Chapter 400 Dutch Educational Reform
"Italy's attempt to use the British Empire to counter the dominance of the French Empire in the Mediterranean will inevitably invite the British Empire into the central Mediterranean region of southern Europe. With Britain's super strength and rich diplomatic experience, once it penetrates further into these regions, Italy's own influence will
It will undoubtedly be further weakened. By then, Italy’s current and foreseeable establishment and means of squeezing out the influence of the British Empire will be nothing short of a fantasy.”
Italy's actions have worried many Europeans, especially people in Paris, but some people see opportunities.
On May 25, 1866, the Ottoman Empire and the Kingdom of Greece, where Italy had a certain influence, signed the "Memorandum of Understanding on a Three-Step Route to Accelerate Border Negotiations." Although Italy still had considerable influence on the Kingdom of Greece, the Ottoman Empire
With Greece, the status of the original suzerain and dependent countries becoming more clear, the relationship between Greece and Austria has taken an important step under the eyes of Italy. The two countries have reached the first step in the island and sovereignty disputes.
Italy is located in an area with very good natural conditions. Although it is surrounded by France, it is separated by the Mediterranean Sea and borders almost three countries on land.
France and the Austro-Hungarian Empire seem to be letting Italy develop on its own. The ambitious Emmanuel II is currently mainly because Italy's national strength is not strong enough.
At present, it seems that it cannot change the reality that the current hegemonic countries in southern Europe are Britain and France. They restrict Italy's development and Italy's hegemony is declining.
Political events occur every day in Europe, but to ordinary people in the Netherlands they are just reading drama stories. What they care most about is their own interests, such as the visit of King Emmanuel II of Italy to Britain and France, etc.
For ordinary Dutch people, this matter has nothing to do with them.
It's not as exciting as the news about the Dutch's presence in the Americas some time ago, especially what was said in the news a few days ago about the struggle between the Dutch East India Company and the Rothschild financial family, which has been hidden in Europe. This is what they, the Dutch, are like.
Matters of vital interest.
However, in the past few days, local newspapers in the Netherlands have been reporting on the country's education news, which has also attracted a lot of people, especially when the Minister of Education, Jeremy Harmon, frequently appears in kindergartens, primary schools, middle schools and universities in the Netherlands.
The figure makes people feel that maybe the Dutch government will take action soon.
As Britain's first industrial revolution brought industrial prosperity to the world, it brought a second rebirth to the Netherlands under the leadership of William IV. The old self-sufficient production model was broken, and cross-regional
Large companies began to rise. They organized the entire Kingdom of the Netherlands, the Far East, and even the Dutch territories in Africa and America into an organic whole for the first time: the railways that ran through the entire Dutch territory in the mainland and the Far East became the arteries of this country.
The space for activities of the Dutch has been greatly expanded. They are no longer satisfied with living in a small and isolated homeland, and have left to live in big cities. City people are busy watching with their eyes wide open and listening to the rhythm of daily urban life in this era.
School education began to accelerate, and school education also changed. Countless newly invented educational methods flooded the streets for people to choose and discuss.
It is precisely because of the improvement of material life that the Dutch have begun to have more expectations for the quality of education. Therefore, many people in the Netherlands have begun to expect the Dutch government to respond to people's expectations and make plans to improve the educational foundation of the whole people.
Since the Netherlands took over the Australian continent in 1863, Dutch capitalism has developed rapidly across the country. In order to adapt to the economic and political changes and development, education in the Kingdom of the Netherlands has also developed and popularized accordingly. After 6 years of primary education,
With years of development, secondary education continues to grow, and higher education is moving in a direction that is more adaptable to social development.
The rapid development of education in the Netherlands is spreading everywhere. Although the popularity of education has increased significantly, most of the education resources are concentrated in the local area. The development of secondary education in the Far East has been slow, which has caused headaches for many government officials and education circles.
At this time, primary education had gradually become popularized in the Netherlands under the mandatory requirements of William IV. Even people of color from other ethnic groups had joined this plan. This was almost the case in the territories under the jurisdiction of the Netherlands. This was true for
What an incredible thing it is for other European countries. After all, regions such as Congo, Konya, Tanzania and Madagascar in Africa are miraculously completing primary education, although the progress lags far behind that of the Netherlands and the Far East.
.
However, the Netherlands continues to do this. Obviously, many Europeans are puzzled by the Dutch approach.
At the end of 1863, the 8-year primary school system in Europe and the 6-year primary school system in the Far East became the most important school systems. However, the primary school system in the Dutch African region was only 3 years, which was far from the mainland of the Netherlands. The rise of preschool education began here.
A new phenomenon appeared in the education world at that time. The first kindergarten was established in Amsterdam in 1860. By 1867, approximately 8,000 kindergartens had been established in 25 cities in the Netherlands, including the Far East. The influence of preschool children in the Netherlands was increasing.
With the increase, early childhood education has also become an important part of primary education.
Public middle schools have developed rapidly since 1857 and have become the main type of secondary education schools in the Netherlands. The current public schools take vocational education as their main responsibility, and the curriculum is also different from the traditional curriculum, and many practical subjects have been added.
It provided a lot of talents for the development of industrial production in the Netherlands. Since then, the number of public middle schools has continued to increase. In just 10 years after 1857, the number of Dutch public middle schools increased tenfold from 50 to 1,000, and the number of students enrolled was increasing.
Public secondary schools provide support and guarantee for the Netherlands to train a large number of specialized talents.
The unequal status of education among the three parts of the mainland, the Far East, and Africa has also changed at this time in the past few years. At this time, the Dutch Far East is undergoing a vigorous education reform driven by propagandists and members of the education committee-
leather.
The "Renaissance" swept across Europe, and educational reform swept across the Far East and African regions of the Netherlands. At this time, education funding increased rapidly, and senior officials in the Dutch provinces also realized that education must be strengthened to adapt to the rapid development of the Netherlands.
The extension of the semester will increase the time for students to receive education, and the learning content will be richer and more adaptable to the development of society. However, there are still black people in society who are still ignored and oppressed.
