Three Absurd Theories of Current Pedagogy Research (Article written in Chinese)

CHENG Tianjun & WU Kangning

Abstract

Chinese pedagogy has achieved quite a lot of research achievements and academic progress in pursuing educational disciplinary independence and local original creation. Meanwhile, there have been three absurd issues which are the “talking-doing” issues in the educational research, “separation-combination” issues among the branch disciplines and the “I-He” issues in the background of globalization. It is a necessity to correct the bias of only talking (education) without doing (research) in pedagogics and overcome the chronic illness that each branch discipline emphasizes individuality and specialty too much while ignoring the links and cooperation between each other and watch out for the tendency of either worshiping western statements in the research or applying Chinese and western statements mechanically.

Keywords: pedagogy; educational research; educational thought
