◎Work hard! Otherwise, the Qing Dynasty will fall!◎
I didn't expect that this kind-looking old master with a white beard would be such a person. It's true that you can't judge a person by his appearance and you can't judge the sea
by your capacity. Mo Yu was a little confused by such a soul-searching question, but after all, he was a social animal and a worker in the real world, so it's not a big problem to deal with a few small situations.
Isn't it just being called on to answer a question in class? It's
a small matter.
Let me slowly make it up for you... No, it's an answer.
In order to avoid sounding too much like nonsense, Mo Yu still hesitated for a moment before answering.
Of course, the answer was made up by him.
Although he is a time traveler, he is just an ordinary person even in the real world.
Born in an ordinary family, no matter what he did, he was ordinary and mediocre. He went from primary school to middle school step by step, with neither good nor bad grades. Then he went to an ordinary university, found an ordinary job, and lived an ordinary life.
Everything should have been so ordinary, but who knew that he would be in the world of the Red Mansions and become Daiyu's younger brother.
It's really unpredictable.
But it doesn't matter. If you are not afraid of death, then there is really nothing to be afraid of.
Besides, he is not dead yet, so why not do something stupid right now, or he will have no chance if he dies tomorrow...
Mo Yu encouraged himself silently, trying to put on a meaningful smile, and then pretended to be profound and said to the old white-bearded Taifu: "Taifu, have you heard of 'teaching students in accordance with their aptitude'?"
"'Teaching students in accordance with their aptitude'?"
The old Taifu was stunned when he heard this.
He knew "teaching without distinction", but he had never heard of "teaching students in accordance with their aptitude".
In the spirit of fearless pursuit of knowledge, the old master with white beard showed more respect to Mo Yu and asked him sincerely:
"Mr. Lin, what is 'teaching students in accordance with their aptitude'? I wonder if it has anything to do with Confucius' saying 'teaching without distinction'?"
In fact, it is not surprising that the old master reacted in this way. Even Mo Yu could not tell where the phrase "teaching students in accordance with their aptitude" came from.
Fortunately, it doesn't matter if he doesn't know. Does anyone know?
Before Mo Yu could even think about this idea, the occupational disease of System 006 broke out. It started to go online again, pretending to be a point-and-click machine, and showed Mo Yu the origin of "teaching students in accordance with their aptitude".
It turned out that this phrase was first picked out from the collection of works of a certain university scholar in the late Qing Dynasty.
How late was the late Qing Dynasty? That was during the reign of Emperor Guangxu, which was indeed late enough.
At that time, because of the activeness of a certain old Buddha and the reckless behavior of all levels of the Manchu dynasty, the Qing Dynasty was about to fall, and many modern advanced ideas gradually began to sprout.
It was at this time that cultural education would have such enlightened ideas.
I won’t talk about the early education. Apart from letting people work hard on eight-part essays, there was no practicality or technicality at all.
In fact, in terms of educational philosophy, Confucius was still very enlightened at that time.
The view of "teaching without distinction" raised by the old tutor was exactly proposed by Confucius. Otherwise, how can we say that the old tutor didn't read those books in vain?
Even if it is a word that I have never heard of, I can think of something related to it with my rich knowledge...
This "teaching students in accordance with their aptitude" is actually somewhat related to "education for all".
"Education for all" means that no matter what kind of person you are, you can receive education, everyone is equal, and everyone can and will make progress.
"Teaching students in accordance with their aptitude" emphasizes that the appropriate way of education should be chosen according to each person's own talents.
This places more emphasis on the requirements for educators - you see, to achieve "teaching students in accordance with their aptitude", you must first be good at discovering "talents", right?
Simply put, if you want to educate students well, you must first observe the students and find out what their talents are, what they like, and what they are good at. If you can't even see and figure it out, then after such a random education, the effect is likely to be unsatisfactory.
This educational concept can be said to be very modern.
