追寻历史教育的本义——兼论历史课程标准的功能

Explore the Intention of History Education ——With a Discussion on the Function of History Curriculum Standards

正在进行的基础教育历史课程改革必然是一个深刻而持久的过程。当前在取得可喜进步的同时，仍然存在着一些不容忽视的问题。借鉴国外的相关研究成果及经验教训，我国的学校历史课程改革亟待解决“历史教育的本义是什么?”的问题，即今后应当在历史课程功能(公民教育)、历史课程性质(人格教育)、历史课程学习方式(自主学习)三方面有较大突破。

The current ongoing reform of history curriculum must be a long-lasting job. There are still some problems remained to be solved, while we are making some remarkable progress. Using the experience and lessons and also the achievements of other countries, our national reform on history course should make it clear 'What is the intention of history education?' . Therefore, break-throughs should be made in the three respects of future history course, which are the function of history course (citizen education), nature of history course (personality education), learning style of history course (autonomous learning).
