These two elements are intertwined and cannot be separated from each other. Moral education and teaching are akin to two horses pulling a carriagTeachers’ Lack of Preparatione; only by running side by side can they achieve the fastest pace at the forefront. The definition of moral education in the narrow sense refers to school education. The content of moral education includes patriotism education, ideal education, collectivism education, and labor education, in addition to humanitarianism and social merit education, democracy and legal concept education and scientific world outlook and life outlook education.
