杜威道德教育理论及对高校德育工作的启示

The Enlightenment of Dewey Moral Education Theory on Moral Education of Colleges and Universities in China

杜威的"教育即生活"、"学校即社会"等教育观点已经被中国广大教育工作者所了解,但是他的道德教育理论在我国教育界却没有引起足够的重视。实际上,杜威对道德教育的核心问题曾深入进行过探讨,主张道德教育必须贯穿于学校教育的全过程。笔者对杜威道德教育思想的重要理论、主要内涵和现实意义进行阐释,以便发挥其对当前高校德育的积极作用。

The view proposed by John Dewey is that while education is life and college is society, stud- y should be acquired from practice. In fact, his education theory stressed on individual development, the understanding of external thing and knowledge acquired from practice, which exerted an great influ- ence on the society at that time. Although his view that education is life and college is society is well understood by Chinese educators, yet his moral education theory has not been attached great impor- tance in China. The truth is that John Dewey had once explored the core issue of moral education and proposed that moral education should be implemented throughout the whole school education. This pa- per intends to further explore Dewey moral education theory, its implication and practical significance so as to fully play its positive role in current moral education of colleges and universities.
