1983165438+10. In October, the Third Annual Meeting of Chinese Teaching Research Association of China Education Society was held in Beijing. Among the participants were famous educational authorities such as Ye Shengtao, Lv Shuxiang, Sulingyang and Bai Jiefu, as well as educational experts from all provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions and specially invited representatives from Hong Kong, about 100 people.

Wei Shusheng, who is only 33 years old, was lucky enough to attend this educational event. At that time, he was a Chinese teacher in No.3 Middle School in Panshan County, Liaoning Province. Although he has been awarded the title of "advanced class teacher" by the Liaoning Provincial Department of Education, "model worker" by the Liaoning Provincial Government and "advanced individual who teaches with five stresses and four beauties" by the Ministry of Education and the National Education Union, he is still an obscure junior at the grassroots level.

However, on the third day of the meeting, Wei Shusheng's impromptu speech at the panel discussion was only 10 minutes, which attracted the attention of the education circles in China.

Wei Shusheng is talking about moral education. Although this seems to be a very old topic, it is difficult to have new ideas and get a buzz, but it has won unanimous praise in the group. He didn't expect to be unanimously elected as speaker at the plenary meeting the next day.

At the plenary meeting the next day, Wei Shusheng's speech further aroused the keen interest of the delegates. Everyone's speaking time at the conference is limited, and they can only speak for 20 minutes at most. Even venerable old-timers are no exception. However, after he spoke for more than 65,438+00 minutes, the delegates handed the notes to the moderator and asked for an extension of Wei Shusheng's speaking time. He got the biggest privilege of the whole meeting and spoke for 30 minutes.

When Wei Shusheng stepped down from the podium, warm and lasting applause and irresistible admiration were the truest evaluations.

The speech at the meeting is still going on, but Wei Shusheng has been surrounded by reporters, editors of several newspapers and representatives of some provinces and cities, asking him to write a manuscript, asking him to give lectures and discussing with him many problems that he failed to implement on the stage.

Just after the morning meeting, the presidium of the meeting held an interim meeting. After research, a temporary notice was posted at noon: the activity scheduled for that evening was cancelled, and Comrade Wei Shusheng introduced the experience of education reform in detail.

So that night, Wei Shusheng gave a more detailed speech to all the delegates for two hours. His speech caused a sensation in the whole conference and was called "explosive experience introduction" by Chinese teaching experts.

On the morning of the end of the annual meeting, Wei Shusheng was dragged on the bus by his colleagues in Jixian County, Tianjin. Please give a report on teaching and educating people. He was not sent back to Beijing until 9 pm.

The next morning, more than 0/000 teachers in Beijing/KLOC took up the class time and entered the auditorium of Beijing Audio-visual Education Center with the tickets printed with "Comrade Wei Shusheng's Report in No.3 Middle School in Panshan County, Liaoning Province".

In the afternoon, although Wei Shusheng had bought a train ticket to leave Beijing at night, she was invited to the grand staircase classroom of Beijing Normal University and talked about the darkness outside and the bright lights inside. ...

Since then, Wei Shusheng's teaching demonstration, teaching reform report, introduction of educational experience and rambling about life philosophy have spread all over China.

Here are several sets of thought-provoking statistics:

1984, Wei Shusheng spent 132 days abroad and gave more than 60 lectures in 7 provinces 1 1 cities; During my 233 days at school, I accepted interviews from more than a dozen news organizations, handled more than 500 letters, received 13 visits from provinces, cities and counties, and gave open classes to more than 5,000 teachers from more than a dozen provinces and cities.

From the end of 1992 to the beginning of the following year, Wei Shusheng attended 16 conference in more than 20 cities, including Beijing, Shenyang, Henan, Yulin, Wuzhou, Guilin, Shantou, Huaiyin and Yinchuan, and gave 48 lectures, with a round trip of more than 40,000 kilometers.

On July 27th, 1993, Wei Shusheng finished his class in Guilin, went directly to the airport after the meeting, and then went to Shanghai and Wuxi. I finished my class in Wuxi on July 28th and drove to Zaozhuang overnight. Arrived in Zaozhuang at 2 am on the 29th, and talked for a day at 36 degrees after dawn. I arrived in Qingdao on the 30th to give a lecture. After that, he gave lectures in Beijing and Lanzhou, and then returned to Beijing to give lectures.

