Abstract
[Translated from Chinese]
Where is education heading? This is a very important theoretical and
practical question. The alternatively question is:
Examination-oriented Education or Comprehensive education?
The answer is different for different schools of educational
philosophy: the former answer is provided by modern
philosophers, the latter by British Philosopher Alfred North
Whitehead's (1861-1947) postmodern process philosophy.
Whitehead's postmodern process education philosophy challenges modern
education philosophy. This challenge leaves people today with
a profound thought and an important inspiration with broad implications
for the future.
