"Based on the principle of active, steady and step-by-step implementation, we have adjusted and improved the academic examination for junior high school students and the enrollment reform plan for ordinary high schools on the basis of extensive consultation and full investigation and demonstration." At the press conference, Zhou, deputy director of the Municipal Education Bureau, said that this reform will be implemented simultaneously with the grading system, and complete grading evaluation and admission will be implemented when conditions are ripe.
This reform mainly focuses on four aspects. The first is the academic examination for junior high school students, which stipulates the presentation form of examination subjects and examination results, and stipulates that the early examination system will no longer be implemented. On the other hand, it is required to maintain the overall stability of the enrollment policy, and to implement the parallel admission method of score system and grade system in the enrollment work of ordinary high schools. Relevant regulations have also been made for the admission of direct students and index students. At the same time, the education bureaus and sports bureaus of other districts and cities are also encouraged to formulate the implementation plan for the enrollment reform of ordinary high schools according to the actual situation.
plan
Grades are presented in two forms: scores and grades.
For the first time, the reform stipulated the relevant contents of junior high school students' academic examinations. According to the regulations, the test scores of eight subjects, such as Chinese, mathematics, English, physics, chemistry, history, geography and biology, are presented in the form of scores and grades, and three subjects, such as ideology and morality, physical education and health, and information technology, are presented in the form of grades. Chinese, mathematics, English, physics, chemistry, history, geography and biology are divided into five grades of ABCDE, while ideology and morality, physical education and health, and information technology are divided into two grades of passing and failing.
The policy also stipulates that the early examination system will no longer be implemented. Among them, candidates who fail the information technology exam in grade two can apply for retaking in grade three. The relevant person in charge of the Municipal Education Bureau said that in mid-September, the Municipal Education Bureau will announce the scores and grades of junior high school students of grade 20 12 (including students of grade 20 13 who took geography and biology exams in advance) through the Qingdao Education Government Website ().
In addition, it is stipulated that the scores of students who took geography and biology exams in advance in grade 20 13 will remain valid, and they can take exams again in grade two and get two exam scores. Students who have passed the information technology examination in advance will no longer take the information technology examination in Grade Two, and those who fail will take the information technology examination in Grade Two.
The total score is 780. Look at the exam results first and then compare the results.
In terms of enrollment of ordinary high schools, the Municipal Education Bureau has maintained the overall stability of the enrollment policy. Continue to implement multiple enrollment policies such as enrollment of index students, enrollment of special students, independent enrollment (including direct enrollment) and unified enrollment; Continue to implement the first and second voluntary parallel admission policies; Continue to implement the orderly admission of public ordinary high schools, and determine the admission order of public ordinary high schools according to the admission scores; Continue to demarcate the admission qualification scores of ordinary classes in public ordinary high schools, the minimum admission control scores of special students in ordinary classes in public ordinary high schools and the minimum admission control scores of private ordinary high schools.
Previously, candidates and parents were more concerned about the final total score of the senior high school entrance examination. According to the regulations announced at this press conference, the parallel admission method of score system and grade system will be implemented. The total score of ordinary high school admission is finally determined to be 780 points. Among them, language 120, mathematics 120, English 120, physics 100, chemistry 80, history 80, geography 80 and biology 80. It is stipulated in the admission method of ordinary high schools that the unified enrollment of ordinary high schools takes the total score of eight subjects as the standard, and the candidates with the same total score are selected according to the combination of subject levels. First of all, students are selected through the combination of Chinese, mathematics and English scores; If the English levels of Chinese, Mathematics and English are the same, the selection will be made by combining the levels of physics, chemistry and biology. If the scores of physics, chemistry and biology are the same, students will be selected by combining the scores of history and geography.
In addition, it is also stipulated that the first and second ordinary high schools that voluntarily complete the enrollment plan must achieve qualified grades in subjects such as ideology and morality, physical education and health, and information technology. Other public ordinary high schools give priority to candidates who have reached the qualified level in ideology and morality, physical education and health, and information technology.
The policy of direct students and index students starts from grade 20 13.
The admission of direct students and index students is also the focus of parents and candidates in the early stage, and this reform has finally decided to implement the policy of direct students and index students from junior high school students in grade 20 13.
