再论“教育理论指导实践”问题——与曹永国同志商榷

Retalking about the Question of “Educational Theory Guiding Educational Practice” ——Talking with CAO Yong-guo

对“教育理论指导实践”命题的追问实出于对当前教育理论与教育实践相互割裂、甚或相互对立的现状而对传统教育理论功能观的一种前提性的反思。其意在说明:不能用简单的、线性的思维看待教育理论的功能以及简单地处理教育理论与实践的复杂关系。从曹文的反驳来看,当前发挥教育哲学对传统教育认识的前提性反思和批判的功能实在是刻不容缓。

The consideration of the proposition that educational theory guides educational practice is, in reality, the preconditional reflection on the traditional function of educational theory resulting from the isolation of practice from theory or even the contradiction between them. Its aim is to show that we can't consider the educational theory's function with simple, linear thoughts or deal with the complicated relation between educational theory and educational practice in a simple way. From Cao's criticizing article, we can see the holds the belief that it is urgent to carry out the educational philosophy's function of preconditional reflection on and criticism of traditional views of education.
