(1) for: Meng Lu.

(2) Viewpoint: Education originated from children's unconscious imitation of adults in daily life. The theory of psychological origin criticizes the vulgar view that the theory of educational biological origin does not distinguish between human education and animal instinct. The theory of origin criticizes the view that the theory of biological origin does not distinguish between human beings and animals, and holds that education only exists in human society and realizes "educating people".

4. Theory of labor origin

(1) Representatives: Midinsky and Kailov.

(2) Viewpoint: Education originated from the dialectical unity of social production needs and human development needs in the process of labor. The origin theory originated from Engels' viewpoint that labor creates people and human society originates from labor. Marxists believe that the theory of labor origin is the correct theory of origin.

These are all the answers to the theory of the origin of education.
