angle, treat unsatisfactory things in life and work with a more peaceful attitude, and experience less anxiety and frustration, which is of great significance to maintaining mental health.
A conscientious teacher is very hard and needs rest and relaxation. Being an "omnipotent" educator is really tiring. Therefore, teachers can try to recharge their batteries during the holidays, such as: learning to be a traveler and recording the beautiful things in life with film; Learn to be a gourmet and a chef while tasting delicious food. New work experience can not only relax teachers, but also broaden their horizons and increase their knowledge. Teachers can bring the experience and positive emotions gained from other work experiences to education, so as to better promote education.
Second, always pay attention to the psychological counseling of special students.
Teachers' bounden duty is to teach and educate people, and they should try their best to treat problem students. What should they do when they encounter problems? It is necessary to make full use of the role of class collectives, strengthen group counseling for students' psychology in a relaxed and equal class atmosphere, and give full play to the collective psychological counseling role of class team activity classes through the form of theme class meetings. According to the characteristics of special students, focus on the theme of group counseling. For example, self-confidence education and adolescent education. Use lectures, cognition, operation, performance, role-playing, behavior training and other methods to stimulate students' internal motivation to actively participate and get understanding in the activities. Through a series of group psychological counseling activities, not only did all students gain knowledge about mental health, but also the distance between classmates and teachers and students was narrowed, and the relationship between teachers and students was harmonious.
While considering the general psychological laws of students, we should also help individual psychological problems exposed by individual students. In the individual counseling of students, on the one hand, through the part-time psychological teacher in the psychological counseling room, on the other hand, through individual heart-to-heart counseling. Through the psychological consultation box set up by the school, we can get through the psychological channels of teachers and students, understand the students' real thoughts in time, and help students solve their psychological confusion.
The second part summarizes the experience of mental health education.
A century-long plan, education-oriented. "The hope of revitalizing education lies in teachers, so teachers' personality and mental health directly or indirectly affect their own development and students' education.
In today's rapidly developing society, economic competition depends on the quality of workers, while the quality of workers depends on the level of education, and teachers are the basis of education. Therefore, teachers play a fundamental role in the competition of education and even social development.
At present, the tide of goods has flooded into the already contradictory teaching profession, resulting in a "upside down" situation, and some teachers have experienced turmoil and inclination in their hearts, further aggravating their inner contradictions. If the internal contradictions are not handled properly, it will inevitably affect educational activities. From a higher perspective, the mental health of teachers is related to the development of students, the progress of society and even the progress of mankind. The times require teachers to improve their mental health.
MacDonald, president of the American Moral Union, said: "Without knowledge, only morality is fragile; But without behavior, knowledge alone is dangerous and a potential threat to society. " From MacDonald's words, the mental health of teachers, especially the sound personality, is related to students' value orientation, attitude towards society and development direction.
Therefore, the significance of teachers' mental health is very necessary and urgent from the perspective of the whole society, the times and the students themselves.
What are the factors that affect teachers' mental health?
1, social responsibility is great, and people expect too much from teachers.
With the advent of the information age and economic age, parents of students are increasingly aware of the importance of education and knowledge. Therefore, children's education has received unprecedented attention. As children's main school educators, parents rely too much on teachers' educational role. Especially the teachers who teach graduating classes, they feel more pressure from their parents. Our children's poor academic performance due to insufficient subjective efforts or other objective reasons will be greatly questioned by the subject teachers. Even students mix with social bad elements, then do some illegal things, often play truant and so on. Parents only look at teachers.
If carefully analyzed, many schools and families should educate students together, and now they only invest in teachers. In other words, teachers take on some responsibilities shared by many parties. Society entrusts teachers with too many responsibilities and high hopes, which makes them breathless.
2. There are still some unreasonable places in the teacher evaluation and management system. This is also an important factor affecting teachers' mental health. Some systems pay attention to the academic achievements of the subjects taught by teachers, but ignore the efforts made by teachers in changing students' bad value orientation, behavior habits, ideology and morality, and ignore the sweat and hard work of teachers outside the teaching work.
The object of teacher education is people, a developing individual. The results of teachers' labor education for students cannot be judged solely by students' academic achievements. The ultimate goal of education is to make every immature individual develop and integrate into society. But the object of labor is people, and there are differences between people. In addition, students' development performance needs long-term observation, which is also the joint efforts of many educational forces. In short, it is still very difficult to measure the growth of students effectively and accurately as the basis for teachers' evaluation. Therefore, the imperfect evaluation system still has a certain impact on teachers' mental health.
3. Interpersonal relationship is also a factor that affects teachers' mental health. There are both mutual cooperation and competition among peers, such as job title evaluation and promotion. There is great competition among teachers. There are many qualified people, but the number of places is limited. Some teachers take some inappropriate measures to highlight scientific research achievements, which undoubtedly brings a certain psychological shadow to themselves and others. Teachers' competition for posts and frequent examinations are also important factors to increase teachers' burden. With the development of the times, teachers' professional requirements are getting higher and higher, and some teachers' psychological ability to bear great pressure may be a little low, which may lead to anxiety and other problems. Too much pressure will affect teachers' mental health.
