Economic and social change have proceeded at breathtaking pace in China since the end of the Cultural Revolution in the late 1970s. Education has been changing, too, but I think at a much slower pace. I will offer my impressions of Chinese education and show two video clips of Chinese children responding to a new learner-centered pedagogy far different from standard Chinese instruction.
