Abstract:

Chinese pedagogy is a pedagogy generated in the authentic Chinese educational environment,evolving in accordance with the inherent logic of Chinese society and pedagogy itself. China’s educational research has gone through all-round exploration during the restoration and reconstruction period (1982—2002), balanced construction during the stable development period (2003—2011), and innovative development during the deepening reform period (2012—present), and has revealed distinct stage characteristics. Chinese educational research demonstrates reflection and exploratory nature in the search for disciplinary self-esteem, highlights transformation and adaptability in the pursuit of disciplinary self-improvement, and exhibits criticality and innovation in establishing disciplinary self-confidence. Facing a new period of historical opportunities, educational research under the background of a powerful country in education will show a new development trend, including educational research deepening into multi-disciplinary intersections; research objects reshaping the pedagogical stance; research methods becoming more diverse and balanced; rethinking the nature of pedagogy; exporting Chinese educational experience to the world; and shifting educational research to care and symbiosis, etc.

Key words: Chinese educational research, Chinese pedagogy, University Scientific Research Outstanding Achievement Award, Chinese experience
