学术研究中的“问题”

An Inquiry into Academic Subjects

追问是人类的高贵天性,“问题意识”是学术研究的生命和灵魂,层出不穷的“问题”指示文明发展的路标和方向。人类产生疑问的原因和条件是复杂的,疑问的内容和表达方式是丰富的。科学研究的“七个W”问题。体现了科学面对事物的基本态度和方法,是科学精神的具体体现,也是学术文化的基石,并确定了学术研究的基本视角。可以从原始和二手、有解和无解、辩论和研究、学习和探索、已知和未知、意义和价值等方面来考察学术问题的类型和性质。

Making inquiry is a noble quality of human being. The sense of questioning is the soul of academic work. The stratus of problems indicates the route sign and direction of the development of civilization. The reasons and conditions that people make query are rather complicated. The contents of query and the ways to express query are abundant. The seven Ws, namely What, How,Why, Who, Where, When and Would in scientific research, embody the fundamental attitude of science to the world and the basic way of science in dealing with things. These 7 Ws not only specify the spirit of science, but also laid the foundation of academic culture and set the primary angles of academic study. Considering the natures and types of academic subjects, we can inspect them from a bilateral frame of being firsthand or secondhand, resoluble or insoluble, debating or researching, studying or exploring, known or unknown, implication or significance.
