Single teaching method: traditional teaching methods are usually teacher-centered, students passively accept knowledge and lack the process of interaction and inquiry, which is not conducive to the cultivation of students' innovative thinking and practical ability.
Ignoring students' emotions and values: Traditional education often only pays attention to students' academic achievements, but ignores the cultivation of students' emotions and values, which is not conducive to students' all-round development.
Unbalanced educational resources: in traditional education, educational resources are often concentrated in a few cities and regions, while the vast rural and remote areas are relatively short of educational resources, which also restricts the development of education and the realization of educational equity.
Single education evaluation: The traditional education evaluation method is usually based on examination results, which is not comprehensive and scientific enough to comprehensively evaluate students' learning effect and teachers' teaching level.
The essence of China's traditional thought is actually Confucianism, that is, benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and faith. Mencius put forward "benevolence, courtesy and wisdom", and Dong Zhongshu extended it to "benevolence, courtesy and wisdom", which was later called "the five permanent members". Benevolence is the most basic and highest virtue, and it is also the most common virtue standard. The combination of benevolence and righteousness, as the representative of morality: "Benevolence is extremely forbearing." Righteousness has become a kind of outlook on life and values, such as "duty-bound", "duty-bound", "courageous", "duty-bound" and "upright". Righteousness is the responsibility and dedication of life, such as free clinic, charity performance, charity sale and obligation. This is still a manifestation of China people's lofty morality. Courtesy and benevolence are both exterior and interior, benevolence is the internal spirit of propriety, and paying attention to propriety is an important traditional virtue of "a state of etiquette". "Li Ming" talks about civilization in a broad sense; In a narrow sense, as a manifestation of treating people and things, it is called "ceremony" and "etiquette"; As a kind of cultivation, it is called "politeness"; Used to deal with the relationship with others, it is called "comity". Inheriting and carrying forward rites is the need of building a harmonious society. Faith is the foundation of being a man and the way to develop your career and manage the world. Keeping promises and keeping promises are the recognized value standards and basic virtues of the Chinese nation.
