Pursuing and realizing educational modernization will be the mainstream of educational reform in all countries in the 2 1 century. In the second half of the 20th century, the major developed countries in the world made various attempts and efforts in the process of realizing educational modernization, and carried out some modernization reforms in educational concepts, educational contents, educational systems, educational hardware facilities, educational methods, educational management and even the improvement of teachers' quality.

(a) Education for society and the future.

With the advent of the era of knowledge economy, the demand for social development is rising, and the knowledge level of the population is rapidly improving. Our educational function must be expanded and strengthened accordingly. The development of education must establish the concept of big education, establish the corresponding big education system, actively adapt to the market operation mechanism and mode under the guidance of the national macro education policy, and rationally adjust its social needs and flow direction. In particular, we should break through tradition, change indoctrination teaching, attach importance to the combination of education and practice, and attach importance to close contact with society, so as to adapt to the new situation of international basic education development, foster strengths and avoid weaknesses, stress practical results, base ourselves on China and look at the world. We should actively adapt to educational ideas, educational contents, educational technologies and methods, and educational management. , as soon as possible to meet the quality standards and requirements of personnel training in developed countries in line with international basic education.

(2) comprehensively improve the national creative ability.

The scientific and technological revolution and knowledge economy have raised innovation to the height of national life and death. Education should play a unique role in improving the spirit of national innovation, cultivating innovative talents and creating a national innovation system. Therefore, we must change the old educational concept and reform the one-way knowledge-instilling and discipline-centered teaching system. It is necessary to cultivate creative spirit and innovative ability throughout personnel training, encourage students to pursue truth and dare to innovate, create an atmosphere of independent thinking, dare to argue, be innovative and pragmatic, and create internal and external conditions for students to study and solve problems.

(C) comprehensively improve the quality of education

The quality of education is the life of a school. Quality not only refers to book knowledge and enrollment rate, but more importantly, people's all-round development and moral level, as well as noble sentiments and ideological realm. Therefore, socialist spiritual civilization should permeate all life and activities. Education is not only undertaken by schools, but also by society and families. Only by integrating society, family and school can it be conducive to the real implementation of the "five educations" and promote the leap-forward development of education quality.

(D) Building a strong contingent of outstanding teachers.

The hope of revitalizing the nation lies in education, and the key to revitalizing education lies in teachers. Teachers themselves should be role models and strive to strengthen their professional ethics. On the other hand, we should also improve the political, cultural, professional courses and professional level, and be versatile. Devote oneself wholeheartedly to the great cause of cultivating successors and builders of the socialist revolution.

(5) Increase investment in education and persist in running schools diligently.

All people should establish the concept of "rejuvenating the country through science and education", and make it clear that only by strengthening investment in education can science and technology be fundamentally developed, so as to improve labor productivity, realize China's leap-forward development, and enhance its comprehensive national strength and international competitiveness, so as to seize the initiative in the wave of science and technology in 2 1 century.

Because China is in the primary stage of socialism and the level of productivity development is limited, all kinds of schools have to charge fees except compulsory education. However, the people's income level is not high, so we should pay attention to the implementation of student loans, scholarships, work-study programs and other measures, increase investment in education, and improve the degree of education popularization.

Third, the future development trend of education

From an international point of view

1, Conceptualization of lifelong education

With the rapid update of knowledge, anyone must constantly learn new knowledge to enrich himself, accumulate and create more knowledge. And with the development of science and technology, the network has penetrated into thousands of households, relying on distance education, all kinds of people in society can enjoy multi-level and multi-type educational services. Therefore, the conceptualization of lifelong education is the inevitable result of the development of information society and economy, and it is also the basic trend of future education development.

2. Three-dimensional educational content

The knowledge taught by teachers is no longer single and inflexible. But more systematic and three-dimensional. It is beneficial to stimulate students' interest and enthusiasm in learning. Actively play the role of students as cognitive subjects.

3. Diversification of educational means

In the future, the means of education will no longer be simple and rude, and with the development of economy, the means of teaching will become more and more diversified. By organizing extracurricular activities, watching videos and organizing games, you can learn all kinds of knowledge. This will help students understand and accept knowledge and improve their ability to acquire subject knowledge.

4. Future Education Network.

Today, with the rapid spread of information, the development of computer multimedia technology and virtual reality technology has fundamentally changed the mode of people's information exchange and realized the high sharing of information resources. At the same time, it is also conducive to improving learners' innovative ability to process and apply digital information.

(2) From the perspective of China.

1. Education should be innovative and learn from others.

The world theme of peace and development and the rapid development of science and technology make the opening and exchange of education between countries become the trend of the times, thus forming a great education era. China's education in the 2 1 century should be at the forefront of the world's education development. On the one hand, we should inherit and maintain the advantages and essence of Chinese national education, base ourselves on reality and rely on tradition, implement the integration of ancient and modern, and realize national individuality. On the other hand, we should also open our minds, absorb the good places of education in different countries, take the essence and discard the dross, and implement complementarity between China and foreign countries.

2. Take strengthening basic education as the leading factor and optimize the educational structure.

The fundamental factor that determines the comprehensive national strength is the national quality of a country, which in turn depends on the basic education level of a country. Since the Meiji Restoration, one of the important experiences of Japan's successful modernization is to popularize education, attach importance to basic education and improve the quality of its people. The improvement of workers' quality has laid a solid foundation for Japan to introduce, absorb and digest foreign advanced technology and form a high-level quality in the process of production and service. It is precisely because of the unique role of basic education in building comprehensive national strength that all countries regard it as the key to adjusting the educational structure reform.

3, according to the national conditions, reasonable layout, improve efficiency.

China will go through the stage of economic take-off in the next few decades and basically realize socialist modernization. The goal of social progress requires improving the popularization of education and ensuring the supply of senior professionals urgently needed by the country. Therefore, China should guarantee compulsory education, run vocational education and higher education well, improve the quality of the whole people and continuously cultivate outstanding talents. However, due to China's vast territory and large number of students, we can't make some sparrow-like layout, but should make regional layout from the perspective of quality and efficiency. It is necessary to concentrate the limited investment in education on the key development of colleges and universities, implement the mode of concentrating financial resources, teachers and students, and finally realize the concentration of advantages.

4. Curriculum reform with learning to care as the main content.

Take care of yourself, including your health

Care about your family, friends and strangers.

Concerned about the social, economic and ecological interests of society and the country.

Care about human rights.

Care about other species.

Concerned about the living conditions of the earth.

Care about truth, knowledge and learning.

5. Socialized and open education system with lifelong education as the main form.

In the future society, with the reduction of working hours and the increase of leisure time, people's lives will be reduced.

The concepts of school, work and retirement will be eliminated. School is no longer a place to prepare everything for students' lives, and education will run through people's lives.

In order to participate in global competition in science and technology and economy, we must develop education. China's development strategy is to truly implement the development of education in the strategy of rejuvenating the country through science and education, and to shift economic growth to relying mainly on scientific and technological progress and improving the quality of workers. There is a big gap between the current situation of education in China and the development trend, so it is urgent to strengthen publicity and raise awareness. Increase investment to ensure the popularization and development of education. Gradually establish a set of continuing education system and system suitable for the national conditions of China. We will constantly improve the quality of citizens to meet the needs of global economic and technological competition and meet new challenges and opportunities.
