Rationality-Logic-Spirituality:An Analytical Framework and Strategic Orientation for Modernizing the Governance of Vocational Education
The effective advancement of modernizing the governance of vocational education is based on a comprehensive and profound understanding of its attributes.Modernization of vocational education governance is a composite concept that embraces three sub-concepts:"vocational education","governance"and"modernization",corresponding to the object,ontology and pattern of governance respectively.It embodies three attributes,that is,the attribute of divergent,horizontal integration and vertical penetration under the"comparison between vocational education and general education",the attribute of multi-subject cooperation under the"national center",and the attribute of dynamic and static quality iteration under the"crisscrossing of time and space".However,in the process of modernizing the governance of vocational education,three typical problems are still prevalent.The first problem is the suspension of the attributes of vocational education,such as tending to be similar to general education,being detached from human-centeredness and a weak vertical connection.The second problem is the blur of the governance paradigm,which is characterized by the unclear purpose of transformation,the uncertainty of the rights and responsibilities of the main bodies,and the incomplete cooperative system.The third problem is the misplaced positioning of modernization,including the dominance of institutional"discipline"and technological"gestell",as well as the satisfaction of individual's"private interests".In the future,modernizing the governance of vocational education should be rooted with the"threefold"attributes of vocational education as the rational basis,the"five fields"(i.e.,industry,enterprise,occupation,profession and study)as the logical rationale,and the"Chinese-style"modernization attribute as the spiritual purpose.From the comprehensive perspective of rationality,logic and spirituality,the logical direction and strategic orientation of modernizing the governance of vocational education should be redefined in order to realize the ultimate goal of being based on"vocational education",returning to"the profession"and heading towards"good governance".
