1, Comenius's great teaching theory is generally regarded as the beginning of the formation of an independent discipline of pedagogy. Published in 1630, this book systematically expounds all aspects of pedagogy, including educational purposes, principles, methods and curriculum design. This is closely related to the social needs and educational practice at that time.
2. Comenius put forward the idea of pan-intellectual education in On Great Teaching, emphasizing that education should be open to all, regardless of social status, gender, age and race, and everyone should have the opportunity to receive education. This kind of educational thought was very progressive at that time and had a far-reaching impact on the development of education later.
3. In the Great Teaching Theory, Comenius also elaborated a series of modern education systems, such as class teaching system, school year system and school day system, which laid the foundation for the formation of modern school education system. He also put forward the idea of "intuitive teaching", emphasizing that students should acquire knowledge through direct perception, not just books.
4. The Great Teaching Theory also put forward many specific teaching methods, such as "natural adaptability principle", "step by step principle" and "systematic principle", which had a far-reaching impact on the later teaching method reform. These thoughts of Comenius were not only very progressive at that time, but also widely used and developed in later educational practice.
