Parents' attitudes and values dominate their children's future. Generosity has no horn, and great religion has no trace.
On the edge, with professional educational ability, dedicated educational attitude and serious entertainment spirit, create a happy and free growth space for children.
2 1 century competitions come from all over the world. Teenagers in China not only need to have excellent academic performance, but also need to better integrate into cultural differences, with open knowledge, active and lasting learning ability, extraordinary social skills and outstanding creativity!
Guiding children to become teenagers with international vision, international spirit, international quality, international culture, positive attitude towards life, strong self-confidence, cooperative social skills and outstanding creativity has always been the unremitting goal of Shanghainese.
Shanghai Education clearly put forward the educational concept of "self-creation", and through "self-creation", the creativity of young people is cultivated, so as to achieve the goal of training young people in China to become "excellent" creative international talents. The ultimate goal of education is to cultivate people who can live and who are needed by society. Only when individuals meet the needs of society can they reflect their personal values and achieve a better life!
From the first second of coming to this world to the last moment of leaving this world, people have been receiving education and educating others. Only those who are in need of society can survive and live happily in society. Therefore, education must meet the needs of society and adapt to the development direction of the world.
From the United States to Singapore, from Europe to the United Nations, enhancing creativity has almost become a consensus. 2 1 century also entered the so-called "creative era" (Florida, 2004).
From the development history of the world, we can all see the power of creativity. The past era, the era when every country is powerful, is also an era of extraordinary creativity! The German nation is the most rational, rigorous and stable nation in the world. Logical thinking is very strong, but Germans are also the most creative people in the world. This is great creativity. In modern history, most great philosophers and thinkers are Germans. Hegel, Marx, Kant, Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, Heidegger, Leibniz and Einstein were all German Jews. The British are also a rigid and rigorous nation among the western nations, but their contribution to science is obvious to all. Newton is English. Hume is English. Adam Smith is English and Darwin is English. These examples profoundly illustrate the close relationship between creativity and thinking, especially rational thinking. The strength of China in the Han and Tang Dynasties was also inseparable from creativity!
Creativity refers to the ability to generate new ideas, discover and create new things. It is a necessary psychological quality to successfully complete a creative activity. Creativity is a series of continuous, complex and high-level psychological activities. It requires people's full physical and intellectual tension and the highest level of creative thinking. It is generally believed that creativity is not only an ability, but also a complex psychological process and a novel product.
Learning ability includes three aspects: motivation, ability and willpower. It is what we call wanting to learn, knowing how to learn, and persisting in learning. These three points are interrelated and influence each other.
Social ability refers to a person's ability to integrate into society, adapt to society and create society. Including personal quality and psychological quality. Excellent personality qualities such as insatiable enterprising spirit, strong thirst for knowledge, sense of responsibility and proactive independent thinking spirit are important conditions and guarantees for creativity. Psychological qualities include self-confidence, teamwork spirit, firmness, fearlessness and tolerance.
Knowledge field refers to a person's understanding of the outside world, which is the inheritance of previous knowledge accumulation and also represents a person's vision.
Any creation is inseparable from knowledge, and the completeness and richness of knowledge are conducive to more and better creative ideas, and scientific analysis, identification, simplification, adjustment and correction of ideas; It is also conducive to the implementation and testing of creative solutions; This is an important part of creativity.
2 1 century competition comes from all over the world. Compared with developed countries, parents in developing countries pay more attention to the opportunities and skills given to their children by the outside world because of the pressure of domestic competition, which is understandable. However, China is rapidly integrating into international competition, and young people in China will live in a completely different way in the future. Many parents also find and feel that the difference between teenagers in China and those in developed countries is shocking.
Teenagers in China need "creativity", better integrate into cultural differences, broaden their horizons and participate in society. Therefore, it has always been Shanghai's unremitting goal to guide young people to have international spirit, international quality, international culture, broad vision, creativity, learning ability and social ability. Shanghai Education believes that it is the responsibility of educators to consciously create the environment and atmosphere for children's growth according to the needs of society and the characteristics of children, find their needs in the process of education, understand their confusion, guide them to think, encourage them to be confident, inspire them to explore and promote their success. In the process of children's growth, adults can't "give" them anything, and children's growth needs "self-creation".
For children, simple knowledge and skills are easy to master by themselves as long as they are interested and have methods, but the cultivation of interest, the mastery of learning methods, the formation of intelligence and the cultivation of sound personality all need the help of adults. This is the mission of quality education.
As long as a little observation, we can find that it is often peers who have the greatest influence on children, and the only child especially needs the environment and atmosphere among children; The future society is made up of grown-up children themselves, and their childhood friends are their partners in future life.
Adults have the responsibility to provide children with a peer environment, help them establish their own interpersonal relationships as soon as possible, help them find themselves in the crowd, understand others, learn to get along with others, practice social communication and communication skills, experience interpersonal relationships, establish self-awareness and independence, and gradually create their own interpersonal networks.
