Abstract:

With the continuous advancement of building a strong educational nation and a high-quality specialized teaching force, constructing an autonomous knowledge system for Chinese teacher education has become an important and urgent strategic task. The “autonomous knowledge system of Chinese education,” “autonomous knowledge system of Chinese pedagogy,” “autonomous knowledge system of Chinese teacher education,” and “autonomous knowledge system of Chinese teacher pedagogy” correspond to the crystallization of collective wisdom, macro-disciplinary planning, the form of practical knowledge, and disciplinary knowledge verification, respectively. These four constitute a dialectical relationship characterized by shared origins, subordination, interaction, and mutual generation. The autonomous knowledge system of Chinese teacher pedagogy possesses core characteristics such as the high practicality of subject generation, the ethical prescriptiveness of value orientation, the dynamic transformation of theory and practice, and the systematic integration of multi-dimensional collaboration. In terms of construction, at the theoretical level, it is essential to consolidate the foundation, establish the principle of autonomy, and build a “five-in-one” core architecture; at the practical level, it is necessary to be rooted in the local context, promoting multi-dimensional driven knowledge production by policy, practice, and research communities; at the methodological level, it is required to uphold integrity while innovating, advocating for diverse methods, strengthening empirical research, and exploring localized paradigms. By constructing an ecosystem of collaborative evolution of theory, practice, and methods, and establishing corresponding autonomous academic evaluation mechanisms, the systematic construction and international dialogue of the autonomous knowledge system of Chinese teacher pedagogy will be effectively promoted.

Key words: teacher pedagogy, autonomous knowledge system, core characteristics, localized construction, systematic construction
