On the Path of"Entropy Reduction"Under the Dilemma of"Entropy Increase"in Modern College——Taking the Experience of Neo-Confucian Scholars in Reviving the Academy as a Mirror
Modern College is a new type of education mode for the character-istic development of higher education in China.Although certain achievements have been made in the initial exploration stage of this new model,there are still some practical problems such as formalized development,loss of core spirit,and fuzzy development orientation,and it is suspected that it is trapped in the devel-opment dilemma of"entropy increase".The Neo Confucianists represented by Xiong Shili,Ma Yifu,Zhang Junmai and Qian Mu started from the cultural crisis in modern China,promoted the humanistic education thought by means of reviving the Academy,and contributed to the construction of modern university academies through philosophical thinking.By investigating the valuable experience in reviving the Academy,this research molded the core spirit from the ontological dimension,built the cultural atmosphere from the cultural dimension,promoted the top-level system design from the institutional dimension,improved the educational content from the epistemological dimension,and constructed the way of learning from the methodological dimension,providing a mirror for the de-velopment of"entropy reduction"of modern university academies,and vigorously promoting the spread of traditional culture of modern university academies and the characteristic development of higher education.
