Field survival training, using life-long survival skills.

Tuesday, February 25th, 20 18 65438? It's sunny.

A few days ago, a report about several children skipping classes caused me to think about field survival education: the safety of children is very important, but isn't the training and cultivation of survival ability important?

The thing is this:165438+1on the afternoon of October 28th 14 or so, Bailu Police Station of Hejiang County Public Security Bureau in Luzhou City, Sichuan Province received an alarm from a teacher that four students in a primary school in Bailu Town had skipped classes and their whereabouts were unknown.

165438+1At about 23 o'clock on the evening of October 28th, four children were found by patrol police near He Yu Road, Nanmu Village, Bailu Town, and their parents' hanging hearts were put down. At this time, it has been more than 9 hours since they skipped class and ran away from home.

At the police station, the police learned that four children had prepared field survival equipment such as raincoats, lighters, rice, fishing lines and knives before skipping classes. What makes people laugh and cry is that 1 pupils have a pot hanging on their schoolbags.

Later, I learned that the reason why four Xiong Haizi skipped classes was that they planned to make a fire on the nearby mountain for the night and experience a "wilderness survival". This reason for skipping class is ridiculous, but think about it carefully, doesn't the child's behavior cause us to think about education?

It is obviously not advisable for children to skip classes and experience the wilderness to survive. This not only violates the school discipline, but also has serious security risks. However, from the motivation of children skipping classes, it can be seen that the spirit of children's courage to explore is worthy of recognition. This kind of experience is what children long for, and it is also necessary from the perspective of cultivating children's viability. But from the perspective of safety, this is absolutely impossible for schools and families to allow.

In today's social environment, both schools, parents and management departments put too much emphasis on safety first, and many things that should be done by children have been stifled. Do we find that children's practical ability, independent living ability and social viability are getting worse and worse?

In fact, whether in Russia, Japan, the United States or western European countries, field training courses occupy a place in the whole education system and are an indispensable part of the syllabus of primary and secondary schools and universities.

Survival training in the wild is not only physical exercise, but more importantly, survival skills that can be used for a lifetime can be obtained through survival training in the wild. "The knowledge and skills of field survival, teamwork and patience, the ability and initiative to solve practical problems, strong psychological energy and self-confidence-all these' life wealth that people need' are hidden in the field survival training course."

In the eyes of American educators, the purpose of field survival education is to promote people's all-round development, emphasizing not only the growth of knowledge and physical health, but also the inner spiritual value of the educated and good communication between people.

The field survival course can comprehensively improve people's ability and promote their all-round development. At the same time, it can meet the needs of students' self-improvement, self-discovery, self-transformation and self-victory from the aspects of physiology, psychology, cognitive ability and practical ability.

This is especially true in schools, where children's activities are restricted everywhere on the grounds of "safety first". What is even more outrageous is that many schools even stipulate that students are not allowed to talk loudly, run, jump and fight even during recess. In order to avoid safety problems and take responsibility, I can't wait to simply tie my child's hands and feet before I can rest assured.

Off-campus activities such as field survival training are completely forbidden, and even activities such as sweeping graves and visiting some factories and science and technology museums in Tomb-Sweeping Day are basically not dared by any school.

In fact, our country also has clear regulations on students' practical activities: "Students' social practical activities are an organic part of school education and an educational and teaching activity that students must participate in. Every academic year, each student participates in social practice activities for no less than the number of days stipulated by the education department. Participation in social practice activities will be an important part of the comprehensive evaluation of graduation exams. "

But not many schools will seriously implement such regulations, and the most direct reason is safety. Relevant leaders of higher education departments and schools would rather sacrifice children's interests in order not to take responsibility for safety issues. One more thing is better than one less thing. Anyway, exam results and enrollment rate are their biggest concerns.

With this attitude, parents put their children's safety in the unshakable first place. Therefore, children's activities are more and more restricted, and it is impossible to allow activities such as experiencing wild survival.

In addition, all kinds of off-campus training classes and cram schools are popular in society now, and children's little off-campus activity time has also been forcibly squeezed out. How can children have time to participate in social practice activities, let alone field survival training activities?

Not to mention the ability to survive in the wild, even the minimum self-care ability is pitiful. Take a common thing as an example. I don't know when it started. Shuttling children to and from school has become a daily homework for parents, and schoolbags are always carried on their backs. Nowadays, it is essential for every family to send their children to and from school every day, no matter how busy their parents are or whether they have time. Every time I go to school, the school gate is crowded with parents who come to pick up their children. All kinds of vehicles are parked on both sides of the road at the school gate. In many sections with schools, traffic jams often occur.

Survival training in the wild is to cultivate the sense of daring to take risks and the spirit of being good at coping with challenges. This is very important for the personal growth of young people and can play an important role in different periods of personal growth.

No towering trees can grow in the greenhouse, and no swift horses can be trained in the stables. On the premise of safety precautions, schools and parents should pay attention to the training and cultivation of children's field survival ability, and don't always choke to eat because of fear of safety problems, so that our children have no motivation to tie chickens and have no place to stand in an increasingly competitive society.
