课程评价:课程价值的创造与实现

Curriculum Evaluation-Value Creation and Its Realization

课程目的是在对儿童和课程认识的基础上,通过评价判断产生的。没有评价,就没有目的。教育的过程是儿童生长与发展的过程,教育不应追求自身以外的目的,所以课程评价不是在儿童的生长过程以外去找寻一把度量的尺子,而是不断地发现生长的问题,并为解决问题提供理性的价值评判。课程评价是事实与价值判断的合体,是课程价值的发现和创造。课程评价应起到发现课程价值、创造课程价值,并为课程价值的实现"保驾护航"的作用:通过价值判断确立目的,预测和评判什么样的经验符合儿童的生长需要;在课程实施的过程中检验已经实施的课程是否满足了儿童的需要;通过比较、判断,在诸多可能性中作出理性的抉择;为课程的改进提供价值指导。

The curriculum objective is built in a process of a series of assessments and judgments on the basis of the knowledge and faith about the relation between children and curriculum. If there is no assessment,then there is no purpose. The process of education is as similar as the process of children's growth and development,moreover,education should not seek its objective outside itself. Therefore the standard of curriculum assessment is not outside the process of children's growth. In other words,the task of curriculum assessment is to discover problems with children's growth,as well as offer the assessments and judgments to solve these problems in a rational manner. Curriculum evaluation should discover value,create value and'escort'for realizing the value,-it should not only establish the objective but also forecast and judge what kind of experience may meet children's needs of growth; it should evaluate whether the curriculum meets the needs of children; it should make rational choices by comparing,judging,assessing the curriculum value; it should provide the value guidance for the improvement of the curriculum.
