Chapter 330 School System

"In my opinion, our goal is to revive as many technologies that are useful to us as possible in our lifetime, and adapt them to the environment, rather than simply restoring them." Ma Qianju said, "The difference in the environment makes our technologies It will inevitably take a completely different path from another time and space..."

"The duke's steampunk taste is coming again." Someone whispered below.

Steam-powered gear computers, high-speed double-decker steam trains, and floating airships.These are the three "future technology" proposals that the steampunk group headed by Ma Qianju is most passionate about.

At this time, Hu Qingbai, the head of the education committee, stood up and said: "According to everyone's proposal, I discussed it with my colleagues from the Ministry of Education and think that in terms of education, we can uphold the principle of walking on two legs."

The so-called "walking on two legs" means both a crash-style universal education and a formal education.The former is used to meet immediate needs, while the latter is used to reserve talents for future development.

This seemingly eclectic plan is comprehensive, but it is operable and conforms to the current material capabilities.Finally, it was accepted and confirmed by everyone: Time Travel Group will establish a mixed education system: national education for children and accelerated education for adults.

The first is the national school, which is the foundation of national education.What they are facing are the orphans who have been taken in and the children of the aboriginals who directly serve the crossing group.It is mandatory, and all children who are eight years old and under twelve years old must enroll in school.For those who are over the age, the relaxation is that they can only participate in the accelerated literacy study for adults, and get a basic C-level diploma.

The national school is a complete school, divided into two stages: primary school and secondary school.It takes nine years to complete the full education.But Hu Qingbai divided it into three stages: junior primary school, senior primary school and middle school.In addition to this, a nursery home dedicated to pre-school children has been set up.

The two-year primary school curriculum is based on basic reading, writing and arithmetic, and civic education—including simple Chinese history, basic morality and social ethics, and simple natural science knowledge.Set up labor skills classes to teach various useful job skills to improve hands-on ability and prepare for future work.The last is to set a certain amount of physical education classes to enhance physical fitness, starting from children to change the Chinese tradition of despising labor and ignoring hands-on practice.

After this stage of education is completed, a Type B diploma will be issued.Graduates can serve in the army, enter vocational schools or military and political schools, and can also directly join a department under the Crossover Group to work.The education department plans to take the popularization of the second grade diploma as the biggest task in the next few years, including in the army, factories, farms and other aspects.

Children who are able to continue their studies can be promoted to senior primary school, the schooling lasts for three years, and they will receive a Type A diploma after graduation.

Those who have a Type A diploma can choose to continue their studies in secondary schools, vocational technical schools or military and political schools.Secondary school is four years.According to the plan of the traveler: those who can go to middle school will be the key training objects.The curriculum focuses on more theory and basic science, so that these children can finally master the advanced science and technology, ideas and culture brought by the traversers.In other words, students who can complete the nine-year national education and obtain a high school diploma will become out-and-out social elites and one of the successors of the Time Travel Group in the future.

Accelerated adult education is the focus at this stage.Based on the requests and opinions put forward by various parties, Hu Qingbai came up with a plan: All indigenous soldiers and employees will undergo a one-month "purification" quarantine once they are recruited.

During the quarantine period, half a day of military training and labor and half a day of cultural study were adopted.The army is responsible for military training, and cultural education is carried out by personnel sent by the Ministry of Education.The educational content is Putonghua, [-] basic Chinese characters, basic addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.Take a test at the end.Those who pass the test will be issued a Type C diploma.

Those who fail the test can be re-educated in the department that received him-the army, the factory, and take part in the cultural proficiency test every six months.Re-education is arranged and organized by each department, and the education department provides assistance.

The Type C diploma is the most basic diploma under the time-traveling regime, without which it is almost impossible to move forward.Those without a Type C diploma cannot be promoted to regular workers, first-class soldiers, enter vocational and technical schools, let alone serve as grassroots cadres.In other words, without this diploma, one can only serve as the lowest-level laborer in the time-traveling group.No door for advancement will be open for him.

Originally, according to Hu Qingbai's intention, those who failed the test would be expelled, but given the current strong demand for labor and soldiers, it would be too wasteful to do so.

Those who have obtained the C diploma can continue to participate in further adult training as long as there is interest and time.Raise the level of culture.But not mandatory.It's just that when the aborigines are promoted to a certain level, the diploma will become the entry threshold-certain types of jobs, positions, military ranks, or training for certain advanced vocational skills must hold a certain level of diploma.This is to stimulate everyone's enthusiasm for learning through people's self-motivation.

