Education is growth, and the original meaning of education is to make everyone's nature and innate ability grow healthily, rather than instilling external things into a container. Accordingly, intellectual education is to cultivate curiosity and rational thinking ability, not to instill knowledge; Moral education is to encourage lofty spiritual pursuit, not to instill norms; Aesthetic education is to cultivate rich souls, not to instill skills.
Educational principles
First, the principle of intuition
Intuition principle means that in teaching activities, teachers should make full use of students' various senses and existing experience, enrich students' direct experience and perceptual knowledge through various forms of perception, so that students can obtain vivid representations and master knowledge comprehensively and profoundly. There are many kinds of intuitive means, which are generally divided into three categories: intuitive object, intuitive model and intuitive language.
Second, the heuristic principle
The enlightening principle of teaching is put forward according to the law that the leading role of teachers and the subjectivity of students are unified in the teaching process. Teaching activities should be inspired and induced by teachers, so that students can be in a positive state and give full play to their initiative.
Third, the principle of merger.
The principle of solidity means that teachers should guide students to master knowledge and basic skills firmly on the basis of understanding, and remember them for a long time and present them accurately when necessary.
