Essence

1. The essence of education

What is the essence of education?This is a seemingly simple but complicated problem.Education is not only the teaching of knowledge, but also the comprehensive development of people, the progress of society, and the inheritance of civilization.Education should pay attention to the growth of individuals, cultivate their ability to think independently, innovate and practice, and also pay attention to the development of society, and cultivate talents that can adapt to the society and serve the society.

The essence of education should be “people -oriented”.The “people” here include both students and teachers.Education should respect the personality of students, discover the potential of students, and should also respect the innovation and exploration of teachers, and encourage the development of teachers.The essence of education should be to promote the comprehensive development of people and cultivate people’s innovative spirit and practical ability, rather than simply pursue academic results or ability to take test.

Second, the problem of current education

However, there are many problems in the current education system.First of all, too much attention to the ability to take the test has led students to lack practical ability and innovative spirit.This phenomenon exists in many countries, leading to the phenomenon of “high scores and low energy” students.Secondly, the uneven distribution of educational resources makes the lack of educational resources in some areas and cannot meet the needs of local students.Third, the educational evaluation is single, and the score is the main evaluation standard, which ignores other aspects of the ability.

The existence of these problems makes the fundamental problem of education more prominent.We need to re -examine the nature of education and find ways to solve problems.

Third, the trend of future education

Facing the current education problems, future education will pay more attention to the comprehensive development of students.First of all, education will pay more attention to the cultivation of practical ability and innovation spirit.In the future, education will pay more attention to students’ actual operation ability, encourage students to participate in practical activities, and use the spirit of innovation.Secondly, education will pay more attention to individual differences.Each student has its unique potential and advantages. In the future, education will pay more attention to the individual differences of students and teach according to their aptitude.Third, education will pay more attention to diversified evaluations.In the future, education will no longer take scores as the sole evaluation criteria, but to evaluate from multiple aspects, including students’ innovation ability, practical ability, teamwork ability, etc.

At the same time, future education will also pay more attention to the development of teachers.Teachers are the executors of education, and their level and quality directly affect the quality of education.In the future, education will pay more attention to the improvement of teachers’ professionalism and education and teaching ability, and encourage teachers to carry out innovative exploration and practice.
