What is the significance of studying pedagogy?
The significance of learning pedagogy is mainly reflected in the following aspects: (1) Learning pedagogy is the need to improve the professional understanding of educators and establish the concept of scientific education. Educational idea is the most important thing for educators. Only by establishing a scientific concept of education and forming a correct educational thought can we effectively engage in educational work. Learning pedagogy is helpful for educators to deeply understand their careers, establish scientific educational concepts, strengthen their educational beliefs and do a good job in education. (2) Learning pedagogy is the need to help educators master educational laws, methods, technologies and their application principles. The scientific basis of correct education view is the law of education. Only the educational view that correctly reflects the law of education is a scientific educational view. Therefore, whether the educational concept is correct or not depends on whether we can correctly understand the educational law. The fundamental task of pedagogy is to explore and reveal the general laws of education, so as to better guide teachers to master the general laws of education in educational practice. It also needs to be linked with the specific methods and technologies in actual operation, and can't follow the old rules. Teachers also need to sum up experience according to the actual situation, give play to their creativity and make good use of methods and technologies. (3) Learning pedagogy is the need of making education policy correctly. To develop education, a country and a political party must establish certain educational principles and policies. Any educational principles and policies are the embodiment of the educational will of those in power. However, every principle and policy is by no means formulated by the ruling class at will, and it can only be effective if it follows the objective laws of education. Scientific education policy is the basic principle for socialist countries to formulate policies. In order to correctly formulate or consciously implement educational principles and policies, both leaders of educational work and people's teachers must seriously study the basic theory of education and master the laws of educational science to ensure the smooth progress of educational work. (D) Learning pedagogy is an urgent need to deepen educational reform and explore the future development of education. The stability of education is relative and the change is absolute. Both educational researchers and front-line teachers should devote themselves to it. Education reform can't be carried out blindly, and it needs the guidance of basic education theory. To carry out educational reform, we must find new contradictions on the basis of scientific analysis of the present situation of education, solve a large number of theoretical and practical problems in educational reform through scientific argumentation and experiments, and explore the future development prospects of education. (5) Learning pedagogy is the need of education discipline construction. The basic theory of pedagogy expounds the general laws and basic principles of education, which is of guiding significance to all educational disciplines. The key to the construction of education discipline is the team problem. Learning pedagogy is helpful for learners to master educational scientific knowledge, understand educational laws, learn certain technical methods, cultivate professional ideas, improve the quality level of educators, and be of great benefit to the construction of educational disciplines.
