For the optimization design of history and social work, the author thinks that it should be carried out from the following two aspects:
First, the design of history and social work should be life-oriented. History and Society is a course based on students' life experience, especially the study of "rural land management" in History and Society should be based on students' life practice. Practicality is a common weak link in middle school history and social teaching, and the practicality of students' homework is beyond teachers' thinking. Therefore, we should make full use of the subject resources of history and society, expand the elements of homework design, closely link the teaching content with social reality and personal life, optimize the design of subject course homework, and build an open and practical design system of history and social homework. Designing some practical homework such as social investigation and inquiry, fully mobilizing students' subjective initiative, allowing students to record their own practical investigation and inquiry process in an orderly manner, effectively enriching students' experience in social activities, is conducive to cultivating students' participation in social life and improving their social practical ability to solve practical problems. 1 For example, in the teaching of "environmental yellow card", I take students to visit some local scenic spots first, so that students can pay attention to the environmental problems in this area, especially on the banks of streets and rivers. And set up such a practical inquiry question: In order to let the students know more about their hometown, care about the society, participate in social practice, gain knowledge from it and exercise their ability, please make a social survey on the environmental situation of the town in groups. Requirements: ① Design a questionnaire, collect materials through investigation, understand the environmental changes in my hometown, think about myself and people's habits and behaviors, and seek solutions. ② Design an environmental protection advertisement or a warm reminder. (3) write an environmental protection proposal to the citizens of this town or a proposal to the town government. When evaluating the survey activities of each group, teachers should look at whether the questionnaire questions of each group are specific, whether the sentences are clear, whether the key points are prominent, whether the overall structure is complete and whether the questionnaire tasks can be completed. Whether the language of environmental advertising is concise and vivid, so as to influence people. Whether the environmental protection proposal conforms to the theme and is clear. When summing up this survey, let the group leader sum up the outstanding deeds of the group in organizing activities, collecting data, writing reports, etc., and then take the form of mutual evaluation within and between groups, and finally summarize this activity. Practice has proved that this kind of inquiry work, which is close to life and pays attention to practice, can arouse students' learning enthusiasm and stimulate their sense of participation and ownership. On the other hand, it has cultivated students' independent learning spirit, cooperative inquiry spirit and social practice ability, and achieved unexpected results in cultivating students' self-confidence, sense of accomplishment, sense of social responsibility and mission.
Second, the design of history and social work should be interesting. As the saying goes, "Interest is the best teacher." As long as they are interested, students' study and homework will change from burden to enjoyment. Rich and colorful life and social experiences often arouse students' strong curiosity and inquiry psychology, and become their motivation to learn history and society. Psychologists believe that interest is an individual's cognitive tendency to actively explore something. Russian educator ushinski pointed out: "Compulsory learning without the slightest interest will stifle students' desire to seek truth. "As long as it is interesting, students will like it, and they will work tirelessly and diligently. Interest is the internal motivation to promote students' learning and an emotional psychological behavior. Learning desire is an important motivation for students' learning activities. Once the internal motivation of students' learning is started, it will turn into a positive factor, that is, willingness to learn. Therefore, the teaching of history and society should stimulate students' interest in learning, and homework design should also pay attention to this feature. For example, when teaching the demarcation line of the third-level terrain in China and the demarcation line between the monsoon region and the non-monsoon region in China, students are required to make up simple stories in homophonic language so that people can remember these demarcation lines quickly. After discussion, a group of students made up the following story: I drove Kunlun Mountain, Qilian Mountain and Hengduan Mountain as brand-name cars developed by myself, and went to Taitai and Wuxue (taking Daxing 'anling, Taihang Mountain, Wushan Mountain and Xuefeng Mountain as two place names), and met a weirdo named Yin Da who could drink (congratulate) eight (eight) on the way. The rich imagination of this group of students is refreshing. Follow the students' ideas, and then I asked the whole class to find these mountains along their driving routes. The students soon found out.
