适应与超越:信息技术时代的儿童教育

Adaptation and Transcendence: Children's Education in the Information Technology Age

当今时代,信息技术已然成为儿童生活的一部分。信息技术的介入先行扩展了儿童的智力空间,提升了儿童的自主性与独立性;另一方面,信息技术的过度使用存在着让儿童过早地从自我存在的自然状态中拔离出来的危险,也难免会导致人与人之间交流的弱化。我们需要在积极融入为信息技术所敞开的现代生活的同时,充分理解、接纳古典传统的当下意义,由此而寻求一种置身现代性背景中个体生命秩序的合理建构。在实践中,我们需要着力引导儿童重视实际生活,增进人与人之间的交往,加强儿童与自然的深度联系,以富于爱心的生活与交往为基础而合理地利用信息技术,由此而切实地引领儿童生命世界的逐步展开。

Nowadays, information technology has become a part of children's lives. The intervention of information technology expands children's intellectual space and enhances their autonomy and independence. On the other hand, the overuse of information technology has the danger of pulling children out of their natural state of self-existence prematurely and will inevitably lead to the weakening of communication between people. We need to fully understand and accept the current significance of classical tradition while actively integrating into modern life which is open to information technology, to seek a reasonable construction of individual life order in the background of modernity. In practice, we need to focus on guiding children to attach importance to real life, enhance interpersonal communication, strengthen the deep connection between children and nature, and make rational use of information technology based on loving life and communication, thus effectively leading the gradual development of children's life world.
