论教育的生活立场

On the Life Stance of Education

教育与生活既有联系又有区别。教育起源于人类社会日常生活的需要,但是教育尤其是学校教育绝不是人类社会日常生活的简单重复,而是经过严格筛选的、被"提纯"了的生活。学校教育由于受时间和空间的限制,具有自身无法避免的局限性,这也使得学校教育和教学绝对不可能回归到日常生活世界,但是教育可以为个体在未来日常生活中发展的可能性提供准备,并且随着科技和社会的发展,知识的更新速度加快,为了适应这一变化,教育也终将成为人们生活的"必需"。

There are both relations and differences between education and life. Education derives from the need of daily life of human society. Education, however, especially the school education is by no means the simple repetition of daily life of human society, but the life which has been strictly screened and refined. Restricted by time and space, education has its own unavoidable limitations, which makes it absolutely impossible for school education and teaching to return back to the world of daily life. However, education can prepare the individual persons for the future daily life. And besides, with the development of science and technology and society as well as the acceleration of knowledge updating, education will inevitably become people＇s necessity of life.
