Teachers are navigators of knowledge, stimulating students' thirst for knowledge and guiding them to explore unknown fields. In this process, it is particularly important to choose the correct teaching materials and strategies. This paper will introduce Dalton system, a teaching mode, and discuss how to create a learning environment full of exploration and discovery for students through teaching innovation.

Make an action plan

Dalton system is a teaching system initiated by American educator Burke Hurst at Dalton Middle School in Massachusetts on 1920. This unique "Dalton laboratory teaching system" compares the school to a "sociology laboratory" and encourages students to become brave "experimenters". It provides us with valuable reference and helps us to make an action plan.

Implement teaching innovation

Dalton system emphasizes the respect for students' individuality, and advocates abolishing the traditional class-based teaching mode and replacing it with the homework room of each subject. Here, students can freely control their time and study independently according to their own interests and rhythms. On the other hand, teachers retreat behind the scenes and act as consultants, giving students the necessary guidance and support. We can put this idea into practice through teaching innovation.

Evaluating and verifying teaching mode

Through observation and feedback, we can evaluate and verify Dalton system as a teaching model. Constantly optimize teaching strategies to ensure that every student can find his own learning style in this "laboratory".
