“正能量”与青少年传统文化教育

当代中国青少年的"正能量"主要包括"天下兴亡、匹夫有责"的家国情怀、"仁爱共济、立己达人"的社会关爱、"正心笃志、崇德弘毅"的人格修养等重要内涵。中国青少年的"正能量"是传统文化和现代文化合力涵养出来的。其中,传统文化教育是涵养中国青少年"正能量"的重要途径。但在现实生活中,中华传统文化教育长期缺乏教育目标,课程规划、师资、教材基本处于零的状态,亟需改变。而要解决此问题,需从"教什么"、"在哪教"、"谁来教"、"教育谁"等问题入手,切实落实教育部《完善中华优秀传统文化教育指导纲要》提出的各项要求,以帮助青少年涵养"正能量"。

"Positive Energy" and Youth Traditional Culture Education

＂Positive Energy＂ of modern Chinese youth mainly includes such important connotations as the national sensation ＂Everyone has a duty to their country＂, social care ＂All should mutually aid in the spirit of benevolence, and help others on the premise of self-improvement＂, as well as personality cultivation ＂One should make firm determination based on sincerity, respect virtue and promote fortitude＂. Traditional culture education is an important approach to nurture ＂Positive Energy＂ of young Chinese, jointly with modern culture. Actually, it is urgent to make a change, as there have been no educational aims, curriculum systems, teachers or textbooks in traditional Chinese culture education for a long time. In order to deal with this issue, it is essential to begin with such questions as ＂what to teach＂, ＂where to teach＂ and ＂who to teach＂, and ＂whom to be taught＂, while practically completing the tasks issued by Ministry of Education in ＂Guidelines for Improving Chinese Excellent Traditional Culture Education＂, so as to help the youth develop ＂Positive Energy＂.
