The CCTV Finance Dialogue invited a headmaster who was "out of the loop". When talking about his "good youth", he mentioned a key word: "elegant life". How on earth can children learn to live gracefully?
1. Lighten the burden
Before elegance, life comes first. President Tang said: "In fact, the students' burden is relatively heavy on the whole. Even our most basic baseline sleep - 10 hours for primary school students, 9 hours for junior high school students, and 8 hours for senior high school students - has become an extravagant hope. Our school students have always strictly guaranteed enough sleep every day, 8 hours for them. They fell asleep at 9:55 p.m. and got up at 6:05 a.m. after the bell rang."
2. Rich curriculum
The school curriculum, as the basic carrier, is the realization of education As an important basis for the goal, President Tang made his "personality" choice: "We use first-class venues and facilities to exchange professional teams outside the school to provide us with course support and coaches. We only have 11 PE teachers, but we are assisted by foreign teachers, such as the German national team coach to teach the fencing course; there are five or six fencing teachers; There are only four lifeguards for sports swimming. "
3、 Competence Education idea
Why should we insist on quality education rather than exam oriented education? Principal Tang said, "Now the teachers are around college entrance examination Teach every test point. This simple goal driven learning method is actually harmful. Once this goal does not exist, the subsequent continuous motivation will disappear. We should let students get good results in the college entrance examination chinese The achievement is something that any Chinese teacher must pay attention to, but the college entrance examination only detects the part of Chinese literacy that can be applied to paper and pencil testing, and cannot detect the comprehensive literacy. More importantly, in my opinion, the first thing for Chinese learning is to cultivate a lifelong reader, so that he can obtain a great spiritual nourishment in the process of rapid spiritual and physical growth. "
4. Advise parents
For the current home education President Tang also put forward some practical suggestions: "Good scores are just an instrumental goal leading to the ultimate goal. We cannot create the subversion of the value order or the opposition of the value order. For example, it is not right to emphasize scores because we want to focus on happiness. I would like to give a suggestion to parents. Even if you pay close attention to scores, you should also show the diversity of topics, the richness of context, and the expression of love and care in front of children. "
Elegance is an attitude, and life is an experience that comes with it. When children finally can carefully experience every ordinary day and know the myriad of tastes, what the school gives is not only scores and knowledge, but also the miraculous ability to capture happiness.
Is it true that only those who have good scores in the college entrance examination can have a successful life? Returning to the origin of education, how do we view quality education?
