Benner's Thought on the End of Educational Practice
The issue of the end of educational practice is a fundamental one in educational theory and practice.Benner proposed in General Pedagogy that educational practice has an end,arguing that the difference between educational practice and other human practices is that educational practice is based on presupposing its own end.The end of educational actions in the three dimensions of educational practice has different scales:as a compulsory relationship of self-negation towards immature individuals,the termination scale is the transition of the relationship between educational subjects from"managerial coercion"to"reversibility";as an educational practice of educational and educational teaching,the ultimate measure is the learner's self-reflection and self-judgment;as a transitional educational practice into social action,the ultimate measure is the self-responsibility and intergenerational interaction of learners in the overall human practice.The main characteristic of the end of educational practice is that"there is a definite boundary without a clear borderline".Specifically,"with a definite boundary"means educational practice can neither be"undereducated"nor"overeducated",and"without a clear borderline"means there is a lack of a definite time boundary and a new starting point of educational practice may be obtained at any time.
