In our complex and highly connected world, educating for life—that is, educating students with knowledge, skills, and competences infused with practical wisdom (PW) and ethical and moral values—is essential. The paper seeks to answer the question: how could university education facilitate the progress to a wiser and better world? The methodology involves case study research (CSR) based on both secondary and primary data. The missions, visions, and values of fourteen public Finnish universities are analyzed for PW. The findings demonstrate that universities, by becoming more open, unbounded, and enacting organizations, and by enhancing collaboration with businesses, could foster the cultivation of PW in higher education (HE). The novelty of this paper is the creative communication of the case study, where kairos, logos, pathos, and ethos are used to explore a new reality for HE. The article contributes to the contemporary discourses in the literature on the future of HE. Educators in HE need to transform from knowledge workers to wise leaders, wisdom workers, creators, empathizers, pattern recognizers, and meaning makers. The context of the case study research makes it difficult to generalize. Therefore, international, comparative research is used to complement the findings. The eight-stage change process applied to universities and HE could help in solving the urgent problems of society and facilitating progress to a wiser and better world.

用 Logos、Pathos 和 Ethos 在高等教育中寻找实践智慧。案例：芬兰科学大学

在我们这个复杂且高度互联的世界中，终身教育——即用知识、技能和能力教育学生，并融入实践智慧 (PW) 和伦理道德价值观——至关重要。这篇论文试图回答这个问题：大学教育如何促进迈向一个更智慧、更美好的世界？该方法涉及基于二手和主要数据的案例研究 (CSR)。PW 分析了芬兰 14 所公立大学的使命、愿景和价值观。研究结果表明，大学通过变得更加开放、无限制和制定组织，并通过加强与企业的合作，可以促进高等教育 (HE) 中 PW 的培养。本文的新颖之处在于案例研究的创造性交流，其中kairos、logos、pathos和ethos用于探索 HE 的新现实。这篇文章有助于当代文献中关于高等教育未来的论述。高等教育的教育者需要从知识工作者转变为明智的领导者、智慧工作者、创造者、同理心者、模式识别者和意义创造者。案例研究的背景使得难以一概而论。因此，国际比较研究被用来补充研究结果。应用于大学和高等教育的八阶段变革过程可以帮助解决社会的紧迫问题，促进向更智慧、更美好的世界迈进。
