Comenius' educational thought laid the foundation for the development of modern western educational theory, right?
That's right.

Comenius was deeply influenced by humanism and put forward that "man is the noblest, the most perfect and the most beautiful in creation". He affirmed his understanding of people in On Great Teaching. He believes that man is God's perfect creation, and he is God's love and image. He said that "man should be a rational animal, the master of all creation, and the image and love of the creator in tangible creation". He thinks that everything is man-made and man has unlimited potential, and compares man to a small universe, so he puts forward the famous seed theory. Compare the psychology of people who come into the world to the seeds of plants or trees. They are born with the seeds of erudition, virtue and piety, and their quality lies in education. He spoke highly of people's status, value and significance, paving the way for his later universal education of "teaching all knowledge to all people". Pan-intellectual education is also the core of Comenius' whole educational thought. It has adapted to the needs of the times and society, laid a foundation for the establishment of independent and systematic pedagogy, and had a great influence on the formation of western educational theory system and the development of modern education in China.
