This year’s flowers are better than last year’s flowers
The past year of 2009 was a time for our school to better establish its educational positioning, better utilize the advantages of professional schools, and more quickly seize the development opportunities of secondary vocational education. year.
Give more emphasis on art education. Art education is the true nature of our school. Over the past year, we have intensified the construction of backbone majors such as art, music, and dance, giving full play to the advantages of professional, scientific, and efficient preparation for the art college entrance examination. Based on the brilliant results achieved in the 2009 art college entrance examination, the 2010 music The college entrance examination for , dance, and fine arts majors has ushered in a harvest season again: 41 undergraduates in fine arts majors have passed the joint entrance examination, with a passing rate of 73.2%. 17 students have passed the professional examinations of professional institutions such as Hubei Institute of Fine Arts; music major Yue Shijun Wuhan Conservatory of Music ranked 3rd in the country, Zhang Qiong ranked 13th in the country, and Liu Jingyun ranked 40th in the country. Eight students majoring in dance passed the professional examination of Wuhan Conservatory of Music, including Wu Ting ranked second in the province, and three other students passed the professional examination of Guangxi Art Institute.

There are not only internationally renowned artists like Li Mingshun who have worked overseas for many years and have their own gallery in Manhattan, New York, but also national young performing artists like Chen Shu who have been famous for a long time. More examples include: Qin Zhao, a graduate of the 2004 class, fought his way into the Fast Boy Finals in May 2010, and Gong Zeyi, a graduate of the 2008 class, won the CCTV Avenue of Stars monthly championship in May 2010, becoming a well-known music star and rising star in Huangshi. typical.
Pay more attention to technical education. In the past year, the school has been employment-oriented and market-oriented, and has invested more energy and financial resources in developing majors such as mold fitter, machining, and electromechanical technology. Technical education has further established an educational philosophy aimed at cultivating comprehensive vocational abilities. At the same time, we make full use of both on-campus and off-campus resources to explore various school-running models such as academic education, social training, and school-enterprise cooperation. We have successively cooperated with Huangshi Manjing Hotel, Huangshi Real Estate Association, Nanjing Military Region Hot Spring Resort, Xinjiang Bole City Fuxin School, etc. Jointly running schools has continued to strengthen school-running cooperation with traditional employment enterprises in Shanghai, Zhuhai and other places, and at the same time tried to open flexible schooling classes for rural surplus people in the form of part-time work-study. Construct a curriculum system with professional abilities as the core, create a teaching environment characterized by the integration of work and learning, and develop modular teaching materials based on curriculum integration. Cultivate more skilled and comprehensive talents.
Pay more attention to student growth. Over the past year, the school has combined the overall moral education construction plan with the goal of becoming adults and talents, and has built a series of activity platforms to comprehensively temper the overall quality of students. Undertaken and participated in the "Huangshi Art School Cup" "The Motherland is in My Heart" recitation competition for secondary vocational students in the city.

Pay more attention to the professional development of teachers. High-quality teachers are an important pillar for running a good school and are also the core competitiveness of the school. Our school has formulated a teacher improvement plan and a famous teacher project construction plan, and formulated incentives for teachers to improve their academic qualifications and cross-professional training to help teachers deepen and broaden their professional knowledge, improve their learning ability and scientific research ability, and encourage double-qualified teachers growing up.
At the same time, various forms of training are carried out, mainly through training on educational ideals, educational beliefs, educational realm, and educational pursuits, to promote teachers’ self-reflection and self-examination and reflection on teaching practices, promote their own professional maturity, and continuously surpass themselves and develop. self. Let each teacher grow into an outstanding teacher who is loved by students, recognized by peers, and satisfied by society. Over the past year, Comrade Fan Suying of our school has won the 2009 May 1st Labor Medal of Huangshi City, Comrades Wang Changjiang and Liu Chun have won the honorary titles of the city's outstanding educators and outstanding teachers in 2009, and teachers Yan Wu and Hu Xuewen have been awarded the backbone teachers of Huangshi City.

More actively promote the reform of teaching models. Give more emphasis to the cultivation of students' practical learning ability and knowledge transformation ability, and more effectively improve the quality of classroom teaching.
