《How Children Fail》
《How Children Fail》 是 John Holt 先生的大作。 几年前的读书笔记: Why do they fail? Because they are afraid, bored, and confused. The true test of intelligence is not how much we know to do, but how we behave when we don’t know what to do. The intelligent people, young or old, meeting a new situation or problem, open himself up to it; he tries to take in with mind and senses everything he can about it; he think about it; instead of about himself or what it might cause to happen to him; he grapples with it boldly, imaginatively, resourcefully, and if not confidently at least hopefully; if he fails to master it, he looks without shame or fear at his mistakes and learns from them. This is intelligence. Clearly, its roots lie in a certain feeling about life, and one’s self respect to life. The bright child is curious about life and reality, eager to get in touch with it, embrace it, unite himself with it. There is no wall, no barrier between him and life. We destroy children learning capacity by making them afraid, afraid of not doing what other people want, of not pleasing, of making mistake, of failing, of being wrong. © 2012-2023 by Yuming Si.
