A professor at Peking University once expressed his views on quality education in China, pointing out that although quality education is a good concept, it is still in its infancy, the system is not perfect, and it is more like a slogan than a feasible education model. He likened a misexecuted quality education to a bowl of poisonous chicken soup that could have a negative impact on children. Quality education is hailed as an ideal model, but it needs to be implemented carefully to ensure that it meets the needs of children. Therefore, it is time to think deeply about the relationship between quality education and test-oriented education, and choose the best growth path for children.
In China, quality education is considered to be immature, and more formal pursuits have led to the neglect of practical ability. Quality education emphasizes all-round development, cultivating creativity, critical thinking and teamwork, which is in line with modern ideals. However, the lack of a well-developed system and evaluation criteria has led educational institutions to blindly follow the form. Test-oriented education focuses on scores and competition, and overemphasizes knowledge indoctrination, which can easily lead to anxiety and limited creativity. The professor has reservations about the existing quality education model, which leads people to think about the way of education, which education is most conducive to the growth of children.
Every child has unique interests and talents, and parents should balance quality and test-oriented education according to the actual situation. In addition to cultivating creativity and critical thinking, it is also necessary to ensure the mastery of the necessary subject knowledge. At the same time, we respect children's individuality and interests, encourage them to explore different fields, and open up a broader space for their growth.
Parents should pay attention to their children's learning process, cultivate internal motivation and interest in learning, guide them to participate in practical activities and solve problems, and let them feel the joy of learning and a sense of achievement. Only in this way can children continue to grow and form a willingness to learn independently. In addition, establish close communication with the child to understand the confused needs and provide support. At the same time, we work with school teachers to promote children's growth. In the face of challenges, parents should motivate their children to face them bravely and cultivate adversity quotient. Quality and test-oriented education do not have to be one or the other, they are integrated and promoted, and parents need to rationally choose the best growth path to create a better educational environment.
China's education system oscillates between quality and test-oriented education. Quality education focuses on all-round training, while examination-oriented education is biased towards scores and admission rates, and the two have been wrestling for a long time. However, how to balance the two to help children truly grow is a real problem faced by parents and educators.
Quality education is undoubtedly an inevitable trend in today's education, but the current practice is not satisfactory. Only by establishing comprehensive and scientific quality evaluation standards and building a systematic and perfect quality education system can we ensure the all-round development of children. Although examination-oriented education has its limitations, it cannot be denied outright. It focuses on testing children's academic skills and cultivating problem-solving skills, which can promote students' development to a certain extent. Therefore, there is an urgent need to reform the educational concept and promote the organic integration of quality and examination-oriented education.
In this era of diversified development, parents and educators should guide their children wisely and avoid going to extremes. Treat quality and test-oriented education rationally, and strive to create a personalized growth path for children. Only in this way can our next generation truly thrive and meet the challenges of tomorrow's society. Live your true self and achieve a better version of yourself.
