Establishment of Jiaozuo Mining School from the Perspective of the Western Learning Spreading to the East
The Westernization Movement further promoted the spread of Western learning to the east,and Chinese people's understanding of Western learning gradually deepened in practice.After the signing the Treaty of Shimonoseki,foreign capital began to open factories and mines in Chinese Mainland,and the establishment of schools to train technicians as a means of capital grabbing.In 1898,the British Shangfu Company obtained the privilege of opening mining school by the unequal treaty of seizing the mining rights in Shanxi and Henan provinces,and planned it according to the Western mode of running schools,which became the carrier of the spread of Western learning to the East at that time.However,the spread of Western learning to the East is not one-way transmis-sion and passive acceptance,and the formal establishment of the mining school is not overnight.Shanxi Province failed to redeem mining rights,while Henan Province was accepted after several negotiations.In 1909,Jiaozuo Mining School was established in Jiaozuo Mining area of Henan Province,which set a precedent for higher mining education in modern China.
