According to media reports, recently, the Ministry of Education officially issued the compulsory education curriculum plan, separating labor from the previous comprehensive practical activity curriculum, and published the Compulsory Education Labor Curriculum Standard (2022 Edition) (hereinafter referred to as the "new standard"). This means that from the beginning of school this fall, primary and secondary school students will go from cooking and simple home appliance maintenance to experiencing woodworking, textile and vegetable planting. It can be said that there will be more new content in the classroom of primary and secondary school students.
After reading this news, friends will praise the decision of the Ministry of Education. As college students who have left school, we are familiar with labor classes. When we were at school, the labor class was not as formal as it is now. At that time, I was just talking, that is, cleaning in the class. Although the school did not require the implementation of labor classes at that time, under the guidance of my parents, I basically mastered the basic skills of cooking, cooking and repairing household appliances. By the time I graduated from high school, I could already cook a table of dishes. After I went to college, I quickly adapted to the collective life. In short, I can live independently.
In my opinion, according to the requirements of compulsory education curriculum, primary and secondary school students now master labor skills, learn to cook porridge, repair household appliances, grow vegetables and raise poultry. The purpose is not only to master labor skills, but more importantly, to let students participate in labor practice, understand the true meaning of labor and get in touch with real life by participating in the labor process, so as to cultivate correct labor values and good labor quality of primary and secondary school students.
Nowadays, not only students can't cook, grow vegetables and repair household appliances, but also many parents think that as long as their children get good grades, labor education doesn't need systematic study and experience, which leads to the phenomenon of score-only theory among many students, and many primary and secondary school students have poor hands-on ability and self-care ability. In my opinion, it is very necessary and feasible to put forward specific requirements and implementation measures for labor classes in the new standards for labor classes issued by the education department this time.
Starting from this autumn, the labor course will officially become an independent course in primary and secondary schools. Does it mean that children can be transformed into talents after attending labor classes? I don't think that's possible. In fact, the cultivation of students' labor skills, from the establishment of ideas, is a lifelong matter, which is very important for students to adapt to society in the future. Since schools are required to offer labor courses, schools and parents should put this course into practice, so that students can learn from their own work and children can learn from their own work. This is the significance of offering labor courses.
? ? In my opinion, it is very necessary to set up labor education courses at the moment when academic performance is emphasized, which is not only the needs of students and families, but also the needs of the times.
