A video was played on the large-screen TV in the conference room. It was a video of a female middle school teacher in Tiandu City, Dongguo, reprimanding a student in class. The angle should have been secretly filmed by a student with a mobile phone. The general idea is as follows——

"The students who were sent to my class in the past either had officials at home or were in particularly good conditions! Don't blame me for looking down on you... your mother earns more in one year than your mother has earned in fifty years. Yours Can the quality be the same?”

The video is very short, and is followed by the results of the local education authorities. The teacher has been suspended and his teaching certificate has been revoked. The local education department believed that his behavior seriously violated the ethics of teachers and caused extremely bad effects.

The impact was indeed very great and very bad. Even the education work conference in Fesuo Port City, a country far away in the Black Wasteland, used this incident as a special topic for discussion. After the video was played, there was free speech time, and everyone expressed their opinions.

The most representative view, and one that is recognized by the majority of people, is that this teacher was seriously unethical. The most fundamental problem is not her attitude, but a few unintentional words that reveal that her values ​​have been distorted without knowing it.

Are powerful people more noble? This topic needs no discussion!

Otherwise, the construction of "nobility" and "virtue" by thinkers in human history throughout the ages, including the practice of social civilization and progress for thousands of years, is really a waste of time!

If this kind of value is deeply explored and implemented, it will put a layer of reasonableness on all kinds of bloody exploitation and plunder.

Especially in Fesoport, which has just undergone liberation and transformation, this kind of value will give people a very bad association. Is it possible that every vicious gang boss is of higher quality than those who are oppressed by him? So what are the goals of all the efforts the new alliance has made since its establishment?

Except for the era of crazy slave owners where priests and theocratic powers controlled everything, no country or regime dared to publicly declare this, even if many rulers thought so deep down.

But they will only say that virtue brings status, but it is impossible to say that having status means having virtue.

This is not only a matter of shamelessness, but also a matter of life! Because promoting the view that "having status means having virtue" logically tells everyone that if they can replace their status, they will have their virtues.

Even in the speeches of the most servile schools of thought, poverty only corresponds to humbleness, and it does not symbolize evil virtue. On the contrary, many people encourage everyone not to care about status or poverty in life, but to pursue beautiful virtues. Some people who say this are sincere, and some may have ulterior motives.

That teacher actually openly preached the theory that powerful people are more noble in class. This not only shows a distortion of values, but also has an outrageously low emotional intelligence.

Although there is a lot of helplessness in reality, and it is difficult for people to make everything conform to their inner best choices, they must clearly understand the roots of happiness and pain.

Although there is also an old saying in the Eastern Kingdom, "Etiquette can only be understood through practical experience," the point of view it explains is that with the overall progress of society, spiritual needs will naturally follow after material satisfaction. This is actually two different things from "the powerful are more noble".

In a relatively fair society, people with higher quality and harder work are more likely to gain status and wealth. This logic seems to be correct. But it can never be used in reverse, let alone cause and effect.

With high quality, it is easy to obtain a higher status and more wealth through hard work. This causal relationship is no problem. Here quality is the cause, status and wealth are the effects. But to regard status and wealth as causes and quality as effects is to put the cart before the horse.

Quality lies in the quality itself, all the qualities and thoughts shown in a person's behavior.

There were others present who were relatively calm and did not vent their emotions. Instead, they pointed out the confusing logic used by the teacher. As an educator, you should not behave like that.

No child can choose his family background. The first premise of national education is fairness and "colleagues". This is not a problem of the child himself, and he should not be criticized for this.

By extension, as for the parents of their children, who wouldn’t want to have a higher status and more wealth? The premise is that there must be better choices. They have no original sin, especially no children who are sorry for themselves.

Since it is free speech, of course alternative viewpoints are also allowed. Some people also think that this teacher told the cruel "truth". The reality of society is that the lower the starting point, the more efforts have to be made.

Someone at the scene immediately pointed out that this was nonsense! The helplessness towards reality does not mean that it is taken for granted in the heart, and there is no need for this teacher to pour this bowl of poisonous chicken soup! Besides, the lower the starting point, the more deserving of abuse?

Ke Fuzi has been listening to everyone's discussion, while Hua Zhenxing is paying attention to Ke Fuzi. Hua Zhenxing found that Ke Fuzi's expression was always calm, except for the subtle changes in his brows. It was obvious that he recognized some views but did not agree with others.

Based on Hua Zhenxing’s understanding of the old man, in Ke Fuzi’s opinion, it was obvious that what everyone said did not grasp the point, or that they did not understand the real purpose of the old man’s designation of this event for discussion.

