Extended data:

"People's Education Edition" is generally in terms of the meaning of teaching materials, which is relative to the teaching materials published by other publishing houses. For example, the textbook published by Changchun Publishing House is called Changchun Edition, the textbook published by Guangdong Education Publishing House is called Guangdong Education Edition, and the textbook published by Shanghai Education Publishing House is called Shanghai Education Edition. It can be seen that the so-called "people's education edition" refers to the "people's education edition", and the so-called "edition" refers to the textbook edition, not the "edition" of the publishing house.

So "People's Education Edition" refers to the textbook version published by People's Education Publishing House. For example, the primary and secondary education counseling newspapers in China have different versions of supplementary newspapers, such as the outline of the People's Education Edition and the new curriculum standard of the People's Education Edition. The names of these two versions are newspapers that match the textbooks published by People's Education Publishing House, and they are the names of the versions before and after the new curriculum reform.

With the deepening of the new curriculum reform, the former gradually withdrew from the historical stage, and the latter was called People's Education Edition. This set of textbooks is compiled by the Institute of Curriculum Textbooks and xx (Discipline) Curriculum Textbook R&D Center, and distributed by Xinhua Bookstore Group.
