Some Thoughts on Education is an educational book published by British philosopher John Locke in 1693. For centuries, it has been the most important educational philosophy book in Britain. In the18th century, this book was translated into almost all European languages, and educators after Locke, including Jean-Jean-jean-jacques rousseau, realized the value and influence of this book.

Locke outlined a new philosophy of spirit in his Paper on Human Understanding (1690), which holds that children's consciousness is a whiteboard without innate concepts. Random talk on education expounds how to carry out education from three aspects: cultivating a healthy body; Form good virtues; And choose the appropriate academic courses.

Although Locke wrote this book at first as "some ideas" of aristocratic friends, his educational principles also aroused the desire of women and the lower classes to pursue the same virtues as nobles, and Locke's suggestions finally had a far-reaching impact than his original writing intention.
