试析外国教育史教材编写中的去语境现象 ——基于柯林伍德的视点

由教育思想、制度和实践构成的教育知识存在于特定的语境中。按照柯林伍德的历史观，历史知识包括问题及对问题的回答两个部分。而问题和回答都是发生在语境之中的。没有语境因而也就没有真正的知识。因此，在知识学的意义上，外国教育史教材编写中存在的去语境现象是不合法的。从外国教育史教材的功用即帮助学生习得知识和生产知识的角度看，去语境式写作不利于教材功用的正当发挥。提出教材编写应注意在连贯的、具有开放性的语境中描述和解释教育知识。

De-contextualization in Compiling Textbooks of Foreign Educational History

Educational knowledge contains educational thought, institutions and practice in certain contexts. According to R.G. Collingwood, it involves a question and its answer that both occur in a context. Therefore, no real knowledge can go without its context. The de-context in compiling textbooks of foreign educational history is assumed to be improper. This essay believes that the de-contextualization distorts a textbook's objective and role to help students acquire and produce knowledge. It suggests defining and interpreting educational learning in a coherent and open situation to compile a textbook.
