Turner 談教育研究與教育理論


Turner談教育理論

當老師的吸引因素之一是有寒暑假。放假可休憩、可旅遊、可充電,老師的期盼心理一如學生。今年寒假不出國,又因新聞老早播報「史上最長的年假」,春節前就備妥想看的書及DVD,打算好好遨遊書海與影片。諸位或者想,看書、看DVD都很西松平常,何必要等過年?殊不知平日教學、研究、指導學生論文等將時間塞滿不說且切割的零碎,讀期刊論文都常被打斷,不似過年,看書觀影可一氣呵成,少被干擾。今年過年期間台北天氣濕冷,出遊不宜,但倒是讀書的好天氣,除了精神抖擻,思路也格外清晰。

先談Turner的教育理論(Theory of education)一書。

開宗明義,Turner先提2003年英國的社會科學研究報告,該報告的結論有二:其一為英國社會科學有大量且持續增加的研究已經及正在進行;其二,對於上述研究的批評也持續增加。而這種情形不是英國獨有,類似的討論在美國也可見。

Turner 引述學者及專業學術團體對教育研究品質的批評,多聚焦於教育研究者進行時不符合研究規範或應用不當,以致影響研究品質。但Turner認為目前社會科學研究,尤其是教育研究,應用的方法與原則不當,根本無法帶來高品質的研究。換言之,Turner質疑英、美的教育研究的問題不是研究者個人的問題,或是研究之「術」—研究方法或程序出紕漏,而是研究背後依據的理論架構有瑕疵,故他認為解決之道應從上游,也就是教育理論著手。

老實說,Turner對教育研究的看法用之於台灣也說得通。過去十餘年來,國內教育研究的論文、書籍等在數量上急增,但品質是否也一併提升,恐怕很難有正面答案。Turner書引起我注意的是,是他認為好的教育理論需符合下列標準:

1.    允許個人自由意志的範圍合乎倫理
2.    對於容許個人有超過一個以上的正確方法發展個人教育生涯(多面向)
3.    在瞭解的層級上,無論是個人及學校,或與更廣的社會之間,容許個人有部分的自主性(autonomy)

Turner 提出這三項規準,多少反映他認為目前教育理論太限制個人意志、太過決定論、太單一面向等。他以此三規準檢視教育理論,認為唯有先清除了地面,才能在上面植基、建立架構,進而容許教育研究發展建立可累積的傳統,在品質方面提升。

Turner 的教育理論三規準是否能成為教育研究的普世規準或通則,恐怕還需進一步的驗證。教育理論的對象是人,如欲以自然界的科學理論或原則套用在教育或社會學科,恐並不適宜。別忘了,教育是在脈絡之下進行,而脈絡又牽涉到社會、文化等因素,故教育理論要考量的因素既多且複雜,需要更全面、更仔細的檢視。