According to the push information from System 006, this word first appeared in "Words of Warning in Times of Prosperity" written by Zheng Guanying, a Guangdong scholar in the Guangxu Dynasty. This book is actually a collection of essays. As you can see from the name, it is a "warning" put forward at the critical moment of the end of the world, and the theme is "enriching and strengthening to save the country."
Mr. Zheng had been exposed to a lot of Western culture in his early years and had a very open mind. This collection of essays is his hard work. It is said that it has put forward many good suggestions in various aspects such as politics, economy, military, diplomacy, culture, etc. The original intention was to cheer up the late Qing Dynasty, which had been in a slump since the defeat in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895.
But unfortunately, the corrupt late Qing government did not hear his "words of warning" and continued to sink. It barely lasted for a few more decades before it died.
Even so, many of his views are progressive in their time.
I just wonder what would happen if some of the views here were used now?
While Mo Yu was explaining the meaning of "teaching students in accordance with their aptitude" to the white-bearded old tutor, he was thinking about the bleakness of the late Qing Dynasty and the indignation and sorrow of being forced to open the country's doors by the great powers. Before he knew it, he had said a little too much...
By the time he came to his senses, the old tutor was already in a bad state.
His white beard trembled again and again, and after a long while he spoke tremblingly: "Young Master Lin, are you serious about this?"
Mo Yu was stunned, thinking to himself, I didn't say anything, why can't I take it seriously.
It's just "teaching students in accordance with their aptitude", what can't be true... Could it be that this violates some rules for educating royal children?
Mo Yu looked at the solemn expression of the old master, and his expression also became solemn. He pondered for a moment, and after thinking carefully, he nodded and said, "Of course I am serious."
He once again confirmed that he did not say anything he shouldn't say. He just suggested education reform. There shouldn't be any problem, right?
Seeing Mo Yu nod, the old master's face turned pale, thinking: Oh my God! What is this? Our Qing Dynasty is over? How is this possible...
Because he was too excited, the old master almost blurted out his hometown dialect.
But because of the magical restriction, he certainly couldn't say it directly. Of course, this didn't prevent him from being extremely shocked in his heart - from what the young master of the Lin family said, their Qing Dynasty couldn't last for a few generations?
How is this possible?
Although everyone knows that "thousands of years" are all lies, it can't even last for three hundred years.
Only two hundred and seventy-six years? Only
twelve emperors ascended the throne and then died?
Isn't this too short?
Let's not talk about comparing it with the great dynasties of the Shang Dynasty and the Zhou Dynasty, which lasted for six or seven hundred years, how can it not even compare with the Tang Dynasty, the Song Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty?
Ah...
the old master was in a bad mood.
Not only was he in trouble, but all the princes and grandchildren sitting in the classroom were also in trouble.
Although according to the age of the students, they were in a small class with only children between five and ten years old, but these children were not ordinary children, they were all royal children.
Among them were some big guys like Guozi and the eldest grandson of the emperor, Hongxi. They were certainly precocious, and it was normal for them to understand what Mo Yu's messy complaints meant... * ... Well, even if they didn't understand everything, they could at least understand the general idea.
The main thing was that the information in it was too shocking.
How many years has the Qing Dynasty been around, and they can actually know when it will fall?
Who can stand this?
Before, they vaguely heard that it was the fourth brother, the fourth uncle, and the fourth master who inherited the throne. After all, this matter was not particularly bad for most of these little kids.
In fact, the Fourth Prince had a high status in the hearts of the kids - it was true that he was not as amiable as the other brothers, but he had never hurt the little ones.
The most important thing was that this brother looked very powerful - not in the way that the Emperor praised the other brothers, uncles, and uncles, but he looked very reliable...
Sometimes, children's intuition was the most accurate, so it was no wonder that the Fourth Prince was the one who came to power in the end. Look, he had won over all the little kids with his personal charm so early on.
The key is that he still relies on his affinity, it's just, outrageous...
