When I first learned that Mr. Zhou was going to hold the first World Youth Innovation and Entrepreneurship Education Summit, I was so excited that I booked a ticket for the first time and waited for this day to come. Since I met Miss Zhou, her personality charm has deeply attracted me. There seems to be a magical power that makes me trust her unconditionally and believe that everything she brings must be beautiful. This was confirmed again during the two-day meeting. As Mr. Zhou mentioned in the promotional film of the conference, "At least parents can instantly see that their children have expectations and hopes for the future."
? "Why on earth should we have children?" "What is our purpose?" "Do you trust your children?" "What are your expectations for your child's future?" The above are some questions raised by Mr. Zhou at the beginning of the summit propaganda film. Simple questions pierce the hearts of parents. Have we thought about these problems in the process of raising children? So I took these questions and listened to this educational activity, looking for answers that satisfied me.
People with the same frequency are doomed to meet-a large-scale "netizen" party
This meeting is privately dubbed as a large-scale "netizen" meeting. This is not a meeting that everyone didn't know before coming, but many people had interactive communication on the Internet before coming. There was a feeling of going home at the scene, and I really felt what Teacher Zhou said from "me" to "us". At the scene, I received gifts from friends in Dujiangyan, Sichuan and Xi, Shaanxi, which were very warm. We hugged each other, took selfies together and sat side by side listening to speeches, as if we had known each other for a long time. This makes me have more expectations for the massive open network courses of Einstein College. I can imagine our children studying in this school without walls and borders. I know many friends on the same frequency online and get together with them offline to do team work. Think of such a beautiful picture.
How to laugh-differences make beauty.
? At the conference site, what made everyone have a subversive understanding of education was Professor Jacob's How to Simulate a Speech. It turns out that education can do this: online learning architecture, online massive open online course learning, guided by massive open online courses, a coach, students can choose their own courses, and students who like this course get together to form a team to study independently. Everyone gives full play to their strengths and advantages in the team. Everyone is a teacher and everyone is a student. Offline students finish the project together. Everyone's differences and strengths are respected to the greatest extent. Because differences produce beauty. This is the true face of education. However, the traditional pyramid education formed in the past 100 years has obliterated children's uniqueness and creativity, and children only passively accept knowledge instead of using it. This has to make us reflect on whether we are easily replaced by robots in the coming era of artificial intelligence. This era is changing so fast that it may have been eliminated before we can react. And what kind of people are really left behind? Must be a person who can learn and is good at learning.
The Internet is reshaping the education industry.
Maybe we can't really feel how the Israelis simulate the practice as Professor Jacob said for the time being, but the keynote speech "Building a Living Network of Rural Education with internet plus" brought by President Wu Hong, CEO of Hujiang Online School, made me deeply shocked by their rural public welfare aid practice. Because of the power of the Internet, children in remote rural areas, which originally lacked the most educational resources, were exposed to the existing advanced educational concepts and practices. A network cable, a large computer screen and rich online education resources can bring rich and varied classrooms to children through the guidance of teachers, and children can actively participate in classroom learning. Discover the advantages and differences of each child. The Internet has narrowed the educational gap to a certain extent, providing a realistic reference for breaking the educational unfairness. If the mutual plan of Hujiang Online School is Education 2.0, I think what Einstein College will do next is Education 3.0, showing how the best educational resources at home and abroad can ridicule the children in China, discover their uniqueness, and guide and stimulate their creativity. This reminds me of the courtyard view of Einstein College mentioned by Mr. Zhou: "Let China's children receive more and better education in the world at an earlier stage at a lower cost. We all come to this platform for the difference of children's future. Knowledge itself is not the most important thing. For a child, learning is more important than what he has learned. The Internet is changing the education industry and giving education more possibilities.
Building a community of educational destiny and running education with "service" as the standard.
? One of the highlights of this conference is that guests from different industries have brought their practical attempts to cross-border integration with education. Enterprises have joined education in succession, expanding the orientation of education according to their own advantages, and providing more social practice and enterprise docking for children. We saw the resurrected mammoth brought by Huada Gene Innovation Center, which stimulated children's curiosity about genes. The bank manager of China Merchants Bank links education with finance. Konka, He Yi Crowdfunding, Zixu Zhiku and other enterprises have cooperated with education, which shows us that the future education must be an ecology, and all walks of life are connected with education to build a community of educational destiny. Feng Kun, CEO of Zixu Think Tank, mentioned: "The future educational products must be service-oriented, and we must design educational products that real children need." I quite agree with this view. When education designs the educational products that children need with good service standards, it is the children who will ultimately benefit.
The hand that pushes the cradle is the hand that pushes the world.
