辩论在哲学教学中的实践

Employing Disputation in Teaching of Philosophy

改革教学方法是提高大学教学质量的重要手段。选择恰当的教学方法能够有效地促进哲学课程目标的实现。辩论和讲授法均源于中世纪的大学教学,讲授法沿用至今,而辩论法则被遗忘。辩论依然适用于当代大学本科哲学教学,课堂辩论能够提高学生的反思能力、道德推理能力、批判思维能力与创新能力,提升学生对学习效果的自评能力。辩论选题、切中辩题、教师的总结对于提升课堂辩论效果有重大影响。

Innovating teaching method is vital in improving quality of teaching. Choosing appropriate teaching method can help teachers to attain the obiectives of philosophy course effectively. Both dispu- tation and lecture emerged from teaching practice of mediaeval colleges. Lecture was inherited, while disputation was forgotten. In my view, disputation can be accommodated to philosophy teaching at our time. Disputation in classroom can improve college students＇ ability of reflection, moral reasoning, critical thinking, creation, and self-evaluation of learning effects. It is important to choose a good topic, hit the point and summarize well in order to achieve better effects.
