Features: This book adopts a combined writing style of main text (concise, popular, and systematic exposition of fundamental theoretical knowledge in education), appendices (selecting numerous new, typical, and practical materials reflecting the times and reality after each chapter), and exercises (designing various types of comprehensive thinking exercises after each chapter and stage to cultivate students' intelligence). This approach is convenient for teachers to teach and students to learn, especially suitable for correspondence students to self-study, integrating teaching, reading, and practice, as well as combining learning and thinking, which is beneficial to promoting the development of students' intelligence. The book discusses the theory and practice of quality-oriented education in relevant chapters, introducing the experience of promoting quality-oriented education, which will undoubtedly exert a strong promoting effect on the transition of basic education from "exam-oriented education" to quality-oriented education.

The book also introduces and selects the glorious achievements and educational thoughts of the Anhui-native educator Tao Xingzhi, emphasizing the great spirit and dedication of Mr. Tao to rural education, which will undoubtedly have a positive impact on learners to follow and emulate Mr. Tao and dedicate themselves to rural education.
