The story of the stupid old man in America
A long process leads to great results.
"Yugong Mountain" is an ancient legend in China. Today, there is also a "Gong Yu" in South Dakota. He wants to turn a mountain183m high into the largest statue in the world. Although this was to realize the dreams of some Indians, it enabled Polish-American sculptor Corcec Soolkowski to develop a very large family business.
Corcec assisted in the sculpture of the Presidential Memorial Statue in Mount Rushmore. Later, Indian leaders asked him to create a statue of19th century Indian patriarch "Ma Fan" riding a horse. Corcec agreed. At that time, he only had 174 dollars and a few explosives in his pocket, that is, 1948. Corcec had 18 children after marriage, and later he added 18 grandchildren. His wealth has also grown to $5 million and a lot of explosives. 1982 After Corcec died at the age of 72, his family inherited his career. Casimir, who started to help his father blow up rocks at the age of seven, said that his four children would continue to finish the carving project of "mamie" Mountain like him.
Casimir supervised the progress of the statue project. His brother Mike is logging in the mountains, Adam is in charge of the farm, and his sister monique is in charge of measuring and calculating the position of blasting and cutting. Ann is in charge of Indian museums, Marika makes paintings and sculptures for souvenir shops, JetVega is in charge of restaurants, Tang is in charge of all inquiries, and Corcec's 63-year-old widow Ruth is in charge of the operation of the whole enterprise. The statue memorial hall "Ma Fan" was killed at the age of 33. His statue project has been going on for more than 40 years, which is longer than his life, but now only the prototype of the statue can be seen. Quality education is a process of exploration (education should pay attention to the process)
Quality-oriented education pays attention to the process rather than the result, that is, it mainly focuses not on what to learn, but on how to learn, digest, understand and apply this knowledge to form one's own ability and quality. Here, we can't stop learning some knowledge, but let students understand and master the complete process closely related to these results and a class of facts, and think and explore this process. As Einstein said, "Science is some interesting explorations", in fact, the science presented to students is a vivid and dynamic process of how nature and society move, and it is a process of exploration. This is by no means a rigid and static knowledge transfer in exam-oriented education.
The process of quality education is situational, pleasant and procedural, which dilutes the results, leaves students with space for discussion and time for thinking, stimulates and cultivates students' strong interest and curiosity in this process, and enables students to discover the reality of the process that leads to a certain result. What this kind of quality education should do, no matter what kind of content combination, firmly grasp the process. such as
Ideological quality education enables students to know how to be human, physical and mental quality enables students to learn to maintain physical and mental health, and cultural quality education guides students to accumulate and enrich their own comprehensive cultural heritage, so that knowledge becomes their spiritual wealth.
From knowledge to ability and quality, students can truly realize the transformation from exam-oriented education to quality education. Only in this way can students have the potential, ability and quality to grow independently, survive independently, seek development and benefit the society. An event in Mr. Qi Gong's "Cultural Revolution" (taking suffering as a process of life)
Mr. Qi Gong is a famous calligrapher, cultural relic connoisseur, philologist and educator in China. Kay is over ninety years old, but her spirit is still strong and her words are full of optimism and openness. He recalled that when he was in his fifties, he was in labor reform, and his wife died, and his life was extremely difficult. He made an epitaph for himself. But despite the bleak mood at that time, the epitaph was full of humor.
The students of Qigong once mentioned to the outside world that Qigong cleaned the toilet during the Cultural Revolution. At that time, many literary and art workers were working with him to reform through labor. Most people are frowning and sighing. Mr. Qi Gong is still optimistic. Once, Mr. Qi Gong and another gentleman cleaned the public toilet. When cleaning, Mr. Qi Gong talked about how to clean the toilet. Another gentleman admires Mr. Qi Gong's spirit of enjoying everything. From cleaning toilets to summing up experience, this is a typical example of how to pay attention to the process. The process of TCM treatment needs to be clear (the process is very important)
Chinese medicine is one of the essences of our national culture. But compared with western medicine, its influence in the world is still too small. It is not widely accepted because the process is too obscure.
Modern science and technology have advanced by leaps and bounds, and people's education level has generally improved. Therefore, the technical problems of western medicine can be easily understood and accepted through popular science propaganda and patients' own feelings. Originally, treatment should pay attention to the results, but when it comes to their own lives, people put a little more energy into it, not only depending on the results, but also on the process. From this process, western medicine obviously has advantages. Detection means and complicated instruments satisfy the patient-modern technology is supporting him; He felt at ease about his high fever and frequent dressing changes. Because he understands that high fever is caused by viruses and bacteria, different drugs are aimed at different flora, bacteria are also resistant, new drugs will kill drug-resistant flora, viruses will mutate and so on.
