Chapter 453 Let the Flowers Bloom

"Let the mountains become mountains, let the trees take root, let the grass sprout, let the flowers bloom. The images of children are not all the same."

After listening to Li Luo's words, the teacher of the junior class became more certain that his position as a teacher should be handed over to Li Luo. Isn't this the personalized education that is often promoted in the junior class?
Compared with the rote learning in other schools, the teachers in the junior classes already respect the students' personalities. However, some of the students' personalities still disrupt the order of the classroom, making the teachers miserable.

Inspired by Li Luo, the teacher of the junior class suddenly had his own ideas and was very excited. Now, he couldn't wait to implement his great idea.

"Ling Xiaoguang, Ling Xiaolei, are you willing to go back with your teacher now?" The teacher still respected the opinions of the two children.

The two looked at the teacher, then at Li Luo, and finally nodded together: "Teacher, we are willing to go back with you."

Now they are beside Li Luo and can't help much, but if they miss classes for two or three days, they will fall behind in the course, and it will be difficult to catch up then.

The teacher was also very happy. After saying goodbye to Li Luo and others, he drove back to school and then reported his ideas to his superiors.

"Nonsense! Let the students be their own teachers. Do you think the teachers in our school are just there to do nothing? Isn't the job of a teacher to impart his or her knowledge and let the students digest it?"

"But principal, we want students to understand knowledge, not to build buildings on top of knowledge before they have fully digested and understood it and have a solid foundation."

"Isn't this a completely high-risk building? One day, with just a small earthquake, the tall building will instantly become a ruin."

"This is not the result we want to see." The teacher consoled the principal earnestly, his lips almost worn out.

"So, what do you think? If we let students be their own teachers, can we lay a solid foundation for them? Can we replace teachers? Don't just talk about me. Go ask other teachers if anyone agrees with your idea!"

"I don't need other people's approval now. I want to educate these children myself and will not be influenced by you. Besides, I have never said that if the children become teachers, the teachers will become hands-off."

"Teacher, please look after me."

Zhao Qiang left the office, his heart burning with excitement, and came to the classroom, intending to implement his plan.

"Students, let's take out our textbooks now. The teacher wants to ask you a question."

The students took out their books one after another. Although they were confused, no one refuted Zhao Qiang.

"Teacher, we have taken it out, what's next?"

"Students, have you really absorbed the knowledge that the teacher has taught you? Have you thoroughly understood all the knowledge points?"

The students didn't understand why the teacher asked this, but a few of them still shouted, "I understand, teacher, we have been consolidating this knowledge!"

After hearing the statistical results, Zhao Qiang smiled and said, "In that case, let's start reviewing from the beginning. I won't repeat these basic knowledge points again. Moreover, I need every student to go on stage and talk about this knowledge."

"Until all your students have mastered the knowledge you want to teach, and I will also become your student, if you cannot answer my questions, then you are not a qualified teacher." As soon as Zhao Qiang said this, he was immediately met with boos. Only Ling Xiaoguang and Ling Xiaolei fell into deep thought about Zhao Qiang's words.

Isn't this what his mother did when she asked him and his brother to explain the questions to each other? But now the roles have been reversed, and the mutual learning between the two brothers has become a role exchange between the entire class, including the teacher and the student.

It sounds quite interesting.

Seeing that everyone was so controversial, Zhao Qiang was worried at first. Would his educational method fail right from the start?
But fortunately, the first two brothers to stand up were Ling Xiaoguang and Ling Xiaolei.

"Teacher, this was the model we used when we studied at home before. We can demonstrate it here."

When Zhao Qiang heard this, he thought it was a great idea. With someone to help demonstrate, everyone would have a reference and previous knowledge could be consolidated. He could also check for gaps and know where he had not explained well, thus preventing students from losing points on the exam.

Soon, the two brothers took turns to come forward and recount what they had learned in the language they were familiar with.

Zhao Qiang originally thought that he might be able to add something, but suddenly he found that some terms, after the children's polishing, became more intuitive and easier to understand. Does this prove that he should have done this a long time ago?

Seeing Ling Xiaoguang and Ling Xiaolei shining in the classroom, the other gifted students naturally would not miss this opportunity to show themselves.

"Teacher, I want to speak too!"

Little hands were raised one after another like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.

Zhao Qiang couldn't help but sigh that this way of teaching not only allows students to participate, but also does not weaken the role of the teacher in the slightest. Instead, it makes the relationship between students and teachers closer.

"Next, does anyone else want to give a lecture?" Zhao Qiang looked around and it seemed that all the students were participating.

So when no one raised their hands, Zhao Qiang stood up and said, "Today, our first trial lecture for the junior class has ended successfully. Everyone participated very actively, and some of the content they talked about was even more profound than what the teacher said."

"But there are still some very specific pieces of knowledge that your understanding is still somewhat lacking. Next, the teacher will help you fill in the gaps..."

After Zhao Qiang found a new learning method, he passed his method on to other teachers, but the other teachers were dismissive of Zhao Qiang's method.

"Zhao Qiang, don't think you are so great just because you teach the junior class. There are many people in our school who are more capable than you, but none of them have stood out like you!"

"We have been engaged in education for many years. Isn't it all for the good of students? Don't we want students to learn more knowledge?"

"You are putting the cart before the horse. The teacher doesn't look like a teacher, and the students don't look like students. I don't know what the junior class will fall into after this."

"Also, the principal asked me to tell you that if the performance of your junior class still cannot catch up with the worst class in the general high school, the principal will consider canceling your junior class."

"You are no longer worthy of being a teacher. These people are all good talents. Look at what you have taught them. In a class of 20 people, not a single one has good grades?"
