If Academician Zhong Nanshan dares to speak, then Yu Yi, a people's educator, dares to teach and speak.
Recently, I am reading Yu Yi's Attitude towards Education, which is a collection of articles published by her for many years. This book is divided into six parts. The first part is "The Sorrow of Vertebral Heart and the Desire of Sincerity". Through this part of the 17 article, we can see that she is an outspoken teacher.
On the basis of affirming the remarkable achievements in education in the past 30 years of reform and opening-up, she can face the current situation of education and expose the disadvantages of education-chaos. She is deeply worried and sincerely appeals to parents, schools and teachers!

Educators at all times and all over the world have a common view that education is to "teach people", to teach students to "become people" and to "complete people's beautiful qualities".
Nowadays, the influence of knowledge on the nourishment of the soul, the cultivation of emotions, the gestation of ideals, the development of thinking and the expansion of career has not disappeared, but it is hard to find traces. The beautiful scenery of new discoveries, new epiphanies and new pursuit of knowledge is rare.
Seeing that some schools unilaterally pursue the enrollment rate, ranking teachers according to students' scores, and that while the state advocates reducing students' burden, parents send their children to various remedial classes to continue their studies in order to improve their scores, Mr. Yu Yi sent out the message that "educating students or educating them is the fundamental problem in running education".
This not only makes us wonder, "What's the score?"
The grade book is a sign of monitoring the teaching situation. The key point is to understand the learning situation and teaching situation, sum up experiences and lessons, improve teaching and improve teaching quality. Now the score has been elevated to the supreme position, and some people almost worship it as a totem. In the face of the selection examination, students, teachers, parents and schools have almost become "slaves", and they are used to it unconsciously.
Teaching is determined by the exam, and what to teach is determined by the exam. Without examination, the nature and function of the subject are abandoned, and students' cognitive laws are rarely considered. Originally obsessed with knowledge points, it further developed to seize the scoring points. Grasp the scoring point in class, keep your eyes bright, pay attention, not the scoring point, hold your breath and have no strength.
As a means of detection and selection, examination is understandable. The purpose of the test is to improve teaching methods, improve teaching quality, and make students more interested in learning and more independent. However, taking exam-oriented education as the goal and pursuing the enrollment rate as the goal will deviate from the track of educating people and will also cause obvious harm to the healthy development of students.
Some schools even link teachers' performance appraisal, professional title evaluation and honor recognition. Based on test scores, enrollment rate, and the last elimination system. This makes grades not only the lifeblood of students but also the lifeblood of teachers. Teachers' pursuit of high marks breeds all kinds of chaos that they suppress students' language violence and practice.
Because the quality of education is evaluated by scores and the school is judged by the enrollment rate, it is written that the school tries its best to raise the threshold for students to enter school. For example, if they know the word 1500, they can enter the first grade of primary school. Parents will soon extend their children's literacy and arithmetic to early childhood, which will promote their children's growth.
It is precisely because we want to stay ahead of the starting line and continue to maintain the leading edge that various textual researches have emerged. Schools choose students, parents choose schools, and striped students are chaotic.

Yu Yi believes that recognizing many sources of confusion is the first step to change the educational dilemma. The roots of educational chaos are very complicated, including the problems of educational ideas, institutional mechanisms and interest-driven.
The most important thing to solve this problem is to deepen the educational reform, administer education according to law, develop schools, return education to the source of educating people, and let every student grow up happily.
Throughout the world today, the value differences under the multicultural background have alienated the correct direction of education; The utilitarian choice of economic society impacts the basic bottom line of education; The amplification effect of online media weakens the credibility of this kind of education; A great deal of complicated information dispels the educational function of education.
All these make education bear unbearable heaviness, unbearable pain and unbearable confusion.
There is the soul of education in chaos, the voice of true knowledge in noise, and the star of right view in confusion. As an educator, Yu Yi dared to set things right and let the soul of education shine. Through the noise, let the voice of true knowledge play; In confusion, point out the shining stars and let people find the right direction.

Teacher Yu Yi is a person who always thinks independently. Because of independent thinking, she can always find the essence behind new and unusual phenomena when people are rushing to chase the trend. In the face of complicated phenomena and restless reality, she can always stay awake enough and adhere to the correct value orientation.
Teacher Yu Yi has an open career, broad mind, love for education and lofty mission spirit. It is precisely because of these foundations that her independent thinking makes people feel knowledgeable, high and tolerant.
She will always be an example for us to learn from.
