论教育的人性假设

On the Humanity Hypothesis of Education

人性假设是人的实践活动的基本理论前提。教育,不管是其理论建构还是实践活动,必然建立在某种人性假设的基础之上。人性是一个发展变化的现实的整体,处于不断丰富和完善的过程中,是实践生成的。教育促进人性发展的完整性与丰富性,应以人性整体生成作为自身的人性假设。教育乃成人之学,应合人性地展开。

Humanity hypothesis is the theoretical premise of human practical activities. Education must be established on a certain humanity hypothesis either in its construction of theories or its practical activities. Humanity originates from practice and is a developmental and realistic whole in the process of constant enrichment and perfection. Education develops the integrity and diversity of humanity. It must base its humanity hypothesis on the whole origination of humanity. Education is the science of leading a person to become human, so it should conform to humanity.