During the summer vacation of 1994, Wei Shusheng visited 12 provinces. I went to Shandong first, then to Inner Mongolia, and gave two lectures to two cadres who were not in the education system, Jimo and Hohhot. Then I stopped in Baotou, Qinhuangdao, Chongqing, Dachuan, Wuhan, Kunming, Shenzhen, Guilin, Nanchang, yingtan, Huangshan, Hangzhou and Nanjing.

During the 7-day National Day holiday from June, 5438 to October, 2007, Wei Shusheng spent it like this:

On the afternoon of September 30th, I set out from Panjin City, Liaoning Province and arrived at Shenyang Taoxian Airport.

Wei Shusheng's travel arrangements to all parts of the country are mostly based on holidays, mostly by plane or car at night, and reports during the day. His report time is usually more than three hours, and the longest is five or six hours. No matter how many hours he talks, he always sticks to the end. At the end of each report, one after another asked for autographs, photos and discussions. Wei Shusheng is quick-witted, and almost never thinks about his rest. When I accompanied Wei Shusheng to give lectures in Guizhou and Henan provinces, I deeply felt the tension and hardship of his schedule.

From 1983 to 2007, Wei Shusheng, as an amateur education lecturer, traveled all over 3/kloc-0 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macao, and more than 200 cities in some countries and regions where Chinese is popular in Southeast Asia. He has taught more than 2,000 times for people from all walks of life, and set up a Chinese teaching demonstration class 1000. As for foreign colleagues who receive lectures in his class, it is even more common all the year round.

While traveling around the country, Wei Shusheng published 55 books written and edited by himself, with a total word length of more than 8 million words and a total circulation of more than 3 million copies.

Wei Shusheng's audience and readers also gave feedback to his reports and works in different ways. Some send him books, some send him articles, some send him articles, and some send him manuscripts. The most common form of feedback is to write to him. According to rough statistics, he has received more than 40,000 letters over the years. The letter area includes all provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions in China, Taiwan Province, Hong Kong, Macao, Japan and Malaysia. Among these strangers, there are students, teachers, workers, farmers, soldiers, cadres and parents of students who are engaged in different occupations. The contents of these letters are entrustment, expectation and suggestion; Some are eager to know the details of Wei Shusheng's work and study, some care about the details of his family life, and some ask him to write a preface, revise the manuscript, evaluate the composition and approve the homework. They even ask children what to do if they don't listen, how to treat their diseases and how to change their gambling behavior. ...

With the great charm of a successful educator, Wei Shusheng conquered students and teachers, as well as millions of listeners and readers, and his influence far exceeded the education circle.

The Party, the country and the people have given Wei Shusheng great honor and encouragement: he has successively won the titles of "Top Ten Outstanding Youth in China", "National Excellent Class Teacher", "National Excellent Educator", "National Model Worker", "National May 1st Labor Medal", "National Excellent party member" and "National Excellent Party Worker", and is the 13th and 14th session of the China Production Party.

Wei Shusheng is not an ordinary educator, but an educator with selfless spirit, an educator with real spirit, an educator who would rather sacrifice himself than save others, and an educator worthy of our study. As the respected educator Lv Shuxiang said in 1986:

"Comrade Wei Shusheng is not an ordinary educator. He is determined to devote himself to education and has a selfless spirit, which is not something that ordinary people can do, nor can ordinary educators do. He is thinking of all the students, and he is willing to educate all the students well. One student is not at ease if he can't teach well. He regards students as more important than himself, and he can tolerate all kinds of inconveniences and difficulties in life in order to educate these students one by one. This is a true spirit of * * * production, which can also be said to be the spirit of religious people: sacrifice yourself to save others. This spirit is worth learning. I am ashamed that I didn't know Comrade Wei Shusheng earlier. If I were half younger, I would definitely worship him as a teacher and learn from him. "

The times need more Wei Shusheng, the motherland needs more Wei Shusheng, the people need more Wei Shusheng and all walks of life need more Wei Shusheng. I hope this book can help readers understand Wei Shusheng and learn from Wei Shusheng. It helps readers get more truth, goodness and beauty, and get more self-transcendence and Excellence; It is helpful for readers to live a colorful and interesting life in an ordinary, plain and ordinary life, such as poetry and painting, singing and dancing, leisure and happiness.