It is difficult to see the process of treating diseases in traditional Chinese medicine, to popularize science, and to make it clear to laymen. And the simple diagnosis method also makes patients feel uneasy. Can a person who has received modern science and technology education accept yin and yang and five elements? Can an ordinary patient understand that the pulse is slippery and heavy? I once heard a patient ask the doctor in the hospital: How does Chinese medicine diminish inflammation? The doctor replied: Chinese medicine does not have this concept, which is similar to clearing heat. The doctor's answer should be correct, but this explanation is unacceptable to patients.
Therefore, in the process of spreading to the world, our Chinese medicine practitioners should make some adjustments to make the process clearer and easier to understand.
Edison's process of invention
In order to develop filament, Edison experimented with 1600 materials. It took nine years to develop the battery, tested more than 9,000 materials and experienced numerous failures. In the end, even his best assistant couldn't hold on, but he persevered and never wavered and finally succeeded. Every invention of his has a difficult and arduous process. In addition to curiosity, he also has an instinct to experiment by himself, that is, he has the energy of unlimited efforts beyond ordinary people and the spirit of daring to face the long and arduous process. The formation process of excellent works (this process is a painful experience)
Most famous works in history have gone through a long process of creation.
It took 18 years for Sima Qian to write Historical Records in the Western Han Dynasty. Zuo Si wrote Sandu Fu in the Western Jin Dynasty, which lasted 10 years. It took 19 years for Sima Guang to write Zi Tong Zhi Jian in Song Dynasty. It took Li Shizhen 30 years to write Compendium of Materia Medica in Ming Dynasty. "Peach Blossom Fan" written by Confucius in Qing Dynasty took 15 years and was revised five times. In Qing Dynasty, Cao Xueqin wrote A Dream of Red Mansions, which took 10 years and was added and deleted five times.
The story of Levin Hook, the father of the microscope (the process can be diversified)
All roads lead to Rome, and the process of pursuing success is varied. Everything depends on human effort, and the key is to choose your own path. After unremitting efforts, there will be a satisfactory result.
Levin Hooke, who invented the microscope to discover bacteria, dropped out of school in his teens because of his poor family and worked as a janitor in a Dutch municipal government.
He has no systematic natural science education, but he is very interested in biology. He likes every plant, flower, bird, insect and fish in nature. He feels that the biological world is infinite and has great charm that fascinates him. Guided by this interest, he studied for a long time. 1665, Levin Hooke invented a microscope. For him, it's like adding wings to a tiger, as if he had a pass to enter the microscopic world. Levin Hook used a microscope to observe things that are hard to see with the naked eye, such as the wings of flies, the claws of spiders, and the fibers of wool. The wonderful microscopic world excited him. He kept observing and recording.
1673, he compiled the observation records into a paper "Several Records of Levin Hooke Observing Insects such as Skin, Meat and Bees with a Self-made Microscope" and sent it to the Royal Society. This article has not been recognized by academic circles. Many people are skeptical about the content in the article. Because no one has seen the microscopic world described in this article. Levin Hook was not discouraged. He believes that only stronger evidence can sweep away the prejudice of the authorities. He continued to observe all kinds of animals and plants with a microscope. Found bacteria by accident.
1680, Levin Hook was elected as a member of the Royal Society. This is the best compliment to his efforts in the past 20 years. The process of discovering gas
The process of success is varied.
Today, in daily life and production, people have widely used gas as energy. The realization of changing coal into gas has brought a lot of convenience to mankind. At the same time, mankind will always remember the discoverer of gas, British chemist William Meldau.
One day when William Meldo was a child, he dug some shale on the hillside. The local people know that this kind of stone can be ignited by fire. However, on a whim, Xiaomiduo brought the stone home. After that, he found a kettle, put the shale in the kettle, and then heated the kettle.
"After heating it, what will become? Can it still be lit? " Xiaomei, wanted to think, carefully observed the changes in the kettle. After a while, the kettle began to steam. Xiaomeiduo opened the lid of the pot and struck a match to see if the shale could still be lit. Unexpectedly, as soon as the burning match arrived at the kettle, the flame suddenly jumped up and the gas burned!
Twenty years later, one day in 1792, while studying coal mine information, Merdo remembered playing coal games as a child. He thought, "It can make the flame soar suddenly, indicating that the gas is burning." This gas may have some use value. "In this way, the era of human use of gas began.
