On the issue of children's education, Wang Shouren's basic idea is to educate children in a positive way according to their physiological and psychological characteristics, guide their temperament and promote their natural development. The most important thing in educating children is to stimulate their interest in learning. Interest plays a very important and positive role in improving children's education quality.

Wang Shouren sharply criticized the traditional educational methods that generally ignored children's interests and destroyed children's nature.

Wang Shouren thinks:

Wang Shouren opposed to regard Confucius and Mencius as unchangeable precepts and blindly obey feudal ethics, but emphasized individual initiative. The philosophical proposition of "to conscience" and the methodology of "unity of knowledge and action" put forward by him have the significance of breaking through the shackles of feudal thought and calling for ideological liberation and personality liberation.

Wang Yangming widely accepted his disciples and publicized his thoughts, and was called "Yangming School" (also known as "Yaojiang School"). His works, including Wang Chengwen's Book of Public Rights, have been published in 38 volumes in the world, and have been evaluated by academic circles as the earliest enlightenment philosophical works in the late feudal medieval society of China.
