Comparison of similarities and differences between Tao Xingzhi and Chen Heqin's preschool education thoughts

1. Both advocate the establishment of kindergarten education suitable for China's national conditions.

Tao Xingzhi pointed out in the Declaration on the Establishment of Rural Kindergartens that there are three chronic diseases in kindergartens in China at present: foreign diseases, spending money diseases and having money diseases. He pointed out that kindergartens in China should be reformed into China's, economical and civilian kindergartens.

Tao Xingzhi has also worked hard for this goal all his life. Chen Heqin believes that kindergartens in China were all from the United States at that time. To build kindergartens suitable for China's national conditions, it is a truly child-centered kindergarten in China.

Everyone advocates cultivating children's good habits.

Tao Xingzhi pointed out that to cultivate children's creativity, we must first establish good habits. Chen Heqin believes that kindergartens should pay attention to cultivating children's good behavior habits, because 89 of human behaviors 10 are habits.

3. Everyone opposes the view of "reading dead books, reading dead books" in traditional education.

Tao Xingzhi resolutely opposes the death of education, schools and books without "life-centered". Tao Xingzhi also called "traditional education" "cannibalism education". He advocated changing the teaching method of "waste paper basket, dead reading and dead teaching" in the old traditional education to the track of focusing on cultivating students' living ability.

Mr. Chen Heqin believes that the content of teaching materials in China's traditional education curriculum is unchangeable, which is far from real life and needs to be changed.

(2) Difference

1, Life Education by Tao Xingzhi and Life Education by Chen Heqin.

Tao Xingzhi believes: "Life education is the original, independent and necessary education of life. The fundamental meaning of education is to change life. Life is always like this, that is, life always contains the meaning of education. " "Life is education" is the core of Tao Xingzhi's life education theory.

Chen Heqin advocates the concept of life education, that is, "nature and society are living teaching materials"

2. On the teleology of education.

The life education advocated by Tao Xingzhi is "education for life", and the fundamental purpose of life education is the all-round development of people. Its core is to inspire children, teenagers and the masses to transform social life consciousness, combine hands and brains, and create a new life, a new China and a new world.

The idea of life education advocated by Chen Heqin holds that the purpose of life education is to be a man, a China person and a modern China person.

3. About educational methodology

"Integration of teaching and doing" is the teaching methodology of Tao Xingzhi's life education theory, and it is also the first time that he put forward the basic principles and school motto of life education.

Chen Heqin said: "There is a basic principle in the teaching method of life education, that is, learning by doing, learning by doing and making progress by doing." He advocated carrying out the idea of life education in the teaching process, and divided the teaching process into four steps: experimental observation, reading reference, publishing creation and critical discussion.

4. On Curriculum Theory

Tao Xingzhi advocates that life is education and society is school, so the whole social activities are the scope of education. Tao Xingzhi brought the whole society and life into the category of life education. This has something in common with the "quality education" advocated by our modern society.

Mr. Chen Heqin emphasized learning from living textbooks, and only by personally contacting nature can we truly understand book knowledge. I hope everyone will abandon the wrong idea of "books can do everything" in the past and discuss and study in a living and direct knowledge treasure house.

5. About the content composition of educational thought.

Tao Xingzhi and Chen Heqin's thoughts also have their own emphases. Simple normal education thought is an important part of Tao Xingzhi's theory of universal education and an important aspect of implementing the theory of "life education". Tao Xingzhi advocated the reform and establishment of naive normal schools, and put forward the method of "art friendship system" to train naive education teachers.

However, Chen Heqin mainly studied family education, and drew lessons from other people's experience in educating their children to write a book "Family Education", emphasizing the importance of family education.

Extended data:

1, the main contribution of Tao Xingzhi:

Mr. Tao Xingzhi devoted his life to education and made a pioneering contribution to the modernization of education in China. He not only established a complete educational theory system, but also carried out a lot of educational practice.

Looking at Tao Xingzhi's educational thought, innovation is like a golden thread, which runs through Tao Xingzhi's educational thought from beginning to end. Innovation here refers to getting rid of the "old" that does not meet the needs of the development of the times and creating the "new" that conforms to the social and historical progress. Innovation also has the significance of breaking idols, superstitions, dogmas and rigid habitual thinking.

The innovation of Tao Xingzhi's educational thought is also manifested in the training goal. He pointed out that the new education should cultivate all-round "talents" in view of the phenomenon that the old education aimed at cultivating "talents". As early as when he founded Nanjing Anhui University, he put forward three educational goals for this school: learning knowledge and having scientific spirit; To transform the environment, we must have aesthetic artistic conception; When dealing with emergencies, you should have noble moral cultivation.