While fully operating key majors, our school also gives full play to the resource advantages of vocational schools, forming an art-oriented school-running feature that interpenetrates art education and skills education. Not only are music, art, and dance professional cultural courses and art professional courses set up on a 6:4 basis, but other majors in the school, including kindergarten teachers, tourism, hotel management, marketing, etc., offer music, dance, physical education, art, handicrafts, etiquette, etc. Courses such as self-cultivation continuously demonstrate the charm of art to students. The school arranges art appreciation classes every week to provide students with artistic influence and inspiration, open up their artistic wisdom, activate their artistic cells, and achieve the educational goals of becoming adults and talents with "rituals and music" through art.
At the same time, explore at a higher level to change the current situation of over-emphasis on knowledge transfer, over-emphasis on subject-based, over-emphasis on receptive learning, rote memorization, and mechanical training, and explore changes in course functions, improvement of course structure, and reform of course content. , Improve students' learning methods, cultivate students' active participation, willingness to explore, and diligence, cultivate students' ability to collect and process information, acquire new knowledge, analyze and solve problems, communicate and cooperate, and establish and quality Quality monitoring, evaluation and examination systems consistent with educational concepts have enabled curriculum reform to bear fruit in our school.
More highlight the advantages of public education. Today, when art education is increasingly cast as a utilitarian color, our school consciously strengthens the sense of responsibility of public education, puts more emphasis on social benefits, and gives more instead of chasing economic benefits. During the autumn enrollment of 2009, the school bucked the trend and established a "Rainbow Class" in dance and art. Students with good foundation in cultural courses and artistic literacy were offered zero tuition. This alone will cost the school more than 100,000 yuan a year. In 2010, we will continue to recruit the zero-tuition three-year art rainbow class and the six-year dance rainbow class, which will be another major opportunity for those students who love art, have a good foundation in cultural courses, and have average family backgrounds to realize their life dreams.
In order to develop art education in 2009, despite financial difficulties, the school teaching buildings were demolished, relocated, renovated and constructed according to the needs of art education. In March 2010, the campus landscape was launched. construction project. The school's overall planning and construction plan will take three years to build a performing arts center, a performing arts plaza, and further improve the functional rooms for art education such as piano rooms, painting studios, practice halls, exhibition halls, and audio-visual listening rooms. The accelerated progress and intensification of campus infrastructure construction will bring our school's educational level to a higher level and better adapt to the modern education needs of Huangshi City's artistic talents and technicians.
In 2010, Huangshi will hold the first Mining and Metallurgy Culture Tourism Festival. Mining and metallurgy culture is the historical accumulation of Huangshi. The cultural construction of a city is inseparable from the prosperity of modern literature and art. The Mining and Metallurgical Culture Festival will also be an opportunity for our school to serve the society and contribute to Huangshi. All our teachers and students are carefully preparing and actively participating in this city-wide large-scale event. We will also cultivate more talents with artistic literacy and both ability and political integrity for the development of Huangshi, and strive to realize the school’s mission of “developing teachers, achieving students, and serving the society”.
Art shapes the quality of life and achieves the future
Reporter’s Notes: In 2010, Huangshi Art School won the title of “National Advanced Unit for School Art Education” and the Third National Primary and Secondary School Art Exhibition. Silver Award, Hubei Province Second Primary and Secondary School Art Exhibition Activity All-Around Gold Award and two First Prizes, Huangshi City Primary and Secondary School Art Exhibition Activity All-Around Award and Single First Prize, Huangshi City Grassroots Mass Cultural Activities Advanced Unit and other honorary titles.
It is not easy to achieve these results, because the students who attend Huangshi Art School come from a complex and diverse background, have uneven foundations, and have obvious personality differences. Huangshi Art School creatively implements the educational philosophy of educating people, putting morality first, focusing on ability, and all-round development. Based on art education, adult and talent education with professional quality and professional ability as the core, through classroom penetration and teacher setting an example , artistic practice and other channels, highlighting personality development and reflecting differentiated education, and achieved good results. Not only did Gong Zeyi emerge as an example of successfully becoming the runner-up in the third section of the 2010 CCTV "Avenue of Stars" finals, but also more students Life confidence and learning joy are found in art learning and practice, which effectively promotes the healthy growth of students.
Scene 1: On the stage of Shanghai Oriental Art Center: In the storm, a little petrel kept flapping its wings and fighting the storm. Unfortunately, it was injured during the repeated struggle, but under the careful care and strict supervision of the petrel, , the storm exercised the young petrel's wings, and finally spread its wings to fly high. A group of happy female soldiers stopped in the middle of playing, silently meditating: People always have to be a little energetic!
