关于批判性思维教育和高等教育改革关系的思考

A Study on Relationship between Critical ThinkingEducation and Higher Education Reform

批判性思维教育和高等教育改革二者互促共进。一方面,批判性思维是全球化、多元化、信息化时代背景下高等教育改革的重要目标,也是高校课程改革的必然要求,对大学生的主动、全面、继续发展和有效学习都具有重要意义,有利于防止高校课程改革仅停留在表面活跃的浅层次上。另一方面,高等教育改革推动批判性思维的课程化为批判性思维教育积累丰富的理论和实践经验,而且高校课程改革倡导的教学理念、教学设计、教学评价以及教师的言传身教等是促进批判性思维教育的有效方式。在当前我国高等教育改革积极推进时期,我们应深化批判性思维教育研究,加大国家政策支持,深入推进批判性思维教育,为高等教育改革做进一步的支撑。

Critical thinking education and higher education reform promote mutual progress.One side,critical thinking is an important goal of higher education reform in the context of globalization,diversification and information age.It is also the inevitable requirement of college curriculum reform.It is of great significance to the initiative,comprehensive,continuous development and effective learning of college students.It is helpful to prevent the college curriculum reform from staying at the superficial level.On the other side,higher education reform has promoted the curricularization of critical thinking.It has accumulated rich theoretical and practical experience for critical thinking education.Moreover,the teaching idea,teaching design,teaching evaluation that is advocated by the college curriculum reform and the teachers speech and communication are effective ways to promote the critical thinking education.In the current period of positive advance of higher education reform in China,we should deepen the research on critical thinking education,increase national policy support and further promote critical thinking education to deeply support for higher education reform.
