教育博士作为专业学位的身份再审思

Abstract

Edd与PHd的差别主要在于培养目标、探究过程、知识范式的哲学基础三个方面。Edd教育因应了教师专业发展背景中对教师赋权和解放的需求,强调以应用为目的的个人实践知识,主要研究方法是批判性反思和参与行动研究等。要转变人们对Edd是“次等学位“、“非研究型学位“的误解,就必须通过建立合作研究社群等凸现其改变世界的工具性,发挥其在促进教师专业发展上的独特作用。

The main differences between PhD and EdD programs lie in their purposes,processes of study and philosophical basis of knowledge.EdD programs emphasize application-oriented practice,critical thinking and participant action research in response to the needs of teacher empowerment and emancipation in real educational settings.To correct the erroneous notion about EdD as "an inferior degree" or "non-research degree",EdD's unique value should be brought into full play in facilitating teachers' professional development.