The camera flashes back to the summary and commendation meeting of the original dance program "Flying" in Practice Hall No. 5 of Huangshi Art School:
Principal Guan Wenwen said: Maybe more people come from an artistic point of view Comment on the success of this program, but I think that the reason why this program has caused such a big response may be more of everyone’s subconscious reflection on today’s educational concepts: in the era of only children, on the one hand, parents put aside all their unfulfilled wishes and regrets All attention is paid to the growth of children, and children are given unattainable expectations for success; on the other hand, children's material needs are met without limit, resulting in children being selfish, unfeeling, extremely unstable psychologically and emotionally, with poor endurance, and slightly Frustration will be unbearable and learning burnout will occur prematurely. Because of this, it is even more necessary for us to inject the educational functions of hard-working adults and healthy talents into all aspects of teaching, carry forward the theme of facing real life and improving oneself, encourage students to face setbacks bravely, cultivate the qualities of courage, optimism, and self-confidence and form a positive attitude. attitude towards life. The program "Flying" uses artistic techniques to explain this educational concept. Little Haiyan grows up healthily amidst repeated setbacks. The love and care of Haiyan is subordinate to Xiao Haiyan's long-term growth needs. Love is based on Tao and love. Strictness is true love.
Excerpts from student compositions: Li Xiaojun from the third-grade dance class: Dance is an elegant art. It can purify people's mood, cultivate their sentiments, and exercise their perseverance, but who knows how to dance wonderfully? How much hard work goes into it and how many setbacks it encounters!
It has been more than a year since I came to Huangshi Art School, and now is the most stressful time in the third grade of junior high school. When I was in the second grade of junior high school, my mother sent me here because of my love for dance. As a transfer student, I slowly adapted to the hardship of learning dance with the help and care of my teachers and classmates.
Living on campus is interesting and troublesome, but living on campus has improved my ability to live independently. In the dormitory, I have to wash clothes, fold quilts, organize desks... every day. This taught me things I couldn't learn at home.
Learning dance is hard work. Regardless of spring, summer, autumn or winter, the class time of 6:20 in the morning will not change. First, practice morning exercises on an empty stomach, then eat breakfast, and then continue to practice, day after day. So true. For more than a year, my dancing has slowly caught up with everyone else's. Although it is difficult, long-term persistence has not only allowed me to develop a good habit of getting up early and going to bed early, but also made us, immature girls, have amazing achievements. resilience and perseverance. No matter it is cold winter or hot summer, we wear thin training clothes and practice rolling and kicking repeatedly in the practice hall. Even if the ligament is strained or the fall is black and blue, we apply some medicine and continue to perform the skills. We have tears and sweat, and more It is joy and success.
Comments: The fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. How can you see a rainbow without experiencing wind and rain? No one can succeed casually. The road of life is tortuous and vivid, and it is also difficult and repeated. Huangshi Art School infiltrates the education of hard work and healthy growth into every aspect of teaching, and achieves a solid future for students by shaping healthy and tough personalities.
Scene 2: In the small outdoor theater of Huangshi Art School, under the attention of hundreds of teachers and classmates in the school, a little girl walked calmly to the stage, took a deep breath in front of many classmates and teachers, and expressed her confidence I played the guzheng "Lin Chong's Night Run" on the ground, and the sound of the piano was exciting. Gradually, my mind was entangled with the emotions before and after Lin Chong's night run: confusion, confusion, struggle, breaking through the siege... Isn't this what I was two years ago? ?
The camera flashes back to two years ago: After another mock exam, several middle school students, both male and female, wandered listlessly on the street. Their confidence and dignity were completely destroyed by repeated exam failures. They also go to school on time and go home on time, but their minds are not in the classroom, and sometimes they are not even physically in the classroom. When they see other students listening carefully in the classroom, they feel full of fear and confusion.
Excerpts from student compositions: Lu Qian from the senior high school music class: Two years ago, I was a willful child who didn’t understand anything like most of my classmates. I didn’t study hard and had no goals, just like a dog that didn’t know The lost bird is looking for its fulcrum in the vast sky. So, I was confused and transferred to this completely unfamiliar school. Looking back, I realized that it was this choice that gave me a new beginning, and my life became rich and colorful from then on.