4. Physical health is an important factor affecting teachers' mental health. Teachers' work is far from being as simple and easy as the society says. Although the teaching profession is glorious and great, behind this glory, teachers need to pay a lot of labor to deal with a lot of work such as preparing lessons, attending classes, correcting homework and school affairs. Because of this, teachers have to bear a large part of the responsibility of educating people. Therefore, heavy work will inevitably threaten the health of teachers. Many teachers suffer from cervical spondylosis, lumbar disc herniation, scapulohumeral periarthritis, pharyngitis and so on. A lot of work has left them in a state of physical and mental exhaustion, and physical illness will further affect teachers' mental health.
Generally speaking, teachers have been under strong pressure for a long time. If this kind of excessive pressure is not vented in time and reasonably, it will lead to teachers' mental fatigue and mental state, and bring all kinds of distress, anxiety, palpitations and depression. As a result, psychological maladjustment occurred. In severe cases, it may lead to mental illness.
Teachers' mental health is very important, and teachers should pay attention to maintaining their own mental health in their daily work. As an intellectual with certain psychological knowledge, teachers should fully and seriously think about their own abilities, expecting to make reasonable judgments and form more appropriate values. This can prevent teachers from asking too much of themselves and creating a psychological gap. Teachers should abandon or weaken some viewpoints, such as fame and fortune, perfect standard and so on.
Teachers should also correctly understand the pressure from society. Students, parents, school leaders, and others in the society put forward some requirements for teachers, abide by professional ethics, only seek dedication, not enjoyment, and do better than the average person. Social workers have high expectations for teachers in training students and observing the code of conduct. The spread of some unhealthy trends in society has had a series of influences on students, making it difficult for teachers to gain a sense of accomplishment in their work.
In the face of various social pressures, teachers should first go into battle lightly, with moderate pressure, and don't give too much burden. Secondly, teachers should carefully analyze the sources of social pressure and correctly analyze the direction of their own efforts. Under reasonable standards, teachers can take the initiative to screen. Choose reasonable pressure, turn it into motivation, and solve problems with your own actions.
Teachers should strengthen their study of educational theory, professional rules, students and scientific and cultural knowledge, so as to enrich and improve themselves in an all-round way. Use your glorious behavior to influence students, help students establish a correct value orientation, and reduce the negative influence from students.
Once psychological pressure occurs, psychological anxiety will occur. Teachers should pay attention to their emotional changes. Teachers should take certain measures to relax their emotions and relieve nervous pressure.
1, teachers can make use of certain sports activities to let the pressure leak. Through the relaxation of muscles, skeletal joints, breathing exercises and nerves, the energy consumption of the body can be reduced, thus controlling bad emotions.
2. divert attention. In addition to intense work, teachers take part in colorful extracurricular activities and adjust the tense pace of life to relax their emotions and reduce their psychological pressure.
3. Chat with friends. Teachers who find psychological pressure and negative emotions can communicate with their close friends and family members, vent their inner negative emotions to a certain extent and within a certain range, and vent their pent-up energy. At the same time, through conversation, teachers can get the support and understanding of relatives and friends and get some psychological comfort.
Teachers can also take pressure as a challenge, hone themselves with strong will, resist the past and enhance their ability to resist pressure. Stress is just a subjective response to the stimulation of something. Different people have different reactions to the same stimulus. Some people feel dizzy; Second, some people disagree. People with strong pressure resistance feel less psychological pressure on the same stimulus, while people with weak pressure resistance feel great. Therefore, teachers should seize the appropriate opportunity to fight pressure with indomitable spirit, hone the quality of will, enhance the ability to resist pressure and reduce psychological pressure.
Schools and society should also set up corresponding places and institutions, such as teachers' homes, fraternity, teachers' clubs, teachers' psychological clinics, teachers' psychological health consultation hotlines, online psychological consultation, etc., and establish a psychological consultation system for teachers to help teachers relieve psychological pressure and eliminate psychological troubles in time. In addition, teachers can also be asked to do some psychological tests, set up psychological portfolios, and make observations and records. Discover teachers' psychological problems in time, help teachers to channel and solve them, and promote the healthy development of teachers' psychology.
There are thousands of methods, and choosing the one that suits you is the most important. Secondly, if teachers conscientiously implement and stick to it, their pressure will be much reduced.
Chapter III Summary of Mental Health Education Experience
On the afternoon of March 3 1, I was lucky enough to go to Zhengzhou No.82 Middle School to listen to the professional lecture of "Teacher Training Forum-Improving Teachers' Professional Happiness and Students' Mental Health Development". The lecturer, Professor Lin, is young but knowledgeable. At the beginning of the course, Mr. Lin successfully attracted the attention of all participants with a multiple-choice question, and then introduced it into the theme of this lecture. I am surprised that Professor Lin is a master of classroom introduction, although he is not a teacher! In the next three hours of study, Professor Lin explained the mental health development of children of different ages with examples from life, and gave guidance on the problems that children concentrated in different periods. For example, children aged 3-6 should repeat positive requirements in education; When children are rebellious, what parents should do is to accompany, support and trust; When children are in adolescence, we should send them out gently and let them accept just the right setbacks. ...
This lecture, whether I am a teacher or a mother, has played a very real role in educating students and their children. It let me know the characteristics of children's psychological development at each stage, let me know that children's performance is normal, and reduce the anxiety in education. Thank you for holding such a meaningful activity in the further education school! Thank the school for giving me the opportunity to participate in this study!
