The 2019 National College Entrance examination is over. No one asks about it for ten years, and the golden list is known to the world. As the most important exam for the vast number of students, the National College Entrance examination attracts wide attention and discussion every year. On June 7, the first day of the college entrance examination, the most talked about essays were revealed one by one, which quickly took up many places on Weibo. For example, the theme of the Jiangsu paper is "The true face of life", which emphasizes the truth of life, namely "everything has its own nature, sweet, sour, bitter, hot and salty, five flavors are harmonized, coexist and exist together. "Create a life" is the theme of this year's Zhejiang volume, the unique topic let most candidates cry "confused", netizens have lamented that China's college entrance examination composition has opened the "hell mode", more and more difficult...
Composition = Solid foundation + imagination + creativity
Why is the college entrance examination composition more and more difficult? In fact, careful study will find that it is not difficult to write the composition, but the college entrance examination to their own creativity, imagination requirements higher. Different from the way of fixed questions in the past, the current college entrance examination no longer only focuses on the amount of knowledge, but pays more attention to the students' understanding and perception of life. Most of the essay questions only give a vague topic, which requires the students to understand the meaning by themselves and then give full play to their creativity to write. The old method of memorizing several argumentative essays and being familiar with the routine can no longer be used.
The new composition of the college entrance examination not only points to the direction of the reform of exam-oriented education, but also shows the country's unprecedented attention to quality education. Blindly rote memorization can no longer adapt to the current education model. In addition to solid learning of basic skills, candidates' creativity and imagination will become the focus of the fierce college entrance examination competition track. The best age to cultivate children's imagination and creativity is 4-8 years old. Parents can guide children to observe more things around them, cultivate children's spirit of exploration through manual practice, and let children learn by playing, thinking in learning, thinking in creation, which is also the core purpose of the children's hand creation Club, a well-known educational brand institution in the field of children's hand creation in China. "Play" is the nature of children. Under the guidance and guidance of professional teachers, Stim Children's Handicraft Club enables children to cultivate their hands-on ability and problem-solving ability in practice through hand-making courses such as model aircraft and electronic technology, which is very helpful to cultivate children's imagination and creativity. Einstein once said: "imagination is more important than knowledge", the future only with rich imagination, creativity, can have more chances to win. Stim training children, starting from play, tell everyone that fun will also be able to "lie and win" in the college entrance examination!
Tim: Let children love learning through play
With the implementation and promotion of the new college entrance examination and new curriculum reform policies, more and more students' parents begin to realize the importance of comprehensive quality and ability training, and the country attaches great importance to quality education and scientific and technological innovation. In 2019, STEAM education, which originated in the United States, has already stood at the new entrance of the education industry. STEAM education refers to Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics. This interdisciplinary education concept aims to enable children to develop comprehensively in the fields of science, technology, engineering, mathematics and art. So as to improve the future competitiveness of talents. As a pioneer representative institution of STEAM education in China, Stim Children's Handicraft Club is the first "interdisciplinary comprehensive practical education" training institution in China that perfectly integrates the world's leading STEAM education concepts with experiential hands-on teaching methods.
The summer vacation in June, July and August every year is the busiest time for the teachers of Tim's Hand creation Club. The old students continue their classes and the new students ask to join in an endless stream. "Our courses are mainly for children aged 6-12 years old. Nearly 500 hours of STEAM education courses cover wood art, electronics, technology, 3D printing, model aircraft, leather art, art painting, folk art and other themed practical activities. The forms of courses are rich and interesting. In addition, education consumption is characterized by a long decision-making cycle, large consumption amount, irreversible service process, and high trial and error cost. Educational institutions need to establish a brand reputation with high trust for a long time. Our membership renewal rate remains above 30% all year round, which is very rare in the field of STEAM education." Tim hand club market leader Mr. Zhang said.
Wang Junkai is one of the students of Stim's Hand Creation Club. At the age of 12, he has already won the "first place in Jilin and third place in China" in the World Mind Olympiad, and successfully got the invitation letter to participate in the competition in the United States. In Tim's class, Wang Junkai always listens carefully to the teacher's explanation, focuses on all the details of each work production, from thinking about creation to hand-making, and never gives up even when faced with difficulties. Under the teacher's careful guidance, he actively gives play to his imagination and logical thinking ability. Every work in Tim's class makes him a great harvest. Not only did he develop the ability to focus on thinking and collaboration in the process, but more importantly, each work gave him confidence and a sense of accomplishment. Wang Junkai's parents have expressed their deep gratitude to Stim's teachers many times. They usually don't have much time to spend with their children, but Tim helps their children find their own world and make great progress in study. When they come home, they take the initiative to finish their homework, but also share some housework for their parents. This kind of growth is believed to be surprising and unexpected for every parent.
Children's imagination needs to be protected, while creativity needs to be cultivated. The teachers of Stim's creation Club have achieved this. Under the infiltration of Stim's environment, every child is constantly stimulating their own potential. Every parent is also assured to give their children to Tim, the liberation of parents, the release of children's nature, the future is within reach.
Tim: Abide by the original intention and do the education to accompany children for life
"Education is a long run, not a sprint. How far a country can go in the future depends on its young people's range of knowledge and imagination, which need to be cultivated from an early age. Many parents often tell us that it is difficult to figure out the child's heart and true character, in fact, just need to find a way to let him show himself, everything will have the answer, Tim hand creation club rich content, can give children the opportunity to play, there is no cramming education, children are willing to take the initiative to learn, think, do." Tim hand creation club founder Fei teacher said.
It is precisely because the founding team of Tim adhered to the original intention of STEAM education concept, and the STEAM education model created by Tim is different from other STEAM education institutions in the market. The rich curriculum content makes parents no longer think that STEAM education is physical education, focusing on science and engineering skills education. Get back to the true essence of the STEAM education philosophy. The parents of Stim's members once said, "Only by truly stepping into the world of children and presenting interesting curriculum content to them can they be inspired to explore and innovate and fall in love with learning. In this way, the effect on children will be long-lasting and profound, and at the same time, parents will be happy to see."
Ren Zhengfei, founder of Huawei, also bluntly said in an interview recently that the future society will eventually move towards artificial intelligence. It only takes 20 seconds to produce a mobile phone on Huawei's production line, and there are almost no workers on the production line. If workers do not have mathematical knowledge, English knowledge and more professional knowledge in the future, they cannot enter such a production line at all. If AI takes over the world in 20 or 30 years, there won't even be jobs for uneducated workers. This also gives us a warning that in the future, social creativity, imagination, scientific and technological education level will become an important criterion to measure talent, and even a necessary ability for social survival. With "innovation and creativity" as the core culture of the enterprise, Stim Hand Creation Club enables children to master the method of understanding the world from an early age through rich curriculum practice, cultivates their curiosity and creativity of the world, and forms a sound personality of independence, courage, confidence and responsibility, which virtually enhances their personal competitiveness.
As Gustave Le Pen said, "The education and environment a country provides for its young people can give us a glimpse of what the country will look like in the future." Science and technology is the primary productive force of national development. The development of science and technology cannot be separated from innovative talents, and the cultivation of innovative talents cannot be separated from innovative education methods. Stim Hand Creation Club adheres to the exploratory teaching method, takes students as the center, and inspires children's initiative of independent learning through teaching practice in specific situations and play. We believe that Stim will cultivate more innovative talents for the country in the future. Let's look forward to it together!
