Is the memory training launched by the World Memory Championship, that is, the new thinking education, useful?
I was a teaching assistant at New Thinking. First of all, I'm not talking about the fees and the treatment of students, I'm talking about the effect. It's really heartless to send children back to their parents. What do you think the students have learned, mnemonics? What stories to make up, what to connect, and where to look. Or a mind map? That is to say, the outline of the article or the structural diagram of the text in primary school is "beautified" into colored lines. Moreover, parents often enter a misunderstanding, that is, the effects of the so-called new thinking are all tricks, because these things are only suitable for remembering things that have not changed for thousands of years, like what 36 plans? These things are convenient memory skills acquired through "scientific research" and cannot be copied. Do you want students to study for a few years to recite a text? Moreover, teaching assistants often suppress and "enlighten" disobedient students, and may report to parents without conscience. We also have related "professional" words to call parents, and we often take printed manuscripts when sorting them out. In order to divert parents' attention, a video of "Apple Tree" (a touching ppt that has existed for a long time and became its business secret here) was put forward, which made the students cry bitterly and held a thanksgiving party to divert their attention.
