First, establish the foundation of educational purpose.

(A) to establish a social foundation for educational purposes

1, realistic basis

First, the purpose of education should reflect the demand of productive forces and scientific and technological development for talents.

Second, a certain production relationship and the resulting political and economic system are the direct basis for establishing the purpose of education.

2. Historical basis

First of all, the purpose of education itself has a historical heritage.

Second, the establishment of educational purpose will be influenced by traditional culture, and the cultural accumulation of a specific society or nation is also one of the foundations for the establishment of educational purpose.

(B) to establish a philosophical and theoretical basis for educational purposes

The establishment of any specific educational purpose has its inherent philosophical theoretical basis, and the view of people, society and even the whole world in philosophical theory will determine the basic direction of the value orientation of educational purpose. Here we choose the philosophical basis of individual standard and social standard to discuss.

Individualist philosophy and socialist philosophy provide profound theoretical support for the educational purposes based on individuals and society. Individualist philosophy holds that individuals are primitive and self-sufficient independent entities, and society is just abstract and just a name. Everyone is born with an independent and detached self. In this detached self, the individual has an impulse, interest and need independent of the social environment. These psychological characteristics are universal and fixed. In the natural state, everyone is self-sufficient and has the inherent characteristics or qualities that logically precede the political life in society. The constitutional principles of the state and society are derived from this natural state.

Contrary to individualism philosophy, socialist philosophy holds that people are the product of society, everything in personal life comes from society, and real individuals do not exist. "Individual" is just an abstract concept, and society is the real organism. It is not the accumulation of a single individual and * * *, it has the nature of transcending individual existence.

(3) The third basis for establishing the purpose of education: human factors.

As the intermediary and final destination of establishing the educational purpose, human beings must restrict human factors. In a sense, people are the direct basis for establishing the purpose of education.

First, the restrictive effect of the establisher of educational purpose on educational purpose.

Second, the law of the physical and mental development of the educated restricts the establishment of educational goals.
