[[Preface -- Why are we even talking about this? What's the probem, if there is any?]] 该说过的已经说过了，而且说过无数遍了。可惜没有人听。 [[Everything that needs to be said was said, unfortunately no one listened]] [[Part I — Essence, Purpose, & Principles]] [[Part II -- In Reality - How are we currently doing it, and why does it not work]] ### Essence & Purpose #### 1. Impartation of Knowledge [[人类的进步 = 学习 + 创新]] [[学习的目的是知识的传递以达到物种文明的进化]] [[学校的主要作用不再是帮助我们获得信息和知识]] #### 2. Cultivation of Learning Ability [[Learning is one of the most essential skills for the 21st Century]] [[学历的作用是用来证明我们有学习的能力]] [[Students are forced to learn but without being taught how to learn]] [[The purpose of school is to teach students how to learn]] [[The goal of education is de-schooling]] [[A good education seeks to find the right learning method for a particular brain]] #### 3. Liberation of Potential [[Liberation = enlightenment + empowerment]] Make knowledge effective [[知识和行动紧密相关]] learning model: information --> action ##### Enlightenment [[学校的作用在于帮助学生找到自己的热爱、激情和意义]] [[教育不是让孩子扮演他人，而是让孩子成为自己]] [[A good education makes students feel like they're there to create history]] [[Industrial model of education is standardization & reducing to tools]] [[The new education enables, empowers, and enlarges the possibility of students]] ##### Empowerment [[The Educaiton 4.0 Taxonomy]] [[Empowerment & action lie at the heart of education]] [[Global competency prepares students to adapt to this rapid changing world.]] [[Global learning gives education a meaning]] [[The world need global-competent individuals to tackle global issues]] ### Principles - Self-directed - [[No informed consent for receiving education]] - [[A strong why is crucial for passion in education]] - [[No class unless necessary -- why class timetable is a stupid design|No class unless necessary]] - Action-oriented - [[知识和行动紧密相关]] ## In Reality -- How are we currently doing it, and why does it not work ### Few people have a clear idea of why we are doing education is the first place. It's so self-justifying. [[Most students do not possess an understanding of the meaning of school]] No agency, passive acceptance, no clear vision or sense of purpose ### Education is not reaching its purpose #### Impartation of knowledge [[Our modern-day classrooms today still rely the most primitive form of information transmission -- Oral transmission]] [[Learning need not and must not be so inefficient]] [[教育落后世界信息技术的发展]] [[We fail to integrate technology into classrooms]] [[技术进步促进教育改革]] ##### Negative externality of testing 扭曲的价值体系 [[Education promotes homogeneous competition]] [[Those with disabilities and special needs tend to be screened out in education system]] Competition does not encourage innovation [[只有当一整个社会对人的评价方式发生变化之后教育才会回归起本质]] #### Liberation of Potential [[人文通识教育的危机在于与世界割裂|与社会割裂]] [[Education in schools often fails to answer the question of what next]] [[学校需要与社会和世界接轨]] [[学校需要开放化才能解放知识和生产力]] [[Schools need to take responsibility for their performance & effectiveness]] ## Proposed Solution -- Guidebook for Interest Parties [[Education is a complex activity related to multiple forces]] [[Education is a conspiracy between the state system, educational institutions, and parents]] ### School #### Responsibilities - Offer the education your students want - Don't waste the life of the enw geenration of humanity - Reconnect with & open up to society #### Not Your Responsibilitites [[It's not a school's duty to ensure its students succeed]] ### Students - Reconsider your education - [[Most students do not possess an understanding of the meaning of school]] - [[上学是手段，受教育是目的]] - [[考试是学习的手段，不是学习的目的]] - Reclaim Agency - It's your learning It's your lifle ### Teachers It's your responsiblity to engage your students and make them excited In your hands are the souls of the new generation ### Gov & Parents Don't boss over other people's education. Don't weaponize education (for your national agenda, for advancing social ladders, etc.)
