Ask some high academic questions, mainly asking what problems I found in the process of cooperation.

"The defense and traditional cognition of our organization are not the same. The purpose of the school is to let students care about current affairs from an early age. The defense is essentially a display of project -based learning. ","

In response, Fan Xiuxi, director of the Tongji University Education Evaluation Research Center, told Jizhu Journalists that the school's quality of student quality expansion is good, but there is no need to adopt the form of the paper. As the school said, the purpose of the school to carry out activities is to inspire students to observe the society and pay attention to the process of studying and learning. It is important to cultivate students 'interest and hobbies, divergent thinking, and scientific spirit of participating in social practice activities. However, the results of the activity should also be displayed in a way suitable for elementary school students' education.

"The thesis defense is one of the educational forms of advanced segments, and has its own goals, procedures, specifications, etc. The form of educational activities in elementary school is too procedural, which is not helpful for improving the quality and efficiency of education and teaching activities. It may be counterproductive if it is not good. "Fan Xiuxun believed.
