Bai Yansong thought for a while: "From your insights just now, I seem to see that you attach great importance to the role of education in the country and in the development of science and technology, but what do you think about the overburden of primary and secondary school students? In the past few years, we have
Many local governments have introduced burden-reducing measures, including limiting school hours."
"Ah, this..." Wang Ai placed his hands on his lower abdomen, looked into the distance and shook his head: "I, as I get older and know more, sometimes I feel quite emotional, especially us educators, especially
Being an education policy maker is really difficult. Ah, what I said may not be right, it’s just my idea.”
After finishing speaking, Wang Ai lowered his head and pondered. The CCTV director turned the camera to Wang Ai and waited silently for about ten seconds. In fact, Wang Ai thought about this issue for a full ten minutes that day before speaking.
Knowing how influential one is, one must not only tell the truth and be worthy of the audience that believes in him, but also speak accurately and explain education-related issues clearly. Therefore, it is almost a matter of carefully choosing every word.
"Let me talk about the college entrance examination first." Wang Ai pondered for a while before slowly saying: "What is the essence of the college entrance examination? It is the selection system for the country to allocate higher education resources. Your university campus can accommodate these people, and these teachers can
If you can teach these people at the same time, then how do these people come? The college entrance examination. The college entrance examination is definitely not the most ideal. The most ideal thing is to teach students in accordance with their aptitude. But how do you judge this talent? Who will judge? So the college entrance examination is still a matter of reality.
, the best system, because at least it doesn’t matter what your parents do, it will always be based on points.”
The two hosts are both college students. They understood it immediately and couldn't help but nod.
Wang Ai continued: "The college entrance examination also has another function, which is that the state uses the power to allocate educational resources to guide the direction of mass education. For example, now, we have just discussed the importance of scientific and technological development to the country. Let's look back at our college entrance examination?
They are all cultural courses. In the future, when our country's economy, science and technology, and national defense catch up, it means that it will catch up in terms of hard power. But if soft power, that is, cultural influence is not enough, more excellent cultural products will be needed.
Then some adjustments may be made, such as increasing the enrollment of some art students.”
Having said this, Wang Ai was a little thirsty. He picked up the tea cup in front of him and took a sip and continued: "Why are primary and secondary schools so burdened? One is that our parents are not stupid. We know that it would be irresponsible to let our children go to school to herd sheep. The other is
Enrollment rate. I just said that the educational resources in the hands of the state are limited. To whom should they be allocated? The college entrance examination is required. Then the educational funds in the hands of the state are also limited, and the number of teachers who graduate each year is also limited. Which school should they be allocated to? They also need to be assessed.
, what is the test? The admission rate."
Bai Yansong laughed when he heard this: "You mean, schools also have to take the college entrance examination?"
"Isn't that right?" Wang Ai smiled and spread his hands: "Can't everything be entrusted to teachers' morality and sense of responsibility? We still have to use systems to restrict and guide us? If you don't have a rate of enrollment, what will you do? Primary and secondary school teachers
, teach well and teach bad things, teach more and teach less things, is that the end of the world? But as for the enrollment rate, it will inevitably lead to overburden, just like individual students compressing their rest time for the college entrance examination. Schools in order to increase the enrollment rate
, it will compress art classes, music classes, and physical education classes, and the motivation and model will be the same."
"According to what you said, the enrollment rate cannot be changed?" Duan Xuan interjected and asked.
"It can be adjusted." Wang Ai nodded: "Just like the adjustment of the college entrance examination I just mentioned, when the demand for soft skills is strong, the admission rate of art students will be adjusted. If the burden on primary and secondary schools is too heavy, then the admission rate can be appropriately adjusted.
Assess the proportion of school work. However, it can only be adjusted, not destroyed."
"Then do you think it is a good idea to limit the time after school for primary and secondary schools? What do you think about the difficulty in picking up their children from school that some parents have reported?"
Wang Ai thought for a while: "How else can I say that education policy is difficult? No decision will only have good sides. If you don't let school get out early, it will be turned into cultural classes for you, which will make the child's physical and mental burden more and more difficult.
The bigger. If you stipulate that school ends early, and then stipulate that teachers in primary and secondary schools are not allowed to open supplementary classes, the impulse generated by primary and secondary schools based on the enrollment rate will be suppressed. As for what children will do after school, I think most children
, no matter how nice you say it, you must have played it."
"Anyway, if it were me, I would definitely go play." Duan Xuan interjected.
"Hey, don't underestimate this game." Wang Ai laughed for a while and said: "What do you think you can play? Listen to music? Play games? Read novels? Play football? What do you think these are? In fact, they are just being beaten in school
Compressed aesthetic education and physical education. Some of our parents will also take their children to various training classes, such as piano classes, calligraphy classes, Chinese studies classes, etc. Is this actually aesthetic education and moral education? Some children go home sensible.
Doing housework, what is this? Labor education."
Speaking of this, Wang Ai stretched out five fingers: "Morality, intelligence, physical fitness, beauty and labor!"
Duan Xuan exclaimed: "Where do you want to stay?"
Wang Ai nodded: "The objective effect is like this. Now that most of our talents have been marketized, parents are anxious and promote an increase in the proportion of intellectual education, but the other ones are also very important. So what should we do? Just compress the time in school and let the children be conscious
Go get other education.”
"Then why can't schools be forced to form various clubs? For example, primary and secondary schools in Japan have many extracurricular clubs, such as Go clubs, football clubs, etc." Bai Yansong asked.
Wang Ai thought for a few seconds and shook his head decisively: "It can't be done. Not all developed countries can learn from us. If you don't have the opportunity, you will only fall behind if you learn early. Let me put it this way, Japan is a developed country, which means
Japanese people don’t look up. But what about us? We are a developing country. We look up to Japan, the United States, and Europe. This determines that in China, both the society as a whole and the parents of students are very motivated.
Strong. If you want to do this in China, I guarantee you that when the leaders come to check, they will all be Go games. When the leaders leave, they will be replaced by books."
"What if we use a system to guarantee it? For example, give rewards? Hold competitions?"
"That means football comes to campus?" Wang Ai said coldly: "Back to what we originally discussed, there are very few people employed in the cultural and sports industry. If you try to guide parents to take this path, the elimination rate will be extremely high in the end.
Students, if you trick your parents, no one will listen to you in the future, and you will be back to square one."