According to the regulations, the enrollment of directly affiliated students begins with junior high school students in grade 20 13, and the directly affiliated students in Qingdao No.1 Middle School, Qingdao No.2 Middle School, Qingdao No.9 Middle School and Qingdao No.58 Middle School are enrolled independently by the school. The independent enrollment plan shall be formulated by the enrollment school according to the unified enrollment policy of the whole city, combined with the development needs of the school characteristics, in accordance with the principles of merit, openness, fairness and justice, and implemented after being approved by the Municipal Education Bureau. Students register independently according to the enrollment conditions of the enrollment school, and the enrollment school enrolls independently according to the enrollment plan.
The admission of index students also starts from junior high school students in grade 20 13, and the candidates are determined according to the candidates' first choice and the total scores of academic examinations. The specific method is: according to the number of junior high school students, the quota of index students is evenly distributed to all junior high schools. In the unified enrollment of ordinary high schools, taking junior high schools as a unit, the candidates who apply for high-quality ordinary high schools in our school are sorted from high to low according to the total score, and then the candidates with index students are determined according to the quota of index students. Candidates with the same total score are selected according to the combination of subject grades. Candidates who are identified as index students will participate in the unified enrollment of ordinary high schools after adding 30 points to the total score of academic examinations.

"This reform is fairer."
Ms. Wu, a parent, is very concerned about the enrollment reform of the senior high school entrance examination. Her son is a junior high school student in grade 20 13. As a junior two student, she will face the policy reform of direct students and index students. "Because the child's study is not bad, it is also an upstream in the class, so we always want him to take indicators and get 58 indicators." Ms. Wu said that the reform of the index students can reflect fairness.
"This reform stipulates that who can get the quota according to the total score of the senior high school entrance examination, so that we can understand at once, and the possibility of black-box operation is also great." Ms. Wu said.
What do students think of the reform of the senior high school entrance examination? The reporter conducted a random survey in Class 2, a junior high school in Qingdao. There are 37 students in this class. When the reporter asked how much the changes in the senior high school entrance examination reform had affected them, the vast majority of students said they were calm. "I think as long as we study hard and study hard, no matter how the policy changes, we can cope. Don't worry so much, we will still study hard and step by step. " A classmate said. And there are not a few people who think the same way as this classmate.

The "teacher" has been changed to the score system, which is conducive to the connection with high school.
The reporter learned that in this year's senior high school entrance examination, the scores of all subjects were set as Chinese 120, mathematics 120, English 120, physics 100, chemistry 80, ideology and morality 80, physical education 45, with a total score of 665. There are two main changes in the setting of scores in this reform. The grades of history, geography and biology were changed from the original grade system to the scoring system, with 80 points in each subject. The ideological and moral character and physical education class have changed from scores to grades, which are divided into passing and failing. This addition and subtraction will make the total score of the future senior high school entrance examination become 780 points.
Why is there such a change? Zhou, deputy director of the Municipal Education Bureau, said that this is mainly based on the principle of improving teaching quality. "Improving the quality of teaching is the core task of education reform and development, but we should consider improving the quality of compulsory education and laying a solid foundation for high school education and teaching." He said that this time, the inclusion of historical geography and biology in the examination subjects is mainly to consider improving the teaching quality of these subjects and promoting the all-round development of students.
Earlier, Deng Yunfeng, director of the Municipal Education Bureau, also explained some reasons for the changes in the scores of the senior high school entrance examination online. He said that history, geography and biology are included in the total score of the senior high school entrance examination according to 80 points, mainly considering the following points. First, it conforms to the score structure of college entrance examination subjects. The second is to maintain the continuity of policies. After the grades of all subjects are determined, in principle, they should remain stable for many years. The scores of history, geography and biology in grades 20 12, 20 13 and above are all 80 points, which reflects the continuity, stability and seriousness of the policy. The third is to fully consider the actual situation of geography and biology examinations for students of grade 20 12.
The discount for index students is 30 points, which is the lowest in all cities in the province.
According to the provisions of this reform, students have more autonomy in the policies of direct students and index students. Direct students become students who register independently according to the conditions of each enrollment school. Index students decide the attribution of index students' places according to their scores in the senior high school entrance examination.
