It is true that the genuine effectiveness of pedagogical work is determined by the extent to which children are included in the process of their own education. After all, the child is not only an object, but also a subject of education. In connection with the relevance of “The question of the attention of the teacher, the material is proposed, which reveals the main methodological provisions of the organization of self -education of schoolchildren.
As a result of special studies, the relationship between the development (objective process) and self -improvement (subjective process) was revealed. It has been established that the desire for self -education as a natural physical need arises in schoolchildren quite early. It is reasonably believed that high school students may well achieve a high level of moral development in the process of self -education. But only under one condition: when self -education is preceded by a methodically correctly organized education. When the teacher, owning the methodology of leading the process of education, organically includes the techniques of self -education in the life of schoolchildren and encourages, directs the “self -movement” of them, promotes the development of self -awareness and self -knowledge, the manifestation of interest in their own inner world and the desire to improve their personality, and educates children independence , activity, will. As a result, the teacher creates those prerequisites without which it makes no sense to start self -education, since it will not bring the effect. It is especially important to pay attention to the motives of self -education, which can be very different in content and in form, conscious and unconscious, positive and negative. Naturally, the teacher takes care that schoolchildren captivate a highly moral model worthy of imitation. In this case, self -improvement of children will acquire a socially directed nature and meet the purpose of education.
Only properly organized education gives self -education consciousness, determination of a sequential improvement of personal qualities. At the same time, self -education as an effective means of individual development raises education to a new quality level. This manifests their relationship and dialectical unity.
At the very initial stage of self -education, during the creation of the prerequisites for it (which it was above), it is useful to conduct a conversation with students about self -education. Its content can be approximately like that.
Each person laid the richest internal forces, which we do not even suspect. Unlimited opportunities, abilities, data data, subject to development with a purposeful effect on oneself. This is the main purpose of self -education. Our society is interested in every person is close to perfection.
What is amenable to self -education and what needs to be educated in itself? Practice has shown that in school years it is possible to: master labor skills, labor culture, foster organization, accuracy, clarity in work, develop attention and memory; to educate the will, determination, perseverance and perseverance in achieving the goal, endurance and self -control, the desire and ability to bring the matter to the end, to fulfill the promised; improve the positive aspects of your personality and get rid of the shortcomings, overcome your vagaries and whims; to develop a high culture of behavior and a sense of taste.
On the basis of approximately this content, a self -education program is drawn up, and a subsidiary is given as if in writing. It should be strictly specific, individual. You cannot give some kind of installation program. But for the guideline, you can cite approximate programs from experience.
Seventh grader c. compiled the following program: “I want to learn to control myself. This is difficult, but I undertake: not to be rude to the elders, not to be offended by trifles, not to give free rein, not to smash with failures “.
VIII student T. I outlined the following program for myself: “To educate a sensitivity and attentive attitude towards people. Overcome shyness and indecision. To develop perseverance. It’s good to finish the school. Learn to swim “.
Ninth grader with. I defined his program like this: “Overcome temper. Strive to see in man primarily his good sides. Learn to fencing, learn how to jump in length and height (in May), swimming (in July). Read Pushkin’s prose. Get to know symphonic music “.
More interesting than others, the program of the nine -grader with. It covers important aspects of personality improvement, contains clear, specific tasks, it is stipulated in it and one of the conditions for fulfilling the intended one – self -control.
Which will help to complete the program? A necessary condition for achieving the plan in self -education is strict adherence to the hygienic regime, the correct distribution of time for sleeping, classes, rest. Self -report in their activities. It is useful to try to answer such questions: “Why did not work out?”,” Why did not make what was recorded?”Based on self -control, work on self -education is improving.
