This wave of mathematics has even affected the adult world and kindergartens, making Yu Yifeng have a strong interest in it.
With nothing to do, he quietly rushed to New Humanity's largest "Hope Kindergarten" to conduct a surprise inspection.
The inheritance from generation to generation is crucial to civilization, and education has always been his greatest concern.
Culture, atmosphere, tradition and intellectual growth need to start from the infant stage!
Parents of new humans must receive serious parenting training, various prenatal education, and nutritional supplements from the beginning of pregnancy. Every parent must know what to do in the future and how to raise their children, so that their offspring will be smarter and more capable.
Be sensible and wait...
There is no doubt that children's intelligence is genetically influenced.
Humans cannot change genetic factors, but environmental factors such as the influence of books, good educational experience, and smart companions also have a profound impact, and these can be controlled artificially.
Scientists believe that genetic factors account for only 50%-70% of intelligence, and the rest are environmental factors.
Such a large room for improvement must of course be utilized rationally.
The biggest feature of the new humanity at present is the high-quality population. This feature cannot be lost when the population is so small.
In order to cultivate better acquired intelligence, education experts have gradually figured out almost the optimal training plan over hundreds of years.
Among them, individual differences and small-class education are essential.
A kindergarten teacher was leading the children to play games happily. When he saw Yu Yifeng, he quickly said hello in surprise.
Immediately afterwards, a large group of children who were playing ran over, their round bodies twisting and shouting, and they were extremely excited to see Yu Yifeng.
Judging from their stature, they are generally only a little over two years old, and they ask for a hug from "Captain Yu" who often appears on TV.
"hug!"
"hug!"
A dozen children, only knee-high, were jumping happily.
Unable to refuse, Yu Yifeng had no choice but to hug him one by one, a little girl on the left and a young lady on the right.
"Quick, kiss Grandpa Captain!" The teacher was encouraging with a smile.
"...He is already a grandfather." Yu Yifeng muttered in his heart, feeling embarrassed.
In today's society, children are not afraid of strangers, nor are they in the habit of being wary of strangers.
Of course it is normal for them to like Yu Yifeng, because they can often see him on TV and in newspapers, and his face is very familiar.
This is not to say that these children have been snobbishly worshiping power since childhood, but subconsciously... worshiping power. Especially boys, of course they like the highest-level leaders very much.
This kind of worship is a genetic requirement for survival in primitive times and is an innate instinct.
Knowing that sharks are the most ferocious animals in the ocean, some children fantasize about being sharks all day long, with sharp teeth, big mouths, fast swimming, and predators...
After hearing the mythical story about Sun Wukong causing havoc in the Heavenly Palace, they hoped to have Sun Wukong's abilities, including seventy-two transformations, a somersault of eight thousand miles, and a wish-fulfilling golden cudgel weighing thirteen thousand kilograms...
Everyone has had such a fantasy when they were young, which is an instinctive manifestation of worshiping power.
"The most primitive wisdom is equivalent to this..."
"To develop acquired intelligence, we should also start from these aspects. We need to guide these admiration emotions correctly so that we will not be bored with learning." The principal of the kindergarten came over. He is an early childhood education expert and received him warmly.
Yu Yifeng introduced a complete set of education plans.
According to the survey, two-year-old boys have begun to instinctively worship power. They like guns, airplanes, and things that look cool and powerful.
They tend to prefer huge, dirty excavators and trucks, and turn a blind eye to beautiful, expensive cars. Because excavators look more powerful, this is their nature...
And the little girl began to love beauty.
Modern teachers attach great importance to children's need to develop their inner instincts and provide sufficient space and conditions for them to express their nature.
"The development of intelligence is guided by this instinct."
When children play with toys, they often think about disassembling them, which actually represents human curiosity and desire to explore.
"Preventing them from destroying will actually interfere with intellectual development to a certain extent..."
"...Through our reasonable guidance, the worship of power can be mixed with curiosity and exploration. Children will gradually know that the greatest power in the world is knowledge."
"They will know that whether it is an excavator or a spaceship, they are all created by knowledge."
"So, they began to worship smart people and scientists again...and this phenomenon is very beneficial to our education." The principal introduced the past: "Our cultural atmosphere has always respected wisdom.
…”
Yu Yifeng kept nodding his head, thinking deep in his heart.
Basically everyone has this stage of worshiping scientists and the like. What the director said is not wrong.
However, most people in the past did not continue this mentality.
The kindergarten stage is mainly for cultivating the world view and values. There is no academic work. They often listen to stories and play various games, and the day passes.
