Evolvement of Education Thought in Li Ruifen Late Years

Li Ruifen education thought was time catching. With the development of the situation and the accumulation of knowledge, he constantly improved his knowledge of education. His education purpose evolved from ＂resisting invasion＂ into ＂saving times＂ then into ＂seeking truth＂ and the content of his teaching changed from teaching by the Classics supplemented with western learning to focusing on science and practicality. All this vividly shows the courage and wisdom ofinsightful intellectuals who initiatively got involved in the modern society and kept abreast with its development.
