Features: In the era of the knowledge economy, lifelong learning is essential for everyone. What to learn? How to learn? The International 21st Century Education Commission solemnly proposes the four pillars of education in the 21st century: Learning to know, Learning to do, Learning to live together, and Learning to be. This book tells you how to learn to live together. Learning to live together is not primarily about learning from books. One of its most effective ways is to engage in social activities with a shared purpose, learning to find new identities and establish new consensus through various "" (harmonizations), and gaining practical experience from them. Therefore, schools and society should provide more time and opportunities for students to participate in cooperative activities from a young age, including sports, arts, and social volunteer work. Learning to live together is not just about learning a social relationship; it also means harmonious coexistence between humans and nature. From China's ancient philosophical tradition of "harmony between heaven and humanity" to the contemporary world's advocacy of "environmental protection" and "sustainable development," all point to the importance of learning to coexist with nature. This learning, like other forms of learning, involves the acquisition and cultivation of knowledge, skills, attitudes, and values.
