Research On Participating In Class Rules’ Formulation Of Middle School Students

This paper adopts the investigation method in order to understand the students’ participation in making class rules based on the collection and analysis of previous related data with the researching method of literature. Some teachers from 4 middle schools in Henan province Chongqing City got interviewed. At the same time, a questionnaire was also carried among the students. The interviews of these teachers indicate that the class rules are generally made by the teachers themselves, and some class rules even remain unchanged for years. In addition, the statistics of the questionnaire analysis also show that, at this stage, most students are not satisfied with their own class rules which they think are too stringent and irrational. Unequal chances of involvement, lack of standardized participation, undefined scope of class rules formulation are all the dilemma students face. Through in-depth analysis of these problems, this paper finds out the reasons causing the problems and then puts forward the suggestions to optimize the students’ participation of making class rulesThis thesis consists of five parts. And the introduction part is mainly focused on the reasons of research topic, the significance of the research, concept definition, literature review, research ideas and research methods.The first part discusses the theoretical basis and value support of the middle school students’participation in making the class rules, and theoretical support includes the subject education and citizen education theories. Both of the two theories have approved the necessity of the students’participation. In the subject education theory, students are thought as the main body of education, which requires the students to participate in the process of education and become initiative. Citizen education theory considers from the students’future life and holds that we should instill the citizen consciousness in the current education to them so that they can better enter and adapt to the society. Allowing the students to participate in the class rules formulation is in full compliance with the requirements of the two education theories. Meanwhile, there is also value support for this, which exists in three aspects.
