大学通识教育的生成特性与发展时序

The Formation Characteristics and Development Timing of General Education of Universities

通识教育是区别于专业教育的另一种教育,是对专业教育的升华和整全。通识教育的演变历程和与专业教育的比较辨析表明,通识教育具有"知识性"、"精神性"和"信念性"的三重特性。因此,在发展时序上,应遵循三个阶段:通识教育作为专业教育的预备阶段;专业教育作为通识教育的补充阶段;通识教育作为专业教育的引领阶段。

General education is distinguished from the professional education, which is sublima-ted and integrated by professional education. By analyzing its evolution and comparing with profes-sional education, general education has three meanings： informative, spiritual, believable. There-fore, we should follow the three stages on the development timing： general education is the prepara-tion stage of professional education; professional education is the supplemental stage to general edu-cation; general education is the leading stage of professional education.
