Academic performance is an important indicator for evaluating the quality of the education of normal school students. Ex- ploring the internal mechanism of the generation of excellent academic performance of normal school students has an important reference value for the high-quality development of normal education.Through the grounded theoretical analysis,it is found that the academic goal plan and traction are the“beacon”and power source for the generation of excellent academic performance of normal students in lo- cal colleges and universities,and determine the learning resilience; motivation and field force are the key factors that drive normal students to set their academic goals; learning experience and self-cognition enable students to choose challenging or measurable aca- demic goals; learning resilience,adjustment and support strategies are the prerequisite and guarantee for the generation of excellent ac- ademic performance; academic performance,adjustment and support strategies,learning experience and self-cognition can regulate learning resilience,and there is an interaction between them. Academic performance reacts on learning experience and self-cognition. To this end,we should improve the“three complete”education system to enhance the effectiveness of the“aspiration”education of normal school students; strengthen teachers’professional beliefs and teachers’professional identity with“distributed education”; cre- ate a diversified development platform to expand the cognitive space of normal school students’interests and abilities; constructing a classified evaluation system to enhance normal school students’sense of achievement and learning efficacy; adopt academic assistance and individualized guidance to improve the learning strategy level of normal school students.
