先秦“致虚守静”学习观及其当代价值

The Learning View and Contemporary Value of “Empty and Calm” before Qin Dynasty

中国特色教育学建设离不开传统教育学思想及其话语体系的深入挖掘与系统梳理。先秦道家学习观主张致虚守静,而儒家则主张虚实相生、志静结合。西方建构主义认为,学习者原有的知识经验是学习的重要基础,利于学生创新能力和民主生活能力的培养,但易导致个体自以为是或以自我利益为中心等问题。了解中国传统与西方当代教育思想在学习观上的不同,对中国特色教育学的建设具有重要意义。

The construction of pedagogy with Chinese characteristics is inseparable from the deep excavation and systematic combing of Chinese traditional pedagogical thought and its discourse system. The learning concept of Taoism in the pre Qin period tended to be empty and calm while Confucianism advocated the combination of virtual and reality. Contemporary Western constructivism regards learners’original knowledge and experience as an important basis for learning, which is conducive to the cultivation of students' ability to innovate and democratic life, but also easy to lead to self-righteousness and self-interest-centered. Understanding the difference between Chinese traditional educational thought and contemporary western educational thought is of great significance to the construction of pedagogy with Chinese characteristics.
