Influenced by Rousseau's natural education thought, Pestalozzi attached importance to children's education and devoted himself to educational research. His thought that "education must conform to nature" is summarized in the book "Night of the Hermit". I believe that everyone has some potential abilities endowed by nature, and these abilities all want to be developed. The purpose of education is to promote people's all-round and harmonious development and tap their natural potential.

The position and contribution of Pestalozzi;

Pestalozzi was the first educator in the history of western education to carry out the idea of combining education with productive labor in practice, and enriched and developed this idea through practice. During his life, Pestalozzi established many schools for poor children or orphans. Despite the limitations of fish and fish times, Pestalozzi did not find the internal relationship between education and productive labor, and made a historical analysis of it. However, his experiment lacks the first step towards the ideal of combining education with productive labor.
