The Problems and Countermeasures of Implementing Educational Discipline for Rural Teachers

Educational discipline has received widespread attention in both practical and academic fields in recent years. By using the event sampling observation, multiple incidents of teacher education discipline were collected in a rural primary school in C County, H Province of China within one semester. Through analysis, the educational discipline in the school included three kinds: verbal discipline, behavioral discipline, and psychological discipline. Through interviews with relevant teachers and students, it was found that teachers have an insufficient understanding of relevant regulations, an inaccurate understanding of the connotation of educational discipline, a fear of using educational discipline, and an unclear basis for educational discipline when implementing it. The main reasons include that the school’s promotion of educational discipline policies is not sufficient, teachers lack active learning of relevant laws and regulations, some parents have misunderstandings about the implementation of educational discipline for teachers, and social public opinion has also had a negative impact. It suggests that schools should strengthen training and improve management systems, while teachers should strengthen learning and enhance cooperation in educating students. In addition, parents should enhance their identification and share the responsibility of educating children, and society should optimize the environment and enhance social awareness.
