"Speak with memes.

Vasily Razumov, a literature teacher from Yaroslavl, was once inspired by the ideas of his colleague Sofia Lebedeva, “Teacher of the Year 2021” from St. Petersburg, who makes bright and engaging workbooks for lessons literature. Together with the Yaroslavl artist Anton Alekseev, Vasily began to make the same ones for his students. And he showed us what he did and told us why it was necessary. nine0003

Freedom for the teacher

Most literature textbooks evoke a range of emotions in teachers from irritation to outright boredom. The root of evil here is that the textbook imposes a certain reading: “Great-Russian-folk-blah-blah-blah”. The workbook frees you from the textbook. She herself, in fact, becomes such a textbook. When designing it, the teacher himself decides where he will focus and from what angle he will reveal the topic. The teacher himself determines the font, color, heading and format of the assignments of his notebook. The teacher himself determines how much time and effort he will spend on preparing the worksheet. nine0003 Vasily Razumov

Accessibility for everyone

Purely technically, a workbook requires a minimum of resources: you need a computer with Internet access and a color printer (I print my notebooks myself, but you can ask students to help). You can work in Designer or Canva editors, or you can do everything in ordinary PowerPoint. By the way, students also cope with this with a bang - they even developed workbooks for me and conducted a lesson on them on the topic "Innovation in the comedy of A. S. Griboedov." Even in such editors it is convenient to make infographics - we, for example, made one for the heroes of Onegin. nine0003

Omnivorous format

If you teach not literature, but still read up to this point, then you didn’t do it in vain: the workbook adjusts to the task of any subject. This is a very human format, and nothing human is alien to it: biology, history, mathematics - we all filled out official workbooks in these subjects while studying at school. What's stopping you from doing better? Within the framework of literature, it doesn’t matter whether we are studying the writer’s biography or questions of Pushkin’s poetics - the notebook will swallow everything. nine0003

Total immersion

Despite the fact that the format of such notebooks has been known for a long time, and many teachers make them themselves and even sell them, all this is a drop in the sea of ​​the education system. And therefore, when you bring such a notebook to the class, the return from the students is complete and instant. A beautiful worksheet is just nice to look at. You want to hold it in your hands, you want to take it home, and, of course, you want to understand what it is about. And that means reading this Onegin at last.

Looking at the monotonous text from the textbook, many guys simply do not make a connection between the concepts of "literature" and "beauty". The workbook allows you to return this connection. The result is unequivocal - complete immersion. I'm not talking about the fact that filling out a notebook goes in parallel with the lesson. So the student simply does not have time for either idleness or boredom. By the way, two sheets are consistently enough for me for a lesson or two. nine0003

Masking banality

Not everything we do at school is interesting to us. Sometimes you have to deal with the necessary routine. Well, how, for example, to do without a comparative description of Onegin and Lensky? Where to put this notorious two-column sign? It can be disguised. Here is how it is on this sheet with Onegin and Lensky:

In fact, all the same two columns, but the parameters for comparing heroes are beautifully divided into frames, and this does not cause boredom from the usual format. And it won't, because frames can be changed from table to table. Sometimes this allows you to mask the banality, and sometimes to understand that there is no banality. nine0003

Functional reading? It!

Recently, philologists have been stressed by the fact that reading should be functional. This implies that any text of a work of art must be inscribed in the context of the era when it was created. And, perhaps, it is even useful for understanding the text. Another question is what should a poor teacher do? How to enter the text into the context so that the student does not fall asleep? Here, perhaps, a workbook is one of such formats.

