Lifelong education includes formal education, informal education and self-education, which helps people to constantly update their knowledge and skills to adapt to the rapidly developing society.

Personalized education pays attention to teaching students in accordance with their aptitude, giving full play to each child's advantages and potential, which is helpful to cultivate children's autonomy and creativity.

Fourth, the cultivation of innovation and problem-solving ability

Education after the 20th century focuses on cultivating children's innovative ability and problem-solving ability. With the rapid development of science and technology, people realize that education should focus on cultivating children's innovative thinking and problem-solving ability to adapt to the ever-changing society. Therefore, many schools begin to adopt innovative teaching methods such as project-based learning and inquiry-based learning to encourage the development of children's innovative thinking.

Since the 20th century, technology integration and digital education have become another important feature of education. With the rapid development of Internet and digital technology, education has also begun to move towards digitalization and networking. Online courses, digital textbooks, virtual classrooms and other emerging educational methods are constantly emerging, making learning more flexible and convenient.
