中國古代教育在中國文化中起著舉足輕重的作用。中國古代教育最早可以追溯到周朝中后期諸子百家的教育思想。古代中國的教育給人們提供了一個平等的發(fā)展機會，即使出身貧寒的人也有可能步入仕途。春秋時期，偉大的教育家孔子打破“學在官府”的陳規(guī)，私人學堂盛行。不同的學派通過學堂傳播他們的思想主張，出現(xiàn)了百家爭鳴的局面。Education played a vital role in ancient Chinese culture. The origin of ancient Chinese education could date back to the educational ideas of the “Hundred Schools of Thought” in the middle and late Zhou Dynasty. It provided people with equal chance for development. Individuals from even the humblest backgrounds could rise to a higher level. In the Spring and Autumn Period, Confucius, the great educator, broke the rule of learning at the government hall. Private schools prevailed and many scholars of different schools of thought spread their teaching in this way and this led to the flourishing and contending of hundreds of schools.

由于中國經(jīng)濟的飛速增長，中國與世界的交流日漸頻繁，世界上對漢語學習的需求也日益強烈。中國借鑒了英國、法國、德國和西班牙推廣它們本國語言的經(jīng)驗，從2004年開始，嘗試在國外建立非營利性公共機構(gòu)，命名為孔子學院，推廣中國的語言和文化。到了2013年，全世界孔子學院成績顯著，發(fā)展穩(wěn)定，前景樂觀。As China’s economy and exchanges with the world have seen rapid growth, there has also been a sharp increase in the world's demands for Chinese learning. Benefiting from the UK, France, Germany and Spain’s experience in promoting their national languages, China began its own exploration through establishing non-profit public institutions which aim to promote Chinese language and culture in foreign countries in 2004: these were given the name the Confucius Institute. By the year 2013, the Confucius Institutes around the world made remarkable achievements, with steady development and positive trends for future growth.

改革開放以來，中國的教育事業(yè)得到了快速發(fā)展，取得了引人矚目的成就。中國政府把教育擺在優(yōu)先發(fā)展的地位，堅持科教興國（revitalize the country），全面提倡素質(zhì)教育（quality-oriented education）。同時，積極推進教育公平，保障人人有受教育的機會。中國的教育成就反映在兩個不同的層面：一個是全面普及了九年義務(wù)教育（nine-year compulsory education），另一個是實現(xiàn)了高等教育大眾化（mass higher education）。教育的發(fā)展為中國的經(jīng)濟發(fā)展和社會進步作出了重大貢獻。近年來，為適應(yīng)社會、經(jīng)濟發(fā)展的需要，中國政府不斷加快培養(yǎng)各領(lǐng)域的急需人才。Since its economic reform and opening-up to the world, China's education has gone through rapid development and made remarkable achievements. The Chinese government gives top priority to the development of education, persists in revitalizing the country by science and education, and fully advocates quality-oriented education. Meanwhile, it actively promotes equality in education to guarantee everyone access to education. China's achievements in education can be reflected in two different layers: One is the popularization of the nine-year compulsory education; the other is the realization of mass higher education. The development of education has made significant contributions to China's economic development and social progress. In recent years, to satisfy the needs of social and economic development, the Chinese government has sped up the training of qualified personnel urgently needed in various fields.

近年來，隨著互聯(lián)網(wǎng)技術(shù)的發(fā)展，我國的數(shù)字化教育資源建設(shè)取得了巨大的成就。很多高校建立了自己的數(shù)字化學習平臺，數(shù)字化教學在教育中發(fā)揮著越來越大的作用。和傳統(tǒng)教學方式相比，數(shù)字化教學方式有很大的優(yōu)勢。一方面，數(shù)字化教學使教學資源得以全球共享；另一方面，它拓展了學習者的學習時間和空間，人們可以隨時隨地通過互聯(lián)網(wǎng)進入數(shù)字化的虛擬學校學習。這使得人類從接受一次性教育走向終身學習成為可能In recent years, with the development of Internet technology, the construction of digital education resources of our country has made great achievements. Many universities have set up their own digital learning platforms, and digital teaching is playing an increasingly important role in education. Compared with the traditional way of teaching, the digital way has a lot of advantages. For one thing, digital teaching makes global sharing of teaching resources possible; and for another, it expands the learner's study time and space to learn, allowing people to get access to the digital virtual schools through the Internet anytime and anywhere. These advantages make it possible for people to shift from one-time learning to lifelong learning.

His thoughts and theories had an impact on people in many aspects such as ethics, moral principles and rules of life. One of the features of Confucius’s thoughts is his emphasis on education and learning. In the relationship between learning and thinking, he believed that learning and thinking were equally important. He believed that, “Learning without thought is labor lost; thought without learning is perilous.” He considered moral education the most important.
