Abstract

Pedagogy was initially imported into China, known as “a discipline imported from abroad”. The introduction of Pedagogy and its Sinicization almost went hand in hand. The Sinicization has gone through six stages, which showed that more attention should be paid to Chinese educational reality, scientific research methods and the relationship between academic research and ideology. What is more, original research should be advocated and the relationship between national cultural and educational heritage and foreign educational theory should also be handled well.