Here, you can grasp the practical learning effect and daily progress. Even if the teacher does not point it out, you know exactly where you have mastered and what you have not mastered. Self-confidence is always important in learning music. Little by little, my face that should have been sunny returned, and I no longer had the feeling of emptiness, boredom, and helplessness that I had before. Under the careful guidance of the teachers, I found the direction of life in the ancient rhyme of the guzheng. Whenever I am in a bad mood, I play the guzheng and integrate myself into the world of music, and all my worries disappear; whenever I perform a piece of music with my heart, I will transcend myself. In my imagination, I am the smart musical notes, the towering mountains, and the music. Gurgling water. When I play guzheng every day, I feel at ease, confident, fulfilled and happy.
Scene 3: In the electronic classroom in Building 1 of Huangshi Art School, there are a row of teachers and many students sitting under the stage. They are the judges and the audience. Outside the door, more than 20 male and female students are nervous. I was waiting to enter the classroom to participate in the student union’s election speech. The speeches of the candidates were various and brilliant. Some were witty and smart, and some were honest, solid and steady. In the end, a classmate named He Xiang from the high school art class with a sincere face won out and became the new student union president.
Camera flashback: Three years ago, when the high school entrance examination scores were announced, a boy bowed his head and remained silent in the face of his parents’ scolding, feeling at a loss. Although he had been mentally prepared since the high school entrance examination ended on June 22, But it was still too much to bear when it came to it. Where should I go now to finish the last period of professional study?
Excerpts from student compositions: Senior Grade 1 (Class 1) He Xiang: When I was in the third year of junior high school, I failed the high school entrance examination and stayed at home for a long time. I had given up hope and planned to study technical majors and work as soon as possible. Later, an unexpected piece of news made me overjoyed; some schools were recruiting high school art majors and they could take the art exam. After much consideration, I came to Huangshi Art School to study art and started a new page in my life.
After I came to school, I found that the teachers were very responsible and the classmates were very innocent. I was also studying hard to make up for my failure in the high school entrance examination. In my later studies as an art major, I started from a blank piece of paper and could feel my progress every day. This is how I spent my first year of high school. When I was a sophomore in high school, I ran for the position of chairman of the school's student union. When I succeeded, thinking about how embarrassing it was that I almost didn't even go to school, tears of joy finally burst into my eyes.
The study of majors and cultural courses in senior high school is even more intense. In order to prepare for the professional joint examination, we conduct professional training. During the training days, we get up at 6:00 every day and start painting at 7:00. , in addition to eating and sleeping, I spend more than half of my time painting in the studio every day. My professional performance has improved greatly due to the teacher's careful guidance and my own hard work.
The joint entrance examination came as scheduled, and we waited uneasily. The results finally came out. We scored more than 200 points and passed the undergraduate level. When we heard the teacher say: "You passed," I have mixed feelings. I made a helpless choice three years ago. Three years ago, I had a blank piece of paper. I didn’t know what sketching, color, sketching, or projection, perspective, or proportion were. Today, I successfully passed the undergraduate course of the joint college entrance examination. This process not only allowed me to regain my dream of going to college after failing the high school entrance examination, but also taught me many principles of life. No matter what the starting point is, as long as you work hard and persevere, you will always be able to see the moon.
Comments: I am born with talents that will be useful. Self-confidence is a pillar that can hold up the vast spiritual sky. Self-confidence is a piece of sunshine that can dispel the shadows in front of the lost. Exam-oriented education destroys students’ self-confidence. Quality education It can help you regain your self-confidence. Huangshi Art School’s confidence education highlights personality development, allowing more students to regain their self-confidence and move forward with their heads held high again.
Scene 4: Huangshi Cihu Dream Theater: Huangshi Art School’s 2008 kindergarten teacher professional teaching report performance was held here. Sitting in the audience were principals and parents of major kindergartens in Huangshi city. The entire show was designed and performed by student organizations. They are good at dance, vocal music, and instrumental music, and the computer courseware, handicrafts, and art works are exquisite. They tell stories vividly, interpret emotions sincerely and movingly, and create games that are lively and innocent. Parents were astonished: in less than two years, the spoiled and lazy children they were usually familiar with turned out to be completely new and had a completely new look. They were all so excited that they couldn't contain themselves. The students' ability, confidence, talent, and demeanor won the praise of kindergarten deans. Many kindergartens signed employment agreements on the spot.
