The Future Academy has been in operation for six years, and since three years ago, the first batch of young men who have received intensive training have been filled into various key departments of the Mawei Army. More than half of the staff of the Ministry of Intelligence are new graduates in the last two years. They are all good, shrewd and capable in the academy, and after being selected, they continue to receive intensive training from military instructors, and then fill in various places separately. The first requirement for these selected students is that they are innocent, and preferably those who have received the favor of the royal government, and loyalty is the most important thing.

However, in addition to the Mawei Army or the Ministry of Intelligence, many institutions under the royal government need a large number of talents. All military workshops and ordinary commercial workshops need educated young people to join. This literate refers not to those who are proficient in the Four Books and the Five Classics. Fortunately, learning the Four Books and Five Classics in this future school is only one of them, and children learn to read and write in the school from the age of seven, and then learn arithmetic, which is not much different from the primary school students of later generations, except that there is less art and music. In this day and age, art classes may be better, but if you set up a special course for music and dance, you will definitely suffer from the whole society. Music and dance, is something that the drama learns, or the Qinglou girl learns, belongs to the lower ninth rate, if this course is really opened in the school, maybe the parents of those children will immediately take their children home!

Seven-year-olds will need to study in the future school for five years before they will be exposed to more Western studies. Geng Jingzhong couldn't get the literary stuff. However, in the later junior high school stage, mathematics, physics, chemistry and other contents can be said to be handy. Although some of them have been cut, it is enough for these students to study for a long time. The children agreed to be required to leave the school at the age of sixteen, so they had already started some practical activities for more than a year before leaving, which Geng Jingzhong called an on-campus internship, so that the school could choose from among them to continue their training.

In order to prevent the children from not wanting to make progress, a series of reward and punishment systems have been formulated in the future school. Learn good. Every year, there will be scholarships, and those who study poorly will be punished, and those who make trouble will be expelled directly, and those who make mistakes will not be allowed to eat, etc. There are not many requirements for teachers in schools, and corporal punishment of students is not allowed. As long as a student makes a mistake, it is extremely normal to be spanked.

Geng Jingzhong also knew the shortcomings of cramming education in later schools, and the students who taught in that way basically had no ability at all, but fortunately, the Western teachers in this school were basically foreigners. They are not the teachers who teach Chinese, and they can't carry them on their shoulders. This is also the advantage of European education. In fact, originally China's Confucian education included the six arts of etiquette, music, archery, royalty, calligraphy, and mathematics, but since the imperial examination system began to prevail, only study articles remained.

The six arts of the gentleman, the art of etiquette includes five subjects: auspicious, fierce, military, guest, and Jiali, which are about the knowledge of social skills; There are six branches of music and art: Yunmen, Xianchi, Dashao, Daxia, Dahu, and Dawu, which are about the ability to reach feelings; Archery includes five subjects: white loss, participation, note, ruler, and well, which is about knowledge and ability; The five subjects of Yuyi refers to Ming and Luan, chasing water songs, dancing Jiaoqu, passing the monarch's table, and chasing birds and left, which are about the knowledge of the ability of the principal; Calligraphy is the six disciplines of pictographic, understanding, signifying, transferring, borrowing, and harmonic, and it is the study of the ability to write; The last mathematics is the most, there are Fangtian, Libu, Differential, Shaoguang, Shanggong, Even-Lose, Yingshu, Equation, Pythagorean Nine Subjects, which are about the study of arithmetic ability.

It is better to cultivate the "six arts" to improve social skills, emotional ability, knowledge ability, main work ability, writing ability, and arithmetic ability. In the past, it was normal for scholars to travel the world on horseback, with swords hanging from their waists. But if you look at the current readers, except for those who are full of mouths, they can't do anything, and it is very problematic to take care of themselves in life, and they are really useless scholars. Geng Jingzhong does not need such talents, and the all-round development of morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics, and labor advocated by later generations is the king.

Normally, the students who graduated from the Future Academy now are all slightly older before, and they entered the school at the age of twelve, so they have been studying for four years now. There is no problem with reading books and newspapers, and the arithmetic ability can be said to be not bad, and they have also learned a certain amount of scientific knowledge such as physics and chemistry, although it is less, but it is already very valuable. Even if the children who enter school at the age of seven graduate later, they will have learned the same knowledge as a junior high school student in the next generation, but they will be slightly more hands-on.

