Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing stood in the slightly dim school, the air filled with the smell of old books.
The mottled walls, worn tables and chairs, everything exudes the breath of the times.
On the blackboard, the "Rules for Disciples" were neatly copied with chalk.
The sound of children reading aloud came from outside the window, uniform but a little dull.
"This won't work!" Shen Qiqi broke the silence, a hint of worry in her tone.
Lu Qing followed her gaze and saw the children reciting with their heads shaking, but they didn't seem to understand what she was saying.
He took a deep breath, his eyes determined: "It must be changed!"
Their eyes met, and an invisible tacit understanding flowed in the air.
They decided to carry out a thorough reform of the village's education!
When the news came out, it was like a huge rock dropped into a calm lake.
Some old teachers immediately exploded, with the word "rejection" written all over their faces, as if Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing had said something unorthodox.
"This is how our ancestors taught us, why is it not working?" An old teacher blew his beard and glared, with a hint of anger in his tone.
"Yeah, who knows if this new teaching method works?" Another veteran teacher echoed, his tone full of doubt.
Shen Qiqi is well aware of the resistance to change, but she is not discouraged.
She patiently explained to the veteran teachers the advantages of the new teaching method, such as focusing on heuristic teaching to cultivate students' independent thinking ability; adding practical sessions to allow students to learn while playing and play while learning; and introducing more interesting teaching materials to stimulate students' interest in learning...
Lu Qing also chimed in. He knew very well that it would be difficult to change the mindsets of these old teachers in a short period of time, so he could only reason with them and appeal to their emotions.
"Teachers, the times are advancing, and education must keep pace with the times!" Lu Qing said sincerely, "We can't let our children lose at the starting line!"
The stalemate lasted for a long time. Finally, with the efforts of Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing, the old teachers reluctantly agreed to give it a try.
A new teaching method has begun, however...
Shen Qiqi looked at the scene in front of her, her brows furrowed, "What's going on?"
The children were like wild horses that had broken free from their reins, and classroom discipline was completely gone.
You taught me how to draw and I taught you how to play with mud. The classroom was as lively as a vegetable market.
What’s even more frustrating is that when the test results came out, they were so horrible!
The children who used to be able to recite a few sentences of "The Rules of Disciples" can now not even recognize all the Arabic numerals.
"This...this is too lame!" Shen Qiqi held her forehead, feeling her head buzzing.
They had vowed to reform before, but now, everything has gone wrong!
The oppressive atmosphere was like a huge net, wrapping Shen Qiqi tightly.
She felt like she was suffocating.
Is it true that new-style education is not suitable here?
Do we really have to go back to the old rote memorization model?
Lu Qing saw Shen Qiqi's anxiety. He patted her shoulder gently, his tone gentle but firm: "Qiqi, don't be discouraged. This is just the beginning. Everything is difficult at the beginning. Let's take it slowly."
Shen Qiqi raised her head and looked at Lu Qing's encouraging eyes, a warm feeling welling up in her heart.
She took a deep breath and told herself not to give up.
"You're right, this is just the beginning! I was a king back then, this little setback is nothing!" Shen Qiqi rekindled her fighting spirit, her eyes gleaming with confidence.
She began to reflect on her previous teaching methods and found that the problem was that they were out of touch with reality.
In the rural areas of the 1970s, what children needed more were practical skills rather than empty theories.
A bold idea emerged in her mind.
She decided to create her own set of teaching content that integrated practice and theory based on the actual situation of the village.
For example, teach children how to calculate the area of a field, how to identify crops, how to raise poultry, etc.
Just do it!
Shen Qiqi immediately devoted herself to compiling new teaching materials.
She combined modern educational concepts with the actual situation in rural areas and designed a series of vivid and interesting courses.
As soon as the new teaching content was launched, it was immediately welcomed by the children.
They absorb new knowledge like sponges, the classroom atmosphere is lively, and learning efficiency is greatly improved.
After the test results came out, Shen Qiqi was pleasantly surprised to find that the children's grades had improved significantly!
Children who originally failed the exam can now score 70 or 80 points.
"Qiqi, you are so great!" Lu Qing hugged Shen Qiqi excitedly,
The old teachers also began to look at Shen Qiqi with new eyes.
They all said that this new type of education is really effective!
Seeing the children happily studying, Shen Qiqi's heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment.
She knew that this educational reform had just begun...
"What if..." Lu Qing suddenly spoke up, pulling out a mysterious little box from his pocket, "What if we add some more ingredients?"
Lu Qing mysteriously took out a gadget from the box. It looked like a large flashlight, but was connected to some coils and parts that Shen Qiqi had never seen before.
"What... is this?" Shen Qiqi was confused, and curiosity came online.
Lu Qing cleared his throat in a pretentious manner: "Projector! This treasure I got from the county town cost me a lot of 'huge sums'!" He winked at Shen Qiqi with an expression of "please praise me quickly".
Shen Qiqi's eyes lit up instantly. She snatched the projector and started playing with it lovingly.
