Today's "Chinese-style education" has always been a controversial topic in ChinaSome people think that Chinese-style education will limit children's development, and some people think that Chinese-style education can better manage children.
Many children, including parents, yearn for Western teaching methods, so is Chinese education really that bad?Is the Western way of teaching necessarily good?
A documentary "Are Children Strong Enough, Chinese Education" may be able to give you the answer.
In 2015, the British broadcaster BBC did such an experimentThey invited five of China's top secondary school teachers to teach at a British school called Bohangte School.
Teach these children a month with Chinese-style educationto see if the final result is that Chinese education is better or Western education is more perfect, and make it into a documentaryAnd this documentary attracted heated discussions abroad after it was broadcast.
British students were very excited when they learned about such an event, because everyone was very curious and imagined what Chinese education was likeBut this curiosity about the new was quickly eroded.
This competition between Chinese and Western education is not all smooth sailingIt is difficult for these British children to change in a short period of time after a long period of Western-style educationThese students even violated various regulations to resist Chinese-style education.
On the first day of school,These British children were required to wear uniform uniformsFor them, this completely restricts their freedom, and then they need to come to the playground for flag raising and morning exercises.
The first step encountered difficultiesMany students are completely undisciplined and lazyThis is also the difference between Chinese and Western education.
The teachers also realized that the first thing to do was to rectify the discipline in the classIn this way, it can be carried out, but it is not easy to deal with students who have received Western-style education since childhood.
During the lesson, the first task of the teachers is to emphasize the issue of disciplineand informed them of all the discipline in our country, but it didn't have much effect.
These British students don't care about this at all, and they still go their own way in classFaced with such a situation, the teachers will shout outside to punish the station, which may have played a role for the Chinese students, but they don't think so.
Some students will even leave directly, and the teacher has to talk to them alone, but they can't listen to them at allA slightly more irritating language student will just walk away.
Such a caseTeachers can only use the "killer tool", that is, to call parents, but when the parents of this group of British children came, they felt confused, shouldn't the students be managed by the school?
Teachers also feel very helpless about this, for Chinese students, it is very scary to call parents.
After a period of discipline rectification,It did not make this group of Western students restrain themselves, but their rebellious character became more and more serious.
One of the five teachers asked:If the hard one doesn't work, then the soft one will comeTake them to relax and feel the charm of traditional Chinese culture.
Several teachers then threw a party for the studentsThere are various activities such as fan dancing and dumpling makingIt was this event that brought Chinese teachers closer to Western students.
These students gradually accepted these five teachersHowever, at this time, a new problem was encountered, that is, how to teach them knowledge.
The mathematics taught by Mr. Zou Hailian is an example of thisWestern students learn much more slowly than children in our countryThey didn't understand what Teacher Zou Hailian was talking about, and they even lost confidence in learning.
Mr. Zou understood that the most important task now was to restore the confidence of this group of students, and he thought of a solutionIt was to buy a batch of "Nine Links" educational toys from China to help this group of students.
Sure enough, the students were curious about new thingsInterest was immediately arousedThis group of children gradually lost their aversion to the subject of mathematics.
Several other teachers encountered new problemsIt is the class notes of Chinese educationThe teacher's key knowledge on the blackboard needs to be recorded by the studentsStudents think it's a very boring way to learn.
But that's how Chinese education is, and there is a rule in this experiment, that is, noBecause of other factors to change the way teaching is done.
Even the principal, Neil, didn't like this way of teaching and felt like robotsInstead of actively learning, Neil became more and more confident in the success of the experiment.
Although the principal has always had doubts about Chinese educationBut he really likes to broadcast gymnastics, not only to exercise the body, but also to cultivate the children's collective spirit.
Over time,This group of children slowly became accustomed to Chinese education, and they also found thatWhen you forget this knowledge, you only need to flip through your notes to learn it again.
This group of Western students became more and more like a collective after being fully educated in the Chinese styleUnder the guidance of five Chinese teachers, he became more and more confident in learning.
Many friends have questions about this, what kind of middle school is Bohangte Middle School?
Bohang School is one of the top public schools in the UKHowever, it is such a top public school, and after receiving a Chinese-style education, the results can still improve by leaps and bounds.
As the final exam approaches, Western children who have become accustomed to Chinese-style education, like us in China, will revise until late at night, in order to get a good score.
When the test result comes out,To everyone's surprise, no matter which subject the results are, Chinese education crushes Western education in all aspects, such a result made Principal Neil, who had been questioning Chinese-style education before, have to admire.
After the British official passed this experiment, it also expressed its affirmation of Chinese-style educationNowadays, many countries are slowly introducing Chinese education, the most classic example is the United Kingdom.
In the four years following this experiment, Britain invested a lot of money to popularize Chinese-style educationThis fully shows that Chinese education does have outstanding features.
In today's society that is so competitive,Chinese education is indeed the best education in our country at present, but it has been discussed.
