When Lu Guansheng changed the topic, Zhu Quan immediately knew that it was what he was interested in and immediately responded.

"Learning and application? Is this the knowledge learned in school?" Zhu Quan asked.

"Not entirely." After Lu Guansheng sat down, he signaled the servants to bring tea and cakes before continuing to answer Zhu Quan's question. "Part of it was learned in school, and the other part was gained from experience while playing in Fuyuan."

"Oh? What kind of knowledge does it take to make a paper airplane?"

"Physics is the backbone. You have to know how to reduce air resistance. There's also materials science, how to choose the surface structure and weight of paper to help it fly. And of course, hands-on skills are also important. Otherwise, it's all just empty talk."

"Can these things be learned in Fuyuan? Does Fuyuan have classrooms?"

“Every situation is a classroom, and every experience, success and failure, is an accumulation of knowledge.”

“Is failure also a form of knowledge accumulation?”

Lawrence Lu smiled, “Didn’t Edison say that a long time ago?”

"Edison?" Zhu Quan was confused. "What did he say?"

"Someone asked him if his 6,000 failed attempts at developing a light bulb meant 6,000 attempts of effort were wasted. He replied: No! That taught me 6,000 ways to fail at making a light bulb."

"Six thousand times! Won't you get discouraged and want to give up?"

"Look, have they given up? Are they discouraged?" Lu Guansheng pointed out the window.

At this point, the losing group didn't show any signs of defeat. They were disappointed, but now they were gathered around Zhu Yuhang, summarizing the lessons learned from their failure!

The winning team also participated in the discussion, sharing their ideas and advantages in making paper airplanes.

"Education through entertainment isn't just about entertainment! Teaching is king! But students have to listen first before we can achieve results, right?"

"Mr. Lu's words make sense, but how did you get them to listen?"

"It's a psychological trick!" Lu Guansheng winked at Zhengquan. "Didn't you learn a lesson today?"

"oh?"

"Before today, did you think that education reform was necessary, but its success was hard to imagine?" Lu Guansheng suggested. "But now, do you think it might actually be worth giving it a try?"

"Mr. Lu can read minds?" This was indeed what Zhu Quan felt at the moment.

"This is the psychological equivalent of 'starting from me'!" Lu Guansheng said, "It's about a sense of participation!"

"Mr. Lu, can you be more specific?" Zhu Quan was not the best at psychology.

The so-called "starting from myself" is actually just one sentence: instead of listening to others' preaching, it is better to find the answer yourself.

People don't like being criticized, told they've done something wrong, or told what to do. That's rebellious!

No matter how right others are, the person being lectured will always have the urge to defend himself or herself, and will usually pay more attention to the other person's criticisms and fight for his or her own position.

So, instead of telling the other person what they did wrong, ask, "What did you think you failed to do? How will you improve next time? What strengths do you think we can learn from them?"

"These three questions are really brilliant!" Zhu Quan suddenly realized.

"Then Director Zhu, if I were to ask you these three questions about education methods, how would you answer?"

"Is that so? Regarding the shortcomings, I think test-taking might be too rigid in its knowledge, and it's all discarded after the test! To improve that, we need educational reform! As for the strengths we should learn from... that method of applying knowledge just now is a good example!"

"Look! Don't you already have the answer? Do you still need my help?"

"Mr. Lu, you're flattering me! If I hadn't come here today, I might not have figured out these principles until I retire!"

"Now that you've realized it today, you can go ahead and do it, right?"

"I understand the principle, but the actual operation is very difficult!" Zhu Quan sighed, looking a little discouraged.

"I just told you not to be discouraged. Why do you have this expression again? At least you know many methods that are not feasible, right?" Lu Guansheng said with a smile.

"Hahaha! Mr. Lu really has the Ah Q spirit!"

"How about this! Let's discuss and analyze the difficulties and bottlenecks you're currently facing. Using the ideas we just discussed, maybe you'll have the answer?"

"Good idea! Let's try it!" Zhu Quan's confidence and hope returned instantly.

The first issue is something that everyone cares about - the rate of admission to higher education.

No matter how the reform is carried out, the admission rate must be guaranteed, so the exams must still be taken!

"Have you ever thought about changing the test questions? Change the way the questions are asked, avoid rote memorization, and have more practical and application questions?" Lu Guansheng still used a rhetorical tone, just to let Zhu Quan think for himself.

Because you use your own brain, it becomes your own idea, which is more memorable and can be implemented forcefully.

"That makes sense! We can turn those fill-in-the-blank questions into essays. When grading, the answers only need to meet a few key points to get points, right?"

"Director Zhu is quite clever!" Lu Guansheng smiled. "As long as there are no key points, students will have to work hard to master them and apply them flexibly. This will also cultivate their divergent thinking, right?"

"That's right! Absolutely right!" Zhu Quan was filled with inspiration and enthusiasm. He said to his secretary, "Write it down! Write it all down!"

The second bottleneck is the teaching staff!

Today's teachers' educational thinking is still based on the general idea of ​​examination-based education. It will take time to change this!

Especially for Chinese teachers, how can we solve this problem? Difficult!

What’s more, not everyone supports education reform!
