History is a profound, serious and vivid subject. How to create a positive classroom teaching atmosphere and create a certain situation for students to actively participate in teaching is a problem that history teachers should focus on solving.

First, pay attention to the influence of teachers' emotions on students.

Because of the seriousness of teaching content and the sense of cognitive distance, teachers' mood and state are particularly important in history teaching. If the teacher is a little slack, students will have a state of emotional suppression. Therefore, teachers should pay attention to adjusting their teaching emotions and carry out teaching activities with full spirit and excitement. Only when the teacher is in a happy state can students engage in learning activities with excitement and actively cooperate with the teacher's teaching. When teachers and students form a good emotional and psychological field in teaching, classroom teaching will get twice the result with half the effort.

In addition to teachers' own cultural literacy and emotional control ability as professional literacy, the use of teachers' teaching language (including body language) is also very important to the creation of classroom atmosphere. For a history teacher, it is necessary to accumulate full teaching emotions, carefully design his own teaching language and use it properly in the teaching process. For example, when talking about founding ceremony, Chairman Mao solemnly announced on the Tiananmen rostrum that "the Central People's Government of People's Republic of China (PRC) was established today". The author tried to speak in strong Hunan dialect and encouraged students to try, which immediately improved the enthusiasm of students to participate in the classroom and received unexpected results. At the same time, teaching should be supplemented by necessary body language such as manners, gestures, eyes and expressions, and the language information and emotional information of teachers' teaching should be strengthened, and the good effect of "silence is better than sound" will be achieved.

Second, pay attention to the diversity of teaching forms.

History class should not only use narrative method, conversation method and explanation method, but also choose and use various methods according to the actual situation of students' ability level, teaching content and teaching tasks. For example, when it comes to burning the Yuanmingyuan, we can quote the contents of a letter written by the French writer Hugo in 186 1: "One day, two robbers walked into the Yuanmingyuan, one robbed something, the other set fire ... The winner filled his pockets, the other filled his baskets, and then they returned to Europe holding hands and smiling. This is the history of those two robbers. Teachers can easily ask the names of the two robbers, thus personifying and visualizing the aggression of the British and French allied forces in the Second Opium War, making students remember it in their hearts and cultivating their feelings of love and hate. For some difficult knowledge points, you can also help students remember historical facts accurately through self-compiled formulas. For example, the order of dynasties in China can be compiled into the following formula: "The Yellow Emperor Yao and Shun Zhou, Qin and the Three Kingdoms; Jin Dynasty, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Sui and Tang Dynasties, Five Dynasties, Song and Yuan Dynasties, Ming and Qing Dynasties. "

In addition, lectures, story meetings, knowledge contests, debates and other activities can also be held. For example, when studying the modern history of China, the author organized students to discuss "how to evaluate Li Hongzhang". The author introduced some famous people's comments on Li Hongzhang. For example, Liang Qichao once commented: "I respect Li Hongzhang's talent. My knowledge is different from Li Hongzhang's. I feel sad for Li Hongzhang's experience." Tang Degang, a Chinese-American historian, said: "Only Li Hongzhang and Zhou Enlai are the only people who have not read the modern history of China for decades and deeply feel that modern China can be called a' diplomat'. In a decadent and paralyzed imperial system, Li Hongzhang was bound by a' woman's lovely son' and could not give full play to his strengths, and finally ended up as a tragic figure. " In the process of equal communication with students, teachers and students reached an understanding: we should persist in seeking truth from facts, put historical figures under the historical conditions at that time, and not be demanding or flattering our predecessors. Through such classroom discussion and communication, it is helpful to improve students' ability to evaluate historical figures and experience the fun of teacher-student interaction.

Third, pay attention to the organic combination of history and various disciplines.

Teachers should be good at organically combining history with various disciplines and infiltrating each other to form a framework, integration and networking of knowledge. For example, Mao Zedong's "Qinyuanchun"? There is such a passage in Snow: "In the past, Qin Huang was a martial artist, but he lost his literary talent. Tang Zong Song Zu, slightly less coquettish. A generation of tianjiao, Genghis Khan, only knows how to shoot an eagle with a bow. "When talking about feudal emperors, you can quote them to increase literary talent and enliven the atmosphere. Talking about the Long March of the Chinese Workers and Peasants Red Army, can its road map be used for the Mao Zedong Long March? " Seven methods "to express:" The Red Army is not afraid of the expedition, and Qianshan is only idle. Wuling makes waves, and Wumeng takes mud pills. Jinsha River is warm in the clouds and cliffs, and Dadu Bridge is cold with the cross rail. I prefer the snow in the mountains. After the three armies, I want to make a full face. "Heroic poetry can not only increase students' reverence for the fearless and optimistic spirit of the older generation of proletarian revolutionaries headed by Mao Zedong, but also vividly show the Long March route. In addition, history, geography, politics and other disciplines can be organically combined to stimulate students' interest in learning with knowledge networks.

History class should talk about "life", teach "life" and learn the historical knowledge of "life" about "death". In the classroom, we should entertain teaching, explain and learn, which not only completes the teaching task, but also cultivates students' ability, making students happy and gaining new knowledge.
