It seems popular to criticize cramming education now, but I support cramming education's method, because it is not the educational method that is wrong, but the people who can't use it.
Beijing roast duck is famous at home and abroad. Do you know how to roast such a fat duck? Answer: Fill the duck.
Mr. Liang Shiqiu once wrote an article describing "stuffing ducks"
Knead sorghum and other feeds into round strips and teach ordinary sausages and hot dogs to thicken, about four inches long. The duck master in Tongzhou grabbed a duck and sandwiched it between his legs, making it unable to move. He broke the duckbill with his hand and forced it in with a thick and long piece of food dipped in water. Ducks can't make any noise when they want to bark, but they can blink. After you put it in your mouth, touch the duck's neck tightly with your hand and squeeze things into the duck's stomach. I filled a few pieces, and when I saw that I was going to burst my belly, I was relieved. Put the ducks in the dark shed. Hundreds of ducks are locked together, like sardines, with no room to move, just trying to give water to drink. After being closed for a few days, I get fat every day, so I named it "duck stuffing"
The roast duck made by "duck stuffing" is fat, tender and smooth. Anyone here?
Baidu Encyclopedia has a noun explanation called "cramming education Method", which refers to the irrigation education mode in China today. Adults knead knowledge points into "feed" and stuff them into children's mouths, and the whole learning career is repeated.
Is cramming education really useful?
Useful!
20 15 BBC three-part documentary "are our children strong enough?" -China School, which triggered the reflection and discussion on the educational model between Chinese and British people.
Five teachers from China went to Bohunt public school in England to try "Chinese education". The subjects were 50 ninth-grade students who studied in a large class for 4 weeks. In the final exam, the class surpassed other students in the same grade in mathematics, Chinese and science.
The conclusion seems to be that "China education" is superior to "British public education".
In this way, students' grades have really improved. The students really absorbed the knowledge and showed it through the examination results.
But has cramming education always been feasible?
No way!
In fact, this kind of education is suitable for younger children, and rote learning is not the most stupid way. According to the research of anthropologists and psychologists, the development curves of memory and understanding are different in the process of life growth.
People's memory development begins at the age of zero, and develops significantly at the age of one to three. At the age of three to six, its progress is more rapid. The age of six to thirteen is the golden age of life development, and thirteen is the peak of life memory. After that, you can only maintain this high point at most. Often after the age of twenty, memory does not exercise much, and may even decline.
However, the development of understanding is quite different from memory. Understanding is also brewed from the age of zero. It always rises slowly from one year old to thirteen years old, makes great progress after thirteen years old, and matures gradually after eighteen years old, but it can still be improved by experience and thinking until it dies of old age.
We respect classics and advocate reading them. Many people have asked me before, what is the use of reading classics at such a young age? I don't understand after reading it!
I am sure I can answer them. It doesn't matter if you don't understand now. Proper cramming education Method In the golden memory period of children, although knowledge may be simply memorized in the brain, it is like a water-absorbing sponge filled with enough water. Although the appearance is still the same as before, the "goods in the belly" are real. At this time, only a little external force is needed, and the sponge will squeeze out water.
The same is true of reading and reciting classics. In childhood, children were instilled with Chinese classics by this "cramming education" method. In adolescence, with the gradual growth of children's understanding, they will gradually understand the wisdom of these ancient sages, dig deep into their profound meaning, and unconsciously absorb the profound truth contained in them.
Just like eating when children are growing up, eat as long as you can, and then eat as long as you are strong.
Those who have achieved great success in almost all academic fields will read classics from an early age.
(Literary theorist, aesthetician, critic, who won the first prize of China Book, outstanding achievement award of China Academy of Social Sciences, the first Luxun literary theory award, etc. )
He said that when he was a child, he recited four books, five classics and many ancient texts in a private school.
"Five-year private school education is the earliest cultural education I received in China, which has left me an indelible influence for life. I have learned more in five years in a private school than in four years in the Chinese Department of a regular university. Although what I recited in my early years is beyond my understanding; However, due to the strong memory of childhood, these recited things were later understood with the growth of knowledge and the improvement of understanding ability, and they were as unforgettable as they were engraved in their hearts. They can learn by heart, which is really good for my later academic research work. "
This is from experience.
Of course, in the learning process of childhood, we should also consider the child's physical endurance. Too much will only make children psychologically disgusted with learning from an early age, so reading classics should also pay attention to scientific reading methods.
Meet with heart and send with courtesy. Millions of parents and children all over the world!
