Abstract: With China's Education system reform, higher vocational Education has made considerable progress, but the proportion of students are in vocational schools is a serious mental weariness, low motivation to learn. This paper analyzes the student's psychological state, the correct use of Educational the basic principles of psychology with teaching strategies to fully mobilize the enthusiasm of the students, to truly improve the quality of classroom teaching, to improve the quality of student learning.


In recent years, China's higher vocational Education has been vigorously promoting the rapid development and has become an important part of higher Education, but students are in vocational schools, and vocational education, compared to the good development prospects, but there are many problems In this paper, the use of educational psychology theory, combined with front-line teaching experience to explore the use of psychological methods to improve vocational college students active in a number of ways.

The enthusiasm of students, student learning is a psychological dynamic performance out of state, including the focus of attention, cognitive activity, emotional boost, will the efforts of the behavior of investment, etc. Almost all of the psychological research have pointed out that: learning initiative is directly promote, guide and strengthen the student's internal motivation to learn is an important variable affecting learning, therefore, to improve the academic performance of vocational college students, practical skills and competitiveness must be improved first and foremost the enthusiasm of students as teachers in vocational schools, vocational students according to the current state of mind, we should strive to use the theory of educational psychology in teacher-led, student-centered teaching and learning process, to mobilize the enthusiasm of the students to help students learn rebuild confidence in students a positive emotional attitude, so that the students never learn actively seek knowledge and to improve motivation to learn the purpose of this paper, I will talk about four aspects of practice in teaching practice:

First, understand the students, concerned about the students, the establishment of harmonious relations between teachers and students

Emotional migration tells us that a person's feelings to an object and the object will be transferred to other objects on up, so the interaction with students, both curricular and extracurricular, student achievement regardless of the merits, and regardless of student performance good or bad, should give deep understanding and caring, the students as a friend, take the initiative to communicate with students to help them learn and solve problems encountered in daily life, resulting in full confidence of students, teachers and students to establish rapport relations, to strengthen teachers and students, and actively guide the migration of good feelings, and then slowly the students for a course to eliminate the negative and hostile.


Second, a need to stimulate students

Refers to the individual learning needs in the learning activities and strive to feel a lack of access to meet the mental state it is a form of subjective experience of the learner's desire to learn or learning intentions. This is driven by desire or intention to learn the fundamental motivation of students It includes the interest in learning, loving and learning beliefs.

Teachers in the teaching, students were first caused by the need to learn some knowledge, then teaching, or to determine the needs of the student learning activities can be used in actual teaching pedagogy to the problem caused by the needs of students feeling. The appropriate set Q , few words, but it can generally attracted students like a magnet, so that their motivation to learn from the latent state into an active state the reason why the problem teaching method is more effective than lectures, because the problem is to solve a problem of pedagogy starting point for learning, students are reading in order to solve a problem away, to listen, to collect materials or to experiment. teaching, teachers can enable students to learn knowledge for the occurrence of urgent need, the enthusiasm of the students certainly can be mobilized, but also will continue to improve academic performance.

Achievement motivation is an individual effort to overcome obstacles, to display their abilities, and strive to solve a problem faster and better the desire or tendency, therefore, be sure to enable students in their learning process in the sense of continued success. "First time" effect is particularly important to special attention to the first class and the first unit of teaching. The first lesson, to crystal clear, so do not leave any questions, and also so that students feel there harvest, the first unit test, make sure that students are more satisfied with the results. To this end, first the actual level of teaching from students starting, slowing down the progress of teaching, to adapt their teaching rhythm, control the difficulty of teaching, reducing teaching gradient, so that students "learn to successfully", and second, practice exercises, the number and difficulty of homework strict control, for the more difficult to understand, easy to overlook the implied conditions or prone exercises the wrong solution, prior guidance and tips necessary to think "do to smoothly." Third, unit volume and difficulty of the test questions should be appropriate to enable students to both independent and completed on time, and and obtain satisfactory results, so that 90-95% of the students to obtain the first time in the intuitive sense, to further eliminate the fear of learning.


Fourth, active and effective encouraging

Enhanced by the behavioral theory of motivation proposed by learning theorists who believe that all human behavior by stimulation (S )---- reaction (R) form, that behaviorism that between the stimulus and response there is no intermediate or intermediate variable, since there are no intermediate processes or variables, it will be impossible to intermediate or intermediate variables to find the behavior of the power, only to act outside to find, so they put human behavior attributed to the enhanced power and therefore, in education and teaching activities, using a variety of external means such as rewards, praise, score, grade, race, etc., is essential motivational tool.

Actively encouraged (including the correct assessment of the appropriate recognition) is the attitude of student achievement and a positive or negative way to strengthen it can stimulate the students motivated, self-esteem, a sense of collectivism, etc., than the timely evaluation of the general better than not timely because the timely evaluation of the use of just the memories left by appearance, so that students have improved to further his desire to learn, are often not timely evaluation motivate students to improve learning in the role of small, because the consciousness of the students to complete the task context has been relatively weak when the. the students in terms of praise, encouragement than criticism, blame can better stimulate students motivation to learn, but to pay attention, excessive pride and praise will cause students tendency to ignore their own shortcomings, which led to negative results, and in the blame should also adopt ingenious ways. pointed out that further efforts to recognize the direction of criticism Shiyou affirm its progressive side.

In summary, the face of vocational college students such a special group, student teachers should be fully aware of the psychological state, and correctly use the basic principles of educational psychology with teaching strategies, continuous practice, constantly sum up, continuous improvement and innovation, in order to fully mobilize the enthusiasm of the students, to truly improve the quality of classroom teaching, to improve the quality of student learning.