The hand that pushes the cradle is the hand that pushes the world. Mothers play a vital role in children's growth. I listened to the speeches of three mothers at the scene and benefited a lot. One is teacher Sarah, a famous inheritor of Jewish parenting education and wealth view. Previously, because of the recommendation of Teacher Zhou, I read the book "Special Heart and Special Love" by Teacher Sarah, and I was deeply impressed by Teacher Sarah's story and parenting concept. This time, I have a more stereoscopic and intuitive impression of Mr. Sala. It turns out that Miss Sarah is not only a wise mother, but also an old lady with humorous language and no affectation. Life is education. Teacher Sarah's education is to seize every opportunity to educate children in life. In the face of adversity, Mr. Sarah influenced the children with a positive attitude. What impressed me the most was the story of teacher Sarah telling the story of picking pears: let children pick damaged pears, in order to let children accept the imperfection of life. Only by knowing the imperfection of life can we better accept perfection. What a wise mother! Look at how we usually educate our children. We always give our children the best things. There is nothing imperfect in their world. When a child leaves his parents' arms and enters the society, can he cope with all kinds of imperfections well? The answer is definitelyno. Teacher Sarah also mentioned: "The child's personality is the most important. Character and virtue are never compromised. " How many parents really see the good character in their children?
The second place is Israel T&; Reut Herz, founder of J Innovation and Entrepreneurship Service Company, is a famous female serial entrepreneur in Israel. She is the mother of three children and has really achieved the goal of starting a business and having children. The theme of her speech to us is "Life without failure is the biggest failure", telling her own experience of entrepreneurial failure and giving her own views on failure: "If you don't know how to learn from failure, that is the real failure". At the same time, she also mentioned that parents should not be helicopter parents when educating their children to help them understand all obstacles, but let them experience appropriate setbacks, thus establishing an optimistic mood.
The third place is Ms. Feng Xian, the founder of Zixu think tank. Professional, confident and elegant successful woman in the workplace, mother of two children. When asked how she balances her family and career. She said, "As a mother, you must learn and grow. When you learn, grow up, know how to get along with children and handle the relationship with children, then you will naturally handle the relationship with your lover and in-laws. The whole family is centered on you, with the same educational concept, family harmony, and both work and children can be taken care of. "
I remember that when Mr. Zhou talked about the foundation of Jewish gifted education, he once talked about the triple role of mother: protector, educator and companion. "The father shapes the child's brain and the mother shapes the child's soul". Every mother becomes extremely powerful because of love. Three outstanding female guests let us see the powerful strength of mothers and their parenting wisdom. Let us also see that as a mother, we should always have a growing mind and be an example for our children.
Parents' vision and pattern determine their children's future.
? Is grades important to children? Many parents think it is important, and even ask their children for everything with their grades. It is the greatest wish of many parents that they only need their children to learn book knowledge, get good grades and go to a good university. As we all know, times are changing so fast that it is not enough to get good grades. Moreover, our children not only compete with the people around them at school, but also are put on the international track to compete early. What kind of quality children should we cultivate? During the publication of Einstein's Strategic Plan, Mr. Zhou mentioned that future international competitive talents should have the following abilities: innovative spirit and creativity, super learning ability, interdisciplinary problem solving ability and teamwork ability. As parents, we really need to have a broader vision and pattern to help children have these abilities.
Unforgettable and Creative "Yellow Vest" Activity
When I first saw the agenda of the meeting, I was still wondering what kind of activity it was. As a result, this activity should be the most creative and meaningful. The activity requires the big coffee participants to wear yellow vests and stand in the crowd. Participants need to actively find the big coffee they want to establish contact, and the big coffee can't refuse their request. When Mr. Zhou announced the news, my heart sank. I have always been a person who likes to stay in the comfort zone and wants to retreat when encountering difficulties. At that moment, it returned to its original mode. But then, what happened was that I dared to communicate with people who wanted to communicate. It's nothing difficult, just do it. There are many possibilities to do it. Yes, this activity made me see unexpected things happen. Take the initiative to chat with Yi Feng, ask for her WeChat, take the initiative to chat with President Wu Hong, and add his Huang vest skirt. Take the initiative to take a photo with Jacob and Lamy, leaving an unforgettable moment. These are all new possibilities to jump out of the comfort zone. Isn't that the purpose of this meeting? Teacher Zhou took the initiative to jump out of the comfort zone of education and set off an inevitable educational revolution. There are certainly difficulties, but as long as you do and practice, the road will become clearer and clearer.
? Two days are short, but they are very precious days in life. I met more excellent people and discovered more possibilities. "If you choose to believe, you will see." This is a sentence often said by teacher Zhou, and I like it very much, and we really saw what we wanted to see at this summit. I think that in the near future, we can also see the landing of How to Simulate Courses in Einstein College and see a better educational future.
