Original title: the Ministry of education cancels the outline of junior high school academic examination and pays more attention to all-round development
The Ministry of Education released a series of opinions, including opinions on strengthening the work of setting test questions for junior high school academic level and opinions on strengthening and improving the experimental teaching in primary and secondary schools, which will bring great changes to the education and teaching in primary and secondary schools in the future.
"Examination proposition opinions" put forward that scientific proposition should be strictly based on the compulsory education curriculum standard, and the junior high school academic level examination outline should be cancelled, so as to promote the students to learn each course carefully and complete the compulsory education study regulated by the state. According to the characteristics of different subjects, set the structure of test questions reasonably, reduce the proportion of mechanical and memory test questions, improve the proportion of exploratory, open and comprehensive test questions, and actively explore interdisciplinary propositions.
Reducing the proportion of mechanical and memory questions is in line with the law of education. As for what we are concerned about & lsquo; canceling the syllabus of junior high school academic level examination & rsquo;, in fact, it is strictly in accordance with the curriculum. I think it has little impact on the examinees. As long as the examinees follow the teachers to review normally, it is OK. Liu Shaoqing, vice president of Xingzhi branch, Affiliated Middle School of Nanjing Normal University, said frankly, "in fact, since last year, Nanjing has gradually increased the content of open questions, for example, there are many open questions in last year's Chinese test paper. In addition, we also found that many primary schools and junior high schools have begun to add open and interdisciplinary questions, such as the emergence of mathematical argumentation in Chinese. This requires that our students must have creative thinking and the ability to adapt to changes in the coming examination. '
According to the requirements of experimental teaching opinions, the experimental teaching situation should be included in the education quality evaluation and monitoring system. The performance of students' experimental operation ability should be included in the comprehensive quality evaluation. Before 2023, the experimental operation should be included in the junior high school academic level examination, and the examination results should be taken as the admission basis for senior high school enrollment. The experimental operation of physical and chemical students can be included in the provincial unified examination of senior high school academic level in the regions where conditions permit.
At present, the experimental task in Jiangsu middle school classroom has become the norm. There will be an experimental examination in May, mainly in physics and chemistry. The operation of the experiment is relatively simple, and it is basically passed, not included in the total score of the middle school entrance examination. Ma Huiyan, head of the chemistry teaching and research group of the junior middle school of Hexi Branch of Jinling middle school, told reporters that there are eight students' experiments in the third year of the junior high school, such as the purification of crude salt, the preparation of oxygen, carbon dioxide and other gases, which are the most basic chemical experiments. If students master these, they will probably master the basic methods of chemical experiments. In the future, if it is included in the senior high school entrance examination, the course of the third year of junior high school will certainly be more compact than it is now, and it will also be a test for our teaching arrangement, but it is very good for the cultivation of students' experimental view, practical ability and thinking ability, which can lay a solid discipline foundation for them in the future, and it is also very beneficial for the study of senior high school and University in the future. '
Whether it is to cancel the outline of junior high school academic level examination, or to reduce the proportion of mechanical and memory examination questions, it means that we should pay more attention to the overall development of students in talent training. From 2020, the results of the evaluation of the art quality of junior high school graduates in our province will be included in the results of the middle school entrance examination. On November 23 of this year, Nanjing Municipal Bureau of Education issued the interpretation of the policy on the evaluation of the artistic quality of junior high school graduates in Nanjing in 2020. According to the requirements of the evaluation program of the artistic quality of junior high school graduates in Nanjing (Trial), the results of the evaluation of the artistic quality are not included in the form of scores, but are related to the evaluation of "aesthetics and performance" in the six indicators of the comprehensive quality evaluation of junior high school graduates If the result of technical quality evaluation is qualified (C or above), it is equivalent to grade B of "aesthetic and performance", then the target students can apply for the examination and the first batch can be admitted to the school. In other words, as long as the artistic quality evaluation score is more than 60 points, it will not affect the ordinary candidates to enter any school. However, students who apply for the examination of art specialty need to achieve grade B (75 points) or above in the assessment of art quality.
Xiong Bingqi, vice president of the Institute of education and research in the 21st century, believes that in order to promote basic education to get rid of exam oriented education, it is necessary to weaken rather than strengthen the baton function of the college entrance examination, that is, middle school teaching should not take this baton as a baton, but give students a complete education at this stage according to regulations. At present, there is the problem of "integration of teaching, enrollment and examination" in our country. The only basis for enrollment in higher level schools is examination scores, and for teaching in middle schools, examination is the baton. Thus, examination is based on the core position. In order to make the middle school not take the examination as the baton, it is necessary to promote the reform of "separation of teaching and examination", to realize the independent enrollment of the higher school and the independent teaching of the middle school, which requires that the examination be turned into the evaluation examination, to provide the evaluation basis for the enrollment of the higher school and the teaching of the middle school.
