(1) The goal of life education. The teleology of "life education" is the basic starting point of Chen Heqin's educational theory. He pointed out that the purpose of "living education" is to be a man, a China person and a modern China person. In other words, we should have a sound body, creative ability, service spirit, cooperative attitude and world vision.
(2) Life education courses. Chen Heqin believes that the curriculum content of traditional education is fixed, the teaching materials are boring, teachers only teach one lesson at a time, and students only learn one lesson at a time. Such reading can only make a "bookworm". In view of the serious disadvantages of traditional education, we can only advocate "living education". The course of living education takes nature and society as the starting point and allows students to learn directly.
The curriculum theory of "life education" does not abandon books, but only emphasizes the nature and society of life, and book knowledge should be a portrayal of the real world and should be confirmed in nature and society, which can reflect children's physical and mental characteristics and life characteristics. He concretized the content of life education as "five-finger activity". It is generally carried out through five activities: children's health, children's society, children's nature, children's art and children's literature.
(3) Teaching principles of life education. Children should be taught to do what they can; Children should be allowed to think for themselves whatever they can think of; If you want children to do it, you should teach them how to study. Encourage children to discover their own world; Positive encouragement is better than negative sanctions; Nature and society are our living teaching materials; Teaching gamification; Storytelling of teaching; Group teaching, etc.
(4) methods of life education. Teaching while doing, learning while doing, and making progress while doing. He thinks "doing" is the basis of students' learning? Foundation, so it is also the starting point of the methodology of "living education". Chen Heqin emphasized the role of thinking while emphasizing doing. Pay attention to outdoor activities, pay attention to life experience, take physical objects as the research object, and use books as auxiliary teaching materials.
