CCTV Finance "Dialogue" invited a principal who "went out of the circle of fire", and when talking about the "good teenager" in his mind, he mentioned a key word: "elegant living". How exactly do children learn to live elegantly?
Tang Jiangpeng, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and principal of Xishan Senior High School in Jiangsu Province, proposed four effective methods.
1. Reduce the burden
Before elegance, life comes first. Principal Tang said: "In fact, the burden of students as a whole is relatively heavy, and even our most basic bottom line sleep - primary school students full 10 hours, junior high school students full 9 hours, high school students full 8 hours, have become a luxury." Our school students have always strictly guaranteed enough sleep every day, guaranteed 8 hours, fall asleep at 9:55 pm, and get up after getting up at 6:05 am. ”
2. Rich curriculum
As a basic carrier, the school curriculum is an important foundation for achieving educational goals, and President Tang made his "personality" choice: "We exchange first-class venue facilities for off-campus professional teams to provide us with curriculum support and coaching." We only have 11 physical education teachers, but we have foreign support, such as fencing courses taught by the coach of the German national team; there are five or six fencing teachers; sports swimming, there are four lifeguards alone. ”
3. Quality education concept
Why insist on emphasizing quality education instead of test-taking education? Principal Tang said: "Now teachers are around the college entrance examination, and they will teach which point they want to take. This kind of simple goal-driven learning is actually harmful, and once this goal does not exist, the subsequent sustained motivation is gone. We should let students get good language scores on the college entrance examination, which is what any language teacher must pay attention to, but the college entrance examination only tests the part of language literacy that can be applied to paper and pencil testing, and there is no way to test comprehensive literacy. More importantly, language learning, in my opinion, is first and foremost to cultivate a lifelong reader, so that he can also get a great spiritual nourishment in the process of rapid spiritual and physical growth. ”
4. Advice to parents
For the current family education, President Tang also put forward some practical suggestions: "A good score is only an instrumental goal that leads to the ultimate goal, and we cannot create subversion of the value order, nor can we create the opposition of the value order." For example, it is not right to focus on happiness without emphasizing scores. I would like to give a piece of advice to parents, even if you are very concerned about the score, you should present the diversity of topics, the richness of context and the expression of love and care in front of your children. ”
Elegance is an attitude, life is an experience that comes with it, and when children can finally carefully appreciate each ordinary daily life and recognize thousands of tastes, the school gives not only grades and knowledge, but the miraculous ability to capture happiness.
