Now, what happened one second ago may appear on the internet the next, and then cause thousands of readings and reposts. Among them, there are true stories, rumors, out of context and deliberate guidance, which makes the new network red born almost every day. Some online celebrities are just a flash in the pan and are soon abandoned by the public. Some of them can live forever with their real skills and frequently appear in the public eye.
Professor Zheng Qiang, a network celebrity of Zhejiang University, is one of the evergreen trees. He has attracted a lot of fans with the characteristics of daring to say and do, and therefore he has become the darling of the media. However, most of the videos that made him popular on the Internet were stolen without his authorization, which deeply troubled him. Among them, there is a video about his son being fired twice. In it, he said that his two sons were worthless because of their middle school teachers.
The middle school teacher made Zheng Qiang's son worthless?
In fact, the above sentence is taken out of context from the sensational title of an article, but it can arouse the consent of some parents and the indignation of some teachers, isn't it? In fact, Professor Zheng Qiang's initial statement in his speech did not mean this. For example, he said that his son's class rules said that students and parents should write a review together if they violated six times. His son is often recorded for six violations, and the father and son have not written less reviews.
Professor Zheng Qiang said that his son often wrote comments, which proved that this measure had no substantive effect. On the contrary, the son will be cultivated into "servility" by such class rules, thinking that no one will talk about himself, so he will make an exception and write a review. But he never said that the middle school teacher made his son worthless.
Zheng Qiang's son was expelled from middle school twice because he was too naughty. But instead of giving up his son, he chose to change three schools for his son. Zheng Qiang's son is not a worthless scum. He has two sons, one is admitted to Sichuan University and the other is high flyers from Fudan University. Both of them were admitted to 985 University. How can they be worthless?
To judge a person, you should listen to his words and observe his actions. Professor Zheng Qiang's educational philosophy is that children should not overtraining in primary and secondary schools, but should play freely, which is of great help to their future development. Some people didn't play enough when they were young, but when they grow up, it will be fun without the supervision of their parents.
However, from the fact that Professor Zheng Qiang chose three schools for his naughty son, we can see that he actually affirmed the role of teachers in the growth of students. But when the media reports, in order to catch people's attention, the headlines will deliberately cover up his behavior, saying only that Professor Zheng Qiang said that the middle school teacher made his son worthless.
Some people won't click to see more in-depth supplementary information. If they just read a headline, they will be misled by this out of context. Anyone with a little sense will have a bad impression on Professor Zheng Qiang. Confused people will think that a capable professor like Zheng Qiang says that schools are harmful to people, or that children who fail themselves will not go to school, right? Anyway, I'm old enough to work.
School education or family education
Many people have their own views on education. Zheng Qiang doesn't want to set too many restrictions on his sons' adolescence, which will make them look naughty. But Zheng Qiang himself is a professor. He won't give up his children's education. If children can be expelled twice, he can send them to school for the third time. Family education has little interference with children, so send it to school for teachers to educate. His two children were admitted to 985, which is the cooperation of school education and family education.
The author also knows the story of Sun Tianchang, a prodigy of college entrance examination. He only went to kindergarten for three days and junior high school for five days. 13 years old, admitted to China University of Science and Technology with 659 points. Just reading this sentence, people may think that a truly talented person can become a talent without the teaching of the school at all.
But Sun Tianchang was actually trained by four tutors. Their parents are both parents and nurses. Before he was admitted to China University of Science and Technology, he went to a key high school to teach in order to adapt to the college entrance examination system in China. This seamless connection between family education and school education is the reason why he created the myth of college entrance examination.
After being admitted to China University of Science and Technology, Sun Tianchang, who was divorced from his parents' discipline, was somewhat playful. He graduated from China University of Science and Technology successfully, but his grades were not qualified for postgraduate entrance examination. This also confirms Professor Zheng Qiang's view that "he didn't play enough when he was a child, but he may be very playful when he grows up".
From these two examples, in the process of a child's growth, school education and family education are best to cooperate with each other, at least one of them. Zheng Qiang's son's class rules of "father and son write a review together" reflect the teachers' good intentions. When schools are not good at disciplining children, they hope that parents can shoulder the responsibility of educating their children. The reason why Zheng Qiang's son keeps on teaching is that Professor Zheng Qiang lets him play.
But for the general public, they don't have the conditions that Sun Tianchang's family are all teachers and Zheng Qiang is the capital of professors. If you take a sentence out of context and ignore the background conditions, I believe that children should have fun when they are young. When teachers are out of control, they don't want to take on the educational responsibility as parents. They think that the teacher has harmed the child, and that the child is naughty and can work. Then such consequences are self-inflicted, and you can't blame others.
Knowing one and not knowing the other? Unbearable
Back to the beginning, Professor Zheng Qiang was not only misunderstood as "middle school teachers hurt children", but also had many views on online celebrities. But many of them are distorted and even maliciously fabricated by some people. For example, "Professor Zheng Qiang advocates kicking English out of the college entrance examination" and "Professor Zheng Qiang says that sending children abroad to attend primary and secondary schools is over" ... These sensational headlines are actually aimed at gaining traffic or provoking disputes.
As for English, Professor Zheng Qiang's original words only think that China's excessive exaggeration of the weight of foreign languages in children's growth is a remarkable manifestation of the nation's extreme self-confidence. But this is obviously not as eye-catching as "kicking English out of the college entrance examination".
Regarding international students, Professor Zheng Qiang's original words were: "How can such a small student be patriotic when he grows up, having been sent abroad to study and not knowing the history of China?" This kind of emotion is more vivid, but it makes sense. Primary and secondary schools are an important period to cultivate children's patriotism. Sending children abroad during this period is likely to affect their sense of belonging to China when they grow up.
There are still many such distortions and misinterpretations. Some unscrupulous media, like vultures who see meat, try their best to distort Professor Zheng Qiang's theme, hoping to gain more eyeballs, and therefore put him in the position of an online celebrity.
In fact, this phenomenon is very unhealthy. 20 13, when Zheng Qiang attended the two sessions, he talked with leaders about education reform. He said that the brain drain in the west made their hearts bleed, while other places were "overnourished" while the west was seriously malnourished. He turned to the leadership and expressed the hope that the country would build universities in the west, give children in the west more opportunities for education and realize their dreams.
Zheng Qiang doesn't consider himself an "internet celebrity", and he has repeatedly denied rumors. He only thinks of himself as a teacher. As a teacher, he must have full passion, energetic eyes and loud and bright language in order to benefit the audience. Low-key can really protect yourself from harm, but this is wrong and needs to be changed.
Unfortunately, the crazy online media forcibly praised this angry young teacher as an online celebrity, and many readers and viewers accepted the wrong information because of sensational headlines, out-of-context statements and even malicious editing, only knowing one thing and not knowing the other, thus being incited, clamored and used. This has to be said to be a very regrettable phenomenon.
In a word, Professor Zheng Qiang is not only praised as an "Internet celebrity", but also a professor who dares to speak out and tell the truth that everyone dare not, a teacher who preaches, teaches and dispels doubts. I hope the public can keep their eyes open and distinguish the true and false information, and don't believe the headline "The professor thinks the teacher will make the child worthless".
Now there are celebrity professors on the Internet one after another, as well as Chen Guo and Yu Dan ... who have seen his tall buildings rise and fall, but the author hopes that Zheng Qiang will not be one of them. After all, Zheng Qiang is an outspoken gentleman, and some things that ordinary people dare not say always need someone to say.
