Research On Teaching Values In The Perspective Of Ecologism

Teaching activities that people engage in are all guided by certain teaching values. But teaching values are not the same in different historical periods.The root cause for the changes of teaching values is the variation of the assumption of human nature. Different assumption of human nature leads to different teaching values.Due to the one-sidedness of traditional assumptions of human nature,the teaching values corresponding with them also display a character of one-sidedness.Concretely speaking,the teaching purpose is one-sided,single;the teaching content dissevers the sciences and humanities;the teaching process emphasizes advanced designs and despises generation;the teaching evaluation emphasizes unified and static,despises differences and generation;the relationship of teacher-student is the pattern of "I and it ".This eventually caused the failure of the harmonious coexistence in between the human,society and the nature.It should be rectified.The fundamental method should be transferring the assumption of human nature and furthermore promoting the transformation of teaching values.Ecologism thoughts thus emerge against the era.According to its assumption of human nature,human are ecological.They are the product of complex ecosystem of "human,society and nature".It requires that,harmony coexists in between humans, society and the nature;people not only use the system as a whole way of thinking,but also follow the principles of democratic equality and diversity,and learn how to use dynamically generated perspective to think when they start to ponder over the problems.Correspondingly,it is necessary to establish the ecological teaching values, namely,the teaching purpose is to raise ecological rationality;the teaching content is humanistic orientation of ecological science;the teaching process is a combination of the advanced designs and generated;the teaching evaluation should follow the principles of diversity and dynamically generated;the teacher-student relationship is a type of "I and you".Finally the harmonious coexistence in between the human,society and the nature can be achieved.The full text has five parts:First,the foreword introduces the reason of this study,the meaning,the relevant literature review,the ideas and methods of this research.The second part defines related concepts.Firstly,the characters of defining the teaching and values by people are summarized from the research literatures about teaching and values.The teaching value understood by this study is then put forward, namely,it is the view and recognition toward something that should be valued in the special activity in which human are shaped at schools.Secondly,ecologism understood by this study is presented;namely,it is the conception of a system as a whole way of thinking,the principles of democracy and equality,the thoughts of respecting diversity and views of valuing dynamic development.The third part gives the historical perspective of teaching values changes.This part finds the relationship between the assumptions of human nature and changes in the teaching values,mainly through back the historic changes in teaching values;it is found that the teaching values are decided by the assumption of human nature,which promotes the establishment and dissemination of the assumption of human nature.The fourth part examines the ecological traditional teaching values from the ecological perspective.This part mainly evaluates the traditional teaching values from an ecological perspective.Firstly,it examines the traditional assumptions of human nature,which is the premise of traditional teaching values,from the ecological perspective.Ecologism indicates that traditional assumptions of human nature can't understand human comprehensively,only see huamn's one or a number of aspects, making human,society and nature fail to coexist in harmony.Secondly,examining the ecological traditional teaching values idea from the ecological perspective finds the shortcomings of traditional teaching values idea,as follow,the teaching purpose are one-sided,single;the teaching content dissevers the sciences and humanities;the teaching process emphasizes advanced designs and despises generation;the teaching evaluation emphasizes unified and static,despises differences and generation;the relationship of teacher-student is a pattern of "I and it",The human,who are shaped by the traditional assumption of human nature and the teaching values idea which is decided by it,would only accelerate the deterioration of ecological environment.The fifth part introduces ecological teaching values idea.This part establishes corresponding teaching values idea,from the ecological human characteristics and requirements,which are the basic of the ecologism idea.Ecologism holds that human are the product of complex ecosystem of "human,society and nature",they are called ecological people,whose characteristics are:the life,diversity,generated and equality. Ecologic people call for the establishment of the ecological teaching values idea, which should contain as follow:the teaching purpose is to cultivate human ecological rationality;the teaching content follows the orientation of ecological science and humanistic;the teaching process is a combination of the advanced designs and generated;the teaching evaluation follows the principle of diversity and the principle of dynamically generated;the teacher-student relationship is a type of "I and you".
