Human Rights Education as an Integral Part of General Education

This article argues that human rights education should become an integral part of general education. The author discusses efforts to realise this aim within the German general educational system. She pays special attention to three areas. First, at the theoretical level, she examines how human rights education can be conceptualised within the context of general education and against the background of globalisation and multiculturalism. Second, she examines the political and administrative level, including questions of curriculum. Thirdly, she looks at the didactical aspect of human rights education. In conclusion she points out some of the implications for teacher training.     

感恩教育:道德教育的应有之义

无论是古代还是今天,在我们的道德教育中不乏"感恩"的内容."感恩教育"是道德教育的应有之义.在以往道德教育的具体实施过程中,由于种种因素的干扰,我们有意无意地忽视和弱化了"感恩教育",使"感恩"没有成为众多青少年自觉自愿的行动.正因如此,加强青少年的道德教育有必要补上"感恩教育"这一课.     

尊重多样性推进素质教育

近年来，许多学校表面上冠冕堂皇地高喊素质教育，实际上却依然紧锣密鼓地大搞应试教育，忽视学生个性的发展。深入推进素质教育的路在何方？作为一名在教学一线工作的中学教师，我感到问题的关键在于没有解决好教育意志统一性与学生个性多样性之间的辩证关系。只有改变“一刀切”的教育模式，向个性化、多样化和特色化的方向迈进，素质教育才会有美好的前景。     

Sensitivity Training as an Integral Phase of Counselor Education

A four-day T-Group was conducted conjointly with counselor education staff members and practicum students. At the end of the T-Group significant gains were made on the Barrett-Lennard Relationship Inventory, a measure of Rogers' conditions of a helping relationship.

Foucault and Human Rights: Seeking the Renewal of Human Rights Education

This article takes up Foucault's politics of human rights and suggests that it may constitute a point of departure for the renewal of HRE, not only because it rejects the moral superiority of humanism—the grounding for the dominant liberal framework of international human rights—but also because it makes visible the complexities of human rights as illimitable and as strategic tools for new political struggles. Enriching human rights critiques has important implications for HRE, precisely because these critiques prevent the dominance of unreflexive and unproductive forms of HRE that lead toward a declarationalist, conservative and uncritical approach. It is argued that Foucault's critical affirmation of human rights—that is, an approach which is neither a full embrace nor a total rejection—provides a critique that can be disruptive to the conventional HRE approach and creates openings that might renew HRE, both politically and pedagogically.     

和谐思想是思想政治教育题中应有之义

和谐思想是中华文化的基本精神。把和谐思想纳入到大学生思想政治教育中去是大学生思想政治教育题中应有之义。它是由思想政治教育的本质、和谐社会的本质和内涵、当前我国的社会经济状况、大学生思想政治教育的内容等多种因素决定的。它给大学生思想政治教育带来的启示是:应当把服务和谐社会作为大学生思想政治教育的目标;应当树立以人为本的理念;应当建立家庭、社会、学校和谐匹配的机制;各种教育方法、方式应和谐统一;系统性和有效性应和谐统一;应密切关注“四类人”,解决他们的实际问题。

试论全纳教育与人权

全纳教育作为当今一种最新的国际教育思潮,其核心理念之一便是:教育即人权、反对教育中和社会上的排斥与歧视。自20世纪90年代以来,我国已关注到人权问题的重要性。作为人权的一个重要组成部分——公民平等的受教育权,也成为我国社会发展中关注的焦点。全纳教育正是基于教育即人权的理念,运用人权观,从多学科的视角和方法来分析教育和社会问题,因此具有较为深刻和深远的社会意义。     

International Approaches in Human Rights Education

This paper was presented at a working group on Human Rights Education (HRE), organised by Volker Lenhart and Christel Adick, as part of the biennial conference of the German Society for Educational Research (DGfE), held in 2000 in Göttingen. In the spirit of the United Nations Decade for Human Rights Education (1995–2004) it contributes to the global discourse about HRE by summarising its foundations in international declarations and conventions, by discussing some examples for diverse approaches and conceptions of HRE and, finally by introducing some major obstacles or problems. The paper is part of the author's PhD project in the field of HRE and presents only an interim résumé of her recent work.

将人权教育融入中学德育课程之中

人权教育是促进人权事业发展的重要战略。中学生已具备一定的人权意识基础。在中学德育课程中融入人权教育关乎中学生作为人而存在的尊严和价值及其健康成长环境的形成。我国现行中学德育课程中的人权教育具有贴近中学生的实际生活和旨在推进中学生人权观念的形成两大显著特点。我们需要回归学生生活,培养学生自由、平等和休戚与共的人权观,形式多样、多措并举,融人权教育于中学德育课程之中,以有效地促进中学生健康成长。     

Human Rights Education and Training for Professionals

Although human rights education (HRE) has a long history, it has only recently begun to realize its transformative potential. A critical catalyst in this process is the emerging global ethos of accountability. Within this context, HRE can play a crucial role in the construction of a universal culture of human rights, inspired by a shared commitment to a humane order and a belief that human beings have both the capacity and the responsibility to make a difference. In such an effort, the training of professionals is vital, especially of those professionals who can influence public debate on accountability and governance. Innovative HRE initiatives, characterized by a commitment to experiential learning and to international and regional cooperation among state and non-state actors, constitute a step in the right direction.
