摘要:儿童教育的功利化、成人化、割裂化扭曲了儿童教育本身应该具有的特质、功能和意义,其本质原因在于儿童教育陷入“标签”困境。文章对儿童教育的现状进行审视,发现其标签困境体现在儿童成长与成才的矛盾、成人压制管教与儿童解放天性的矛盾、成人教育与儿童教育割裂的矛盾等方面。为了解决这一问题,文章基于陶行知教育思想提出了教育内容与儿童生活紧密联系,以多元评价替代单一标签化;通过“生活·实践”教育环境的创设激发儿童的潜能和兴趣,回归教育本质;通过课程设置和教育活动促进儿童全面发展的儿童教育本源回归策略。
Abstract: The utilitarianisation,adultisation and fragmentation of children's education have distorted the qualities, functions and meanings that children's education should be, and the essential reason for this is that children's education has fallen into the dilemma of labelling. The research examines the current situation of children's education and finds that the dilemma of labelling is embodied in the contradiction between children's growth and success, the contradiction between adults’suppression and children's emancipation, and the contradiction between adult education and children's education. In order to solve this problem, based on Tao Xingzhi’s educational thought, the research puts forward the strategy of returning to the origin of children's education by closely linking the educational content with children's lives, replacing single labelling with multiple evaluation; returning to the essence of education by stimulating children's potential and interest through the creation of life-practice educational environments; and promoting children's all-round development through curricula and educational activities.
