消除对赫尔巴特的误解

Removing the Misunderstanding about Herbart

传统的"课堂中心、书本中心和教师中心"通常被看作赫尔巴特的思想,其实,这是一种误解。在赫尔巴特的思想中,教学并非中心,至于说课堂、书本更不是中心了。他倡导的是经验和交际,教学是它们的补充。赫尔巴特不但不压制儿童,还非常尊重儿童的个性,提倡主动学习。

Traditional educational thought of ＂three centers＂ （i.e. classroom, textbook, teacher） used to be regarded as that of Herbart. In fact, this is a kind of misunderstanding. According to Herbart＇s thought, teaching is not in the center, not to mention classroom and textbook. What he advocated is experience and communication. Not only did Herbart never suppress children, he also held considerable respect for children and promoted active learning.
