First of all, the essence of education needs to be traced back to the essence of human life.
The essence of human beings lies in continuous free transcendence, which can be regarded as a generating process.
The object of education is human, and the essence of human life lies in generation. Only by constantly surpassing people can we reach the understanding of "Daquan" and "existence" itself. There are two forms of generation: static (manifested as habit) and dynamic (manifested as transcendence). Habit provides the premise for "generation", while transcendence is the way of generation and the result to be achieved.
Second, the generation in teaching is achieved through equal dialogue and communication between teachers and students.
The author advocates students' self-generation, self-selection and self-improvement in the teaching process, instead of teachers packing and instilling knowledge and understanding into students, highlighting students' dominant position in the learning process, opening their hearts to dialogue and interaction, and paying attention to the deep integration of emotions, needs and values. In the process of learning, students should have the ability of independent analysis, independent judgment and independent choice, and develop the consciousness of independent learning.
Third, pay attention to the cultivation of humanistic spirit in the generation of teaching content.
Attaching importance to the study of humanities can achieve the goal of "cultivating" people, make people re-examine the original living conditions and help to form a new attitude. Therefore, teachers should give guidance at an appropriate time according to students' life experience and respect students' interests, so as to arouse students' original understanding of beautiful things or knowledge and guide the origin of things.
The fourth is the purpose of education-to cultivate the "whole person", to generate freely and to awaken the soul. The purpose of education is to cultivate "people with all-round and multi-dimensional development", not people who have all kinds of skills and are only good at what they have learned or a certain kind of thinking, and to help students become themselves freely and become fresh individuals in line with their natural development.
The process of education is the process of free communication between teachers and students.
"The so-called education is nothing more than the communication between human beings and subjects, including the teaching of knowledge content, the understanding of life connotation and the standardization of will behavior. Through the cultural transmission function, the cultural heritage is passed on to the younger generation, allowing them to freely generate and enlighten their free nature." Through real education, individuals can open their hearts freely and infinitely, and personal development has unlimited possibilities.
(B) the mode of education
There are three types of education, namely, scholastic education, mentoring education and Socrates education.
First, academic education, for teachers, only needs to teach knowledge according to textbooks, which is arbitrary and replaceable; For students, it is foolish to just memorize ready-made knowledge and learn ready-made answers or conclusions.
Second, mentoring education, teacher-centered education, teachers have supreme authority, students must obey their stories, and their personality is completely ignored or even contained. Obviously, both methods failed.
The third is Socratic education, which refers to Socrates' "midwifery" method and does not provide ready-made answers. It is a kind of freedom to ask and answer questions through equal dialogue in the way of asking and answering, so that students can keep thinking, discover their own original contradictions, discover the truth together and gain true knowledge. Encourage students to explore morality, know the truth and pursue unlimited spirit.
Socrates midwifery is an educational method that Jasper attaches great importance to. Emphasize that teachers and students are on equal footing. Teachers and students are free to explore, and there is no fixed teaching form. Only through endless questioning can students feel their ignorance of the truth, and through teachers' irony, can they inspire, guide and awaken their self-meaning, so that they can understand the essence of things and obtain the truth in self-insight.
