Purpose The purpose of this paper is to describe the policy and trends in rural education in China over the past 40 years; and also discuss a number of challenges that are faced by China’s rural school system. Design/methodology/approach The authors use secondary data on policies and trends over the past 40 years for preschool, primary/junior high school, and high school. Findings The trends over the past 40 years in all areas of rural schooling have been continually upward and strong. While only a low share of rural children attended preschool in the 1980s, by 2014 more than 90 percent of rural children were attending. The biggest achievement in compulsory education is that the rise in the number of primary students that finish grade 6 and matriculate to junior high school. There also was a steep rise of those going to and completing high school. While the successes in upscaling rural education are absolutely unprecedented, there are still challenges. Research limitations/implications This is descriptive analysis and there is not causal link established between policies and rural schooling outcomes. Practical implications The authors illustrate one of the most rapid rises of rural education in history and match the achievements up with the policy efforts of the government. The authors also explore policy priorities that will be needed in the coming years to raise the quality of schooling. Originality/value This is the first paper that documents both the policies and the empirical trends of the success that China has created in building rural education from preschool to high school during the first 40 years of reform (1978-2018). The paper also documents – drawing on the literature and the own research – the achievements and challenges that China still face in the coming years, including issues of gender, urbanization, early childhood education and health and nutrition of students.

Introduction: One of the major nutritional mistakes committed by children and adolescents is snacking between meals. Sweet or salty snacks are rich in simple sugars, fats, preservatives and dyes, and poor in minerals and vitamins. Their excessive consumption can lead to the development of diet-related diseases in the future. Purpose: To evaluate the nutrition of children and adolescents with a focus on snacking between meals. Materials and methods: The study included 162 students from Bialystok schools, of which primary school students accounted for 30.2%, junior high school 38.3%, high school 31.5%. The questionnaire used by the authors contained 27 questions. Results: Regular meals were consumed by only 55.1% of primary school students, 35.5% of junior high school, and 37.3% of high school students. Two and fewer meals a day were consumed by 1.6% to 5.8% of the students studied. First breakfast was omitted by 18.4% of the students in elementary school, 16.1% of junior high school, and 15.7% of high school. Second breakfast was omitted by 12.9% to 17.6% of the respondents.Sweet products instead of a second breakfast were consumed by 44.9% of primary school students, 61.3% of junior high school, and 64.7% of high school students. Snacking most often occurred in the respondents' home (69.4% of elementary school students, 43.5% of secondary level students, and 52.9% of high school students). Water in school was drunk by 85.7% of primary level students, 56.5% of junior high school, and 51.0% of high school. The main source of knowledge about nutrition for 61.2% of primary level students was the family, while television, radio, and the Internet were the main sources of knowledge for 62.7% of high school students. Conclusions: The regularity of eating in the study group decreased with the studied students’ age. The most popular products in the group of younger students were salty snacks and sweets. Healthy snacking was observed more frequently in the group of high school students. The main place of snacking was the home. The primary source of knowledge about nutrition for primary school students was the family and for high school students the mass media.

For the past ten or more years I have used, at Grosse Pointe, Michigan, a method which I have found effective in improving the arithmetical solution of verbal problems by junior high school pupils. A regular-sized sheet of notebook paper is ruled into three columns by making a narrow column about one inch wide at the extreme right of the paper, and dividing the balance of the paper into two equal columns.

This sketch of the history of mathematics is intended for a junior high school audience, although it would not be too simple for a senior high school audience.

During the past decade, certain areas in the curricula of the common school have been relatively static while other areas have been modified, in some cases, to the extreme. In the first few grades of the elementary school one finds numerous changes that have taken place and are still taking place. Many of these changes are indeed significant, particularly in arithmetic. In the middle elementary grades one finds a diminishing of the number and importance of the changes as compared with those of the lower grades. Again in the junior high school much has been done to adapt materials to the needs of the age. In mathematics adjustments have been made particularly at this level. Yet in spite of the fact that the mathematics of the junior high school has been modified to meet the needs of general education, one finds the attacks continuing, especially those directed at tenth grade mathematics which has not been altered as much as the ninth grade program.

I argue for amazing values of the tradition of romanticism. I pay attention to connections between this tradition and the present. I write about necessary changes in reading romantic literature at school. In my point of view the most important is not to talk only about national values. It is really necessary in Poland. We must not continue to think that patriotism means only fighting with other people. Forming students’ national identity is one of the main duties at school but the romantic way of understanding patriotism has to be changed. It is very dangerous in our century. Many researchers also write about it. It is a very important problem of literary studies. I also present suggestions to work with Reduta Ordona in primary school and in junior high school. There are different ideas presented in methodical literature as well as my own suggestions.

The problem of mathematics is an important teaching method of students' core qualities cultivation. Statistics and analysis of The master's thesis related to "junior high school mathematics" and "problem posing" in the past ten years were counted and analyzed from chronological distribution, institutional distribution and research topics and other dimensions. The research results: ignorance of domestic research on the textbook content; formalization of problem raising under the the guidance of theory; the opposite direction of demonstration and qualitative research; fuzzy and superficial results and countermeasures of research. Research reflection: broaden thoughts of the field, attach importance to the study of textbook content, and enhance the expression of the teacher’s question raising; deepen the guiding ideas, reiterate the theory to guide the practice, reflect the complement of the theoretical practice; be rigorous about thoughts, attach importance to empirical and quantitive combination, improve scientific and appropriate research methods;  develop the logical thinking, focus on the study of results and countermeasures, and manifest the value of research results.
