What's the difference between traditional education in China and western education?

Education in China is completely different from that in the West. China is mostly a traditional "closed education", while the west is an "open education". China's education began with the establishment of private schools by Confucius. China's education has trained many scientists, politicians, militarists and economists, and made great contributions to China's science, politics, military and other fields. The traditional virtue of our country is to respect teachers and emphasize morality.

China's education pays attention to cultivating theory and thinking, but lacks creativity; The west pays more attention to creativity and independence. The depth and breadth of China students' knowledge of books are beyond the reach of the West, which pays attention to the learning needs of students' future growth and survival, and walks into life and nature. In the process of learning, Chinese traditional education has cut off the connection between students and life and survival. It is believed that in the process of learning, we should devote ourselves to learning, and others don't have to participate, which leads to many students' high scores and low energy, and they can't take care of themselves in life. Reading is for students. "There is a golden house in the book" and "There is Yan Ruyu in the book" have become the yearning and expectation of good students.

Western education pays attention to open education, breaks through the limitation of space, allows students to create and encourages them to enter life and nature. Dare to explore, practice and innovate, pay more attention to personal specialties and develop themselves. There is a story that reflects the difference between education in China and education in the United States: in art classes in China and foreign countries, teachers in China will draw an "apple" on the blackboard, so that students can look at the apple on the blackboard and draw an apple; The foreign teacher is carrying a basket of apples, and everyone gives one, and draws apples according to the apples he gets. This shows that western education is closer to real life, nature and society.

In the newspaper, an educational delegation from China visited Germany and compared the curriculum standards of mathematics, chemistry and physics. The conclusion is that China's textbooks are the most profound, comprehensive and detailed. However, educators in Germany are proud to say that we have trained many Nobel Prize winners with the courses that are not deep, complete and meticulous. Western education has some advantages and is worth learning from China. But our textbooks and profound ideological foundation are also worth learning from the west.

Confucius said "teach students in accordance with their aptitude". It is very important to educate students about their different hobbies. The same "barrel education" is also the same theory. A person's ability depends on his shortcomings. Improving the shortcomings will improve more content. Differential education is very important and necessary.
