Research On The Professional Development Of Primary And Secondary School Mental Health Education Teachers

Since the 1980s, some provinces and cities launched the campaign of mental health education for the primary and secondary school students, which significantly improved the mental quality of the students and achieved good results. To further strengthen the mental health education in primary and secondary school, Ministry of Education issued"Several Suggestions on the Strengthening of Primary and Secondary School Mental Health Education"and"Guidelines of Primary and Secondary School Mental Health Education". Since then, the cause of mental health education in our country begins to flourish. While there have been relatively more research achievements on correcting the mental problems and developing mental quality of students, less study on the mental health education teachers.The existing strategies on professional development of mental health education teachers are mostly from a macro perspective, which attaches more importance on theoretical research and less on the research of practical experience, and emphasizes more on the strategies of external protection, less strategies of individual practice, as a result, leading to the situation of relatively lacking the specific instructions for professional development of mental health education teachers. Based on the existing research results and literature review, using literature analysis, case study method and drawing on practical experience, this study discussed the professional development demands for mental health education teachers and carried out case studies and characteristic analysis on mental health education teachers, and based on this, we constructed a workable, replicable model for professional development of mental health education teachers.The specific structure of the article: Chapter 1 : Introduction Part, in which we introduce the research background, research review, research significance and research design of the subject; Chapter 2: discussion on national and individual demands of professional development for mental health education teachers and the basic information, business background, continuing education and daily work of the mental health education teachers; Chapter 3: conduct case study of Yang Jingping and Zhao Shijun-two mental health education teachers to introduce the performance and achievements of two teachers'professional development, show episodes of professional development, analyze and discuss their successful experience; Chapter 4: conduct characteristics analysis on professional development of mental health education teachers, introduce job duties they perform for school, students, teachers and parents; analyze the basic requirements of mental health education teachers, including a comprehensive ability of knowledge , skilled expertise and specific personality characteristics, on the implementation of the work of mental health education teachers, focus on the content of mental health education and the mental education activities courses what are different from other disciplines; Chapter 5: construct professional development modes for mental health education teachers, including training mode of colleges and universities, in-service training model, education and scientific research model and team growth model; Chapter 6: summarize the entire paper and look forward to the future development of mental health education, call for the relative authorities, scholars, mental health experts to solve practical problems of psychological health education teachers encounter, and express ardent expectations about personal follow-up research, and collaborative research.
