Chapter 262: Teacher Education

The arrogance of a scholar sounds very lofty, but Yu Wenwen believes that ideals are ideals, reality is reality, how many readers (literati) in the world can really have arrogance?

Scholars from wealthy families can have proud bones, and those who spend their days running around for firewood, rice, oil, and salt, what qualifications do they have to say that they are proud? How can you not bend over to reality?

Tao Yuanming can not bend his waist for five buckets of rice, resign and go to "pick chrysanthemums under the east fence and see Nanshan leisurely", this arrogance has been passed down through the ages, but Tao Yuanming can be so chic because his family is well-off and there is no shortage of these five buckets of rice.

Tao Yuanming's great-ancestor Tao Kan is a famous minister in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, an official to the Great Sima, a county prince of Changsha, a first-class figure in Jiangdong, and the Tao family is strong, so Tao Yuanming is not chic for five buckets of rice.

So for the children of the Han clan whose ancestors were unknown in the officialdom, how many of these scholars can be arrogant, and there are officials who do not do it but pick chrysanthemums under the east fence?

Everyone has been studying hard for more than ten years, isn't it just to be able to enter the profession with literature?

In order to be familiar in front of the magistrate, you have to lower your body to fight for a chance to show your face, if you stay at home all day long, you can only stay at home for the rest of your life.

If you can't get into the office, you have to find a way to earn money by learning to support your family, and those who are knowledgeable open a museum to accept apprentices, and those who are generally knowledgeable are hired as teachers.

At this time, you still tell me about arrogance?

Thinking so, Yu Wenwen said something else: "The king joins the army, scarcity is precious, and if everyone has arrogance, then it is not worth writing about, isn't it?" ”

Wang Fei didn't give an inch: "King, the famous scholars of scripture are already scarce and precious. ”

"Could it be that Wang joined the army because he misunderstood what the widow said?"

"The subordinates are not talented, and please ask the king to make it clear."

"The so-called education, that is, teaching and educating people, a person of insight who is full of wealth may not be a good teacher, what do people say, what does Wang think of joining the army?"

"The king's words are very true." Wang Hao seemed to hear the meaning of Yu Wenwen's words, but he didn't dare to be sure, because if the other party really had that kind of opinion, it would make people a little shocked.

"The few people said that teaching materials and teachers are resources that the Han people urgently need and are willing to spend money on, and teaching materials are all kinds of books, and teachers do not simply refer to people who are full of learning, but gentlemen who can really teach and educate people, or teachers and teachers."

"Take Mengxue as an example, young children are enlightened, it is simple to say simple, and it is complicated to say that it is complicated, because young children are underage and their minds are uneven, if the enlightened teacher will not teach, then it will be very difficult for young children to get started."

"Therefore, how to let Mengxue teachers learn to enlighten young children, this is also an educational issue, if you want to implement the industrialization of education, we must find a way to make these scholars who teach and educate people really become qualified teachers."

Yuwen Wen said slowly, and then quoted the classics: "Yang Xiong of the former Han Dynasty, his book "Fa Yan" said: The teacher is the model of the person, so how to make people become teachers is for teacher education. ”

This allusion was told to him by Zhang Hua, the president of the study club, and the last two sentences were played by himself.

"Teacher education?" Wang Fei repeated these four words, and he could determine what Yu Wenwen was going to say next, so his previous doubts and arguments might not be valid.

"That's right, the so-called killing chickens with a knife, if you let Er Liu go to Mengxue to enlighten, wouldn't it be overkill? And the content they teach is simple for themselves, but for young children, it is like listening to a book from heaven. ”

"When Wang joined the army in the past, how did he feel about teaching?"

"Uh, it's hard to put into words..."

Wang Jun remembered his own experience back then, he was nearly 20 years old before he studied hard, and it only took a few years to succeed in his studies, and he was appointed as a bachelor of Lumen by Yu Wenyong, the son of heaven at that time.

Zhou Guoguan School, in addition to Taixue, also has Lumen Learning, Humen Pavilion, and Passage View, which is a Taoist school, and Lumen School and Humen Pavilion are schools dedicated to reading for noble children.

Lumen, also known as the road gate, is the innermost door of the court, and the students of Lumen are the children of the crown prince and nobles, with Lumen Doctor and Lumen Bachelor, Wang Fei as Lumen Bachelor, of course, has taught students.

According to his teaching experience, it is really hard to teach in Lumenxue, a group of aristocratic children who fly eagles and lackeys on weekdays, most of them are absent-minded when they read in the school, and simple knowledge is taught over and over again, but they can't learn it.

These students have noble statuses, not to mention the crown prince and prince, the others are young but have titles, either duke or marquis, and there is also a duke, he is a bachelor without a title, and he has no confidence to speak.

