Features: After the Third National Education Conference, the "Decision of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council on Deepening Education Reform and Comprehensively Promoting Quality Education" was issued. In 2001, the State Council held the National Basic Education Conference and promulgated the "Decision of the State Council on Basic Education Reform and Development." The Ministry of Education also issued the "Outline for the Curriculum Guidance of Basic Education." The promulgation of these series of documents has played a significant role in promoting the development of China's basic education. At the same time, it has also brought profound changes to our educational philosophy, teaching methods, and learning strategies. To help teachers and students better use the People's Education Press's experimental textbooks for compulsory education curriculum standards, we organized the writing of this series of "New Textbooks and Learning Plans." This series embodies the following educational concepts:
- Focusing on the teacher's guidance in teaching, but more on the subjectivity of students.
- Paying attention to students' academic performance, but more on the cultivation and development of their moral character, aesthetic awareness, scientific spirit, and humanistic spirit.
- Focusing on the evaluation of achievement-oriented content and terminal learning outcomes, as well as formative and extended ability evaluations.
- Focusing on the scientific teaching of knowledge, but also on the use of broad extracurricular educational resources.
- Focusing on existing successful classroom teaching models, but more on the innovation of teaching models using modern educational concepts.
- Focusing on the learning process of students, but more on stimulating their interest, as well as their emotional experiences and the formation of values during the learning process.
The times are advancing, and educational concepts are also keeping pace with the times. The experimental implementation of the new curriculum standards is steadily progressing. From recognition and acceptance to creating valuable practical results, frontline teachers still have a process to go through. To help teachers better embrace the new curriculum, we organized curriculum experts, experienced teachers from People's Education Press experimental areas, and teaching and research personnel to write this series. We welcome readers to provide criticism and suggestions for reference in the revision of the second edition.
