"Today we will discuss the education plan together." On March 6, General Secretary Xi Jinping visited the members of the Democratic League, Democratic Progressive Party and Education who attended the CPPCC meeting and attended the joint group meeting, and had an in-depth exchange with everyone on this topic.
When face-to-face exchanges with the General Secretary, Mr. Xu Kun, President of Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications, focused on the thinking on "intelligent technology empowers high-quality development of education."
What is education in the digital wave? General Secretary Xi Jinping saw the truth and made a profound idea: "Now, on the one hand, with intelligent networking and artificial intelligence, the tools and methods of education will change, and the cultivation of students' abilities will change, which requires reform in line with the times. On the other hand, students' enlightenment, spiritual cultivation, basic cognitive ability, and problem-solving ability cannot be relaxed. Basic skills must be obtained."
A few words are full of wisdom of "new according to the situation" and have the determination to "not throw away the most basic ones."
Education develops due to technology. From the word-of-mouth teaching of Xingtan, to the teaching of movable type printing, to the Internet breaking the boundaries of time and space of education, the picture of the changes in the times is vast.
Observe the momentum and control the momentum. The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China wrote "digitalization of education" into the report of the Party Congress for the first time. The Third Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China proposed: "Promote the digitalization of education, empower the construction of a learning society, and strengthen lifelong education guarantee." At this National Two Sessions, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that "it is necessary to implement the national education digitalization strategy, build a learning society, and promote the emergence of talents of all types and levels."
The digitalization of education has become an important breakthrough for my country to open up a new track for education development and shape new advantages in education development.
For example, how to make "the fruits of education development benefit all people more and more equitably."
"China is unremittingly promoting the informatization of education and strives to expand the coverage of high-quality educational resources using informatization as a means." In May 2015, General Secretary Xi Jinping wrote a letter to congratulate the opening of the International Education Informatization Conference and emphasized that we will gradually narrow the regional and urban-rural digital gap through educational informatization, vigorously promote educational equity, and allow hundreds of millions of children to share high-quality education under the blue sky and change their destiny through knowledge.
Now, the world's largest educational and teaching resource library has been built, a series of standards and specifications for digital education have been released, and urban and rural children have the same class... The vision in the letter is gradually becoming a reality.
For example, how to use new technologies to promote lifelong learning for all.
At a symposium of experts in the field of education, culture, health and sports held in 2020, a representative said that the school has offered many online classes, and both elderly people in their seventies and young students are sitting in the same "classroom". General Secretary Xi Jinping responded: "The lifelong learning system must be well built, and a system with more flexible methods, richer resources and more convenient learning."
Also, innovatively run ideological and political courses.
"If you are a monk who hits the bell for a day, read the text and deal with errands, then the 'class rate' and 'head-up rate' will inevitably be greatly reduced." On March 18, 2019, General Secretary Xi Jinping gave a thorough discussion at the school's ideological and political theory teachers' symposium, and pointed out that "using modern information technology and other means to build smart classrooms" and so on, "worthy of recognition and encouragement."
With digital wings, the education industry has shown a huge atmosphere. In the changing times, "education cannot be abandoned."
Cultivate morality and cultivate people, cultivate the soul and build the soul. "Who to cultivate, how to cultivate, and for whom are the fundamental issues of education and the core topic of building a strong educational country."
"When I was in middle school, the political textbook I learned was called "Be the successor of the revolution". The book talks about "Love productive labor, work hard, and use your own hands to build a prosperous and strong socialist motherland", "Set up ambitions and be the successor of the revolution", etc., which have influenced the ideals, beliefs and life choices of our generation." Speaking of this topic, General Secretary Xi Jinping recalled emotionally at the symposium of teachers in school ideological and political theory courses held in 2019.
At this year's National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, General Secretary Xi Jinping firmly pointed out: "To build a strong country in education, a strong country in science and technology, and a strong country in talents, we must adhere to the correct direction of running schools and cultivate socialist builders and successors who are comprehensively developed in morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics and labor."
Education is a major plan for the country and the party. The "big" of education lies in its distinct strategic attributes, and in its focus on the fundamental starting point and end point of "people".
I heard that children have more time to study online, and I reminded me to protect my eyes and "adhere to the educational concept of health first and strengthen school sports work"; when talking about the problem of "fragmentation of reading", I required that "digital reading should be combined with traditional reading to maintain our core and literacy"...
Knowing and making changes clear and upholding the truth and innovating, I focus on "from a great education power to a strong education power is a systematic leap and qualitative change, and it must be driven by reform and innovation", and focusing on "Chinese modernization and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation are achieved by our next generation."
