On July 19, Beijing officially launched its summer custody service.
In the past few days, reporters from the Rule of Law Daily have interviewed many elementary schools and many parents and learned that the contents of the school's hosting services mainly include tutoring students to complete summer homework, reading and exercising.
What content should be involved in the custody service is one of the topics that parents and all walks of life continue to pay attention to and enthusiastically discuss since the Ministry of Education issued the "Notice on Supporting the Exploration and Development of Summer Custody Services."
A number of judicial personnel and legal experts said in an interview with reporters recently that the rule of law education must start with young people, and through training and raising awareness of the rule of law, so that young people can develop the habit of studying and observing the law; the school summer custody class does not organize supplementary lessons, Without teaching new courses, it is possible to carry out education on the rule of law to students and supplement the lesson of education on the rule of law.
Summer trusteeship does not involve legal education
It is necessary and feasible to set up a rule of law course
At noon on July 19, in a bookstore near Suzhou Bridge in Haidian District, Beijing, the reporter met Li Jing who worked at a nearby educational technology company.
"After sending the baby to the school, I can work with peace of mind." She whispered to the reporter that we are a dual-career family and our daughter is in the fourth grade. Before the winter and summer vacations, I worries about it, or spend a lot of money to sign up for dances, etc. In the intensive training class, you can either bring them to the company and follow to work. The "officials with the baby" solved the big problem in her family.
The Beijing Municipal Education Commission announced in early July that this year, summer custody services will be provided for primary school students from grades one to five. The custody service is divided into two phases, each with 12 days, mainly for nursing care, including the provision of learning places, opening of the library, and reading. It is not allowed to organize discipline training and group teaching.
Ms. Xia, a parent of a student in Chaoyang District, showed the reporter the notice of the summer care service of her child’s school: The care time is from 8:30 to 17:30; the content of the care includes students’ self-study, completion of summer homework, open classrooms and reading space , Playgrounds and other educational places, organize students to carry out appropriate physical exercises.
Teacher Ren from an elementary school in Chaoyang District, Beijing, showed reporters the school's summer school curriculum: a total of 3 and a half hours in the morning, including moderate exercise, summer homework, reading, chess activities, eye exercises, etc.; lunch and lunch break 1 One and a half hours; a total of 4 and a half hours in the afternoon, including handicrafts, summer homework, reading, games, etc.
The reporter also interviewed some schools in Shanghai, Shandong and other areas that provide summer custody services and learned that the content of custody services is relatively rich, but none of them has set up a legal education class.
Then, should we conduct legal education courses during the summer trusteeship?
Many parents interviewed believe that it is a good thing to set up a legal education course, not only a legal education course, but also suggested that some emergency avoidance courses should be offered.
"It happens to take advantage of the summer vacation to make up for the rule of law education class, so that children learn to protect themselves and do not harm others." Li Jing said.
According to Qin Shuo, head of the Juvenile Court of the Haidian District People's Court, summer trusteeship can fully carry out legal education.
Qin Shuo has been the vice president of the rule of law for 10 years.
At noon on July 22, in an interview with reporters in the Haidian District People’s Court Library, she pointed out that the rule of law education is not subject education, but it is an imperative thing for young people and should be occupied in the summer trusteeship class. A place.
"Now that children have access to information, their awareness of the rule of law is getting stronger and stronger, and their thirst for knowledge of the rule of law is also growing stronger. Under this circumstance, it is urgent to guide them through legal education to correctly understand and exercise the law. Give them the rights." Qin Shuo said.
Qin Shuo believes that although children have an urgent need for education in the rule of law, they cannot be expected to put it forward. Correspondingly, the importance of education in the rule of law should not be underestimated. If the education in the rule of law can help them form a sense of the rule of law It is of great significance to form a code of conduct that adapts to this, so that they learn to respect others, protect themselves, and become a person who will not harm the society.
Yuan Zhijie, deputy dean of the Law School of Beijing Normal University and deputy director of the Rule of Law and Education Research Center, said that the focus of the construction of a society under the rule of law is to start with minors and establish their awareness of the rule of law from an early age.
The rule of law education is different from other subjects such as language, mathematics, etc. It is more of a course for the development of civic personality than a knowledge-based course. In this sense, “the rule of law course can be integrated into the summer trusteeship class”.
There are still shortcomings in the school rule of law class
Lack of general law education
As early as October 2014, the "Decision of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Several Major Issues Concerning the Comprehensive Promotion of the Rule of Law" approved by the Fourth Plenary Session of the Eighteenth Central Committee of the Communist Party of China proposed that "the rule of law education should be included in the national education system, starting from the youth, Primary and secondary schools set up courses on the rule of law".
The Eighth Five-Year Plan (2021-2025) of the Central Propaganda Department and the Ministry of Justice on Propaganda and Education on the Rule of Law (2021-2025) issued in June this year also proposed to “strengthen youth legal education”.
Specific measures include: educating and guiding young people to develop habit of respecting the law and observing the law from an early age; further improving the new pattern of juvenile rule of law education involving the participation of the government, judicial organs, schools, society, and families.
The reporter's investigation found that although many schools have set up the course "Ethics and the Rule of Law", there is a phenomenon of being occupied by other subjects.
In addition, the universal education of legal knowledge is also lacking to a certain extent.
