1? The difference between Chinese and American education lies in the different teaching objectives of primary education in the two countries:

The primary education in our country takes the development of children's intelligence and the high score of children's interests as the primary goal; In the United States, primary education has only one purpose: to cultivate children's creativity.

2. Different attitudes towards grades?

For children in China, a bad report card will put them under pressure from all sides. But in the United States, every student's year-end report card is personal, and parents will not put too much pressure on their children. Scores are far less than their abilities in the eyes of adults. The goal of most students in China is "that high score"

There are differences in knowledge between these two countries.

Education in China pays attention to inculcating knowledge, cultivating students' respect for knowledge and authority, inheriting knowledge and building a knowledge system.

The United States pays more attention to cultivating students' practical ability to use knowledge, questioning knowledge and authority, criticizing spirit and expanding and creating knowledge.

These two kinds of education express different attitudes towards knowledge, that is, the static difference between China's education and the dynamic difference between the United States, which reflects the difference of knowledge views between the two countries.

4. The two countries provide different environments for students:

American schools encourage children to do research from an early age, and cultivate their research ability, the ability to deal with problems independently, and the ability to organize sports research methods for learning materials.

However, under the restriction of exam-oriented education and the influence of traditional ideas, Chinese schools adopt a two-stage strategy of laying the foundation in the primary stage and learning in the advanced stage.

5. Are there different courses in these two countries?

For example, foreign language learning. In China, students have only one kind of English in basic education (except majors). This is a unified choice made by the education system for all students.

In the United States, students choose much more moral education courses, including Spanish, development, Latin and so on. There are also classes in America that don't use textbooks. They are often called "family life" courses.

Courses include sewing, cooking and self-confidence. He teaches students things in life outside of books, which is necessary or necessary for a person. He teaches students how to live.

6. The education model is different from the college entrance examination system: China's heuristic education has a drawback, that is, the answer to a question is actually to induce students to find the "only answer".

The teaching methods in American schools not only guide students to understand and master the consistent correct answers of teachers, but also give students free imagination to explore the potential answers that are unknown to teachers and students but exist objectively.

In China, except for a few people who don't have to look at the scores of the College Entrance Examination, the scores of the College Entrance Examination are the most important and the only admission criteria. However, in the United States, students take various exams at least once a year and fail once. It is understandable to fail twice. Therefore, these test scores can be used as very important admission criteria.

7. The study burden is different: America takes a vacation almost once a week. But in China, weekends may be ruthlessly occupied, and even colorful holidays will be eclipsed by heavy homework.

8. Family education is different:

1) American education hours are strictly controlled, and American parents will set many rules. The older the child, the looser it is; China's parents indulged in every way when they were young, and restricted them everywhere when they grew up, even interfering with college majors and love.

2) American education pays attention to the cultivation of children's sense of responsibility, which makes American children more independent than China children.

Suggestion?

China's examination system reform, teaching reform and students' burden reduction are three aspects of the overall situation of education reform, and the examination system is the key to "starting from one thing". Only by changing the exam-oriented education can quality education gain its own space.

On the premise that innovation is more than foundation, the United States relies on foundation to make up for its shortcomings, while the situation in China is just the opposite. We have more foundation and less innovation, so the promotion of education in China must focus on innovation to make up for the deficiency.

Education is a cultural phenomenon, and different education reflects different cultural connotations. An educational method or system suitable for today's American society may not be suitable for today's China society. In short, what we need is a modern education that combines localization and internationalization.

The new education system being implemented in China is gradually correcting the defects of education, and tends to be diversified and internationalized. This is the result of research education and our original intention.
