1960- 12, American economist Schultz delivered a speech on "human capital investment", which is called the "charter" founded by human capital theory. Pedagogy is a compulsory subject, and the accumulation of theoretical knowledge points is essential. According to the requirements of the syllabus, Fujian Education has compiled the review materials for the teacher recruitment examination-Pedagogical knowledge: What is the theory of human capital?

First of all, human resources are the most important of all resources. The theory of human capital is the core of economics.

Second, in economic growth, the role of human capital is greater than that of material capital. Investment in human capital is directly proportional to national income, which is growing faster than that of material resources.

Third, the core of human capital is to improve the quality of the population, and education investment is the main part of human investment. The reproduction of human capital should be regarded not only as a kind of consumption, but also as an investment, and its economic benefits are far greater than material investment. Education is the most basic means to improve human capital, so human investment can also be regarded as an education investment problem.

Fourthly, education investment should be based on the relationship between market supply and demand, with the fluctuation of human price as a measure. When the economy develops to a certain extent, the investment it can provide for education also reaches a certain degree, and the requirements for education are getting higher and higher. At the same time, the role of education in promoting economic development is becoming more and more obvious. Therefore, education and social productive forces are complementary and inseparable.