Li Jing told reporters that her child’s school offered a course on "ethics and the rule of law", but it was not taught a few times a semester, and it was often occupied by courses other than language and mathematics.
Teacher Ren also said frankly that the class of "Ethics and Rule of Law" in his school is indeed not ideal: on the one hand, it is the problem of occupation; on the other hand, the school does not have a full-time teacher of "Ethics and Rule of Law", most of which are subjects. The teacher is part-time, and the class is mainly about morality and rarely involves the rule of law.
In Yuan Zhijie’s view, this is one of the current deficiencies in the rule of law education for minors. Few teachers in the "Ethics and Rule of Law" class in elementary schools have a legal professional background, and they are not very clear about the rule of law and the spirit of the rule of law. Smoothly carry out legal education.
Che Mingzhu, the prosecutor of the First Branch of the Beijing Municipal People’s Procuratorate and deputy head of the rule of law of the Apple Garden High School affiliated to Capital Normal University, found that currently primary schools offer "morality and rule of law" courses, and rule of law education focuses more on the construction of the constitution and legal system, rights and obligations It is necessary to increase the universal education of legal knowledge.
In addition, the textbooks used are all nationally compiled textbooks, which have problems such as difficulty in taking into account regional differences and long content revision cycles.
Taking Beijing as an example, it is difficult to solve the puzzle of the capital’s primary and secondary school students’ actual rule of law, and the students’ sense of gain is insufficient.
Che Mingzhu also found that the content of legal education textbooks and legal knowledge in teaching cases are relatively abstract. If they can be supplemented with vivid examples, they will be more attractive to students who already have a certain amount of social life experience and a sense of morality and the rule of law.
"Although the rule of law education in primary and secondary schools has achieved the requirements of'entering teaching materials and entering the classroom', there are still shortcomings and weaknesses in getting through the'last mile' of'entering the minds of students'." Che Mingzhu said, the lesson of rule of law education Urgently need to make up.
The question of who attends the class needs to be resolved urgently
The classroom format must be lively and interesting
"Summer trusteeship would be great if it could offer education courses on the rule of law, but the first thing to do is to solve the problem of who will attend," said Teacher Ren.
In this regard, Che Mingzhu’s suggestion is that professionals with legal expertise can come to the class. Non-procuratorial prosecutors who have long been engaged in legal education and publicity work can give full play to the functional advantages of the procuratorial organ, the advantages of talents, and the advantages of juvenile procuratorial work. Follow the law of students’ cognition, select typical cases around students’ perplexities in the rule of law, provide targeted legal education products and courseware, integrate the theory of rule of law into case interpretation, and stimulate students’ experience and resonance.
Yuan Zhijie believes that in addition to having political and legal police officers serving as the vice president of the rule of law, it can also take advantage of the large number of law school students in our country.
There are more than 600 universities in my country offering law majors. This is a very large team. Letting them participate in summer custody services as volunteers and offer rule of law courses will help solve the problem of insufficient law education.
Qin Shuo pointed out based on his work experience: In the field of juvenile justice, people who specialize in rule of law education, even if the public security organs, procuratorial organs, judicial organs, and lawyers are all included, the relative number is still too small to satisfy the needs of young people in my country. The actual need for legal education.
Therefore, juvenile justice work has never been promoted by one department. It must be the result of the linkage of multiple related departments and various social forces.
He believes that the entry of rule of law education into summer trusteeship classes also requires the joint efforts of relevant authorities, schools, and parents.
For example, the judicial administrative department and the competent education department incorporate the rule of law education into the scope of trusteeship services, the school and the rule of law education professionals (such as the deputy principal of the rule of law) take the lead in the docking, and the professional team will carry out the rule of law education.
In Yuan Zhijie's view, after solving the problem of who is going to come, the next step is to make the classroom format of the rule of law class lively and interesting in order to attract students' attention and enhance their interest in learning.
"You can't turn the rule of law education course into letting children recite the law. Such legal knowledge is of no use to children, and it will arouse resentment and increase the burden on children." Yuan Zhijie said, let children understand the spirit of the rule of law and the rule of law. The concept allows them to understand that the rule of law is a way of life and the framework of our common life, in which everyone participates.
For example, Yuan Zhijie said that their creation of "Squeezed Meatball Shop" is to let children understand why the rules are so important through trial and error, and let them know that the rules are made by themselves.
In practice, some schools develop the creation of rule of law picture books; some schools organize drama performances on the theme of rule of law; some schools organize students to formulate class rules, and disputes between students are resolved through moot courts. These are very lively forms of the rule of law. educate.
Qin Shuo suggested that the children can be allowed to walk into the court to experience the real trial, and at the same time feel what the law means; they can be allowed to sit on the "binding chair" and experience the dilemma they will face if their behavior is not standardized. ; It is also possible to organize children to participate in a moot court, so that they can feel the fairness and justice of the law in the mock trial.
"Teaching students under the third grade should not be too deep, otherwise they will not understand. You can set up interactive rule of law games to increase their interest in the rule of law, and learn a little rule of law while playing, such as not being able to run the red light, and slowly let They form a sense of rules." Qin Shuo said.
He also suggested that you can choose a school district to try first, integrate the rule of law education into the summer custody class, and gradually promote it after finding out relevant experience.
