The initiation of the consciousness of educational philosophy and the self-consciousness of the daily educational life
Educational philosophy as an activity,is the educational practitioners' consciousness of their daily educational life.The fundamental approach to the consciousness of their daily educational life,lies in imparting the daily educational life with an intrinsic value order,which maintains necessary tension between intermediate values and the ultimate values,and between values that could be sought and values that are worthy of pursuing.Then the fundamental approach would facilitate the generation of man's wholeness from our daily educational life,realizing the paramount object of education.The initiation of the consciousness of educational philosophy needs stepping off worship of practice,and keeping the practitioners' openness to educational ideal,to avoid the self-containment of educational practice.Meanwhile,it is necessary to get out of worship of theory,to prevent educational theorists from the vantage of theories.In a word,the improvement of the quality of educational practice entails a constructive dialogue between theory and practice in education.
