新中产阶层与新课程改革的知识选择

New Intermediate Stratum & Knowledge Choice in the New Curriculum Reform

我国当代课程改革的知识选择与社会阶层变更关系密切。新课程改革的知识选择反映着新中产阶层的意愿:从注重学术性知识向更多地关注生产性、实践性知识转向;从重视传递定论性的知识向关注学生的探究性、经验性知识转向。这是倾向于满足新中产阶层增强自身创新能力、不断提升地位的强烈愿望,有利于巩固和增强现有新中产阶层的力量,有培养技术和管理新贵的倾向,对迅速壮大新中产阶层的社会发展要求响应不够。

There is a close relationship between knowledge choice in the curriculum reform and the change of social strata in our country. Knowledge choice in the new curriculum reform reflects the wish of the new intermediate stratum, i.e. a shift in focus from the acadamic knowledge to the productive and practical knowledge, and from the transmission of conclusive knowledge to that of explorative and experiential knowlegde. This tends to satisfy the intermediate stratum in their strong wish of strengthening their own creative ability and continuously improving their status, being conducive to strengthening the power of the new intermediate stratum, but it also has the tendency of fostering the new nobles in technology and management,and not paying enough attention to the requirements of the new intermediate stratum in their social development.
