As an important driving force for economic and social development, education signifies the progress and prosperity of human civilization. In the course of human history, education undertakes an irreplaceable obligation and plays a vital role. The Great Learning, a Chinese ancient classic written as early as 2 000 years ago, advocates that the aim of great learning lies in the illustration of human virtues, the remoulding of people, and the pursuit of perfection. This educational thought has been handed down over generations for thousands of years, demonstrating its vigorous vitality up till now.
