Zoucheng Survey Of Junior High School Teaching Situation Of Local History And Thinking

Ever since the start of a new round of basic education revolution, local history teaching has aroused general interest among academic circles. To understand the current status of local history teaching in middle school education, the author conducted a systematic research through questionnaires and interviews with junior middle school teachers and students in Zoucheng City, Shandong Province. After a sound analysis of materials collected during the research, the author concludes that neither the local history teaching in junior middle schools in Zoucheng is prosperous nor the cognitive level of the students to local history is satisfactory. Since Zoucheng is a city with rich history and great humanities, it is really a pity to allow all the resources lie waste.To improve the present situation, the author puts forward several proposals based on the principle of new curriculum reform as following: first, get a clear understanding of the importance attached to local history teaching; second, related governmental and educational departments work together to brew an atmosphere in which local history teaching is greatly valued and respected; third, integrate local history resources of Zoucheng City in a scientific manner; fourth, strength the training of local history teachers; fifth, prompt the evaluation system of local history teaching.At the end, the author develops some local history teaching cases based on his teaching practice and references to methodologies in other places.
