Enlightenment of China Ancient Academy Teaching Management System to Today's Education ...

How to understand the value and significance of this learning method has increasingly become a topic of concern. In the process of study and discussion, I found that the articles on this subject often cite foreign examples and often discuss the traditional education in China as its opposite.

Is it true?/You don't say.

With this question, I reviewed the thoughts and development clues of ancient education in China. In my opinion, this is not the case. You see, as the originator of education in China, Confucius' educational thoughts and methods have the basic characteristics of research-based learning as we know it now. Let's take a look at the contention of a hundred schools of thought. In that era of fierce competition, if they adopt the late teaching method, I think they will not only fail to develop, but also have problems in survival.

Only after Dong Zhongshu "ousted a hundred schools of thought and respected Confucianism alone" and the imperial examination system in Ming and Qing dynasties became increasingly developed did the situation change. However, even in this case, it is not "monolithic". The academy system, which originated in the Tang Dynasty, flourished in the Song and Yuan Dynasties and spread in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, is an education and teaching system that is obviously different from "official learning".
