Dewey Education is the basic method of social progress and social reform. Reform that relies solely on the enactment of regulations, or the threat of punishment, or solely on changes in mechanical or external arrangements, is temporary and ineffective. Education is a regulating role in the process of achieving shared social consciousness, and the adaptation of individual activities based on this social appreciation is the only reliable method of social transformation.

In order to remind society to realize the goals of schools and to arouse society's awareness of the necessity of giving educators adequate equipment to carry out their careers, Dewey insisted that schools are the most basic and most effective means of social progress and reform. Tools are the task of everyone interested in a career in education. Education thus conceived marks the most perfect and intimate union of science and art imaginable in human experience. The art of thus forming the faculties of man and adapting them to social purposes is the noblest art; he who is able to accomplish it is the best artist; and for such purposes no one possesses any insight, sympathy, tact, or intelligence. No administrative ability will be redundant.

Only manpower willing to pay the price can adapt to this situation, and this price is education-an education that never ends; an education that mobilizes every faculty and means of life, not only intellectually, but also emotionally and imaginatively.

Liao Shicheng Sometimes a person's special talents are hidden inside, not only unknown to others, but also unknown to himself. ...It can be seen that not only is it difficult to understand others, but it is also difficult to understand oneself. Before adapting to the personality, a lot of work needs to be done...on the one hand, adding subjects, on the other hand, paying attention to guidance, so that students can realize their interests and interests on their own, and determine their path to inner improvement.

Mao Zedong: The situation is constantly changing. To adapt your thoughts to the new situation, you must learn.

Einstein The development of general abilities for independent thinking and independent judgment should always be given top priority, rather than the acquisition of specialized knowledge. If a person masters the basic theories of his subject and learns to think and work independently, he will surely find his own path and will be better off than someone whose training consists mainly of acquiring detailed knowledge.
