教育的二维本质:培育生命自觉与以文化人

Two-dimensional Essence of Education:Cultivating People with Culture and Foster Life Consciousness

从教育的目的和意义看,其本质是培育人的生命自觉的活动;从教育的方式和内容看,其本质是以文化人的过程。因而,教育应是培育生命自觉与以文化人的二维统一。为此,教育中我们应该注重对"生命"与"化"的关注。

From the purpose and significance, the essence of education should be to the activity of fostering people life consciousness ; From the way and content, the essence of education should be the process of culti- vating people with culture. Therefore, education should be two-dimensional uniform of cultivating people with culture and fostering people life consciousness. So, we should pay attention to the concern of ＂ life＂ and ＂culture＂ in education.
