The Ministry of Education encourages students to learn independently and provides relevant guiding principles and resources to support students' learning development and the cultivation of self-learning ability. The following are some practices of the Ministry of Education to promote self-directed learning:

1. Establishing learning-oriented courses: The Ministry of Education encourages schools and teachers to design learning-oriented courses, encourages students to actively participate in learning and bring up the ability and interest in self-directed learning.

2. Development of teaching materials and resources: The Ministry of Education is committed to develop high-quality teaching materials and learning resources including textbooks, digital learning resources, etc., providing for use by students to support their independent learning.

3. Providing study guidelines: The Ministry of Education has issued a series of study guiding principles for students and parents reference to help them learn better independently including guidance on the aspect of time management and learning methods, etc.

4. Promoting online learning platforms: The Ministry of Education promotes online learning platforms to provide students with abundant online teaching resources and courses. Students can choose their own learning courses that suit them for self-study.

5. Hosting study competitions and events: The Ministry of Education organizes various learning competitions and activities to encourage students to participate actively, stimulate learning motivation and interest, and further develop self-learning ability.

The Ministry of Education's promotion aims to guide students from being passive education to active learners, cultivate students' self-learning ability and motivation, also improve students' learning outcomes and achievements. Students can use these resources and guiding principles for self-directed learning based on their own interests and needs, and constantly improve their learning ability and knowledge level.

For students to conduct independent learning during the summer vacation, they can make the most of their precious time to improve their learning ability and knowledge level. Here are some suggestions from me as a school teacher:

1. Making study plan: Create a daily study plan including the subjects/contents to be studied each day, time arrangement, etc. This can help you organize your study time and ensure you meet your study goals.

2. Reading books: Choose some books you are interested in and read books of various genres and subjects can broaden knowledge and build reading and thinking skills. You can choose some classic literary works, popular science books, self-growth books, etc.

3. Extracurricular activities: Take part in some extracurricular activities, such as summer camps, volunteer activities, etc. These activities can enhance your social experience and foster teamwork and leadership skills.

4. Online learning resources: Self-directed learning by using internet resources. There are a lot of free online courses and learning platforms to choose from.

5. Practice and application: Besides acquiring knowledge, also apply what you have learned to practice. Knowledge can be transformed into practical abilities through problem solving, project practice, mock exams, etc.,

6. Develop interests: Use the time of summer vacation to develop your own interests and hobbies. Whether studying music, painting, sports, or any other interest can make your summer fun and enriching.

Whichever way you choose for self-directed learning, the important is maintain a positive attitude towards learning and a persistent learning spirit. Wishing the children a meaningful summer vacation!
