Social standard theorists believe that the purpose of education is to train the educated into citizens who conform to social norms, socialize the educated and ensure the stability and continuity of social life;

In their view, social value is higher than personal value, and the existence and development of individuals depend on and belong to society. Evaluating the value of education can only be measured by its benefits to society. The representatives of this theory are Xunzi, Plato, Durkheim, Natop, Kerschensteiner, Bale and Comte.

Introduction of social standard theory;

Social-oriented education theory is opposite to individual-oriented education theory and children-oriented education theory. Some people think that the purpose of education should be established according to the requirements of society. /kloc-in the second half of the 9th century, the main representatives of western social schools were Comte of France, nuttall of Germany and Durkheim of France.

They believe that personal development depends on and is restricted by society. There is no real individual, only human beings exist; Man is a man only because he lives among people and participates in social life. All aspects of people's physical and mental development depend on society to provide nutrition, and everything comes from society.

The purpose of education is to socialize individuals. Individuals are only the raw materials of education, and have no value to determine the purpose of education. The purpose of education is to make individuals adapt to social life, become citizens and make contributions to society. The process of education is to impose social values or collective consciousness on individuals and transform children from people who have never had social characteristics into "social newcomers" with personal qualities needed by society.

The impact is as follows:

1, which breaks the myth that people are born with the qualities of truth, goodness and beauty, and thinks that personal development is the result of acquired socialization;

2. In some ways, the internal relationship between human development and society is separated, and individual development is blindly emphasized as the result of socialization, ignoring that social requirements can only be truly transformed into individual social quality through individual cognition and internalization. German educator Kerschensteiner believes that a country's education has only one purpose, that is, to cultivate citizens.
