What is the most prominent weakness of the quality of compulsory education in China?
From August 2065438 to August 2008, the Quality Monitoring Center of Basic Education of the Ministry of Education issued the Quality Monitoring Report of Compulsory Education in China, which is the first quality monitoring report of compulsory education in China.

The Report on the Quality Monitoring of Compulsory Education in China reflects that the following weak links in the quality of compulsory education in China are the most prominent:

1. The comprehensive application ability is relatively weak?

The monitoring results show that students' comprehensive application ability is weak. For example, in science, the proportion of fourth-grade students' scientific inquiry ability and scientific thinking ability reaching the middle and above level is 75.7% and 74.9% respectively, which is about 5% lower than their scientific understanding ability; The proportion of eighth-grade students' scientific inquiry ability and scientific thinking ability reaching the middle level and above is 83% and 76.3%, respectively, which is 4. 1% and 10.8% lower than their scientific understanding ability.

2. Obesity, myopia and lack of sleep are prominent problems?

The report shows that the obesity rate of boys in grade four is 8.5%, that of girls is 5. 1%, that of boys in grade eight is 8.5%, and that of girls is 6.2%. At the same time, the detection rates of poor eyesight of grade four and grade eight students were 36.5% and 65.3% respectively. Among them, the proportion of moderate and severe poor eyesight of fourth-grade girls was 18.6% and 10.4% respectively, and that of boys was 16.4% and 9% respectively. The rates of moderate and severe visual impairment in eighth grade girls were 24. 1% and 39.5% respectively, while those in boys were 22. 1% and 3 1.7% respectively. According to national regulations, primary school students should sleep 10 hours every day, and junior high school students should sleep for 9 hours. However, the monitoring results show that 30.7% of the fourth-grade students sleep 10 hour or more, and the eighth-grade students sleep for 9 hours or more 16.6%. ?

3. The ability to listen to and appreciate music needs to be improved?

The report shows that in listening to the basic elements of music, such as rhythm, beat, timbre, strength and speed, the correct answer rate of fourth-grade students is only 52.9%, while that of eighth-grade students is only 53.8%. In terms of style, genre and form, artistic conception and emotion of musical works and appreciation of famous works, the correct answer rate of fourth-grade students is only 66. 1%, while that of eighth-grade students is only 63.2%. In mastering the basic elements of art such as color, line, symmetry and space, the correct answer rate of grade four students is only 63.9%, while that of grade eight students is only 62. 1%. In the appreciation of the theme, style, category and famous works of art works, the correct answer rate of fourth-grade students' questions is only 67.9%. ?

4. Is the proportion of participating in extracurricular academic remedial classes high?

The monitoring results show that the average daily working hours of fourth-grade students in mathematics and Chinese are 33.6% and 40.4% respectively; The average working hours over 60 minutes are 14.7% and 210.5% respectively, and the average working hours over 2 hours are 4.4% and 8.7% respectively. The average daily working hours of Grade 8 students in mathematics and Chinese are 50.2% and 45.5% respectively, and the average working hours are 19.2% and 15. 1% respectively, and the average working hours are 4.6% and 3.4% respectively. The proportion of fourth-grade students taking part in extracurricular tutoring classes of mathematics and Chinese is 43.8% and 37.4% respectively, and the proportion of eighth-grade students taking part in extracurricular tutoring classes of mathematics and Chinese is 23.4% and 17. 1% respectively. More than 30% students feel great pressure to study. ?

5. Some courses have unreasonable class hours and content arrangements?

The monitoring shows that there are more classes in Chinese and mathematics, but fewer classes in physical education and art. For example, in the fourth grade, 72% of Chinese classes in schools are more than 6 classes, 67.2% of mathematics classes are more than 5 classes, 44.3% of physical education classes are less than 3 classes, and 12.9% of art classes are less than 3 classes. In addition, in science classes, students participate in hands-on experiments and practices. For example, 38.7% of eighth-grade students have done three or more hands-on experiments in physics class this semester, and 23.8% have never done hands-on experiments. ?

6. Some teachers' inquiry teaching ability needs to be improved?

It is found that the ability of science teachers to carry out inquiry teaching needs to be improved. 63% of the fourth-grade science teachers, 665,438+0.2% of the eighth-grade physics teachers, 75.5% of the eighth-grade biology teachers and 80.7% of the eighth-grade geography teachers are at a low or low level. In addition, 79% of the fourth-grade moral education teachers and 7 1.3% of the eighth-grade moral education teachers think that their professional knowledge can not meet the teaching needs, especially in legal knowledge, geographical knowledge, mental health knowledge and so on. ?

7. Need to improve the utilization rate of teaching resources?

According to the report, among the schools with libraries, 37.2% of the fourth-grade students and 50.5% of the eighth-grade students have never been to the library in this monitoring semester; Among the schools equipped with science laboratories, 39. 1% of the fourth-grade science teachers, 39.7% of the eighth-grade physics teachers and 59.4% of the eighth-grade biology teachers said that they never used them or seldom used them. In schools with special art classrooms, 39% of the fourth-grade and 365,438+0.9% of the eighth-grade music teachers never or rarely use special art classrooms, while 55.3% of the fourth-grade and 565,438+0.5% of the eighth-grade music teachers never or rarely use special art classrooms. ?
