Teaching Thought in The Analects of Confucius
The teaching view in The Analects of Confucius is an educational view that pays attention to cultivating moral behavior, practice and individual development.

1. Cultivate virtue

The Analects emphasizes the cultivation of human virtue, which is considered as the core of education. Confucius emphasized that "only by cultivating one's morality can one rule the country and level the world" and thought that only by cultivating one's morality can one achieve the goal of governing the country and level the world. He believes that the fundamental purpose of education is to cultivate people's moral character and moral quality, so that people can become morally cultivated people.

2. Practical education

The Analects emphasizes the importance of practical education. Confucius believed that education should be practical, not just theoretical. He emphasized the cultivation of people's morality and ability through practice and action, and the cultivation of students' practical operation ability and ability to solve practical problems.

3. Individual development

The Analects of Confucius pays attention to individual development and growth. Confucius believes that everyone has his own strengths and potentials, and education should be based on individual characteristics and needs, teaching students in accordance with their aptitude. He emphasized that education should be carried out according to students' interests and abilities, so as to develop students' personalities and talents.

4. Teacher-student relationship

The Analects emphasizes the importance of the relationship between teachers and students. Confucius believed that teachers should set an example, be role models for students and care about their growth and development. At the same time, students should respect their teachers, learn from them with an open mind and accept their guidance and education.

5. Pay equal attention to knowledge and virtue

In the Analects of Confucius, knowledge and virtue are two important aspects of education. Confucius believes that knowledge can cultivate people's wisdom and ability, but virtue is more important. It can cultivate people's morality and behavior. He believes that knowledge and virtue should complement each other and promote each other.

Through the teaching thoughts in The Analects of Confucius, we can see that Confucius emphasized the educational thoughts of self-cultivation, practical learning, personality development, teacher-student relationship and equal emphasis on knowledge and morality. These thoughts still have important enlightenment and reference significance for modern education. In modern education, we should also pay attention to cultivating students' moral character and moral quality, practical education and individual development, the establishment of teacher-student relationship and the balanced development of knowledge and virtue.

Only under the guidance of this educational concept can we cultivate outstanding talents with real moral cultivation, practical ability and personality development.