Of course, not all children look at the four great masters in this way, such as Hongxi. This unfortunate child, as the legitimate son of the prince and the legitimate grandson of Master Kang, is pampered and valued as the "Grandson of the Emperor".
It can be said that just as his father Yinreng was pampered by his grandfather Master Kang, he was pampered by Yinreng and even Master Kang.
Under such circumstances, he must have no good feelings towards his fourth uncle who wanted to snatch the throne that should have belonged to his father, the crown prince Yinreng.
Putting these aside, now everyone actually heard that in eight more emperors, almost in more than two hundred years, their Qing Dynasty would be destroyed. This news itself is very explosive.
The little princes and grandchildren wanted to cry, but they couldn't. They could only stay there and listen to the young master of the Lin family continue to talk... It was really too sad, and they couldn't cry. It was even more sad. What should they do?
So in such a gloomy and miserable situation, Mo Yu finished his "teaching students in accordance with their aptitude" and spoke out the history of the Qing Dynasty with his heart, making these little flowers of the royal family experience a storm...
If nothing else, at least they experienced the cruelty of the world in advance.
Anyway, from then on, I always felt that everyone was more excited. Why?
After a brief surprise, Mo Yu was somewhat relieved about it.
Anyway, there is nothing to do in this ancient time, so they can roll around if they like... But what does it mean that they keep pestering me to "tell stories"?
In fact, I am really not very good at telling stories...
It only took one morning for Mo Yu to become the focus of the entire South Study, and all the little flowers wanted to be friends with him.
It should be said that he has been unilaterally regarded as a friend by everyone.
Among them, the most enthusiastic ones were Hongxi and Hongyu, who had ignored him before. These two little enemies were competing with each other to see who was more stable at the beginning, but now they are not pretending.
The two children are equally close to Mo Yu, but a little too close, which makes Mo Yu a little overwhelmed.
But these two kids are also the type who love to learn, which makes Mo Yu helpless. He has to answer every question and unknowingly become a "reading machine".
The days passed quickly.
The effect of teaching students in accordance with their aptitude gradually showed up - yes, after being shocked by the end of the country's demise, the old tutor thought hard and decided to adopt Mo Yu's suggestion to "teach students in accordance with their aptitude".
The lively Seventeenth Prince, Honghui and others mainly took some riding and archery and outdoor sports. By the way, they were also trained in strategic books such as Sun Tzu's Art of War. Firstly, they were more interested in these books, and secondly, they were deliberately guided and trained. It was obvious that these children would develop into military generals in the future.
As for Hongxi, Hongyu, the sixteenth prince and others who were calm and introverted, they liked science, philosophy, and education. Nowadays, no one only reads Confucian classics. It happened that Master Kang asked the third prince to lead Chen Menglei and a group of people to work on the "Ancient and Modern Books Collection". Although it has only been two years, a lot of books have been collected. The old master brought many precious and compiled books for everyone to learn.
It's true that they are working on the "Ancient and Modern Books Collection". The books collected by the third prince and his people are really many, and they cover everything from astronomy and geography to mathematics and calendar.
This also made Mo Yu realize the benefits of being an "assistant teacher".
Yes, because of the wonderful speech on "teaching students in accordance with their aptitude" that day (not), the white-bearded old master thought highly of Mo Yu and decided to promote him to "assistant teacher" on the spot.
This position also existed in this era, but it was not called this name. Some were called "Xuezheng" and some were called "Jiaoxue". However, the functions and abilities were almost the same as the current teaching assistants, that is, assisting teachers in teaching and helping to assign homework.
Mo Yu is the youngest teaching assistant in history. This matter can make Jia Min and Lin Ruhai very happy... The child of their Lin family is really extraordinary.
Of course, the worries are also increasing day by day... I always feel that their Mo Ge'er is too extraordinary, and I hope he will not cause any big trouble.
As the saying goes, the more you fear something, the more it will happen. Just when Lin Ruhai and Jia Min were relieved and prepared to let Mo Yu let loose and do whatever he wanted, he really caused another big trouble.