Excerpts from students’ letters: Liu Fei from the 2008 Kindergarten Class: In that fiery June of this year, we performed at the Cihu Dream Theater graduation report, reporting the skills we learned to teachers and parents. All the major kindergartens here sent people to watch and select their favorite future employees. I worked hard to express myself and wanted to give myself a satisfactory answer. Hard work always pays off. My performance was a success and the judges unanimously gave me the highest praise. After the performance, all the kindergartens in the city called for me, including the most famous Tianbao Kindergarten, which never recruits fresh graduates. But I want to go further, and I believe that as long as I work hard, I will have a better future!
Finally, I packed my bags, boarded the train, and headed south alone to pursue my dream. After arriving in Shenzhen, in this unfamiliar city, I went to the talent market every day to find suitable employers. But with little success. For a long time, I went out early and came back late. Sometimes I skipped several meals in a row just to get one more chance to apply for a job. Later, after being introduced online, I came to apply for a job at my current school. I like this school very much. From kindergarten to junior high school, there are more than 3,000 students and 210 faculty members. However, the threshold for schools to recruit kindergarten teachers is a college diploma, but I only have a technical secondary school diploma. With my solid foundation in the art school, award-winning experience, and good performance in the trial lectures, the school admitted me and I finally found a job based on my ability. Very happy.
The school leaders and teachers all think highly of me. On the evening of September 4th, the kindergarten director informed me to prepare a program for a Teacher’s Day celebration party. The time was too tight. I had to work during the day and organize class materials at night. I only had the little time left to check information and write the manuscript. I wrote and wrote, and I could only sleep for four or five hours almost every night. Before going to bed, I still used my mobile phone to select suitable background music. On the day of the performance, I almost cried out from the manuscript. After calming down, I walked on the stage... At the end of the performance, after a brief pause, as the venue erupted into thunderous applause, I knew that I had succeeded. I felt really excited at that moment, and my efforts were recognized.
Excerpts from student letters: Fengying from the 08-level tourism class: It has been a month since I took a group internship during the summer vacation. On the afternoon of August 16, the planner called me to the office and arranged for me to bring a group there the next day. One-day trip to Tianjing Mountain. I am very excited to have another opportunity to lead a group independently. Immediately obtained the group departure form, itinerary, group payment, personnel list, tourist opinion form, etc., and immediately prepared the group departure information and process arrangements. Everything is very confident, and I feel a little familiar with it.
In the early morning of the 17th, the driver saw so many cars on the road and said: It will probably be late. I quickly called the tour leader and asked them to wait.
When the car and I arrived at the meeting point, the tourists rushed to the car door, making noisy noises, and loudly criticized me, "What did your travel company do? Why was it late? Now it has caused a car accident... People have been admitted to the hospital." ...Everyone has run away... I want to make a complaint. What is your manager’s phone number? ..." I was stunned for a moment, so I calmed down and said, "Don’t be impatient, please tell me what is going on. ?”. The team leader came over and explained the situation: "While we were waiting for the bus, a tourist went to have breakfast and was hit by numbness. Now he has been sent to the hospital and the perpetrator was taken away by the police. If you had come a minute earlier, you would have There is no such thing anymore.” As soon as the tour leader finished speaking, the tourists began to vent their anger on me again. I calmed down and said, "The top priority is how the person is doing. Please get in the car. We will go to the hospital to see the person first. We will then talk about the itinerary, whether it is postponed or cancelled. We will wait until we see the person." The tourists all fell silent and got on the bus one by one. Along the way, I felt nervous and at a loss, and I even forgot to call the company's accounting department. I have never encountered such a thing before, and the book only talks about some empty principles in general terms, which does not seem to be of any help in dealing with the current crisis. The ancients said that reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. It makes sense. Real knowledge can be gained through personal experience in actual life and work.
When I arrived at the hospital, I bought a basket of fruit and brought it up to see the injured tourist. The condition was not very serious. After coming down, I asked everyone for their opinions: Should the trip be postponed or cancelled? The tour leader and everyone said no and we should continue with the itinerary. Then he said to me: "Everyone was too anxious just now and spoke a little too loudly. Please don't mind if it costs you money." At that moment, I was extremely moved.
Comments: I hate the book when I put it to use. I don’t know the difficulty until it’s done. I didn’t learn any real skills in school. I either can’t seize the opportunity in the workplace, or if I seize it temporarily, it’s difficult to gain a foothold. Comprehensive comprehensive quality and solid professional ability are the solid foundation for success in the workplace.
