论生态困境中的现代教育

20世纪 80年代以来 ,人们针对困扰当代人类社会持续发展的生态危机 ,试图找出各种有效的办法和策略以摆脱困境 ,但收效甚微。对此 ,现代教育却没有作出必要的反应 ,依然固守原有的体制去应付 ,从而陷入了窘境。鉴于生态意识的培养需要一个持久恒定的过程 ,为了使人们能够用科学的态度、伦理之情怀和艺术的品性去处理人与自然的关系 ,现代教育必须尽自己的责任 ,发挥出特有的传道、授业、解惑的功能 ,大力倡导生态教育。

Modern Education in Ecological Dilemma

Since 1980s, various measures have been adopted in an attempt to get rid of the ecological crisis which troubles the sustainable development of modern society, the result of which proves to be ineffective. However, modern education makes no response to this situation. Instead, it conforms to its former systems and therefore falls into dilemma. On account of the need of long duration for the cultivation of ecological awareness and in order to cultivate people to deal with the relationship between nature and human beings in a scientific manner by adopting ethics and artistic taste, we should make modern education fully play its role in advocating ecological education.
