On the fundamental difference between modern education and traditional education.

A: Paying attention to the cultivation of innovative ability is the fundamental difference between modern education and traditional education. Traditional education takes mastering knowledge itself as its teaching purpose, the stability and oneness of teaching content as its basic starting point, and knowledge memory and replication as its basic learning goal. It emphasizes the quantity and accuracy of knowledge, the authority of teachers and books, and ignores that students are people with subjective initiative and the main body of self-education and development. Therefore, traditional education tends to be mechanized. In this teaching process, students' learning enthusiasm and initiative are limited, and the cultivation of innovative ability cannot be realized. In modern society, with the acceleration of knowledge creation and renewal, knowledge learning has become a means to understand the nature of science, train thinking ability and master learning methods. Therefore, the traditional form of education aimed at learning and accumulating knowledge can no longer meet the needs of cultivating new talents, and it is replaced by modern education. Modern education emphasizes the process of "discovering" knowledge, rather than simply obtaining results, and emphasizes the formation of creative problem-solving methods and inquiry spirit. In this teaching process, students' adaptability and innovation ability are cultivated and developed in the process of solving problems.
