中国教育学科地位的起伏变迁与提升展望

Ups and Downs,Changes,and Prospects for the Improvement of the Status of Education Disciplines in China

回溯几千年来的中国教育发展史,教育的重要性历经起伏变迁。1901年开始实行科举新政后,学校教育的重要性被提升至史无前例的高度。自清末出现教育学科以来,中国教育学科的地位同样历经升沉演变。相对其他人文社会科学而言,中国教育学科地位不高。从近五届高校人文社科奖获奖数、前两轮“双一流”建设一流学科数来考察,近年来教育学在中国人文社会科学中的地位已经有了明显提升。未来教育学科需要把握学科特性,努力“内修功力”与“外耕服务”,使自身成为一门体系完善、研究深入、面向实践、贡献社会的学科,逐步提高在中国学术界的地位。

Looking back at the development history of education in China for thousands of years,the importance of education has gone through ups and downs.After the implementation of the imperial examination system in 1901,the importance of school education was elevated to an unprecedented level.Since the emergence of education disciplines in the late Qing Dynasty,the status of education disciplines in China has also undergone a process of rise and fall over the past century.Compared to other humanities and social sciences,the status of education disciplines in China is not high.In recent years,the position of pedagogy in China’s humanities and social sciences has been significantly improved,based on the number of awards in the past five humanities and social sciences awards in colleges and universities and the number of first two rounds of“double first-class”construction of first-class disciplines.The future education discipline needs to grasp the characteristics of the discipline,strive for“internal cultivation skills”and“external cultivation services”,and become a discipline with a complete system,in-depth research,practical orientation,and social contribution,gradually improving its position in the Chinese academic community.
