Zankov

Zankov (лвванков,190/-1977) is a famous educator and psychologist in the Soviet Union.

Zankov worked as a primary school teacher and a children's educator in the countryside when he was young.

After graduating from Moscow University, I studied the learning characteristics and psychology of disabled children.

1950, specializing in general education research.

He has made great achievements in many aspects, mainly reflected in his research on teaching theory.

He believes that the traditional teaching theory of Kailov in the Soviet Union only focuses on how to make children master ready-made knowledge and concepts. Its main characteristics are school first, classroom teaching first and knowledge first, which ignores the development of students' intelligence, that is, the development of students' thinking, imagination, logic and memory.

Therefore, it is necessary to thoroughly reform the traditional teaching theory and establish a new teaching theory system.

Zankov has proved through experiments that the traditional teaching methods make the development of junior students (his experiments are carried out in junior grades) very poor, while the actual learning ability of primary school students is far higher than that of the defenders of traditional teaching ideas. In other words, the learning potential of primary school students has not been brought into play.

The main direction of teaching reform is to promote the all-round development of students.

In his view, general development "refers to the development of children's personality and its development in all aspects."

Like all-round development, general development is the opposite of average and one-sided development.

"Universal development is neither equal to' all-round development' nor a substitute for' all-round development'.

The former refers to the psychological aspect of the problem, while the latter refers to the social aspect.

Zankov summed up the principles of teaching experiments through his own experimental research.

These principles are: (1) difficult teaching principles; (2) the principle of high-speed education; (3) the important principle of theoretical knowledge; (4) Let students understand the principles of the learning process; (5) The principle of universal development for all students in the class (including the worst students).

Zankov attaches great importance to educational experiment, which is the basic research method to reveal the objective law of "teaching and development".

Zankov's teaching theory had a far-reaching impact on Soviet education. His works, such as Teaching Theory and Life, Conversation with Teachers, are praised as "required reading for teachers in the Soviet Union".

Zankov's main works are: Primary School Teaching Theory, Dialogue with Teachers, Teaching and Development, Principles of Teaching Theory on Teaching, Experiment of New Teaching System in Primary School, Our Opinions are Different, and Experimental System of Primary School Teaching.

Some of his works have been widely introduced to the United States, Japan, China and other countries.

Kailov

Noun (abbreviation of Noun) A. Kaiipob (N.A. Kaiipob, 1893- 1978), a famous educator in the former Soviet Union, was one of the representatives of Soviet pedagogy in the 1940s and 1950s.

Pedagogy, edited by him, once had a great influence on our country.

1983 Kailov was born into a teacher's family in Ryazan, Russian Federation.

19 17 graduated from the Department of Mathematics and Science of Moscow University, majoring in natural science.

Kailov is basically an educator who grew up in Soviet society. He tried to analyze, demonstrate and absorb a large number of rich heritages in the history of human education by using Marxist standpoints, viewpoints and methods, and realistically summed up the positive and negative experiences and lessons of education in the former Soviet Union in the 1920s and 1930s. On this basis, Pedagogy was published, which is the first time in the history of human education to try to explain the theory of socialist pedagogy from the perspective of Marxism–Leninism.

After its publication, this book was designated as the teaching material of normal colleges in the former Soviet Union, with high authority, which also had a great influence on education in socialist countries such as China and North Korea.

Kailov's educational theory represents an important stage in the development of the former Soviet Union's educational theory, and reflects the level and characteristics of the former Soviet Union's educational theory in the historical period from the end of 1930s to the end of 1950s.

It should be pointed out that Kailov's educational theory basically met the needs of the education development in the former Soviet Union at that time.

However, due to the rapid development of science and technology in the world, higher requirements are put forward for educational theory. In this context, some of his views are outdated and backward.

For example, there is not enough research on the reaction of education to social development, insufficient attention to students' intellectual development, advocating a "bumper harvest" of education, but disdaining teaching students in accordance with their aptitude, and treating training "top students" as bourgeois genius education.

These are all things that we need to distinguish strictly when we learn from them.

In a word, Kailov's educational thought is more comprehensive, complete and systematic than his predecessors.

Comenius

When he was young, he was elected as the priest of the Czech Brotherhood and presided over the Brotherhood School.

Bloom (mastering learning methods)

B S BLOOM (19 13 ~) is a famous contemporary American psychologist and educator, and is currently an honorary professor at the University of Chicago.

The core content of Bloom's whole teaching theory is the theory of "mastering learning".

In the early 1970s, Bloom pointed out that the current education system in the United States only focused on cultivating a few top students, but at the expense of most students, and thought that today's education can no longer be satisfied with only a small number of students fully learning what the school taught. Nor should there be such a psychological stereotype:13 students can fully grasp the knowledge taught by teachers, and13 students have average grades, and13 students can fail.

Bloom believes that the best way to solve the above problems lies in changing our views on learners and their learning and implementing "mastery learning" teaching.

The so-called "mastering learning" means that under the guidance of "all students can learn well", based on collective teaching (class teaching system), supplemented by regular and timely feedback, students are provided with the personalized help they need and the extra learning time they need, so that most students can reach the mastery standard stipulated by the curriculum objectives.

Bruner (discovery method)

Jerome Seymor (Bruner 19 15-) is an American psychologist and educator, and one of the representatives of structuralist education school.

1 91510/October1He was born in a middle-class family in new york, USA.

1972- 1978 Bruner is a professor of psychology at Oxford University in England.

1978 retired and returned to China.

The main educational works are: Educational Process (1960), On Cognition, Discussion on Teaching Theory (1966), Educational Suitability, etc.

In teaching methods, Bruner advocates "discovery learning". He believes that children should express the structure of subject knowledge in their own unique way of observing things under the guidance of teachers, and discover things with the help of teachers or other materials provided by teachers.

Bruner emphasized that discovery is the main means of educating children.

"There seems to be an essential ingredient in human learning. Like discovery, this is an opportunity to try to explore the situation.

He also stressed: "If we want to look forward to what is particularly important to the school, we have to ask how to train generations of children to discover and discover problems.

"

Dewey

Dewey (1859- 1952), an American educator, is a representative figure of pragmatic educational thought.

Dewey criticized the traditional school education on the basis of pragmatism, empiricism and functional psychology, and put forward his basic views on the essence of education: "Education is life" and "School is society".

Dewey believes that education is the process of children's life now, not the preparation for their future life.

He said: "Life is development, and continuous development is life.

Therefore, the best education is "learning from life" and "learning from experience".

Education is to provide children with conditions to ensure their growth or complete life.

Because life is growth, and children's development is the process of primitive instinctive growth, Dewey emphasized: "Growth is the characteristic of life, so education is growth.

"In his view, education is not to force children to absorb external things, but to enable human beings to grow their innate abilities.

Therefore, Dewey believes that the educational process has no purpose outside itself, and the purpose of education lies in the educational process.

As a matter of fact, he opposes taking externally imposed goals as indicative goals for children's growth.
