Comenius is the father of pedagogy, and his works include Great Teaching Theory, School of Motherhood, World Map and so on.
The Great Teaching Theory marks that pedagogy has become an independent discipline and is the first pedagogy book in modern times.
Parenting School is the first book about preschool education.
World Illustration is the first textbook for children's illustrations.
The teaching principle is systematic. Corresponding to the principle of gradual progress, knowledge acquisition is orderly and hierarchical, and teaching must organize knowledge in this order, so that knowledge can become a systematic whole and children can acquire systematic knowledge according to the natural rhythm.
Other teaching principles:
1, intuitive principle
The external experience gained through the senses is the foundation of science teaching. Comenius thinks this is the most important teaching principle and calls it the golden rule.
2. The principle of gradual progress
Education should arrange the teaching order reasonably, from simple to difficult, from unknown to known, so that what is learned first can lay a solid foundation for later learning.
3. The principle of merger
Comenius believes that teaching must enable students to acquire solid knowledge, master knowledge thoroughly and use knowledge freely, which is the standard to measure whether teaching and learning are thorough or not. Therefore, the consolidation principle is also called the thoroughness principle of pedagogy.
