智能时代教育研究的认识论变革与方法论转变

Epistemological Reforms and Methodological Changes of Educational Research in the Intelligent Age

文章对教育领域的"三个世界"及其智能虚拟映射进行了认识切割,在此基础上提出了三个新的智能虚拟世界:代表数字化教育事实和存在的世界一’、代表人工智能教育认识的世界二’、代表人工智能教育思想和知识库的世界三’。文章指出,这三个新的智能虚拟世界是教育领域的"三个世界"在人工智能环境下的智能虚拟映射,扩展了传统教育研究的本体论假设,进而导致认识论的全方位变革。此外,文章还从认识主体、研究对象、研究范式、推理思维、知识表征等五个方面的变化,阐明了教育研究的认识论变革所引发的方法论转变。文章的研究有助于理解智能时代教育的过程与本质,并为教育人工智能系统的设计、开发与应用提供理论依据。

This paper made an epistemic cut between"three worlds"in the education field and their intelligent virtual mappings,and further proposed three new intelligent virtual worlds:World One’representing the fact and existence of digital education,World Two’representing the epistemology of educational artificial intelligence,World Three’representing the thought and knowledge base of educational artificial intelligence.It was pointed out that the three new intelligent virtual worlds were the intelligent virtual mappings of the"three worlds"in the education field under the artificial intelligence environment,which expanded the ontological assumption of traditional educational research,and therefore led to a comprehensive reform of epistemology.In addition,the methodology changes that were caused by epistemology reforms of educational research were expounded from the changes in five aspects of cognitive subject,research object,research paradigm,reasoning thinking,and knowledge representation.The research of this paper was helpful to understand the process and essence of education in the intelligent era,and provided theoretical basis for the design,development and application of educational artificial intelligence systems.