The education department will arrange a cultural proficiency test every six months, and anyone can come and participate.

Another part of adult education is vocational skills education.The current vocational education is relatively organized.The Apprentice Corps has a large scale, and all the orphans taken in from the mainland who are judged to be unsuitable for cultural study are included in the Apprentice Corps.The children of many indigenous employees in the group also joined the team.

Hu Qingbai plans to set up a vocational school based on this corps.This vocational school follows the system and educational model of the original Apprentice Corps.The recruited objects are for all indigenous people who have obtained diplomas: whether it is A, B, C or secondary school diplomas.Of course, different diplomas can learn different types of jobs.Grinding workers and nurses only need a Type C diploma, teachers and doctors must have a Type B diploma or above, and doctors must have a secondary school diploma.

Vocational schools focus on high-tech jobs that require longer training to be competent, including technicians, teachers, medical staff, etc., which are also for the future.Depending on the type of work, the training period ranges from three months to three years.During the period, there were cultural studies and internships in various departments.

Finally, there is the military school.The original military and political school and the rural cadre workshop were merged and reorganized into Lingao Military and Political Cadre School.Focus on training indigenous military and political cadres.The school is divided into three levels: A, B, and C.Class A recruits those with a high school diploma; Class B recruits students with a Class A diploma.Class C recruits holders of Type B diplomas—only on-the-job employees and soldiers, who are recommended by the organization for admission.

Such an education system that takes into account both short-term practical skills and long-term discipline training makes all parties relatively satisfied.Although some people have some criticisms about the time-traveling group returning to the model of diploma omnipotence.

With the education system, it is necessary to build the teaching infrastructure.The place Xiao Zishan was going to was the site of the new school, and many long dormitories had already been built here.This place is far away from the industrial area, the environment is relatively good, and there are some miscellaneous trees.The terrain is high and sandy, which is not conducive to farming, so it is suitable for running a school.Now Lingao Construction Corporation is building a brand new school on this land.

Due to limited manpower and material resources, it is impossible to build three schools separately, so this land is called "Education Park" according to another fashionable name in time and space.All kinds of teaching and living facilities inside can be shared.This educational park is named "Fangcaodi Educational Park".

When Xiao Zishan came here, the teaching area of ​​Fangcaodi was nearly completed.Looking from a distance from the road: more than a dozen two-story red brick and wood buildings have sprung up. These buildings are very familiar to Xiao Zishan——the primary and middle schools he studied in the past had similar teaching buildings: long strips. A box with an open corridor on one side.Set up a staircase every two classrooms.At least four to eight classrooms can be accommodated in a building, and there are even twelve to sixteen classrooms.

Mei Wan, education committee member Hu Qingbai, and clerk Bai Yu were waiting for him.It is reasonable to say that he, the director of the general office, is not in charge of education issues, and it is not his responsibility to check the school construction situation. However, as the director of the general office, Xiao Zishan is responsible for solving the education problems of the next generation of the time-traveling group, so it is logical to intervene in the school construction.

The appearance of the school is still very bleak, lacking building materials so there are no walls, which is very in line with the idea of ​​"opening up schools", but it is quite dangerous to have no walls in this time and space. Mei Wan's replacement plan is a dense bamboo fence. There are many bamboos here , and easy to process.

"...At that time, we will plant some vine-climbing Rosaceae plants along the bamboo fence. After a few years, no matter whether people or animals can get close, it will become a real natural 'barbed wire'!" Mei Wan introduced. .

The gate is very majestic, using large stones specially quarried from the Bairen quarry, and the Sanmen Cave-style European-style building—according to Mei Wan, it was copied from the gate of Tsinghua University.It's just that nondescript buildings were added on both sides of the gate.Four signs have been hung on the door: "Lingao National School", "Lingao Military and Political School", and "Nanhai Vocational Technical School".

The last sign is "People's Committee for Education".

Xiao Zishan asked, "What's going on?"

"Oh, Wu Nanhai promised to allocate some extra food to the students from the farm's surplus agricultural products. So it's reciprocal." Hu Qingbai said quickly, "Boss Wen has already agreed."

Hearing that Mr. Wen had already agreed, Xiao Zishan didn't say anything.Seeing the board of the Education Committee hanging here, he said: "The environment here is very good, and it is a good place to work."