The parents and grandparents of the students were either high-ranking officials or nobles in the court, so the well-educated people who were teachers were helpless against these students, and they were fine with their hearts, but those who did not care about them could not be beaten and scolded.

And Wang Fei, as a scholar who teaches well, no one taught him how to teach at the beginning, he didn't know the essentials of being a teacher, and he was stubborn when he was a student.

Wait a minute! I remember that there was a child of the clan, who was naughty in the hall and was punished for sorting out the books, but he was actually called a fifteenth house slave to impersonate to be punished.

Thinking of this, Wang Wei glanced at Yu Wenwen, Yu Wenwen felt a little inexplicable about this, he was an "abnormal human", and he didn't remember the "past" of the elephant very clearly before February of the second year, so it was not clear what the other party remembered about the past.

Seeing that Wang Jun was quite emotional about being a teacher and began to agree with his own point of view, Yu Wenwen decided to strike while the iron was hot, and the other party's glance made him feel furious, so he hurriedly continued:

"If you want to develop education, you must first have a good teacher, a good teacher is like a thousand miles, but you can't find it, to solve this problem, it is a matter of consideration for teacher education."

Yu Wenwen began to preach a concept to Wang Ting, which in the original history would probably not appear until modern times, which was "teacher education", and teacher education was to train teachers, just like industrial production.

Teaching people to fish and teaching people to fish are two concepts, knowing what it is and knowing why it is also two concepts, a good teacher should know how to efficiently guide students to learn knowledge, and also cultivate the learning ability of the other party, rather than blindly letting students memorize.

For the whole education, such a teacher is very important in the period of Mongolian schooling, that is, the so-called "enlightenment/enlightenment teacher", a good enlightenment teacher, can greatly mobilize the enthusiasm of young children to learn, stimulate young children's interest in learning.

Everyone has their own personality, and so is young children, who have different personalities, different talents, and different levels of intellectual development.

This kind of ability, most teachers do not have at the beginning, some people are good at reading and learning, but it is very lame to teach, it takes years of practice, summing up lessons and lessons, before growing into a good teacher.

Then most of them were hired by the Shi clan, and it was not the turn of the Han clan to get a piece of the pie.

Then, if you want to operate education as an industry, teachers are a very critical issue, not that with Erliu and other famous scholars, you really have a deep faculty.

Yu Wenwen said before that the market should be segmented, so the "goods" to be provided by the education industry - knowledge, need to be taught to customers through the "tool" of teachers.

Yu Wenwen believes that having a large number of qualified teachers is the key to the success of industrialization, just like archery archery, the bow is not good, the arrow is not straight, even if the archery is exquisite, it can not shoot the arrow target.

Sharpshooters need skilled craftsmen to make bows and arrows, and to provide qualified "products", and the same is true of education, which requires someone who can train qualified teachers to educate a large number of students.

Therefore, teacher education must be implemented, and Huangzhou Prefecture School has been preparing for this in the early years.

Students who go to the state school to study have different family backgrounds, and some students are shy in their pockets, so the state school has specially organized a "work-study program" so that these students can support themselves through work and use the income they get to cover the expenses during their studies.

Students are always scholars, and the state school arranges work-study programs, and this "work" is naturally screened out, and it will not make people feel bad about students, helping people write letters on behalf of others is one of them, and teaching in Mongolia is the other.

Not everyone is suitable for being a teacher from the beginning, facing a group of people in the classroom, even if they are just young children, many students who are teachers for the first time are so nervous that they can't say anything when they stand in the hall.

Then he was ridiculed by the naughty boys, and then the thin-skinned people ran out of the school in tears.

This kind of thing is normal, everything is difficult at the beginning, the state society has a special person to help students overcome psychological difficulties, and then gradually let go, and can teach young children normally.

Yuwenwen cites this example not to boast about how the work-study program in the state school has benefited students, but to illustrate one thing: the attempt at teacher education has been going on for several years.

Many students who study in Huangzhou Prefecture find that they have no chance to stand out after learning, which means that there is no chance of being recruited by local officials, so there is no hope for a career in office.

However, the work-study program organized by the state school and the volunteer teacher activities organized by the study club gave them another way to make a living.

After graduating from the training course, these students can be "employees" of the study club and teach them as teachers.

There are more and more Mongolian schools in various counties of Huangzhou, and with the enthusiastic donations of businessmen, Mongolian schools were free to study in the first few years.

With the free teaching of Mengxue as a training ground to exercise the teaching ability of these teachers, the study society regularly organizes meetings of these "employees" to discuss their teaching experience and improve each other's teaching level.

Although there will be no breakthrough in just a few years, such a model has accumulated valuable experience in teacher education for the study club, and this is the case for Mongolian schools, county (county) schools, and state schools.

