Zou Bingen: Students tend to commit suicide because of insufficient self-worth

Since the beginning of school, students have committed suicide one after another.

Zou Bingen, a member of the Standing Committee on Values ​​Education of the Curriculum Development Council, stated on the radio program this morning (1st) that students tend to commit suicide mainly because of insufficient self-worth. Academia and non-academic circles have noticed that students have appeared in recent years as "flatness" and underestimated personal value. At the same time, there is a fluke mentality, like leisure and dislike work, so I think it is necessary to add the values ​​and attitudes of "industriousness".

The Education Bureau yesterday (30th) announced the trial version of the "Price-based Education Curriculum Framework" applicable to primary and secondary schools.

He continued that many schools have added the element of "diligence" to the school motto or school-based content in the past, so they are not unfamiliar to the industry. The relevant values ​​help to hone the students, adjust their daily lives, and learn to learn diligently, which is better than academic work. Achievement is more important.

In addition, the new structure emphasizes that students’ national concepts should be strengthened from an early age to establish a national identity.

Zou Bingen pointed out that in the past, the Education Bureau wanted to promote national identity in a single subject, but the opposition in the society was loud. However, since the return, many schools have added teaching content to different subjects, so they think it will be listed this time. Incorporating into the framework is more helpful to fostering students' related virtues than instilling sex education.

The framework adds "industriousness" as the tenth primary value and attitude to be cultivated.

The deletion of the word "respect for human rights" does not mean that teachers can make professional judgments without emphasis

As for the deletion of the words "respect for human rights" and "knowing the motherland through critical thinking" from the new framework, and the need to learn "love the country and love Hong Kong" is added.

Zou Bingen pointed out that if the wording of the structure is more sensitive, there is a chance that the school may have concerns when it is promoted. Emphasizing that the structure is not stated does not mean that it is not focused. I believe teachers can make professional judgments when teaching.

The Education Bureau pushes the framework for values ​​education to foster a "hardworking" attitude and learns "Love the country and love Hong Kong". Yang Runxiong: Lay-levelism makes young people sluggish. Value education must be strengthened, including patriotic education. Values ​​Education Committee: It is expected that the curriculum structure will be drafted in August and it will not become a research evaluation method. The Curriculum Development Council will establish a new values ​​education committee to promote Chinese culture.
