Mr. Tao Xingzhi, a people's educator, founded the theory of "life education". During his life's educational career, Mr. Tao practiced himself, which made this theory develop and improve constantly, leaving an extremely glorious page in the modern educational history of China. The main body of life education is "life is education". From the standpoint of working people in China, Tao Xingzhi started from the real life in China at that time, looking for the dawn of education in China at that time, so as to realize his great wish of "conquering nature and transforming society". This is his foothold and basic guiding ideology in exploring China's educational road. Under the guidance of this clear scientific thought, Tao Xingzhi put forward that "life is the center of education" and "education should cultivate vitality" in our creed from 65438 to 0926, which laid the theoretical foundation for life education. Tao Xingzhi's understanding of "life" has clear meaning and specific content. According to the actual social life in China at that time, he explicitly opposed the decadent life of the landlord and bourgeoisie, and also opposed the ignorant and backward life without a plan. According to his life experience in Xiaozhuang Normal School, he clearly put forward: "We are modern people. If we want to live a modern life, we must receive modern education."
