The method of family education in ancient times, there was no family education in ancient times

The disadvantages are:

1. In ancient times, there was a lack of objective needs for pre-establishment social education.

2. In ancient times, there was a lack of concept and awareness of pre-school social education.

3. In ancient times, there was a lack of basic teacher conditions for pre-school social education.

4. In ancient times, there was a lack of scientific knowledge base for pre-school social education.

The advantages are:

1. It is relatively stable, and there is not much change in the content and method of education.

2. The boundaries between school education and preschool education are not clear.

3. Parents are the implementers of family education, especially mothers.

Family education: the main form of preschool education in ancient times.

The testable record of education in ancient China lies in the Yin Shang period. In prehistoric primitive societies, there was no such thing in the modern sense due to the lack of specialized educational activities"Preschool education"。

There are more matrilineal clans in primitive societies during the period"Public education"Young children are cared for and educated by the elders of the clan commune. Its educational content mainly revolves around the labor experience and primitive survival skills of primitive society. With the patrilineal clan replacing the matrilineal clan, the emergence of private ownership, and the emergence of fixed spouses, it gradually emerged in the education of preschool children"Homeschooling"。

Under the hierarchical system of ancient Chinese feudal society and the gap between the rich and the poor, families of different classes had different family education for preschool children. The characteristics of the small-scale peasant economy in ancient China determined that family members were more dependent on each other at the material level.

In family pre-school education, young children from ordinary families will be cared for by their elders during the family trial, and will be familiar with basic life knowledge and social knowledge. On the other hand, young children from families with better social status are taught etiquette and knowledge in addition to basic life knowledge and social knowledge, and even have a special preschool education mechanism.

The concept and practice of family education did exist in ancient societies. In ancient societies, the family was the most basic unit of education, and parents were responsible for educating their children in moral, cultural and life skills. In ancient times, family education was regarded as a very important part of the process, as it helped to pass on values and cultivate children's moral character and positive behaviour.

In ancient times, family education focused on the exemplary role of parents and teaching by word and deed. Parents inculcate in their children the knowledge and values of morality, etiquette, filial piety, etc., through their own speech and behavior, exemplary behavior, and teaching in daily life. In addition, parents will personally teach their children basic cultural knowledge, such as reading, writing, arithmetic, etc.

Ancient family education also included the teaching of apprentices by masters. In some trades or trades, parents or elders teach their descendants personally, passing on skills and experience from one generation to the next. This traditional way of family education is also very important, emphasizing both the transfer of knowledge and the friendship and mutual respect between teachers and apprentices.

In general, family education in ancient times played a very important role in shaping children's moral character, moral concepts and skill inheritance. It is one of the cornerstones of cultivating the next generation of talents and passing on culture in ancient societies.

First, if there is spare energy, then learn the text.

This is what Confucius said in the Analects. The word "line" here refers to moral behavior, and the word "wen" refers to cultural knowledge. He stressed the need to put ideological and moral education in the first place in cultural and knowledge education.

In addition to Confucius, many ancient thinkers emphasized this point. Han Yu said: "Teacher, so preach and teach to solve doubts."

That is to say, the duty of an educator is first to "preach" (ideological and moral education), and then to "teach" (to impart professional knowledge) and "to solve doubts" (to solve difficult problems). Wang Fuzhi put forward the three steps of "studiousness", "practice" and "shame", and especially emphasized that "shame" is the driving force for doing a good job of "studiousness" and "practice". All this is saying that ideological and moral education should be put in the first place in other educations.

2. Faithfulness and faithfulness at the same time.

Ancient educators did not advocate ideological and moral education in isolation. They advocate that ideological and moral education should be carried out simultaneously with cultural and knowledge education. In the Analects, Confucius proposed that "the Son is taught in four ways:

Literature, Conduct, Loyalty, and Faithfulness", and in the implementation of teaching, it is divided into four subjects: "Virtue, Language, Political Affairs, and Literature", and the cultivation of ideology and morality is taught throughout various disciplines, emphasizing "standing in etiquette and becoming happy." He also wrote: "Three hundred poems, in a word, said: ."

Thinking innocently'. The so-called "thinking without evil" refers to ideological probation. In other words, he believes that each of the 300 poems contains pure moral education.

Xunzi specially wrote "Music Theory", believing that Lile can "manage people's hearts", "can be good to the people", and "change customs". It is a fine tradition of thinkers of all ages to educate future generations with historical records that are faithful to the facts and the noble conduct of famous people of all ages. The "Historical Records" written by Sima Qian in the Western Han Dynasty, the "Shi Tong" written by Liu Zhiji in the Tang Dynasty, and the "Zizhi Tongjian" compiled by Sima Guang in the Song Dynasty are all used to educate and enlighten people with historical facts, and play a reference role in "not forgetting the past and being a teacher for future generations".

3. Where there is a will, there is a way.

The ancient thinkers said that "those who have aspirations can achieve things," "those who have aspirations are determined in their hearts," and "the three armies can win the commandery, but the horsemen cannot win the ambitions," and so on, all have the meaning of "willingness," "ambition," "ideal," and hard work. Ideological and moral education is to encourage people to make up their minds to do things that conform to moral norms, to be noble people, to uphold ideals, to have firm convictions, and to be full of confidence. No matter what you do, you must be diligent and courageous, strong-willed, and persevering.

Confucius said, "When you see the virtuous, you think together, and when you see the unvirtuous, you introspect yourself", which is to encourage people to aspire. Mencius emphasized "Zhizhi" and "Shangzhi". He said:

Fu Zhi, the handsome of the air". He also proposed to cultivate a kind of "heroic spirit" and asked people to work hard. This is what we want to advocate today.

Family education in ancient China played an important role in social education. It mainly undertakes the following tasks:

Teach basic family life skills and moral values: Family education is an important part of ancient Chinese traditional culture, and parents will teach their children basic life skills and moral concepts such as how to handle household chores, how to respect elders, and how to get along with others.

Inheritance of family culture and family mottos: Family education also includes the inheritance of family culture and family mottos. Parents will pass on the history, traditions and values of the family to their children to help them understand their own family culture and identity, and to pass on the family's spirit and cultural heritage.

Shaping children's character and morality: Family education is an important way to cultivate children's character and morality. Through education and guidance, parents will shape their children's character and morality, so that they can become moral, responsible, caring, and polite.

Helping children grow and develop: Family education is also an important means of helping children grow and develop. Parents will give their children the right education and guidance based on their personality and interests to help them reach their full potential.

In short, family education in ancient China played an important role in the process of cultivating the next generation, which was not only a process of knowledge transfer, but also a process of moral education and character building.
