根據(jù)人的資質(zhì)、志趣等實(shí)施教育、教學(xué)?！安摹敝溉说馁Y質(zhì)、志趣、受教育程度等因素。這是孔子最早實(shí)踐、經(jīng)后人總結(jié)概括而確立的教育、教學(xué)原則?！抖Y記·中庸》所說的“率性”（遵循人的天性）、《周易》所說的“盡性”（充分發(fā)揮天性），可以說是這一原則的基礎(chǔ)理念，它至今仍被廣為提倡，其要旨是：教育、教學(xué)在內(nèi)容選擇、方法運(yùn)用、目標(biāo)設(shè)定等方面，要適應(yīng)受教育者的個(gè)體差異，以期達(dá)到更好效果。這一原則得到心理學(xué)、教育學(xué)的論證，已經(jīng)成為現(xiàn)代教育科學(xué)的基本理念。

This term means to educate and teach according to people's caliber and their interests. Cai (材) refers to factors such as people's caliber and interests, and their level of education. This is an educational and pedagogical principle first practiced by Confucius, and later summarized and established by others. We may say that the core concepts of this principle are shuaixing (率性 acting in accordance with human nature) as described in The Book of Rites, and jinxing (盡性 making full use of human nature) as described in The Book of Changes. It has been widely accepted to this day, and its gist is that in education and pedagogy, the choice of subject matter, methods and goals must vary according to the individual characteristics of the audience if they are to achieve better outcomes. This principle has been corroborated through psychology and pedagogy, and has become a fundamental concept in the modern science of education.