In the worksheets for the third chapter of "Eugene Onegin" I placed a frame in the form of a smartphone screen with a Google translator, only the translation is required there not from English into Russian, but from Tatiana's language into the language of her nanny, who obviously does not understand book expressions of his ward. Here is the context of relationships and mutual understanding (not the same!) nobles and peasants of the Pushkin era! nine0003

Semiotics, or why Olga is a lily of the valley

But still, a story with functional reading is just about a story. The workbook allows you to combine historical references with cultural ones and do it in a rather capacious way. For example, you can not only read the description of Tatyana's sister (Pushkin gives her only a couple of stanzas), but discuss why Olga "bloomed like a hidden lily of the valley, / Unknown in the deaf grass / Neither moths nor a bee." In a word, all types of references can be integrated into this format. nine0003

By the way, spoiler: “Lily of the valley is not just a traditional symbol of purity (Olga’s purity is a debatable issue). Pushkin focuses on the "closedness" of the flower, inaccessibility. Olga in the second chapter is closed from the outside world.

Draw something on Lensky

The golden rule of pedagogy is that the student must do what he wants, but he must want what the teacher requires. The student often wants to paint a black eye on this or that portrait. Therefore, comparing Onegin and Lensky, we completed the face of the latter. What is education here? Instead of lines and contours, it was necessary to use cliched lines of romantic poetry, the brainchild of which is Lensky himself. And from here it is not far to the characteristics of the character, and to the correlation of the concepts of "face" and "personality" at the most different levels. In a word, the depth of the task is obvious (or “on the face”?). Although, it would seem, the form is very hooligan. nine0003

In general, a workbook accepts any kind of creative assignment. From text and drawing to quilling and flower arrangement. We tried all this in class and at homework, and all this is about the first paragraph of this article - about freedom.

I turned your leaf!

When creating a worksheet, it is useful to remember that it is a sheet. And that he has space, and that this space can be used to amuse his inner methodist. Since we are talking about Onegin today, let's remember Tatiana's dream. This whole episode is connected with the motif of a mirror: in a dream, as in a mirror, the plot of the novel is reflected and reversed. Therefore, I do half of the questions on the sheet about Tatyana's dream upside down, and the students must guess what motive is responsible for this turning over. nine0003

Not only paper

A workbook is also good because it can be used to integrate links to different types of text onto paper. For example, I post QR codes with links to lectures from Arzamas, Lotman's commentary, or articles by other scientists. This technique makes the teenager's gadget an ally of the teacher.

In your own words

It's the same story about official wording from textbooks and manuals. Where there is no strength to digest them, the same workbook comes to the rescue. In it, you can, without betraying yourself, speak with a student in the language that is organic to you. If it is convenient for you to speak in memes and this corresponds to your pedagogical task, then speak in memes. A workbook is a field for finding a common language between a teacher and a student. nine0003

For me, for example, it's natural to call homework "homework". True, the school administration washed my head for this, and the suffix "-echk-" was replaced by "-enk-". It turned out "homemade". Do not load the guys with this heavy "homework".

The question of language is always a question of balance: the teacher is looking for words that he likes and at the same time is accessible to the student. Here you can neither fly away to the empyrean, nor slide into familiarity. And yes, balance is a subtle art, but, they say, the freedom with which we started this text lives precisely at the edge of this art. nine0003

managing emotions in the lesson - Didaktor

01/12/2011 02/02/2018

Setting educational and educational tasks requires the teacher to be inventive and develop not only quantitative, but also qualitative criteria for evaluating their solution, a lot of emotional stress when conducting a lesson technological techniques to create the most comfortable for students emotional background training session. It is here that the professional suitability of the teacher is tested.

A teacher is a kind of showman who skillfully manages his emotions and the emotions of students, does not allow stressful situations at the lesson.

He can quickly recognize the mood of the guys by some, sometimes elusive, outward signs.

Himself skillfully uses facial expressions to portray surprise , bewilderment , indignation . And here it is also important that students, if necessary, can quickly recognize the mood of the teacher.

The teacher must skillfully switch the types of students' emotions. The lesson should not be dominated by one type of emotion. The one-pointedness of emotions dulls the feelings of students, their reaction to the situation proposed by the teacher. nine0003

The teacher is always faced with the problem of creating an adequate emotional atmosphere, which contributes to the most effective perception of educational material. His professionalism largely depends on the degree of solving this problem.
