“兴趣”是儿童成长、学习最好的老师; “学说话、学识字”是儿童学习的主课; “形象思维、想象思维”的培养就是最好的智商开发; 既要顺着儿童的“兴趣”,重要的是激发、引导儿童的“兴趣”, 概括起来称作“启智激兴”。 12岁以前的儿童,是以“学说话、学识字”为学习重点,除有艺术、体育天赋的儿童外,一般应根据儿童的兴趣顺其自然的学习一些特长,切不可拔苗助长。现在3~12岁的儿童,几乎没有娱乐时间,被各种泛滥成灾的培训班、学习班所包围,全家人跟着忙乎,抓枝叶而放弃了“学说话、学识字”主业,使儿童失去了快乐的童年,最可怕的是儿童失去了学习的“兴趣”,“兴趣”是儿童学习、成长的关键。 学说话:就是要让儿童学习语言表达,这对人的一生非常重要,从语言表达中就能看出一个人的社会活动、生存能力。 学识字:就是让儿童多识字,这是儿童成长的基础,是今后阅读、写作的基础,更是语言表达的基础。 关于智商的开发:现在各类培训班打着“智商开发”的幌子来吸引家长的眼球,误导家长消费。在儿童阶段,“学说话、学识字”就是儿童智商的最好开发。汉字是象形字,通过学习汉字,使儿童建立“形象思维”,并逐步建立“想象思维(也就是抽象思维)”,如果科学合理的让儿童在成长中慢慢的建立好这两种思维,到初中、高中的、大学的学习就奠定好了基础。 《汉字学堂》就是以儿童喜闻乐见的动画片的形式来教儿童识字,以“兴趣”来鼓励儿童学习,以“兴趣”来引领儿童学习,幼儿园、小学生学习注意力不集中、不用心、不细心,都是没有没有培养好儿童对学习的“兴趣”,纵观每年考上北大、清华的学霸们,没有一个是靠家长的努力、补习班的功劳考上的,都是学子们“自觉的努力”考上的,这种“自觉”来自那里?来自“兴趣”!“兴趣”又是怎么来的呢?是家庭环境、周围环境有意无意的培养成的。我们要作的就是要有意识的培养儿童的学习“兴趣”,儿童的求知欲是很高的、是极其旺盛的,正确的引导是家长的责任,儿童喜欢动画片,家长就引导儿童看动画片,《汉字学堂》动画片就是寓教于乐,就是让儿童在娱乐中还可以认字、识字,就是培养孩子的学习“兴趣”。

Manim Tutorial teaches you to create the animated math and computer-science explainers you've seen from 3Blue1Brown — by writing Python with Manim, one scene at a time. And now an AI assistant can build scenes with you. WATCH + CODE, IN SYNC • Video lessons paired with the actual, runnable source code • The code highlights line by line as the video plays, so you always know which line drew what • One tap opens any lesson's code in the Workspace to run it and change it A REAL MANIM WORKSPACE ON YOUR DEVICE • Runs Manim (Community Edition) on embedded Python — rendering happens right on your iPhone or iPad • Multi-file projects with your own SVG, image and audio assets • Code editor with syntax highlighting, autocomplete, one-tap formatting, and light and dark themes • Export in the quality you need, landscape or portrait, then save or share the video • On iPad: files, editor, preview and the AI assistant side by side AI ASSISTANT • Describe an animation in your own words, attach a sketch or a photo, or point it at a file with @ • It writes the Manim code into your project, test-renders it on your device, checks the result and fixes what's off • Keeps working while you switch apps; a Live Activity shows its progress and a notification tells you when it's done • Every device starts with 1,000 free credits; more are available in the app A COMPLETE, STRUCTURED PATH • 23 courses that take you from zero to confident, in six stages: 1. Getting Started — Python crash course and your first scenes 2. Objects & Layout — mobjects, the coordinate system, alignment, depth 3. Animation & Timing — animations, rate functions, updaters, custom moves 4. Text, Tex & Color — text, LaTeX/MathTex, color systems, graphs & trees 5. Advanced Topics — moving camera, 3D scenes & surfaces, custom mobjects 6.
