摘 要:自改革开放以来, 特别是20 世纪90 年代以来, 我国中小学音乐教育发展很快, 学校音乐教育出现了繁荣的局面, 主要表现在以下几方面:
各级教育行政部门初步建立起了中小学音乐教育的管理、咨询、教研机构,改变了过去一直无专门机构和无专人管理音乐教育的状态;制定了一系列指导中小学音乐教育教学工作的法规和文件,改变了音乐教育无法可依的涣散局面;中小学音乐课程开课率稳步上升,改变了音乐教育长期存在着大面积空白的状况;引进学习了多种国外著名音乐教学法,教学水平有了明显提高;开展了一系列丰富多彩的课外校外音乐活动,有效地推动了整个学校音乐教育事业的发展。此外,音乐教材建设、教学器材配备以及音乐教育科研等方面也取得了许多成果。但是,在我国基础教育课程体系中还面临着许多自身体系不适应时代发展的一些问题,尤其是音乐课程是整个基础教育中的薄弱环节没有得到根本性的改变,离素质教育的要求还有一定的距离。根据国家新一轮课程改革的基本精神和要求,加强对义务教育阶段中小学音乐教育现状的调查与研究成为一项十分紧迫的任务。特别是在乌兰察布集宁地区,教育的投入、办学条件、师资水平等方面都存在着各种各样问题的情况下,寻找其中的差距和问题产生的原因,是尽快采取措施、解决问题的前提。
鉴于此,笔者采用了四种方法,即无记名调查问卷、实地考察调研、和学校领导座谈、交流听课等对乌兰察布市集宁地区的11所中小学的音乐教育状况,进行了实地调查和研究。通过分析和比较,针对调查中存在的问题,比如音乐教育的投入明显不足;音乐教师对新方法、新知识的学习和运用不理想,中小学音乐教育在许多方面无法适应当前素质教育的要求;音乐教师的基本技能和知识结构水平偏低,师资队伍良莠不齐;音乐课的开设情况及教学效果不尽如人意,初三年级和普通高中音乐课开课率偏低等现象,做了分析和建设性的构想。并把音乐教师素质偏低这一现象同高师的培养方法、目标结合起来,对音乐教师的教育如何走出面临的困境,做了有益的思考。
本文通过对乌兰察布市集宁区中小学音乐教育现状的调查思考,旨在为促进和发展乌兰察布市集宁区以及周边地区,甚至辐射面更宽的一些地区的中小学音乐教育,做一些积极而有益的工作。
