摘要
本文聚焦拔尖创新人才培养的基本途径以及与之相关的几个关系与争议:一是美国拔尖创新人才培养的现状。拔尖创新人才培养的核心包括两个方面,多元化课程和学习发展通道以及匹配的产业发展体系。就产业配套而言,美国具有全球顶级的科研型大学和大公司,为拔尖创新人才提供了优质的资金扶持和科研生态环境。二是美国宽广纵深课程与拔尖创新人才培养的关系。美国拔尖创新人才培养的优势是其现有的覆盖全学段的“宽广纵深”课程体系。美国中学生可以有丰富的自选课程,包括几百门覆盖中学和大学水平的选修课,而不是让学生在中小学期间十几年的时间里仅仅学习几门课程。“宽广纵深”课程的实施有配套的方法,比如选修课程、学分制、走班制,其课程体系与大学录取完全挂钩。三是美国的大学招生制度与拔尖创新人才的关系。美国的大学招生制度不只是考察几门课程,而是将学生在中小学选修的课程全部纳入考察的范围。这样一方面鼓励学生在“宽广纵深”课程体系中按自己的兴趣和优势多元化发展,同时这种发展的结果也作为大学录取的一个重要考察方向。其结果是使得优秀的学生可以自主地多元化发展,而大学也可以招到专业和能力匹配的优秀学生。创新需要有足够的自由空间与自主发展,因此,多元化的学习和发展空间是拔尖创新人才培养的关键条件。
This discussion focuses on the basic approaches to cultivating top⁃notch innovative talents and clarifies several related relationships and controversies.The first controversy involves the current situation of cultivating top⁃notch innovative talents in the United States.Top⁃notch innovative talent cultivation includes a curriculum system,learning development channels,and a matching industrial development system.Regarding the industrial development system,the United States has the world's top scientific research universities and large companies,providing high⁃quality financial support and scientific research ecological environment for top⁃notch innovative talents.Secondly,it discusses the relationship between the“broad and deep”diversified curriculum system in the United States and the cultivation of top⁃notch innovative talents.The advantage of cultivating top⁃notch innovative talents in the United States lies in its“broad and deep”curriculum system that covers all stages of learning rather than the STEM curriculum.American high school students can select from dozens or even hundreds of courses,including several hundred optional courses covering both high school and university levels,instead of being limited to a few courses over a dozen years of primary and secondary education.Implementing the“broad and deep”curriculum system is supported by methods such as elective courses,credit systems,and flexible scheduling,and the curriculum system is closely linked to university admissions.Thirdly,it discusses the relationship between the American university admissions system and cultivating top⁃notch innovative talents.University admission in the United States does not only examine students'performances on a few courses but also includes dozens or hundreds of courses that students choose to take in primary and secondary schools.On the contrary,this encourages students to develop diversely according to their interests and strengths within the“broad and deep”curriculum system.On the other h
