Briefly describe the historical lineage of educational thought in ancient China

Education, directly understood, is the mode of knowledge transmission. Before the Spring and Autumn period, this transmission was limited to the nobility or referred to a small, closed transmission among the ruling class. The emergence of Confucius put forward a new concept of education ----, that is to say, he believed that all people should be educated, so as to better inherit the "rites and music" and change social customs. However, until the Sui and Tang dynasties this form of education is still only a small-scale, similar to the oral teaching of this mode of semi-closed range of education. Until the Sui and Tang dynasties, with the birth of the imperial examination system and its institutionalization, the thousands of years of class barriers were finally broken, and knowledge became a way to change one's destiny, education became a complete and stepped model from the enlightenment of all people to the advanced education model for the rulers to find theories and support. Until the modern education to learn from the West, the coursework specialization and knowledge hierarchization of the education model.
