"Respecting teachers and attaching importance to teaching" comes from The Book of Rites, which is the earliest educational and teaching treatise in ancient China and even in the world. It is one of China's ancient monographs on laws and regulations, The Book of Rites, which was written at the end of the Warring States Period.
According to Guo Moruo's textual research, the author is Ke, a student of Mencius. The idiom "Respect teachers and attach importance to education" comes from the Book of the Later Han Dynasty-A Biography of Confucius: "When you hear the king of Ming Dynasty, you must respect teachers and attach importance to Taoism." It can be seen that respecting teachers and attaching importance to morality is the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation.
For a strict teacher, any learning method is difficult. Teacher Yan respected the Tao, and the Tao respected the people and respected learning. Therefore, the place where you are not a minister is the second: when you are a corpse, you are a minister; When he was a teacher, he was also a servant. The gift of a college student, although written, respects the teacher.
Respecting teachers and attaching importance to teaching has always been the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation. As early as ancient times, people regarded teachers as equals with heaven, earth, monarch and relatives. "One day as a teacher, life as a father." Famous sayings, such as "A threesome, there must be a teacher", have been passed down from mouth to mouth in the society and have been passed down to this day.
The earliest record of respecting teachers and teaching in China should be The Book of Rites. He said: "The way to learn is difficult to be strict with the teacher. It is difficult for a strict teacher to respect Tao, and then the people know how to respect learning. " It means that it is the most important thing to respect teachers and respect morality. Only by respecting teachers can we be honest; Only by emphasizing morality can people attach importance to learning and education.
