If education is divorced from life, it will become passive water. Marx usually uses the concepts of perceptual activity, perceptual world and perceptual practice to express his concern about the real life world. He pointed out that "all social life is practical in essence" and that "neither thought nor language can form a special kingdom alone, but they are only manifestations of real life".
The combination of education and productive labor has always been an important part of education policy. At the national education conference, based on a profound understanding of the relationship between education and life, the general secretary put labor education at the strategic height of "who to train, how to train people and for whom", made clear the fundamental task of training socialist builders and successors with all-round development in morality, intelligence, physique, beauty and labor, and upgraded "four educations" to "five educations".
Labor education is the best life education and an effective way to promote education to return to life. The return of education to life is to create an educational form full of life flavor and characteristics, so that the main body of education can take root in life, the content of education should take care of life, the educational methods should be close to life, and educational activities should become life, thus changing the living conditions of students, the way teachers walk and the development mode of schools, and finally realizing the organic unity of the educational world and the living world.
The Report on Children's Participation in China compiled by China Children's Center 20 17 shows that:
From the content of parent-child communication in the family, 48.4% of primary and secondary school students talk to their parents about their studies every day, and 34.5% of primary and secondary school students have parental guidance every day. It can be seen that the most common communication between parents and children is learning and things related to academic performance.
When children's natural and rich family life is gradually invaded by homework, exams, remedial classes and interest classes, family education has also become a single knowledge education.
Learning is the bounden duty of children's development and an indispensable part of family life, but it is not the only important content. Too much emphasis on learning and developing skills will seriously weaken the educational function of families for children's growth.