Hua Zhenxing didn't speak, because he understood the truth of what everyone said and there was no need to repeat it. However, he always felt like he was scratching an itch through a layer of clothes, but he never scratched the right place.

Seeing that everyone had finished speaking, Mr. Ke finally said, "Director Lian Na, what do you think of this matter?"

Lian Na didn't speak just now. What we were talking about today was a hot event in the Eastern Kingdom. Many of the people here also have a background in the Eastern Kingdom, but she was born and raised in the country of Beli. She received the traditional aristocratic education of Bailuozhou since she was a child. , it’s hard to say anything.

But Master Ke just called her name, and everyone became quiet.

Lian Na frowned slightly and said: "I just thought about it for a long time and was surprised by one thing. How can two children with such a big difference in family income sit in the same classroom and receive the same education? This is incredible. Oh! Is this a special case, or has this always been the case in the East?"

This is an exclamation and question, as if it simply describes a fact, and the opinion is hidden under the exclamation and question. No one spoke immediately, and the conference room fell into silence for a while.

Li Jingzhi and Lei Dajin frowned and narrowed their eyes, as if they were recalling something. Wang Fengshou and Li Xiaoyang looked at each other and nodded at the same time. They all studied in Dongguo when they were young. Li Jingzhi and Lei Dajin are older, while Wang Fengshou and Li Xiaoyang are younger.

After a while, Lei Dajin was the first to speak: "At least it was like this when I was studying and where I was studying." After graduating from university, Lei Dajin started as a township poverty alleviation cadre, and later became a As the top leader of a large, impoverished county, he is qualified to answer this question.

Wang Fengshou added: "In the era and place where I studied, the situation has changed, but generally it can still be done. As for the future, maybe this situation will become less and less, and another situation There will be more and more.

If one day, when the children of families with huge income gaps no longer sit in the same classroom and receive the same education, such idiot teachers may not have to say such things. "

Hearing this, Hua Zhenxing finally came to a realization. In fact, when Lian Na spoke just now, he had already reacted. It was like a bolt of lightning lighting up the night sky in his mind, and he finally understood the purpose of Ke Fuzi's discussion of this issue today.

The fact that the teacher himself violated teacher ethics does not need to be discussed too much.

Hua Zhenxing was thinking just now that the quality of that teacher was really bad, but is the quality of the teachers in Fisoport very high? I am afraid that 99.9% of the teachers here are not as educated as that female teacher.

The phenomenon of laughing at the poor but not at prostitution and catering to the powerful is seen everywhere and is not new. So what purpose and long-term goal should the New Alliance adhere to in its educational work?

Lian Na's words made it clear. Her exclamations and questions pointed out the nature, model and rules of education, reflecting a situation that amazed her. What Lina marveled at was what the New Alliance's educational work was pursuing.

At this time, Ke Mengchao spoke again: "Educational resources cannot be created by any one person. No matter how rich or prestigious he is, he cannot do it. This is the condensed wisdom of all mankind throughout the ages, summarizing countless experiences and lessons. , compiled into content that future generations can learn from.

The so-called fairness does not mean the absence of differences, but the equality of opportunities. Therefore, fairness in civic education is the bottom line of fairness in the entire society! Once this bottom line is not maintained, it will be the beginning of irreversible class solidification.

The civic education work of the New Alliance has just begun. There are too many deficiencies and it will need development and reform in the future. But no matter how we reform and develop, this purpose must be adhered to, otherwise it will be tantamount to betraying everything we have done today.

Today's discussion must be recorded and permanently retained as an attachment to the "Education Work Development Outline" so that others can see it later.

If one day, someone proposes another plan, no matter what the reason is, we must first judge whether it is consistent with this purpose? It determines what kind of world we are building and what kind of people we are! "

After hearing what Master Ke said, Hua Zhenxing thought of Charles again for some reason. His impression or evaluation of Charles has actually been changing. At first, he thought that Charles was just the least stupid one among the local ignorant people. Later, he realized that Charles was smart and studious, and he always had his heart in mind at every stage. An achievable ideal.

Hua Zhenxing has never been to school since he was a child. Deep down in his heart, he actually envies those Dongguo children who can study in school. The school that Charles went to since he was a child can be called a gang preparation camp, and Hua Zhenxing didn't want to go there at all.

So from the perspectives of Hua Zhenxing and Charles, what opportunities do they hope the world will give every child?

Xu Juan, the newly appointed deputy director of the Education Bureau, once made a statement that Mr. Ke agreed with. In developing civic education, the New Alliance can refer to the Dongguk model in many aspects and try to absorb the advantages and characteristics of Dongguk’s civic education, but it must also avoid its criticisms.
