从清华“钱班”到零一学院:创生教育理念探索及实践——专访中国科学院院士郑泉水

From TEEP of Tsinghua University to X-institute of Shenzhen:Exploring and Practicing the Innovation-motivated Education

郑泉水是我国固体力学与微纳米力学专家,中国科学院院士,清华大学教授、清华大学钱学森班创办首席教授,深圳零一学院创始院长。在他最近20年的教育与科研生涯中,发现大学生乃至中学生都有巨大的创新潜力,但即便是进入清华的优秀学生,也普遍存在迷茫心理和由此导致的动力不足。为此,他开启了一项跨学科研究课题——“以创新为内生动力来引领个人成长”,在师生共创和共同成长的过程中,他的教育思维经历了多次重大突破,取得了多项科学发现和技术创新,同时形成并发展了“创生教育模式”。该模式在清华大学钱学森班和深圳零一学院长期应用,致力于发掘和培育国家和人类可持续发展的顶尖创新人才。而创生教育理念不仅适用于少数顶尖学生范围,还可以启发家长、教师和管理者等相关教育者们改变教育思维,引导更多的学生跳出应试教育“内卷”的漩涡,对创新人才的早期发现与培养,以及发掘学生潜能、实现最佳的个性化成长,都具有重要作用。

Zheng Quanshui is an expert in solid mechanics and micro and nano mechanics in China,an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences,a professor at Tsinghua University,as well as the founding chief professor of Tsinghua University's Tsien Excellence in Engineering Program,and the founding president of Shenzhen X-institute.In his last 20 years of education and research,he has found that college students and even high school students have great potential for innovation.This paper showcases,through key cases,the practices and achievements of Tsien Excellence in Education Program of Tsinghua University and X-Institute of Shenzhen over the past years,illuminating a beacon of hope for an educational paradigm in the era of digital intelligence-education driven by innovation as an endogenous force for growth,or simply,Innovation-motivated education.The underlying logic of Innovation-motivated education prioritizes internal factors above external factors and genetics,fundamentally reversing the order of importance in industrial-era education.It is hoped that this paper will spark widespread debate and bold experimentation on how to pilot radical changes in future education and innovation.