There are teachers who will tell them what is good and bad, and distinguish basic rights and wrongs, but no one tells them what they should do in the future.
Experts will observe and evaluate based on their usual behavioral habits for subsequent classification education.
"You see, this child is particularly obsessed with all kinds of polyhedral toys... He may be engaged in modeling work."
"This child likes to build blocks and create..."
Affected by the wave of mathematics, the number of children who like various geometric models has also increased. Children now feel that "mathematics" is very powerful and "powerful".
They were using various shapes of molds to fill the sand. Some of them were smart and gradually discovered that a cylinder of sand could just fit three cones of the same width and height. They felt very magical.
At this time, a little boy with a round body ran over not far away. He was very lively and free-spirited. Yu Yifeng stopped him and asked: "Kid, what do you want to do in the future?"
"When you grow up...what do you want to be?"
The fat little boy bit his finger and said loudly: "I want to be a chef so I can cook delicious food for myself!"
Everyone present laughed, but it was not ridicule, but encouragement.
There are still very few children who can figure out their dreams at such a young age. Most people just have some vague preferences.
In fact, childhood dreams are often very simple, but they are often influenced by the people around them and are unconsciously replaced by other people's dreams. Because of practical factors, people are not free and will force themselves to do things they don't like and can make money.
And here, you can follow your dreams from beginning to end, all the way to the end. The most important thing is that you have to know what you should do and what you like to do.
It is this overall atmosphere and the education method guided by instinct that have cultivated generations of talents for the new human civilization.
Practice has proven that it is better than traditional education methods, but of course it also requires more manpower and educational resources.
Unfortunately, the talents cultivated in this atmosphere also have shortcomings. They are very powerful in academics, but their thoughts are naive.
"But it doesn't matter. Isn't there still an indigenous planet where I can experience it? As long as the world view and values are mature enough, it's not easy to lead bad people."
After some experience, things like the mind can gradually mature.
When he walked out of the kindergarten gate, Yu Yifeng was very happy and said goodbye to the children one by one.
As he walked, his brows slowly wrinkled again.
People without thought, he must worry about.
Human beings are gradually developing their own intelligence to the limit, which is a good thing, but it is also... not a good thing. Reaching the limit is not a good thing.
What he was worried about was...the issue of intellectual barriers.
The average intelligence of the new human civilization has exceeded 130. In previous societies, almost everyone was a genius. This result is enough to make all educationists proud.
But due to innate reasons, this level of intelligence is far from enough... to cross this barrier.
Ordinary scientists, in particular, have long been close to their own limits. According to a large number of samples from the Earth period, the limit of human intelligence is only about 200. No matter how high it is, it fluctuates up and down this number, and it is impossible to reach 700 or 800.
"But, how much intelligence is required for this intellectual barrier?"
No one knows that with the current technology, it is still a long way off to improve one's intelligence. Human beings can only analyze from the surface parameters of certain brains, which people are smart and who are stupid, but the deeper reasons are still unknown.
Far from understanding.
"In this period of time, the scientific contributions made by a small number of superhumans have been far greater than that of ordinary people. Even if these ordinary people are geniuses... they have gradually failed to keep up." Faced with this fact, Yu Yifeng let out a long sigh.
But, how to solve this intellectual barrier?
He knows it, but it's hard to do it.
There has been a trend in society as a whole to regard "wisdom" as beauty, which is very good, but the intensity of fertility screening is far from enough.
Basically, everyone still has the right to reproduce. Even if some mediocre people will be slowly eliminated, they will only be a minority. It is too slow.
According to scientists' estimates, it is estimated that it will take millions or even tens of millions of years for humans to naturally evolve into... a more intelligent species.
"It's been too long! If science and technology stagnates, the trend of beauty as wisdom will slowly disappear, and this natural selection will also be slowly lost. Our entire civilization has long since fallen." Yu Yifeng clenched his fist tightly.
.
However, compulsory artificial reproductive screening is currently impossible to implement, otherwise there will be chaos!
Think about it, the intelligence of most people is actually mediocre, including soldiers and grassroots people. If they suddenly lose the right to have offspring, what will they do? Will society be in chaos?
of course!
Yu Yifeng and his think tank have thought about it for a long time, but still haven't come up with a particularly good way to guide children into "public care" models...
"Do we still have to rely on... Perfect Su? But..." he thought unwillingly.
At this moment, Yu Yifeng suddenly received an emergency message. He took out the communicator and looked at it, and his heart suddenly jumped: Something happened to "Aviator 2"!
