It is said that one side of the soil and water will support one side. Speaking of Li's humility, we have to say the regional cultural characteristics of Dingnan. I have never been to Dingnan before. I thought Dingnan, located in the southern border of Jiangxi, would be as closed and backward as many counties in the western mountainous areas. However, after this close contact with Dingnan with the New Education Research Institute, my imaginary "Dingnan impression" was subverted.
Dingnan is a place called "the cradle of Hakka". The identity of Hakkas makes Dingnan people feel humble in their blood. In contact with director Li and a group of Dingnan educators, we clearly felt this. Although Dingnan is far from Nanchang, the provincial capital, it is adjacent to Guangzhou and Shenzhen. Locals nicknamed Dingnan the "Five Rings" and "Shenzhen's Back Garden". Due to its special regional location, Dingnan was directly radiated by the developed areas. This small mountain town with a population of more than 200,000 is not inferior to the county towns in the eastern coastal areas in terms of urban appearance and modern temperament. Therefore, the humility shown by Dingnan people is not really humility, but a gesture of treating people and things, and Dingnan is powerful.
This is the second time to meet Director Li. The first time we met was during the annual meeting of new education this year. At that time, Director Li took the initiative to find me and added WeChat to each other. Later, we just praised each other in the circle of friends. Because I didn't indicate his identity when I added Director Li's WeChat, I only indicated "Dingnan Li", so I mistakenly thought that he was a sentimental principal in Dingnan.
I like dancing and writing at ordinary times, and I have a special affection for the same kind who can control words. Since I have browsed some articles calling myself "code word craftsman Li" in my circle of friends, when I knew I was going to Dingnan this time, I wondered if I would have a chance to meet him this time. On the way from the airport to Dingnan, I asked Director Miao at the pick-up station, "Is there Li in Dingnan in the school, or is there one in the Education Bureau?" The other party told me: "He is our director." I was surprised at that time: it turned out that this "codeword craftsman" was the person in charge of Dingnan Education.
The day before yesterday, the official account of "New Education Watcher" WeChat sent Director Li's "New Education, Education with Culture and Temperature-Education Experiment, We Start Like This". It is said that Mr. Zhu Yongxin was very happy after learning about it and pushed it on headlines, Tencent and other media platforms. In recent years, I have met top directors who are obsessed with new education, such as Bayannaoer Yang Xiangming, Liaoning Fakuji, Cong Lun and Luoyang Sun Jiantong. They are often deeply moved by the educational feelings that pervade them. But this is really the first time that Secretary Li can write his own article to explain the new education so clearly and profoundly. I was shocked by him.
It is said that soldiers will have a bear and a nest; Follow the right people and go the right way. The preference of regional directors will greatly affect the value orientation of a regional education development. It is understood that Mr. Li has been a teacher for two years, deputy director of the Propaganda Department, director of the National Development and Reform Commission and director of the county party committee office, and has now returned to the education sector. What is commendable is that the experience of many departments and posts did not kill his passion for pursuing ideal education. No wonder he repeatedly said: we are late for the new education. What will be the future of Dingnan Education headed by Li? It goes without saying.
In the process of walking, we can feel the pain of education officials everywhere: there are endless meetings, endless things, endless people and endless hearts every day, and it is difficult to sit down and do what you want, read what you want and say what you want. However, director Li provided another possibility with his own practice. He can still spare some time to do what he really wants to do, such as his "code word" work because he is busy.
Of course, it would be great if the leaders at the government level in a region can loosen and decompress education and create a good external ecological environment for the benign development of education. Director Li is lucky at this point. It is said that at this year's college entrance examination quality analysis meeting, the main leaders of the county party Committee clearly put forward that new education should be the main starting point for the high-quality development of Dingnan education. Wei Xin, the deputy magistrate in charge of the county government, not only attended the reception of the New Education Research Institute and its party, but also sat at the launching ceremony and the general training site for a long time, taking notes from time to time. At lunch, Wei County Governor was even more excited to express that he was more confident to regard new education as a new platform for the development of education in Dingnan.
In recent years, I have participated in the launching ceremony of many experimental areas. To tell the truth, it's not easy for a county-level leader to show his face at the ceremony, but it's never happened before that he sat down and listened to a half-day training lecture like Wei County in Dingnan. It can be seen that the new educational experiment in Dingnan has both bottom-up motivation and top-down thrust.
I don't know what path and strength Dingnan's new education experiment will take after the launching ceremony, but in a short encounter, I strongly felt the piety of the core team led by "Code Craftsman Li" to the new education.
Dingnan new education, the future can be expected.
