How can learning psychological knowledge help contemporary teachers?

When we construct our understanding of a thing, we will unconsciously fill those "blanks" with our own experience and make a thing complete.

The less specific facts we know, the more we need to fill in the blanks. In fact, a large part of the image of this thing finally built comes from our subjective consciousness, not objective facts. To what extent can it conform to the real reality? This needs verification.

If you can do this, it is actually a kind of "mind reading". But obviously, this kind of mind-reading can never be easily practiced, nor can it be perfect, and everything is under control.

Psychologist Rosenthal once did a test in a school. He randomly selected three students from each class, wrote them on a form, and told the headmaster that all these students had passed the science test, and they were all talents with high IQ and great potential.

Six months later, Rosenthal came to the school and found that the students who had been drawn had made great progress in their grades and had been excellent since they grew up. In fact, this is not the result of psychological test, but the result expected by the teacher.

Because of the psychologist's prediction, teachers and parents have the expectation of language realization and finally get the desired results.

Mental health is very important for teachers and their education. Therefore, while strengthening the cultivation of teachers' morality and improving their knowledge and ability, teachers must also know that the standard of teachers' mental health is to adjust their psychological state, optimize their psychological quality structure and continuously improve their mental health maintenance ability. Only in this way can we live a happier life and teach and educate people better. So what is the standard of teachers' mental health? Educational psychologists have put forward their own views from different angles. Some people think it should include: role identification, harmonious interpersonal relationship, correct understanding of self and so on. Some people think that it should include: healthy personality, good teachers' morality and good self-awareness. Below, we discuss this issue from the perspective of psychological quality according to the professional characteristics of teachers.

Good educational interpersonal relationship. Educational interpersonal relationships mainly include: teachers and students, teachers and leaders, teachers and parents, teachers and teachers' interpersonal relationships. This kind of educational interpersonal relationship constitutes a unique environment for teachers' work and life, which has an important impact on teachers' mental health. Whether educational interpersonal relationship can be done well is another index to measure teachers' mental health. To establish a harmonious educational interpersonal relationship, teachers must start from themselves, strengthen mutual understanding and understanding, seek common ground while reserving differences, and try to narrow the psychological distance of the relationship objects.
