教育伦理学:作为一门学科的形成与发展

Educational Ethics: From the Perspective of Discipline Formation and Development

教育伦理学是当代应用伦理学或教育哲学的新兴学科之一。美国著名哲学家、教育家、思想家杜威较早正式使用"教育伦理学"这一学术概念,并对教育伦理学作为一门独立学科的理论形成做出了重要贡献。随着教育事业发展的深入,国外在20世纪60年代以来,教育伦理学研究日益得到教育界、伦理学界的高度重视,在深度与广度上均有所展开。在20世纪80年代,中国学者开始正式把教育伦理学作为一门相对独立的学科进行研究,一方面取得了可喜的成绩与进步,另一方面仍然存在一些明显的不足,需要进一步深入和完善。

Educational ethics is one of the new disciplines evolved from applied ethnics or educational philosophy. John Dewey,an outstanding American philosopher and educator,used the academic concept“educationalethics” earlier,andhe made great contributions to the formation of this discipline. With the further development of education, since 1960s, studies on educational ethics had been paid high attention in the circle of education and ethics in the Western countries. Since 1980s, Chi nese scholars had regarded educational ethics as an independent discipline, and had acquired pleasing research achievements. However, studies on educational ethics still need further improvement.
