After the medical staff in Longquan were assembled, teachers and students lined up to bid farewell. Have you ever seen such a scene?

Education is a rigorous and meticulous science, with strict requirements on methods and scientific and reasonable schemes, in order to achieve the best results. Kneeling and washing your feet, holding your arms and crying, you will find that these ceremonies under the traditional banner are more and more unacceptable. Bowing in line to say hello is just a copy of similar practices before, and there is not much innovation or special praise. As the relevant commentators said, gratitude education or social practice is not based on the true feelings in a specific situation.

All ritual education is suspected of moral kidnapping and abuse of educational rights. In the private moral education of citizens, besides the true feelings and natural expressions in specific scenes, ritual education with mandatory orders is often used, which requires a cautious attitude. As independent legal individuals, students have equal personal dignity whether they kneel or bow. It is against the basic principles of education to cultivate gratitude consciousness in the form of dwarfing. What's more, in the case of students' overall lack of sleep, "letting students sleep for a while" is not only the expectation of parents, but also the actual humanized consideration for students.

Bowing in line to say hello, gratitude education should not be like this, what kind of gratitude education we need is an urgent problem to face and think about. The purpose of education is important, but the way to achieve it needs careful consideration. There are many ways to be grateful, and there is no need to adopt a unified template. The process of education is very long, and quick success and instant benefit can only be counterproductive.

On the one hand, the arrangement of the school is "going through the motions" and "doing nothing", which is not of great benefit to students. Simply put, it is formalism, which lacks substantive educational effect. This view has a reasonable basis. From the perspective of pedagogy, the quality of form will have a substantial impact on the content. Gratitude education is a kind of awakening education, which needs long-term accumulation to solidify cognition, form habits and make it a deep-rooted subconscious.

Only by making education scientific, rational and standardized can we realize the purpose and appeal of education and truly protect the rights of the educated from harm. Quality education is essentially a proposition of scientific education and normative education, and the quality of educators is more important and key.
