The core of moral education lies in "teaching", which is the communication between heart and heart, the feeling of moral norms in daily life and trivial matters, the indoctrination, the persuasion, the dribs and drabs, and the drip wears away the stone; The highest realm of moral education is "teaching without teaching", and inspirational assessment can't replace students' own understanding, experience, reflection and practice. Compulsory education with examination and evaluation as the main way is far from meeting the needs of moral education in the new period. School moral education should not be a cold accumulation of moral laws and regulations, but should attach importance to students' subjective initiative and emphasize students' self-internalization, self-restraint and self-discipline.
