中外基础教育到底孰强孰弱是一个争论不休、但很难有答案的话题。在这组文章中,我们选择了到国外访学的学者,从他们的眼中看国外的教育,看中外之间教育的不同;我们约请了曾在20世纪90年代初以“夏令营中的较量”一文引起国人警觉和争论,并长期研究关注中日教育的孙云晓先生,展示他眼中的日本教育;我们还约请了正在读高中的孩子,请他们各自介绍一下自己的高中及高中教育。我们希望从一个直观的、感性的角度展示中外在基础教育方面的不同点。我们以为中外基础教育很难说谁强谁弱,但它们的确还是有很大的不同。这不同的展示,有助于我们认真思考我们的基础教育,有助于我们建立一个更利于人才培养和教育发展的基础教育。 What is the weakness of basic education in China and the rest of the world is an endless debate, but it is very difficult to have an answer to the question. In this series of articles, we have chosen to study abroad scholars, from their own eyes to see the education abroad, look at the difference between China and foreign countries; we have invited in the early 1990s to “summer camp contest” Aroused people’s vigilance and controversy. He also studied for a long time Mr. Sun Yunxiao, who paid close attention to Sino-Japanese education, and showed Japanese education in his eyes. We also invited children who are in high school and asked them to introduce their own high school and high school education respectively. We hope to show the differences between China and other countries in basic education from an intuitive and sensible point of view. We think it is hard to say who is strong or who is weak in basic education both at home and abroad, but they are still quite different. This different presentation helps us to think hard about our basic education and help us to establish a basic education that is more conducive to the development of personnel and education.
