What killed the Chinese child's imagination?



Recently saw a report saying that the International Assessment of Educational Progress organizations in 21 countries of the world survey of Chinese children's computing power ranked first in the world and the creativity is the fifth from bottom. Adolescence, creativity reflected in more imagination. The lack of creativity is tantamount to a lack of imagination. This report makes regret, we all know, China's level of education is far ahead in the world, many Chinese children in the country was flat, was able to obtain in foreign countries like math championship title. But the scientific contributions of the Nobel Prize is a symbol of little Chinese, and this is why? Imagination is a pioneer in creativity, no imagination of the science is not desirable, and only broke the shackles of routine in order to crash out of the spark of science, but the Chinese children had been behind at the starting line, it can not help but wake-up call.
Now we take a look at examples of online teaching on the elementary school.
A little girl to the moon likened to a long curved bananas, mothers believe that a child's imagination is very image of the very human touch, but another little girl says, "wrong! My teacher said, the standard answer can only be one book that the image of a boat. " I also heard at first hand had a high teacher will urge candidates to sue, rather cautiously, when writing, nor unique. In the endless preaching, the thought into large ones and standard answers are given a uniform, students begin to imagine where there is room for?
Children are our future. Sustained capability for independent innovation is a driving force for social progress. The availability and strength of innovation, of course, require a considerable level of knowledge-based, but "imagination is more important than knowledge, because knowledge is limited, but imagination is almost sums up everything in this world, which promote the technological progress, It is a source of knowledge "(Einstein's words). Just think, if there is no human beings since time immemorial "God into the land" to imagine, how would there be today's "Star Navigation" and "roaming the ocean floor"? Imagination is a young talent. If this talent is not to cultivate and continue, if the kids have already broken the wings of imagination, how can we hope for the future?
