保持理性与非理性的张力——对课程观的认识论思考

Keep the Strain of the Rationality and Irrationality: an Epistemological Thinking on the Viewpoint of Curriculum

批判课程观是非理性思维模式下的课程思想。尽管它能展现生活意义、理解与体验的价值等富有人性意味的主题,但其模糊性和不确定性决定了其自身难以克服的发展局限。而理性主义课程观尽管因其工具性和极权性遭到猛烈的攻击和批判,但其难以替代的贡献和优越性也决定了它在历史舞台的一席之地。事实上,理性与非理性不管是在理论建设中,还是在实践中都有天然的张力,保持这种张力是课程理解和改革中重要的科学、辩证的认识论思想。

The viewpoint of criticism curriculum is the idea with the irrational thinking pattern. Although it can exhibit the human theme on the meaning of life and of understanding, and the value of experience and stuff, its illegibility and uncertainty decide that it can no longer conquer the development limitations of its own. The viewpoint of the rationalist curriculum suffers from a severe attack and criticism for its own totalitarian nature and nature as a tool, but its non-substituted contribution and superiority determine its historic status. In fact, rationality and irrationality contain inborn strains in both constructing theory and practice. Keeping their strains is a sort of important scientific and dialectic epistemology in comprehending and reforming curriculum.
