高等教育学科的历史争论、建设反思和未来发展

The Research on Higher Education Discipline's Historical Debate,Construction Reflection and Future Development

回顾我国高等教育学发展的三次争论可以发现,学界对高等教育学科的认识逐渐深入,从讨论高等教育是否是学科演进到提出了高等教育既可以是学科,也可以是研究领域,再到探讨如何努力使高等教育学发展为一级学科。当前高等教育学在主题选择、研究范式、理论建设指向以及机构发展等方面遭遇发展瓶颈,为促进高等教育学科再发展,可以采取强化学术共同体建设、注重微观研究、坚持多元研究范式,聚焦基本理论建设,推进高教研究机构分类发展等有效策略。

Reviewing the three debates in the development of higher education discipline in China,we can find that the knowledge of higher education is gradually deepened in that our discussion about higher education has been shifted from "whether higher education is a discipline " to "the higher education is both a discipline and a researching field",and then to "how can higher education develop into a a first-grade discipline". At present,higher education discipline has encountered developmental bottlenecks, such as topic selection, research paradigm, theoretical construction orientation and institutional development. In the future, we should strengthen the construction of the academic community,focus on the micro research,adhere to the multi-research paradigm,focus on the basic theory construction and to promote the classification and development of the institutions,in order to promote the redevelopment of the subject.
