生命教育视阈下的老年大学课程设置

University Curriculum for the Aged in the View of Life Education

生命教育认为教育的本质是一种全面关照生命多层次的人本教育,生命教育不仅是教育的价值追求,还是教育的存在形态与实践领域。从这个意义上说,老年教育摒弃了世俗的功利目的,更接近生命教育的本质追求。生命教育视阈下的老年大学课程设置,应充分体现对人生圆融的追求,强调对老年人的人文关怀和心理疏导。

Life education believes that education in essence is comprehensively humanistic, concerning life at all levels. Life education presents not only the value of education but also its existing pattern and practicing domain. In this sense, education for the aged abandons the worldly material goal and is closer to the nature of education. In the view of life education, the university curriculum for the aged should symbolize the pursuit of life harmony, and attach importance to the humanistic concern and psychological counseling for the aged people.