And what is the reason for this reform? Zhou, deputy director of the Municipal Education Bureau, said that such reform reflected the principle of educational equity to a greater extent. "Adjusting the policy of indicator students and direct students and reducing the policy of extra points are all reforms and adjustments to promote educational equity." He said that education equity is mainly equal opportunity. While grasping the principle of promoting educational equity, we should also handle the relationship between promoting equity and selecting talents, and encourage outstanding talents to stand out. "The state has clear requirements for the policy and proportion of the index students. Our reform is also an organic combination of respecting public opinion and implementing relevant national policies. "
Deng Yunfeng also explained the reasons for the implementation of the new policy of "indicator students" and "direct students" from junior high school students of grade 20 13. He said, the first is to maintain the continuity and stability of the policy. Junior high schools have announced the selection method for junior high school students of grade 20 12, and students of grade 20 12 are about to face the senior high school entrance examination. Maintaining the continuity and stability of the policy is conducive to students taking the senior high school entrance examination with a stable attitude. The second is to fully consider the adaptability of students, parents and schools to the new policy. Students of grade 20 12 have been preparing for two years according to the current selection method of index students and direct enrollment. If the new method of selecting students with indicators and direct students is implemented from grade 20 12, students, parents and junior high schools will not adapt to it and it will be unfair to students in grade 20 12.
In this reform, it is stipulated that candidates who are identified as index students will participate in the unified enrollment of ordinary high schools after adding 30 points to the total score of academic examinations. Deng Yunfeng said that in combination with the actual situation in Qingdao, the Municipal Education Bureau has set the preferential treatment score for index students at 30 points, which is the lowest among 17 cities in the province. Compared with other cities with separate plans and sub-provincial cities in China, the preferential treatment score for index students in Qingdao is also low.
The reporter learned that judging from the enrollment situation of the 20 15 senior high school entrance examination, Qingdao only retained the policy bonus items stipulated by the state, including children of returned overseas Chinese, relatives of overseas Chinese, children of ethnic minorities and children of military personnel. Admission to the senior high school entrance examination does not include all kinds of competition results. This also promotes the realization of educational equity to a certain extent.
This is a transitional policy, or a transitional period of several years.
Before, parents were more concerned about whether Shi Shengdi changed his score from grade, and the total score changed from more than 600 to 780, which would not increase students' excessive academic burden. In response to such questions, the relevant person in charge of the Municipal Education Bureau also made a corresponding interpretation.
"First of all, we have grasped the principle of respecting public opinion, combined the strength of the reform of the senior high school entrance examination with the acceptance of the general public, fully listened to and absorbed the opinions and suggestions of the general public, experts and all walks of life, and made it the ultimate goal to run a satisfactory education for the people." Zhou said that in the process of the reform of the senior high school entrance examination, we should consider the relationship between improving the quality of education and reducing the burden on students. "To reduce the academic burden is mainly to reduce the excessive, unnecessary, unscientific and unreasonable academic burden. Students must have the necessary burden to study, not to say that the lighter the burden, the better, let alone no academic burden. The main purpose here is to strike a balance between reducing academic burden and improving teaching quality. "
Zhou said that ideological and moral, physical education and information technology exams are divided into passing and failing. In addition to considering the characteristics of these subjects, the main consideration is to reduce the academic burden of students. If the second-year students fail in the information technology exam, they can take it again in the third grade, which is also to consider reducing the students' academic burden.
"The policies announced this time are mainly transitional policies and may take several years." Zhou said that the state will issue opinions on deepening the reform of the high school enrollment system in a period of time, and the reform measures implemented in Qingdao are also in the same direction. After the relevant policies are promulgated by the state, Qingdao Education Bureau will further improve the graded and excellent admission scheme, and the adjustment of policies needs repeated argumentation.

Implementing shift elective courses to strengthen geography and biology
No matter how to change the enrollment policy of senior high school entrance examination, the ultimate goal is on students, and how to teach students well is the key. The reform of the senior high school entrance examination not only involves the changes in the subject scores and enrollment policies, but also reflects that some issues such as educational equity have gradually penetrated into the daily teaching of schools. The reporter learned that the island city junior high school has begun to cope with the reform of the senior high school entrance examination, and has made breakthroughs and innovations in teaching methods and educational technology.
