Definition of man: man is an ordinary animal in the earth's ecosystem and the result of biological evolution. Anthropologically, people are defined as creatures who can use language, have complex social organizations and scientific and technological development, especially they can establish groups and institutions to achieve the purpose of mutual support and help.

Pedagogy's understanding of "man";

1, man is a possibility of existence.

The essence of human beings is constantly generated in their own activities, which is a kind of "self-regulation";

2. People have autonomy and creativity.

People can not only learn, but also ask questions, explore and innovate;

3. People have the essence of development.

Man's practical nature determines that man can constantly deny himself, surpass himself and realize himself through conscious and purposeful independent creative activities, that is, man has the essence of development;

4. People are historical and realistic.

There are two meanings: first, human self-essence is gradually generated in the continuous development of history and real life, and people always live in a specific historical and real space. Secondly, the generation and development of human self-essence are restricted by certain historical and realistic conditions;

5. People are diverse and different.

The possibility of human existence itself contains richness and diversity, on the other hand, it also contains the specific uniqueness, irreplaceability and differences among individuals.

human evolution

The evolution of human beings originated from forest apes and gradually developed from primates after a long evolutionary process. It has experienced four stages: ape-man, primitive man, homo sapiens and modern man.

Due to the development of modern archaeology, prehistoric civilization has been gradually denied, and archaeology has already had most evolved ape fossils. With the discovery of modern biology, it is found that genetic DNA is evolutionary, which confirms the authenticity of quasi-neutral evolution theory.

The first human beings were called "fully formed people" in anthropology. Ancient anthropologists in China divided this process into two stages: ape-man and homo sapiens, and each stage was divided into two stages: morning and evening.

Early ape-man: Kenya 1470, Tanzania Canyon "capable man"; Late ape-man: Indonesian Javanese, German Heidelberg, China Yuanmou, Beijinger; Early Homo sapiens: German Neanderthals, China Dingcun people; Late Homo sapiens: French Kroma farmers and China Neanderthals.
