教育数字化转型的本质探析与研究展望

Exploring the Essence of Digital Transformation in Education and Its Research Prospects

随着数字技术的发展与应用,教育数字化转型对教育创新和变革的价值日益凸显。然而,不可否认,尽管数字化转型一词很早便已被提出,但教育数字化转型还处于探索阶段,理解教育数字化转型的内涵和发展方向是取得成功的关键。为此,该研究首先探讨了数字化和信息化作为两种不同的系统转型方法之间的差异,以从中透视教育数字化转型之“数字化”内涵;从创变的本源中,洞悉教育数字化转型之“转型”内涵;并在此基础上阐述了“教育数字化转型”的内涵。随后,构建了教育数字化转型的核心要素框架,从教学维度、基础设施维度、管理维度和外延维度分析了教育数字化转型实践的基础性场域。最后,从新范式、新思维、新能力、新环境、新资源、新应用和新文化的发展层面叙述了教育数字化转型的未来研究方向,以期能对教育数字化转型的研究和实践提供一些参考。

With the development and application of digital technology,the value of digital transformation in education for educational innovation and change is becoming increasingly evident.However,it is undeniable that despite the early introduction of the term digital transformation,digital transformation in education is still at an exploratory stage,and understanding the connotation and direction of digital transformation in education is key to its success.To this end,this study first examines the differences between digitalization and informatization as two different approaches to systemic transformation,in order to understand the‘digital’connotation of digital transformation in education;to understand the‘transformation’connotation of digital transformation in education from the origin of creative change;and on this basis,to elaborate on the‘transformational’connotation of digital transformation in education.On the basis of this,the meaning of“digital transformation in education”is elaborated.This is followed by a framework of the core elements of digital transformation in education,and an analysis of the foundational fields of digital transformation practice in education from the pedagogical,infrastructural,managerial and outreach dimensions.Finally,the future research directions of digital transformation in education are described in terms of the development dimensions of new paradigms,new thinking,new competencies,new environments,new resources,new applications and new cultures,with a view to providing some references to the research and practice of digital transformation in education.
