What does the scientific nature of modern education mean?
The core of modern education is science education. The content of education is scientific, and the method of education is also scientific. Without science education, there would be no modern education. The opposite of science education is religious education or faith-based education; It is essentially different from empirical education or common sense education limited to knowledge and perceptual activities; It also broke the limitations of the so-called elegant education or classical culture education. Modern education requires students to systematically study scientific knowledge, including basic disciplines and related professional knowledge, learn and master comprehensive (basic) technologies and related professional technologies, cultivate hands-on and practical ability, and cultivate scientific spirit of pursuing truth, exploring and innovating, and devoting themselves to science to benefit mankind. Educational methods follow the scientific epistemological line, integrate theory with practice, attach importance to theory, observation, experiment, operation and social practice.

The profound social and historical practice foundation of science education lies in that social production and social life are becoming more and more scientific, and relying on science and technology provides fertile soil for the transformation and development of science and technology. The founder of Marxism scientifically revealed the law of the historical process in which the productive forces gradually transformed from physical strength, production experience and skills into science and technology. It is science and technology that links education with productive labor. Without science and technology, there would be no combination of modern education and productive labor. Similarly, without science and technology education, there will be no all-round development of individuals. Because science and technology are powerful productive forces and powerful tools to understand and transform the world and create a new life. Mastering science and technology means strengthening one's own strength and gaining more initiative and freedom in the face of the objective world, which is the spiritual essence of Marx's personal freedom, full and primitive development, that is, all-round development.
