高职教育发展的“距离”与“功利”

Distance and Utilitarianism in the Development of Higher Vocational Education

布洛的"距离说"和"功利说"是关于审美的著名理论,这个美学理论却被引申为教育发展理论的两种观点。有人认为客观冷静理性地思考高职教育发展问题必须要跳出教育,与高职教育保持一定的距离;也有人认为解决高职教育发展问题不能跳出教育,在无历史经验借鉴的情况下,强调只有融身于教育,才能发现和解决教育本身的问题。两者各有理论与实践的支持。但从宏观角度看,跳出教育看教育有更为广阔的视野,从微观角度讲融身教育看教育,有助于解决高职教育实际问题。

Edward BuUough＇ s Distance Theory and Utilitarianism are well-known theories about aesthetics, which were extended for the devel- opment of two education theories. From the point of macroscopic, education has a more broad perspective when is viewed out of education; from the perspective of microscopic, blending education with it helps solve practical problems for higher vocational education.
