教育哲学与通识教育的跨领域融通之路——黄藿教授专访

The Interdisciplinary Way of Philosophy of Education and General Education: A Special Interview with Prof. Hwang Hwo

教育哲学是通识教育重要的理论基础。黄藿教授从亚里士多德伦理学切入道德教育,以此为基础深入探讨其中的教育哲学问题,并在专业社群中致力于教育哲学与通识教育的跨领域融通。从教育哲学的观点看,博雅教育具有历史境遇,在古希腊是指自由民教育,中世纪是指博雅学科,到现代是指博雅学科教育。劳力或劳心并不能成为博雅教育的判断标准。博雅教育是一个浮动的概念,从博雅教育到通识教育的转变,不仅仅是概念的转变,更是当代博雅教育的诠释。通识教育的实践呈现出多样态的教学内容与组织形式。
