Education is not instilling, but igniting. Ten thousand indoctrination is not as good as a real awakening.
Socrates: Education is not instilling but igniting. Ten thousand indoctrination is not as good as a real awakening.

German educator Dostoevsky once said: The art of teaching is not to impart skills, but to inspire, awaken and inspire. At home, parents keep ordering and punishing their children in order to make them obey. In class, the teacher keeps inculcating students to listen. In the long run, the family loses the warmth of the classroom and the children lose their interest in learning. Awakening is the true meaning of education.

So what is awakening education and what should we use to awaken students?

First of all, we must awaken children's self-confidence.

Awakening children's self-confidence is the key to the success of education. The premise of awakening education is to fully trust children, help them boldly and respect their wishes and aspirations. Let every child feel: I can do it and I will win.

Suhomlinski once said that the educational wisdom of teachers is to let children never lose confidence and never let him feel that he can't do anything well. Awakening education is to cultivate children's self-confidence

Secondly, awaken children's desire for self-reliance.

Every child has some talents, just like a seed. As long as there are nutrients and water, they can take root and sprout, and even grow into towering trees. The key to children's success is the awakening power of teachers and parents. Learning, like growth, is not only a matter for students, but also for parents and teachers, and what parents and teachers have to do is to awaken their children's desire for self-reliance.

With this desire, children will be full of vitality, like mushrooms after rain, and generate will be full of vitality.

Finally, wake up the motivation of children's thinking

Learning without thinking is useless, thinking without learning is dangerous. Learning and thinking complement each other. Don't blindly instill knowledge into children, but also awaken the motivation of children's self-thinking. Whether it is obedient education at home or instilling knowledge into children in class, children have completely lost the ability to think independently.

Education is by no means stuffing things into the brain, but a kind of spiritual communication, the collision of wisdom and the tempering of thinking. Third-rate teachers impart knowledge, second-rate teachers impart methods, and first-rate teachers impart ideas. Teachers who can awaken students' independent thinking motivation and cultivate students' independent thinking habits are first-class. Of course, parents who can cultivate their children's independent thinking are also parents who understand education.

Awakening means respecting children, trusting them, stimulating their enthusiasm for learning and letting them learn by themselves. As mentioned at the beginning, when a child's interest in something is aroused, he can remember something once, but he can't learn it no matter how he is taught.

Therefore, only when education is based on believing in children can awakening become a real force and a really good education.
