Interpretation of the"Double Reduction"Policy from the Perspective of the Philosophy of Time:Methods,Purposes and Paths
As an important reform in the field of education in China,"Double Reduction"is full of"time"elements.On the one hand,"Double Reduction"addresses the utilitarianization and capitalization of edu-cation by regulating homework time,after-school service time,rest time,out-of-school training time,and other policy tools.This series of policy tools helps to reduce students'burdens in and out of school.On the other hand,"Double Reduction"prompts people to reflect on the crisis of monopolization of the positivist view of time,return to human beings themselves,and reopen the thinking on conceptual time and relational time.Time is not a cold clock,but a medium between people and the world.Understanding the diverse forms of educational time,discovering the inner time,relational time,and differential time of students as human beings,and embrac-ing the local time,school time,and students'time of education are the only ways to reduce the physical and mental burdens of students,release the vitality of school education,and achieve an educative"Double Reduc-tion".
