Abstract

As a miracle in the history of education in China and even in the world, Southwest Associated University has far-reaching influence on its spiritual connotation and educational model. Southwest Associated University has experienced the baptism of war, but it still cultivated many talents and masters for China. In the process of running a school in Southwest Associated University, the school has a clear purpose of running a school, a variety of teaching styles, a high degree of academic freedom, innovation and pragmatism. And students can combine work, study and research, learn from each other, and have an excellent learning atmosphere. Today's education in China needs to learn the spirit of Southwest Associated University, including education model, teaching style, free spirit and so on. Based on the exploration and thinking of "teaching and learning" of Southwest Associated University, this paper puts forward some opinions on the improvement of current education model and the inheritance of education concept. The three most important points are the unity of education and education, the inheritance of educational concepts, and the call for freedom. More importantly, we need to learn from Southwest Associated University to keep up with the social trend, to cultivate people who really need it and a long-term educational vision for the society. This paper hope that we can develop today's education by learning from the education of Southwest Associated University.