This alone is not enough, and they must also be made the main force in the construction of Fujian. What is most needed in Fujian now are skilled workers, including carpenters, masons, blacksmiths, shipbuilders, and more. Among them, the most needed are shipbuilders. However, shipbuilders involve the most knowledge, and ordinary craftsmen, due to their old age and original inertia, are relatively slow to accept new knowledge, and it is not easy to turn into shipbuilders. Such a problem has arisen in the shipyard now, the shipyard in the Western masters occupy most of the country, the designer Chinese share less than 20%, it can be seen that China's shipbuilding industry has really declined in recent years. What can be done to make China's shipbuilding industry rise again? It was thanks to these young people who had learned a new culture.

Geng Jingzhong also thought that in the next few decades, or even hundreds of years, a large number of shipbuilders and designers will be needed. Therefore, it is still necessary to take precautions, start from the roots, and train a large number of shipbuilders. Historically, it took the British Navy hundreds of years to become a maritime hegemon, which shows that the precipitation and accumulation of relevant talents is not easy. Geng Jingzhong's Mawei Navy can develop so quickly, all of which are stealing the fruits of the labor of European scientists.

Now, if we start to set up several vocational and technical schools in Fujian, and after learning the basic knowledge, we will enter these technical schools for training, and continue to learn all aspects of craftsman knowledge, it will be tantamount to cultivating skilled talents for China's future. Just do it, and then on the occasion of the New Year, the students are all at home during the winter vacation, and Geng Jingzhong invited Ah Hu and Yao Qisheng to discuss together.

"Lord Wang, I think it's very feasible! I know these little guys too well, many of them have gone to various workshops to do things after they left the school, and the workshop owners also welcomed them as students who graduated from the academy, saying that the students responded quickly and could quickly get started with anything. But after all, they have zero knowledge of basic skills, so I think it is necessary to train these students in skills. Our horsetail warriors have skill levels, and the craftsmen in the workshop also have skill levels. Then we can promote this system, and if you learn the technology, you will belong to the craftsman, and the higher the level of the craftsman, the higher the remuneration will be in the future. Ah Hu has also learned a lot of culture in the main school over the years, and at the same time, his experience over the years has also made him mature a lot. Speaking at this moment, there is no longer the previous submissiveness, and he seems very confident.

Geng Jingzhong listened to Ah Hu's words and nodded. Ah Hu's mention yì is very good, like the level of this craftsman, it is like the level of technician and engineer in later generations, which can be used throughout the country. In the future, you can learn from future generations and issue skill certificates to these craftsmen, and one level corresponds to this salary, so as to stimulate their spirit of study. It's not enough for a craftsman to know what to do, not only to know why you have to do it, but also to explain why. This is not simple, for the craftsmen of this era, among the hundred craftsmen, there may not be one person who can explain it clearly. For example, the new shipyard on Pingtan Island, there are so many craftsmen, and tens of thousands of people are working every day. However, how many people understand the principles of shipbuilding?

If you want to become a master and stand out among so many craftsmen, ambitious craftsmen will inevitably work hard to learn more scientific and technological and cultural knowledge. At that time, the word craftsman can be used sparingly, but can be changed to a mechanic, a worker with excellent skills. Then when they are working on their skills, the theoretical knowledge of mathematics, physics, chemistry, etc., which they have learned, will be useful. If the technical school continues to develop, the knowledge of mathematics, physics, chemistry and other knowledge will be slowly driven by them to penetrate into the minds of all craftsmen.

Yao Qisheng has been very busy recently, although he was called here at this moment, he thought it was a big deal, but he didn't expect it to be a trivial matter. He didn't think there was a rush in this matter, and he could do it slowly. However, even if a technical school is opened, it is estimated that he will not be in charge, so it is very easy to think about the problem as a bystander, and he quickly replied: "Lord Wang, the students of this future school are from poor families, and it is not too much of a problem for them to continue to go to the technical school to learn skills." However, people always have the intention of getting ahead, and they still hope to take a show or something in their hearts. If they want to be willing to study their skills, they must improve the status of craftsmen! ”

Yao Qisheng's sentence is to say the point, the craftsmen of this era, the former Ming belonged to the craftsman, but belonged to the untouchables, originally these poor people learned a craft is just to support their families, but they don't want to make a living from this for the rest of their lives, now that they have studied, they can have the opportunity to continue to study and take a show or something, it is still very tempting for them.