In fact, the teacher education brewing by the study society is still in the initial stage, but because of the effective planning, it has quickly accumulated a lot of valuable experience, and a large number of students from state schools have been hired as teachers and taught in Mongolia after training, and a solid "employment chain" has been formed.

Many students from poor families, after making a choice, decided to take this road to support themselves, the study club for how to train Mongolian teachers, more and more experience, Yu Wenwen for the success of teacher education, full confidence.

In the same way, how to train teachers in county (county) schools and state schools is an inevitable problem, in order to efficiently train all kinds of teachers who meet the corresponding teaching requirements, there must be evaluation standards that meet the requirements, which requires a syllabus.

Going around and around to the syllabus, Wang Fei didn't feel much resistance at this time, he felt that it was insulting to let the reader emphasize the "selling price", and a scholar should not be like a butcher, selling knowledge as pork and pounding, and bargaining with others like a philistine.

But if it is a teacher who specializes in teaching that sells knowledge, it seems to make sense: if a carpenter supports his family by working on wood, then why not a teacher who earns money by teaching?

He gradually calmed down and remembered the planning of the teaching stage and time in the "Syllabus (Draft)": six years of Mongolian school, four years of county school (county school), and four years of state school.

According to such a stage and "class hours", the specific learning (knowledge) content is formulated, and then the teacher who is proficient in the corresponding learning (knowledge) content is taught, and it can be used in 14 years to cultivate students with the same level of knowledge as Xiucai.

The name of Xiucai originated from the former Han Dynasty, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty reformed the system of electing officials, so that the local government inspected and recommended talents, which was the inspection. During the Yuan Feng period, the secretary of state and the states each recommended a talent every year, which means an outstanding talent.

As long as you are not a person with dull qualifications, you can study carefully for 14 years, you can have the knowledge level of Xiucai, if the school club can really do this, Wang Fei feels that this business will become more and more prosperous.

Of course, fourteen years is too long for a gifted person.

Wang Xuan was a good ranger when he was young, but he didn't know how to read at the age of 20, and after being reprimanded by his brother, he suddenly woke up, studied hard, worked tirelessly day and night, and soon became familiar with the "Book of Filial Piety", "Analects", "Zuo Chuan", "Li", "Yi", "Poems", and "Books".

When he was twenty-two years old, he had already read the Five Classics, familiar with the scriptures, and the Confucian of the capital praised him, and was appointed by the then Son of Heaven Yu Wenyong as a bachelor of the open door.

Although he was a good ranger before the age of twenty, he was enlightened at the age of five or six, and it was not a problem to read and write, but his heart was not focused on literature.

He spent his days messing around with rangers, familiarizing himself with military books and thinking about galloping on the battlefield in the future, but after being blamed by his brother, he didn't want to bear the notoriety of "not learning and not knowing", so in order to prove himself, he had the performance later.

For ordinary people, as long as the qualifications are not bad and there is a good teacher to guide them, it is not difficult to spend 14 years of hard study since enlightenment, and it is not difficult to reach the level of Zhou Xiucai.

The question is, can such a good teacher really be cultivated through "teacher education"?

At this time, Wang Fei had completely forgotten the thing that "scholars have arrogance", because Yu Wenwen wanted to use teacher education to train readers who specialized in teaching, so his attention was completely focused on teacher education, and unconsciously, he accepted Yu Wenwen's "fallacy and heresy".

Yu Wenwen was not at all surprised by this result, because although his plan was a bit vulgar, it was an effective method, and the emergence of formal teacher education with the industrial revolution in history was one of the necessary conditions for the explosion of national education.

Seeing that Wang Gong had forgotten about the debate and had a deferential expression, Yu Wenwen did not become complacent, but began to further "brainwash" him: "As the so-called art industry has a specialization, the teachers of Mengxue, county (county) and state studies, of course, are different. ”

"Then there are three kinds of teachers trained by teacher education, which is product refinement."

"Your Majesty, you have to bring the school's ... Scope of business, to add a teacher education? ”

"That's right, the Normal School is something that President Zhang is planning, and at that time, the students who enter the Normal School will be free of tuition, and all board and lodging will be included!"

"This.... May I ask the king, how does the school club make a profit, and how does it run the education industry? ”

Wang Fei was a little puzzled, he pondered that from the training of teachers to the completion of six years of Mongolian education taught by this teacher, I am afraid that ten years will pass, so the industrialization of education may take more than ten or twenty years to see results, so how to profit from it in the short term?

Regarding this question, Yu Wenwen did not answer it directly, but asked rhetorically: "Could it be that Wang joined the army and did not run an industry?" ”

"The king, my subordinates are not good at the art of cargo breeding."

"I see, the widow has a lot of experience in this, since you want to make education an industry, of course the methods are similar, Wang is interested in joining the army?"

"My subordinates listen to the king's teachings."