At about 4 pm on September 9, the reporter came to Qingdao 5 1 middle school. The second grade teachers of the whole school held a meeting of "focusing on classroom teaching and welcoming the reform of the senior high school entrance examination", which clarified the specific measures of the school. "The first innovation and optimization is to implement the shift system of elective activities." Zhao Min, vice president of the school, told reporters that the school will offer elective courses by extracurricular activities in the seventh and eighth grades, giving students a new perspective of comprehensive learning and forming a characteristic course of the school. Among the elective courses, geography and biology are offered in the second grade of junior high school.
It turns out that after consulting students and parents in the early stage, the school found that many students and parents have the desire to further optimize geography and biology courses. Therefore, the school decided to add geography and biology elective courses to the elective courses, called advanced classes. "There are 430 students in Grade Two. We registered through the internet. At present, there are more than 130 students who want to apply for classes. " Zhao Min said that students' demands are strong. In this regard, the school selects high-quality teachers from the geography group and provides free tutoring for these students in the third elective course every Tuesday afternoon. Applicants are divided into Class A and Class B. Class A is a slightly better class, which further promotes students' learning.
There is a self-study class for "history students" every afternoon.
In addition, the school also stipulates that the last class every afternoon is a self-study class. In class, students reflect and summarize the history, geography and biology courses and help each other. On the afternoon of 9th, Gao Yaxuan, in Class 4, Grade 2, was discussing the geography lesson she had learned that day with her deskmate Huang Jiayi. Gao Yaxuan helped Huang Jiayi solve a geographical knowledge carefully. Through this independent study, she also increased the study time of geography and biology to a certain extent.
Teacher Liu Yaxin is a geography teacher in Grade Two of junior high school. She teaches five classes. In response to the reform of the senior high school entrance examination, she said that the task is great. "So I adjusted the teaching methods appropriately, and improved the teaching quality without increasing the amount of students' homework and tasks. "Teacher Liu said that according to the normal class hours, the class hours of biology and geography have not changed. Geography lasts about three weeks. In order to ensure geography teaching, the school also helps students learn through independent classes and excellent classes.
"We just adjusted the number of places in some classes this afternoon in order to integrate with the reform of the senior high school entrance examination and optimize the learning structure within the class." Zhao Min told reporters that students sit together in the form of study groups, and each class is divided into about six groups, which are distributed according to the students' learning level and grades, so as to further meet the students' individual needs and promote their all-round development. "This advantage is to make outstanding students form a group advantage, and students with learning difficulties get further promotion and progress, achieving the effect of common progress."
Students are classified and evaluated to achieve non-scoring evaluation.
According to the teaching arrangement of the school, teachers should carefully study the common characteristics and individual differences of the whole class, comprehensively consider the intellectual and non-intellectual factors of each student in the class, and divide the class into three levels: basic level, improvement level and development level. The learning situation of students at three levels is not evaluated according to the same standard. The evaluation criteria for students with development level are from high to strict, and the evaluation criteria for students with improved level and basic level are appropriately relaxed.
"For students with development level, the classification competition evaluation system is adopted." Zhao Min said that in the feedback test of classroom learning, they will be encouraged to compare speed and quality, change the practice of writing carefully and give high marks to correct answers. Classify and evaluate students' classroom learning, form a competitive atmosphere, and make students never satisfied.
In order to promote the development of all the students in the study group, the school requires teachers to make hierarchical propositions according to the students' actual learning situation on weekdays, and students in each study group choose the corresponding level to take the test according to their own learning situation. In other words, the learning ability of each study group is different, and the assigned test papers are different. At the end of each test, teachers will carefully identify students with learning difficulties and students in key subjects in each class. The head teacher and related teachers help students analyze the reasons for unsatisfactory grades, prescribe the right medicine, conduct purposeful heart-to-heart communication and guidance on learning methods, and determine targeted individual counseling content. In the operation of marking test papers, there are both integral evaluation, cluster analysis and comments on the grade of the whole test paper.
