数学教育研究之合理定位与若干论题

Orientation of Researches in Mathematics Education

相对于具体论题的研究而言,应当更加关注数学教育研究的合理定位.就当前而言,这就是指:放眼世界,立足本土;注重理念,聚焦改革.所谓“放眼世界”,是指应当高度关注数学教育的国际进展.所谓“注重理念,聚焦改革”,即是指数学教育的理论研究应当密切联系数学教育的实际活动.国际比较研究,理论研究与教学实践的关系,数学课程改革,知识面的必要拓宽与聚焦,研究工作的自觉性等论题应引起数学教育工作者的关注.

In comparison with concrete studies, more attentions should be paid to the orientation of researches in mathematics education. We should take a global view, stand on our own land, emphasize basic ideas and focus on reforms. This position was clarified by analysis about the following topics: comparative studies of mathematics education, the relationship between theoretical studies and teaching practice, reforms of mathematics education, the necessary extension and re-organization of knowledge, and the consciousness of researches.
