知识经济与教育创新

刚现端倪的知识经济代表着世界经济的未来发展方向。在知识生产和人才培养等方面向人类社会提出了新的要求。尤其人才开发培养是知识经济时代赋予教育的神圣使命。教育必须加大改革力度,加快发展步伐,建立新的知识传播体系,人才培养模式和创新教育体系,才能为我国２１世纪经济起飞和民族复兴、为迎接知识经济的挑战提供人才支持和知识贡献。     

学校教育功能与校外教育功能的整合

校外教育功能的载体包括家庭、幼儿园、各类社会文化机构及其活动。对于家庭教育与幼儿园教育,要吸收西方教育的先进理念与我国传统教育的精华,整合他们与学校教育的功能。同时,在终生教育理念的指导下,整合各类社会教育与学校教育的功能,逐步推进教育的社会化。     

教育立法必须回归教育的公共性

公共性是现代教育的基本属性,它要求国家主动干预,维护公共利益;要求国家财政支持,改善整个社会的教育条件;要求以社会为本位,维护每一个人的平等受教育权。由于传统法律部门难以回应教育公共性凸显所反映的社会要求,教育法应运而生,成为维护教育公共性的一个理性选择。2002年之前的教育立法,整体看是为了实现改革目的、实现"以法治教"而制定的法,缺乏与教育内在价值的呼应,不能发挥社会所期待的、应有的功能,在前期教育改革中出现了一些新矛盾、新问题,导致了教育的公共性危机。当下,教育立法必须回归教育的公共性,以教育的公共性为教育立法的核心价值基准,教育法各要素的规范也须考虑公共性的要求。     

The Tunisian Educational Reform: From Quantity to Quality and the Need for Monitoring and Assessment

The Tunisian education system, like that of many other Southern nations of intermediate wealth, finds itself pulled in opposing directions. While quantitative advances at different levels of instruction have been easily achieved, a reorientation towards qualitative matters is nowadays more than ever necessary. Reforms at the secondary level, and the perspectives that they open up in terms of an improvement in the quality of educational services for young people, will receive special attention in this article. Radical changes in the traditional status of school inspectors are needed. Furthermore, a new national agency for monitoring and evaluating students' outcomes and schools' performance is indispensable.     

推出教育债市优先发展教育促进国民经济可持续发展

优先发展教育是国民经济可持续发展的基础。教育的公益性和投资周期长的特点决定我国目前教育资金紧缺的问题必须要进行融投资创新，教育债市优势使得它在教育投入创新中的选择成了必然，教育债市将为教育的长期健康发展起到积极的促进和保障作用。     

近代名人教育思想述评

1840年鸦片战争爆发后,中国逐渐沦为半殖民地半封建社会,面对严峻的民族危机,中国各界有识之士表达了发展教育、富民强国、与列强抗争的强烈愿望,他们从教育地位与作用,师资建设,教育的内容与方法,人才培养等方面论述了自己的教育思想和主张,对于中国近代教育的发展和进步起到了十分重要的作用。     

教育治理现代化的本质、逻辑与基本问题

教育治理现代化作为国家治理现代化的重要组成部分,应归属到政治学、社会学、教育学、管理学的综合范畴。教育治理现代化涵括教育治理体系现代化与教育治理能力现代化,主旨为解决教育发展过程中所遇到的制度障碍、利益冲突、权力矛盾等从而实现教育强国。教育治理现代化的核心理论特质是新时代中国特色的教育政治学,依据教育规律和国情的顶层设计与实践探索是新时代中国特色应有的教育治理模式。正确认识与推动中国教育治理现代化,必须深入理解和把握它的理论逻辑、历史逻辑和实践逻辑,确立教育治理现代化在国家治理现代化体系中所具有的优先地位;厘定和阐明它的基本问题域,即为治理主体、治理对象、治理方法与过程和治理评价等要素及其关联。     

Empire: An Analytical Category for Educational Research

In this article Roland Sintos Coloma argues for the relevance of empire as an analytical category in educational research. He points out the silence in mainstream studies of education on the subject of empire, the various interpretive approaches to deploying empire as an analytic, and the importance of indigeneity in research on empire and education. Coloma examines three award‐winning books, Lawrence Cremin's The Transformation of the School: Progressivism in American Education, 1876–1957, John Willinsky's Learning to Divide the World: Education at Empire's End, and David Wallace Adams's Education for Extinction: American Indians and the Boarding School Experience, 1875–1928, in order to delineate the heuristic spectrum of the use of empire in educational research. These texts are put in conversation with the interdisciplinary fields of American, postcolonial, race/ethnic, and indigenous studies where questions of empire have received considerable attention. Ultimately, mobilizing empire as an analytical category will enable researchers, policymakers, and educators to establish new connections and dispute long‐standing views about discursive, structural, and affective dynamics at local, national, and global levels.     

