论高等教育研究的学科交叉范式

The Cross-disciplinary Paradigm of Higher Education Research

2023年是中国高等教育学学科设立40周年。回首四十年,高等教育学相继踏上“体系范式”与“问题范式”的发展道路,“学科交叉范式”很可能是第三范式。学科交叉范式表现出问题导向、交叉思维与体系化追求的总体特征,是对前两种范式的迭代,其在类型学上包括多学科交叉、跨学科交叉与超学科交叉三种形态。为强化学科交叉范式,高等教育研究需要实现三大转向:在研究主体上,从“个体研究”转向“集体研究”;在研究方法上,从“模糊要求”走向“操作规程”;在研究成果上,从“零散知识”迈向“整合知识”。

The year 2023 marks the 40th anniversary of the establishment of higher education in China.During the past 40 years,higher education has embarked on the development path of“system paradigm”and“problem paradigm”,and“cross-disciplinary paradigm”is the third paradigm of higher education research.The cross-disciplinary paradigm shows the general characteristics of problem orientation,cross-thinking and systematic pursuit,so it is an iteration of the previous two paradigms.The cross-disciplinary paradigm of higher education research includes multi-disciplinary,inter-disciplinary and trans-disciplinary three types.To strengthen the cross-disciplinary paradigm,higher education research needs to realize three major shifts,that is the research body from“individual research”to“collective research”,research methods from“fuzzy requirements”to“operating procedures”,and research results from“scattered knowledge”to“integrated knowledge”.
