The theory basis of the traditional philosophy, different schools of education have developed different teaching concepts. Starting from the process philosophy, Whitehead who pointed that the origin of the world is neither spirit substance nor material substance rejected the concept of substance. It constitutes the world's ultimate actual thing which is Actual Entity-also known as Actual Occasion. Different from the previous philosophers, Whitehead understood that the essence of the world is process, the reality of the world is process, the process is the world, and the world is process. In this essay, the theoretical basis of Whitehead's process philosophy, explained the process of teaching concepts in process philosophy. The Article separates from the view of Teaching Purpose, Teachers and Students, Knowledge, Teaching Process, Teaching Evaluation in process philosophy, and discusses these five parts, which not only review the traditional theory of Instruction,but also reflect and critic it and finally reveal Teaching Conception in Whitehead's process philosophy. The study surveys teaching research paradigm from the perspective of process philosophy and using its' thoughts and ways. The teaching research paradigm in the perspective of process philosophy is constructed in order to be used by providing fully constructive advice for our Basic Education Curriculum Reform and guidance for teaching practice.
