正处于从应试教育向素质教育转轨过程中的中学语文教学,由于新闻媒体的介入。又走进了人们的视线,广大语文教师再次成为众说纷纭的对象。是耶,非耶?福兮,锅兮?70年代末以来,语文教学的进步有目共睹,语文教学存在的诸多弊端也早已不是什么新闻,中语界大多数同志对此有相当清醒的认识,并在实践中艰难地探索着改革之路。语文教学上的高耗低效少慢差费,其源盖出于应试教育,它能否从根本上得到改观,取决于大环境的改善,取决于种种因素所形成的“合力”的作用。那种全盘否定当前的语文教学,一味指责语文教师的说法,是与事实不符,很不公平,难以服人的,不利于素质教育在语文学科的贯彻实施。毛泽东说:“没有调查就没有发言权。”斯人虽已去,其言仍煌煌。你若真的关心语文教育,请放下架子到学校来,到语文课堂上来,看看听听问问,再想想该说些什么。“嘤其鸣矣,求其友声。”中语界的广大教师和研究人员正热切期盼着有实事求是之心,无哗众取宠之意的各方朋友,为“道阻且长”的语文教改说实话办实事。为活跃学术气氛,打开教改思路,我们特从湖北教育出版社与本刊联袂合作即将推出的《著名语文特级教师素质教育丛书》中的“答客问难”栏,摘选了几位全国著名特级教师关于语文教学现状与发展趋势的言论,以飨读者。欢迎来稿参与讨论。 We are in the process of transitioning from exam-oriented education to quality education in middle school Chinese language teaching, due to the intervention of news media. Once again, people walked into the eyes of the people. The majority of Chinese teachers have once again become the subject of diverse opinions. Since the end of the 1970s, the progress of Chinese language teaching has been obvious to all. Many disadvantages in Chinese language teaching have long been not news. Most comrades in the Chinese-speaking world have a very clear understanding of this, and In practice, it is difficult to explore the road to reform. Chinese language teaching has a high rate of consumption, low efficiency, little delay, and fee. Its source covers exam-oriented education. Whether it can be fundamentally improved or not depends on the improvement of the general environment and on the “combination of forces” formed by various factors. That kind of total negation of the current language teaching, blindly accusing the language teacher of saying is inconsistent with the facts, very unfair, and difficult to obey people, is not conducive to the implementation of quality education in the language discipline. Mao Zedong said: “Without investigation, there is no right to speak.” Although the Slovak people have gone, their words remain. If you are really concerned about language education, please put it on the shelf and come to the Chinese language class to see if you want to ask questions, and then think about what to say. “The Chinese people in the Chinese speaking community are eager to seek their friendliness.” Teachers and researchers in the Chinese language community are eagerly looking forward to having a heart of seeking truth from facts. Truth telling the truth. In order to activate the academic atmosphere and open up ideas for education reform, we specially selected the national famous “The Answer to Asking Questions” column in the “Prestigious Teachers’ Quality Education Series” in cooperation with Hubei Education Publishing House and the Journal. Special teachers’ comments on the status quo and development trend of Chinese language teaching are aimed at readers. The contributions are welcome to participate in the discussion.
