Drawing lessons

Dear editors!

Dear colleagues! Congratulations to everyone on Russia's Day! I understand that not all our citizens with their hearts perceived this holiday, that some call it the day of the Independence of Moscow from Russia, but, nevertheless, this is an important state holiday, and we will all get used to it over time, as our ancestors were used to once by November 7. Patriot must honor state symbols and holidays!

It is gratifying that shortly before the day of Russia, the president of the country instructed to return to the school the drawing lessons since next year. At the beginning of the current year, parliamentarians were given such a question, speaking about drawing the following: “ It develops a spatial imagination that will come in handy in any branch of knowledge. Drawing is the basis of engineering and design thought. Its study during the period of professional orientation of schoolchildren will laid the foundation for further technical, engineering education . ”

And in April, the Tula Governor Alexei Dyumin turned to the school with a request to return the drawing lessons to school to the head of state. According to him, such a request was voiced by enterprises, supporting universities and the engineers themselves: “ Communicating and being at their post in the developed industrial region: chemistry, metallurgy,“ defense ”, engineers, designers, technologists, even teachers of technical universities, supporting universities - everyone is asked to return to the school drawing .”

And then the final decision has been made. Very correctly, our youth must be accustomed to work and the perseverance of the stamping! After all, current children, who are sometimes called the "generation of alpha", live in the world of gadgets, social networks and virtual reality. 10–15-second videos in Tik-Tok-these are their “intellectual” food, and 20-30 seconds are the limit of their concentration of attention. Read the “War and the World” - where is there, for them it is prohibitively many letters. It’s even hard for them to watch a normal movie!

Not to mention the fact that these videos in Tik-Tok are recorded by the same minors-and great age-morons, like those who look, even if it would be wrong. But can, say, Kant’s philosophy in 15 seconds? And in a minute, and in five minutes you can’t! And what about Matan?!

Do not know how to think, who do not know how to concentrate children are a cross in the future of the country! Yes, they are good as ideal consumers who can be stimulated by buying something short rollers on an emotional level, but nothing more. You can’t cook porridge with such, you have to make it out with such! For them, then different foreign Chatgpt will “think” there.

Let the children suffer in drawing lessons, let them find out what a projection is, and how to draw arrows, you see, one of them will earn brains. Remember, colleagues, our country created nuclear weapons and sent a man into space without iPhones and tablets, people stood at the culmans, calculations were made on paper. Of course, there were no arithmometers, and computers appeared, but engineers, designers, scientists had basic knowledge and skills that allow us to work consciously and productively.

In general, in order to preserve our traditional values ​​and consolidate useful skills, you should add more old severity at the school. My grandfather told me that when he studied at a parish school (there were such elementary schools with tsarism), Pop beat the ruler on the fingers of negligent students, and put others in a corner on peas.

Of course, I am an enemy to beat the children with a ruler on the fingers or belt in a soft place - we are civilized people! But putting the duffers until the end of the lesson on knees on peas or buckwheat - this is quite possible. This, believe me, will be a great lesson for him! And, of course, it is necessary to completely exclude the use of mobile phones at school - not only in lessons, but in general. At the entrance to the school, it is necessary to seize them and issue them when leaving school, the school is a place to educate the future citizen and for study, and not to view various moronic and dubious videos, not to communicate in virtual reality.

The lifting of the flag, the performance of the anthem, the foundations of spiritual culture, the correctly presented lessons of history and social studies, the initial military training-the first task of the school is not even study, but the education of the future citizen and patriot, a person with healthy moral and political values. And, of course, this future citizen must be well formed, must be ready for work for the good of society, which, I hope, will contribute to drawings.

Your Ivan Ekonomov
