Education cannot abandon the most fundamental aspects

Artificial intelligence empowers education. A new track and new opportunities have arrived, along with new challenges and concerns.

Inside the venue, member Xu Kun from Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications brought practical reflections: "Artificial intelligence has become a key variable in accelerating the transition from an education powerhouse to an education powerhouse

General Secretary Xi Jinping expressed great interest in this topic: "There are some issues that need to be clarified regarding the digitization of education

Nowadays, on the one hand, with the advent of intelligent networking and artificial intelligence, the tools and methods of education will change, and the cultivation of students' abilities will also undergo changes. These need to be reformed in accordance with the times. On the other hand, the cultivation of students' enlightenment, spiritual development, basic cognitive and problem-solving abilities cannot be relaxed. Basic skills still need to be developed

Comparing the past and present, he gave an example: In the past, when I went to the store to buy things, I found that some people had to count them one by one to find change, often judging that this was a manifestation of insufficient basic mathematical ability. After using a computer, the basic skill requirements in this area are different from when I used to use an abacus. Nevertheless, 'education cannot abandon the most fundamental aspects'.

As the saying goes, 'To be right at the end is to be right at the root, and to be good at the latter is to be cautious at the beginning.'. What are the 'most basic' aspects of education that cannot be lost in today's surging digital wave?

For example, the inheritance of the red gene.

Member Ma Jinglin comes from Beijing No.4 Middle School, and the topic of his speech is cultural inheritance and cultural confidence. After hearing this, General Secretary Xi Jinping expressed his feelings and said, "Schools will sow a seed in a person's heart. Primary, secondary, and even kindergarten will play an important role in a person's life, and we must start from a young age. We must effectively integrate the 'small classroom' of ideological and political education with the 'big classroom' of society.

This reminder contains the determination in the face of the changing times.

We must firmly guard education and cultivate patriotism from a young age, "General Secretary Xi Jinping said earnestly." From a young age, we must establish our ideals, strengthen our beliefs and confidence, and in this way, we will have a reliable successor for the cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics

For example, reading.

The prosperity of culture cannot be separated from the spiritual nourishment brought by reading. Fragmentation of reading "is also a" annoyance "accompanying digitalization.

In the digital age, with the fast pace of society, it is not easy to calm down and patiently sit down and read a book. "General Secretary Xi Jinping spoke from the past scholarly family to the current advocacy for building a scholarly campus and society, full of expectations:" Bookish culture is an atmosphere

Upon hearing member Zheng Jiajian from Fujian Normal University propose to "create a diverse and three-dimensional reading ecosystem for children and adolescents," the General Secretary affirmed that "digital reading should be combined with traditional reading to safeguard our core and literacy

This instruction indicates the strategy of making technology "work for me".

With the help of a network cable, a screen, and a platform, high-quality educational resources span mountains and seas. In recent years, the education industry has been infused with digital wings and has shown a myriad of trends. The implementation of the national education digitalization strategy has been included in the "Outline of the Plan for Building an Education Strong Country (2024-2035)". China's ranking in the Global Digital Education Development Index has risen to ninth place.

To implement the national education digitalization strategy, build a learning oriented society, and promote the emergence of talents of all types and levels, General Secretary Xi Jinping will have in-depth exchanges with everyone on this topic during the "delegation".

In the face of the opportunities of digital education, we should have both determination and initiative, in order to create a fragrant atmosphere of books and produce a large number of talents, and for the future of the Chinese nation.