论教育法对教育权的规范和保护

依照教育法的规定，教育权分为国家教育权、社会教育权和公民教育权三种类型，三并重发展是当代教育的一个重要特征。公民接受教育的权利，即公民受教育权，是国家教育权和社会教育权的综合反映，是社会经济和教育事业发展到一定阶段的产物。由于公民受教育权是一种社会权，而不是自由权，所以，探讨它的法律保护就成为教育界和法学界关注的热点问题。这需要突破传统的法理观念，采用新的诉讼方式，通过民事上或行政上的司法救济，以实现公民受教育权的法律保护。     

Creating profits by creating failures: standards,markets, and inequality in education

Serious questions need to be raised about the educational ‘reforms’ now underway in a number of nations. Research largely on the English and American experience(s) are used to document some of the hidden negative effects of two connected strategies of reform: neoliberal policies for marketization and neo-conservative policies for imposing national curricula, national standards, and national testing. The combination of these reforms has led to an increase not a decrease in inequalities. Among its results are the production of both a ‘thin’ version of dominant pedagogical and curricular forms and of the social privileges that accompany them.     

Education,nation states and the globalization of information networks

The rise of information technology coupled with the globalization of the economy has thrust the identity and sovereignty of the nation-state into sharp focus over the last two decades. Against this fast-changing background, the response of many countries has been to develop policies aimed at creating national information infrastructures (NII) - often with educational networking initiatives as an integral or pioneering element. Given the emerging global policyscape (Ball 1999) towards creating educational information networks this paper presents a comparative analysis of policy-making across Europe, East Asia and the USA. In analysing education networking in seven case-study countries, the paper emphasizes a political economy perspective; thus focusing attention on the role of the state and the varying relationship between education, economy and society. Having explored the varying motivations and objectives behind countries' education networking programmes the paper concludes by outlining an educational research agenda for future examination of NII policies as they continue to be implemented in developed nations over the next decade.     

Educational reform and the transition from authoritarian to democratic governments: the cases of Argentina, Colombia, Venezuela, and Spain

The transition from an authoritarian to a democratic form of government marks a turning point of historic proportions in the annals of any nation. This paper asks the question, during the first decade following such a transition, do the newly democratized nations demonstrate any common patterns of educational reform? In exploring this issue, pre- and post-transition comparisons were made in four Hispanic nations regarding the critical areas of educational finance, curriculum development, student enrollment, and the concentration of power. The author used a conventional field study research methodology to gather data following the transitions in Colombia, Argentina, Venezuela and Spain.     

论科学教育研究与科学教育改革

科学教育学是国际上近半个世纪以来在历次科学教育改革中诞生与发展的、具有交叉性质的一门教育科学。科学教育改革与科学教育研究密不可分。科学教育改革需要科学教育研究的支撑;反过来,科学教育研究则需要科学教育改革的推动。我国当前和今后的科学教育改革亟须科学教育研究的学术支撑,尽快形成科学教育学的学科建制,把科学教育学增列为教育学的二级学科;在大学建立更多的科学教育研究中心;成立全国性的科学教育学会,创办科学教育研究期刊。     

Learning motivation from a cross-cultural perspective: a moving target?

This paper investigates the relationship between educational achievement and the motivation to learn. We used the 2006 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) that contains representative samples from 55 nations. A strong negative correlation between educational achievement and motivation toward science learning emerged at the national level. We found that differences in the socioeconomic levels of nations are associated with this unexpected negative correlation. Children from developed societies achieve higher educational results but may tend to be rather critical in describing their learning motivation, and vice versa, students from developing countries do not attain very high educational outcomes, but their motivation, as stated on the self-report questionnaires, is high. We offer different explanations for this phenomenon. The motivation to learn in relation to the level of development of countries is a moving target, and this should be taken into account at all levels of education policymaking, from schools to national governments.

教育叙事研究的兴起、推广及争辩

20世纪80年代以来,叙事研究逐渐成为教育研究中的一个重要学术话语,并在研究方法层面得到了进一步的推崇和运用。90年代,教育叙事研究在我国兴起并得以较大的推广。教育叙事研究的适用范围有一定的限度,适用于人文领域而不能运用于一切领域;教育叙事不等同于教育叙事研究,经验的表达方式也不能代替理论的表达方式;教育叙事研究必须加强自身方法的建设和学术规范的训练。唯其如此,教育叙事研究才能真正发挥其意义诠释的独特作用。     

试论民族——国家教育体系的比较研究

民族—国家教育体系是比较教育研究的重要对象之一,也是有效解决比较教育研究的边界问题的关键之一。厘清比较教育研究中对民族国家教育体系的认识,界定民族国家教育体系的概念,探讨其与学校体系的关系,分析民族国家教育体系的根源,并且从谱系的角度对民族国家教育体系研究进行历史认识,有助于我们深入理解这一概念及其对比较教育学科的重要意义。

Educational Neuroscience: Its Position,Aims and Expectations

ABSTRACT

An important issue in the discussion on educational neuroscience is the transfer of thought and findings between neuroscience and education. In addition to factual confusions in this transfer in the form of neuromyths, logical confusions, or neuro-misconceptions, can be identified. We consider these transfer difficulties in light of the way educational neuroscience is positioned in relation to the main fields involved: neuroscience, educational sciences and educational practice. A distinction between educational neuroscience as part of neuroscience, educational sciences and as an independent discipline will show that different types of questions are asked within these different positions. Distinguishing these positions will also shed light on the aim and possibilities to transfer knowledge and insights into educational practice and will elucidate the confusions in transfer. While educational neuroscience as part of educational sciences and as an independent discipline aims to directly connect to educational practice, be it in different ways, educational neuroscience as neurosciences does not have this goal or possibility.
