Cultivating exploratory and innovative thinking qualities (People's Forum) for teenagers | Science | Innovation
National key laboratories such as the National Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory, Quantum Optics and Optical Quantum Devices Laboratory, and Extreme Service Performance Precision Manufacturing Laboratory are open to the public, organizing young people to conduct live science broadcasts, offline visits, exchanges and discussions, scientific experiments, Tianjin Robot Competition, Jilin Mobile Science and Technology Museum, Hunan Province "Science Night" and other activities are interesting ...... Not long ago, the 2023 National Science and Technology Week with the theme of "Love Science and Advocate Science" closed. The rich and colorful popular science activities and fascinating scientific and technological experience have stimulated the curiosity, imagination and desire of young people.
Education is the great plan of the country and the party. Building a strong education country is based on basic education. Not long ago, the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China conducted the fifth collective learning on building an education strong country.
Ji Ji Duoshi is a great achievement; Talents are flourishing, and national fortune is flourishing. The great cause of national rejuvenation calls for innovative talents to stand out. For a period of time, compared to mastering specific knowledge and skills, some primary and secondary school students lack exploratory and innovative thinking. How to better solve the question of Qian Xuesen and cultivate innovative talents in the new era? In a sense, innovative talents cannot do without the basic education of innovation. Solving problems in basic education and cultivating students' exploratory and innovative thinking is essential for promoting the construction of an innovative country.
Cherish curiosity and stimulate imagination. Curiosity is human nature and the source of innovative thinking. The starting point of scientific research, especially basic research, is often the curiosity of scientists to explore the mysteries of nature. Zhou Zhonghe, an academician of the CAS Member and a paleontologist, likes to explore paleontology, which is derived from the "Fossil" magazine ordered by his high school head teacher; Zhu Shining, an academician of the CAS Member, read "Scientists Talk about the 21st Century" when he was in primary school, which made him have a beautiful vision for the future. Guiding children to experience the beauty of "mysterious" science, encouraging them to ask more "why" and daring to explore, can guide and cultivate young people's interest in science, and make them understand that innovation is not mysterious and ubiquitous, and is something that everyone can do.
Sprinkle the seeds of science onto a curious soul.Recently, the Ministry of Education and 18 other departments jointly issued opinions on strengthening science education in primary and secondary schools in the new era. Looking towards the future, we still need to highlight practical results and make long-term contributions, improve the science education system in primary and secondary schools, organically integrate resources from all sectors of society, provide a good environment and atmosphere for children, and help them run towards the sea of science.
Teaching according to one's aptitude is the key to showcasing one's talents. Children are born with innovative genes and have a strong interest in new things. They are both good at imitating and eager to explore. However, the potential of each child is different. Continuously deepening education reform, taking care of the needs of every child, maximizing individualized teaching, helping them discover their interests and talents, stimulating individual exploratory thinking and creative potential to the greatest extent, fully enhancing thinking, judgment, expression, and observation abilities, can make teenagers full of hope for the future.
Youth intelligence leads to national intelligence, and youth strength leads to national strength. The more solid basic education is carried out, the more stable the pace of building a strong education country and the more sufficient the momentum. In the new journey of building a strong country and national rejuvenation, grasping the laws of education, improving the quality of education, and focusing on cultivating students' exploratory and innovative thinking qualities can lay a solid foundation for building an innovative talent team, thereby winning advantages, initiative, and the future.
