What are the ancient Chinese educational ideas

There are three main types of ancient Chinese educational thought, namely:

1. Confucianism represented by Confucius: Confucius was the greatest educator and educational thinker in ancient China. The Confucian culture represented by him has had an extremely profound impact on the development of Chinese culture and education. His educational thoughts are concentrated in the Analects. Confucius began by exploring the nature of man.

Thinking that people's innate nature does not differ much, and that personality differences are mainly formed later in life ("nature is similar, and habits are far apart"), he focused on education later in life, advocating "teaching without discrimination". Confucius's doctrine of "benevolence" as the core and the highest moral standard, advocating "do not look, do not listen, do not speak, do not move", emphasizing loyalty and filial piety and love.

Confucius's "not angry, not open, not wanting, not sentimental" expresses the principle of enlightened teaching. "Learning without thinking is confusing, thinking without learning is perilous" emphasizes the combination of learning and action, and requires that learning be put into practice.

2. Mohist thought represented by Mo Zhai: Mo Zhai's teaching of "love and love" and "non-attack" emphasized the mastery of knowledge of literature and history and the cultivation of logical thinking ability, as well as the use of technology. As for the understanding of acquiring knowledge, the Mohists believe that there are three main ways: "to know for oneself", "to hear and know", and "to speak".

The first two are not sufficiently comprehensive and reliable, so it is necessary to emphasize the saying of knowledge, relying on the method of reasoning to pursue rational knowledge.

3, Taoist thought: Taoism advocates a return to nature, "revert" to the natural nature of man, let everything take its course, is the best education.
