我国环境科学概论教材建设现状调查与比较分析

作为课程的重要载体,教材在课程建设和人才培养中发挥着重要作用。我国高校自环境科学概论课程开设至今,已逾三十年,产生了众多的教材。文章选取了其中83本相关教材,从作者、出版周期、出版机构、章节内容等维度进行解析,发现高等教育出版社、化学工业出版社、清华大学出版社、科学出版社、中国环境科学出版社承担了66.25%的出版任务;清华大学、北京大学、北京师范大学、南开大学、武汉大学、中山大学、厦门大学等知名大学多个团队出版了各自的教材,与各高校在环境领域的学科实力相匹配。党的十八大以来,结合新形势、新问题、体现学科发展新趋势的教材不断涌现,充分反映中国特色社会主义实践创新成果。但与国外同类型优秀教材相比,我国该类教材仍存在更新周期较慢、教材编写体系有待完善、编写团队延续性较弱等不足。为更好地服务于我国环境类人才培养,需要正视所存在的缺陷与不足,推动环境科学事业的发展和教科书水平的提高。

As important course carriers, textbooks play important roles in curriculum construction and talent cultivation. It has been more than 30 years since the course Introduction to Environmental Science was opened in Chinese universities and colleges, and numerous teaching materials have been produced. In this paper, 80 relevant textbooks are selected and analyzed from the perspectives of author, publication cycle, publishing institution and chapter content. It is found that 66.25% of the publishing tasks are undertaken by Higher Education Press, Chemical Industry Press, Tsinghua University Press, Science Press and China Environmental Science Press. Teams from Tsinghua University, Peking University, Beijing Normal University, Nankai University, Wuhan University, Sun Yat-sen University, Xiamen University and other well-known universities have published their own textbooks, which matches their academic strength in the field of environment. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, new textbooks have emerged in combination with new situations and problems and reflecting new trends in the development of the discipline, fully reflecting the innovative achievements in the practice of Socialism with Chinese Characteristics. However, compared with foreign excellent textbooks of the same type, there are still some shortcomings in this kind of textbooks in China, such as slow updating cycle, incomplete compilation system and weak continuity of compilation team. In order to serve the cultivating of environmental talents in China better, it is necessary to face up to the defects and deficiencies, promote the development of environmental science and improve the level of textbooks.
