从效率主义到生命主义:数智时代中国职业教育理论体系的反思与重构

From Utilitarianism to Lifeism:Reflection and Reconstruction of the Theoretical System of Vocational Education in China in the Digital Age

中国现代职业教育理论体系是在传统工业时代,基于物本逻辑建构起来的效率主义职业教育话语体系。效率主义职业教育强调“培训工人技能以提高工作效率”,在很大程度上满足了制造业经济高速发展对技能型人才的批量需求,但是这一理论体系已无法诠释数智时代的新质生产力需要。在中国,新质生产力这一表征数智时代生产力变革的中国话语,迫切需要中国职业教育重构一种生命主义的新理论话语体系。重构中国职业教育理论体系,要基于人本逻辑,转变思维模式,改变话语体系,还要从中国文化土壤出发,这是以职业教育改革赋能中国式现代化的题中之义。

The theoretical system of modern vocational education in China is an efficiency oriented vocational education discourse system constructed based on material logic in the traditional industrial era.Efficiency oriented vocational education emphasizes"training workers in skills to improve work efficiency",which largely meets the mass demand for skilled talents in the rapid development of the manufacturing economy.However,this theoretical system can no longer interpret the new quality productivity needs of the digital age.In China,the new qualitative productive forces,which represent the transformation of productive forces in the digital age,urgently require the reconstruction of a new theoretical discourse system of lifeism in Chinese vocational education.To reconstruct the theoretical system of China's vocational education,it is necessary to change the mode of thinking and discourse system based on humanistic logic,and also start from the soil of Chinese culture.This is what vocational education reform means to empower Chinese path to modernization.
