多地叫停家長批改作業

The education authority in Northeast China's Liaoning province has joined a handful of others in banning Teachers from asking parents to grade students' homework after the practice sparked an outcry on social media platforms.

教師把作業推給家長改的做法在社交媒體平臺上引發不滿後，遼寧省教育廳近日出臺文件嚴禁“學生作業家長改”，此前已有多地教育部門叫停了這種做法。

Teachers at primary and middle schools who do not grade students' homework themselves will not be eligible for promotion or awards, according to the guideline issued by the provincial education department on Tuesday.

根據遼寧省教育廳11月10日出臺的文件，對於不親自批改作業的中小學教師，一律取消職務晉級、評先評優資格；

Teachers will not be allowed to use the WeChat or QQ messaging apps to assign homework or assign punitive or repetitive homework, the guideline said.

嚴禁教師在微信羣、QQ羣等佈置家庭作業；嚴禁佈置懲罰性、重複性作業。

In a video posted on Sina Weibo recently, a father in East China's Jiangsu province blasted teachers for asking parents to grade children's homework in a parent-teacher WeChat group before exiting the group.

近日新浪微博上的一則視頻中，江蘇一名父親在家長和老師溝通的微信羣中抨擊老師要求家長批改作業的行爲，並憤而退羣。

The video quickly sparked an angry reaction toward the teacher and an outpouring of support from parents, with the hashtag "all it needs to break a grown-up is a parent-teacher WeChat group" being viewed more than 760 million times.

該視頻立刻引發網友對這位老師的批評以及家長們一邊倒的支持，話題“壓垮成年人只需一個家長羣”的瀏覽量超過7.6億人次。
