Is the educational concept in Emile worth learning?
Emile is an educational novel written by Jean-Jean-jean-jacques rousseau, a French thinker. Emile, an orphan from a rich family, is the protagonist, and many valuable and pioneering educational methods are put forward. Even today, many educational methods in the book still have great learning value and are worth applying to daily education.

? The book Emile consists of five volumes, the first four of which feature Emile. Rousseau put forward five different educational principles, contents and methods for children of different ages in his book: physical education, sensory education, intellectual education, moral education and love.

"Cold theory can only affect our opinions, but it can't determine our behavior; It can make us believe it, but it can't make us act on it. It reveals what we should think, not what we should do. " This passage in the book embodies an educational concept, that is, attaching importance to practice and opposing superiority. Theory can guide practice, but it can't be bound by theory. Only when theory is put into practice can it produce real value. Therefore, Rousseau encouraged children to practice more in his books, instead of just reading with books in their arms.

? "It is important to get used to places where you can't sleep well at first, which is the way to avoid encountering bad beds in the future. Generally speaking, once a hard life becomes a habit, it will greatly increase the feeling of happiness, while a comfortable life will bring endless troubles. " This is Rousseau's educational viewpoint in Emile, which I think has great enlightenment to contemporary family education. Because there are few children in a family now, the phenomenon of drowning in love is becoming more and more common. Many parents believe that the best material condition for their children is to be kind to them. This view is obviously incorrect. According to Rousseau's point of view, the child must suffer a little, so that he won't feel unhappy when he encounters suffering in the future. And difficulties are inevitable in everyone's life.
