This reflects Tao Xingzhi’s academic attitude of learning from society and practice, and also contains the materialism that his understanding comes from practice and practice is the basis of understanding. Marxism-Leninism philosophy tells people to unite knowledge and action.

Tao Xingzhi criticized that traditional education has always regarded reading and listening as the "beginning of knowledge" and the only source of knowledge. After practicing for a long time, students "are unwilling to do it, dare not do it, and finally cannot do it." If you don’t, then you don’t know anything.” He believes that action is an important source of knowledge and the basis of creation.

Tao Xingzhi’s educational philosophy:

1. Life is education.

Tao Xingzhi believes that life always contains the significance of education. If education is only in writing, then the true meaning of education is lost. Only by taking life as the content of education will the content of education not be narrow, but broad and rich, and a good life can be transformed into a bad life.

2. Society is school.

Closely connected to the proposition that "life is education", this is a criticism and inheritance of Dewey's educational thought of "school is society". He put forward the idea of ??running schools according to social needs based on China's national situation that only a few people can get education.

The purpose of his proposal that "society is school" is to expand the objects of education and the content of learning, so that more people can receive education. There is too little learning content in schools. Education should be put into society so that more people can receive education. Whether inside or outside the school, there are teachers and students who can learn. At the same time, learning is more in line with life. It is consistent with China’s actual situation.

3. Integrate teaching and practice.

Tao Xingzhi believed that the teacher’s responsibility is to teach students to learn, and the method of teaching should be based on the method of learning. Teachers should not only teach but also learn. In other words, what teachers teach and what students learn are connected and related. Likewise, what teachers teach must be connected with what they learn. If teachers do a good job, the key to education will be solved.
