First, what is education?
Education consists of "teaching" and "education". "Teaching" is effective in practice and effective in practice. Here, "teaching" focuses on imparting knowledge, which is the main responsibility of teachers. "Education" and "Shuowen": "Raising children makes them good." Emphasize that the cultivation of moral behavior habits is the main responsibility of parents. The combination of the two is the whole of education, so teachers teach, but parents must educate people, and parents are teachers for their children's lives and even their lives.
Second, the essence of education
Life is education.
Tao Xingzhi believes: "Life education is the original, independent and necessary education of life. The fundamental meaning of education is to change life. Life is always like this, that is, life always contains the meaning of education. " He believes that life has an educational effect on people. He believes: "As soon as life rubs against life, it plays an educational role. Both the grinder and the ground have changed. They are all educated. " In other words, education cannot be divorced from life, which is the essence of education.
Third, how to educate.
Children's education is shared by family, school and society, which complement each other and are indispensable. Family education is the core.
The responsibility of family education is to take care of children's lives, cultivate children's habits, help children do their homework, and teach children to deal with four kinds of relationships: people and society (encouraging children to participate in social practice activities), people and others (helping children to establish good interpersonal relationships), people and nature (loving, perceiving and protecting nature), and people and themselves (learning to convince themselves and learn to be flexible).
Education is a big proposition, but the author explains the meaning and essence of education and the responsibility of family education. You are welcome to add criticism and correct me.
