为了提倡教师书写和讲述自己的故事,

这篇推送分享我对两个问题的一些思考,激起思考的涟漪,可能会有更多的老师意识到研究无处不在,自己就可以研究自己,这种方式或许是一些老师之前从未想过的。

To advocate teachers to write and tell their own stories,

This post shares my thoughts on two questions so that more teachers may realise that research is everywhere and they can study themselves in a way; sometimes, some of them have never thought.

谁是艾沃·古德森?Who is Ivor Goodson?

为什么知道他的故事、阅读他的作品会对你从事的教育事业有帮助?

Why knowing his story and reading his work would be helpful to your career in education?

谁是艾沃·古德森?

Who is Ivor Goodson?

在我眼中,这个学者是一个致力于搭桥的人。

读他的文章,不会觉得他居高临下,而是一个有经验、有智慧的人,他很明显在一些你想学习的事情上知道得更多。但他的写作会让你觉得他深信、也选择践行这种风格:我们虽然在求学问的道路上有先后,但是我们交流的时候是绝对平等的。我很愿意和你交流,建立平等诚实的对话。

From my point of view, this scholar is someone who is dedicated to building bridges.

Reading his work is like talking to an experienced and wise human in some fields you want to know more. He does not feel superior and chooses to treat each reader equally; his writing will convince you that he firmly believes and practice this style: we may be at different phases of pursuing knowledge, but when we communicate, we are absolutely equal. I am very willing to build up our author-reader relationship in a way we trust each other and talk with honesty.

The stories and experiences, thoughts, reflections so that new connections will be built for, in my metaphor, a new bridge.

相关的研究与更多的介绍我放在文末了,而且其实网上都有、知网都有不少研究他的论文,还有他的专著翻译成中文,所以我觉得在一个用手机阅读的、表达个人思考的微信号就没必要再做搬运工了,我提供传送门就好。

There are more links for you to know more about him in different perspectives. There are already many resources on the internet, either relevant research or translated books. So I do not feel it is necessary to move these to my original platform, which mainly is for sharing my thoughts.

不过我能够认识到除了我认识的老师们之外,确实还存在这样平等待人的学者,是要感谢我求学的学校让我有机会了解。

我最近一次看他的视频是2020年11月7日伦敦的凌晨一点,感恩竟然现在国际会议都有b站直播了(ICI国际会议║今早8点主题报告“哔哩哔哩”直播通道)。

我印象中(可能记得对,也可能记错)第一次读他的书是2017年秋冬之交的某一天,在UCL 教育学院图书馆五楼书架上随便翻看的时候发现的。这本叫做《教师的生活与事业》的书(编者之一是他)有吸引到我。我后面也看了一些他写的书,在这里就不掉书袋了,说我的感受。

But I do need to express my gratitude to two universities for enabling me to have access to know him and his work.

My most recent experience is to the live broadcast organised by ICI in ECNU.

In my memory (which could be right or wrong), the first time I read about him was in the UCL IoE library(fifth floor) in 2017, surfing around the bookshelves between autumn and winter. One of his books (Teachers' lives and Careers, edited by Stephen Ball and Ivor Goodson) caught my eye as it looked like something delightful to read.

为什么知道他的故事、阅读他的作品会对你从事的教育事业有帮助?

Why knowing his story and reading his work would be helpful to your career in education?

很多时候我都觉得读书就是打开了一个时空旅行的钥匙。

一些也意识到这点的开放的作者会带着你尽可能体会不同的精彩,并不告诉你必须怎么做才好达到某种标准。这些作者是让你看到各种各样的故事、叙事,然后脑子还是在你自己这,不是给你洗了脑,而是让你自己得出结论、带回家你想要的信息:

啊哈,我还可以这么去想。

诶,这不错,我也可以试试。

我也一直想做,原来可以这么做啊,挺有意思。

真棒,我也可以做一些让我觉得自己棒的事情。

我的小结是:

有机会读他的作品,你会在认识自己(生活和事业)的路上走得更稳健自信。

你更有可能认识自己“是谁?想要达成什么?”,因为你意识到了研究和研究教师/教育或许并不一定就只能你之前认为的必须'科学数据’或者'客观’。

There are many times that I feel reading a book is getting a key to be a traveller across time and space.

Some authors who also embrace the book's role as a key would try their best to get the reader (you) to experience more diversity, not to tell you what you have to do for some standard. Instead, they let you read different kinds of stories, narratives, and keep your brain with you, not to wash them for their good, but to let you draw up conclusions and take home what you want to take home:

Aha, I can think in this way.

Em, this sounds good, I can put into my practice.

I always want to do this, so someone actually did it and in this fascinating way!

Awesome, I can do something to make me feel good too.

So my summary would be:

Having an opportunity to read his work, you will firmly walk with more confidence(in both your life and career).

You are more likely to get closer to the know yourself in "who you are and what you want to achieve", as you realise research and research teachers/education may not be that 'scientific-data' and 'objective' as you thought it had to be.

此外,为了防杠,我这也不是说其他人的作品就不行,就不能开阔你的眼界了。我不做比较。我只是说研究存在不同的方法,都存在。不能因为一种研究范式存在就让其他做研究的方法都被认为是次于它。

不写其他人,是因为今天主题就是写这个学者,所以有重点与边界,我就说到这里吧。读者想怎么理解,我也就不管了,也管不了。写完啦~

Besides, in case someone wants to be picky, I am not saying other research or scholars' work is not worthy. I am not downplaying other ways of doing research. I do not make a comparison. I say they co-exist as ways of doing research. It does not sound right to say just because one thing exists, then other ways of doing research should be considered inferior.

I am not referring to others as the title already limits the focus and boundary of this post/blog. This is what I prepared for misinterpretation. I cannot control what my reader think, and I have no intention to control. Done.
