对教育理论内涵、形成和发展的再思考

Reflection on Meanings,Origin and Development of Education Theory

理论是人们在实践中,借助一系列概念、判断、推理表达出来的关于事物本质及其规律的知识体系。教育生活离不开教育理论的引领和指导,教育理论源于对教育现象的理性思考和对教育规律的理性追求,是人们在对教育活动和教育实践抽象、概括和总结基础上形成的专门化、系统化的理性认识。当前,面对纷繁复杂的教育生活,教育界特别是中小学教师普遍存在漠视教育理论的心理。为此,有必要进一步思考教育理论的内涵、形成和发展,从而理解教育理论的重要性。

Theory is a knowledge system about essence and rules, which is expressed by conception, judgement and discursion. In the field of education, theory is very important to educational activities. It is through researching education phenomena and pursuing education laws that education theory originates, which is a kind of rational cognition based on abstracting, generalizing and summarizing education phenomena. Nowadays, a large number of educators especially teachers in basic education disregard education theory. Therefore, it is necessary to rethink meanings, origin and development of education theory, which will help educators pay attention to education theory.
