论教育研究的辩证方法论立场

On the Position of Dialectical Methodology in Educational Research

近年来,国内教育学界有关教育研究范式转型的呼声日益高涨,即从原先注重思辨哲学、形而上学思索、哲学运思探究的研究范式转向注重经验、基于证据、推崇量化的实证主义范式。这一呼声有其必然性和重要价值,但实证主义范式的教育研究只是诸多研究取向中的一种范式,不应作为主导教育研究的唯一范式。如何在构建中国特色哲学社会科学体系的背景下去思考中国特色的教育研究的方法论立场,是摆在我们面前的一项紧迫任务。基于中国特色哲学社会科学体系的教育研究方法论应该坚持"协同"的辩证方法论。与实证主义范式的教育研究所可能造成的"单向度的人"、"单向度的社会"、"单向度的教育活动"不同,以"协同"辩证方法论为基本立场的教育研究是敞开的。

In recent years,there has been a growing appeal for the transformation of educational research paradigms in China,that is,from the educational research that was originally focused on speculative philosophy,metaphysical thinking and philosophical thinking,and turned to empirical,evidence-based,and quantifiable positivist paradigms.This transfer has its inevitability and meaningful value.Meanwhile,the positivism is only one in many aspects of research paradigms,and it should not be the only paradigm of educational research.The positivism of overly admired in education research is dangerous,as well as it will force the original and colorful educational research into the situation of thinking deficiency and clarification deficiency.How to think about the methodology position of educational research with Chinese characteristics under the background of constructing philosophy and social science system with Chinese characteristics is an urgent task to us.The methodology of educational research based on the system of philosophy and social sciences with Chinese characteristics should adhere to the"coordinative dialectical methodology".Unlike the"one-dimensional people","one-dimensional society",and"one-dimensional educational activity",which can be created by the positivism,educational research with the basic standpoint of the coordinative dialectic methodology is open,which is mainly manifested in"listening"rather than"watching".It is a methodology of"democratization"rather than"concealed"democracy.It is a methodology of human nature rather than"indifference".
