Ma Yun said that the aging age structure and knowledge structure of rural teachers have led to the weakness of rural education in China. "But, where there is a problem, there is an opportunity. Rural education is likely to become the best breakthrough in China's education reform. "
Adopt targeted recruitment and joint selection mechanism.
The first phase of Ma Yun Rural Normal School is scheduled to be officially launched on1October 265438+2 1 2065438. We will invest100000 yuan to select1000 outstanding normal graduates to enroll in rural schools and provide them with cash assistance and professional development opportunities for five years.
The first batch of cooperative institutions include Hunan First Normal University, Sichuan Normal University, Chongqing Normal University and Jilin Normal University. In the future, the project will be gradually extended to other provinces, and the amount of funds will increase year by year. The project is expected to invest at least 300 million yuan in 10 years.
"Only by making the best students become rural teachers can rural education be strong." Ma Yun publicly explained his original intention of setting up this new plan.
Yu, executive secretary of Ma Yun Public Welfare Foundation, said that the project will adopt a targeted recruitment and joint selection mechanism. Orientation means that the foundation insists on recruiting talents from provincial first-class normal universities; Joint selection refers to the combination of recommendation of cooperative normal universities and students' independent online declaration.
The Foundation will use big data to analyze and match the ability model of the enrolled students, and conduct the first round of campus interviews according to the results. Students who pass the interview need to go to the first-line rural schools for 3-6 months of teaching practice and accept the assessment of two-way selection, teaching practice tutors and career development tutors. Successful candidates will attend the final round of interviews to determine the final shortlist.
In view of the application conditions, Yu said that he needs to have the following three points: first, he should have a sense of educational mission, be able to break through the restrictions of rural conditions and serve rural education continuously and steadily within five years of funding; The second is to have professional teaching ability and the quality of continuous learning and improvement, to provide quality education for rural children and help them grow up happily; Third, they have the ability of leadership and teamwork, and have the potential to lead the development of regional education and become future educators.
According to the introduction of Ma Yun Public Welfare Foundation, the plan aims to improve the talent structure of rural teachers and promote the development of rural education by encouraging outstanding normal graduates to join rural education and helping them realize their personal values in rural areas.
Ma Yun: It is an opportunity for normal students.
"At present, many targeted projects and free teacher education projects for rural areas are not particularly successful. There are only two reasons, one is poor material treatment, and the other is lack of sense of identity. " Gao, a researcher at the National School of Education Administration, was introduced in an interview with the media.
A sample survey conducted by Beijing Normal University on 20 15 shows that problems such as low income, lack of resources for career promotion and strong sense of loneliness still restrict the development of rural young teachers and affect their professional attraction.
In addition, on June 9th, earlier, 165438, the Ministry of Education issued the Special Supervision Report on the Opening of School in Autumn 20 17, proposing to optimize the structure of teachers, implement the rural teachers' support plan in depth, and strengthen rural teachers' training.
According to the introduction of Ma Yun Foundation, Ma Yun's rural normal student program came into being under the above background.
Ma Yun believes that the project will become an opportunity for normal students and young people, and it is also an opportunity for rural education to catch up with the city. "It is difficult to change urban education, and it can be icing on the cake at most, but going to the countryside is a timely help. If normal students participate in building the future of rural areas in China, they will have the opportunity to create history. "
He said that the aging age structure and knowledge structure of rural teachers led to the weakness of rural education in China. "But, where there is a problem, there is an opportunity. Rural education is likely to become the best breakthrough in China's education reform. "
This is the third project initiated by Ma Yun's rural education plan after the rural teacher plan and the rural principal plan.
Qin Yuyou, deputy dean of China Rural Education Development Research Institute of Northeast Normal University, believes that there is a logical connection between the projects of Ma Yun's rural education plan-rural normal students plan is to inject new impetus into rural education, rural teachers plan is to improve education level, and rural principals plan is to promote rural principals from the perspective of leadership, thus affecting more teachers. "These projects show obvious continuity and systematicness and are carefully designed."
