The second mode is the satellite teaching viewing point: equipped with satellite receiving system, computer, TV set, DVD player and teaching CD required for 1-6 grade. Through the broadband transmission network of China Education Satellite, a large number of high-quality educational resources can be received quickly, and at the same time, it has the function of playing teaching CDs. The equipment targets are township central primary schools and village complete primary schools. The estimated investment per point is 6.5438+0.6 million yuan.
Mode 3 is computer classroom: equipped with satellite receiving system, network computer classroom, multimedia classroom and teaching CD playing equipment. Its characteristic is that it not only has all the functions of Mode 2, but also provides students with a learning environment under the network conditions. Equipped with objects for rural junior high schools. The average estimate per point is 6.5438+0.5 million yuan.
On the basis of completing the basic configuration according to the three modes, all localities can determine the corresponding configuration standards according to the actual situation. Rural education plays a fundamental, leading and overall role in building a well-off society in an all-round way. The focus and difficulty of China's education is in rural areas, especially in rural primary and secondary schools in the central and western regions, with 65,438+62 million students, accounting for 8 1% of the total number of primary school students. These areas, especially the rural areas in the central and western regions, have a huge gap with developed areas in terms of teaching conditions, educational resources, teacher level and teaching quality. The best way to solve this problem is to implement modern distance education project, promote the enjoyment of high-quality educational resources in urban and rural areas, improve the quality and efficiency of rural education, strengthen teacher training, actively introduce external high-quality educational resources, improve teaching quality, narrow the educational gap between the east and the west, and realize the balanced development of basic education. At the same time, it provides farmers with economic and market information, helps them learn scientific planting and breeding techniques, and further promotes local social and economic development.
The project plans to equip about 1 10000 rural primary school teaching points with teaching CD playing equipment and complete sets of teaching CDs in about five years, and provide high-quality education and teaching resources for about 5 100000 primary school students in these teaching points to solve the problems of weak teachers and low teaching quality; 384,000 rural primary schools in China have been initially built into satellite teaching observation points, which basically meet the demand of 814200 rural primary school students for quality education and teaching resources. At the same time, the satellite teaching viewing point will also become the main support of modern distance education for rural party member cadres determined by the central government. Make 37,500 rural junior high schools in China basically have computer classrooms, so that 310.09 million rural junior high schools can gradually enjoy high-quality education and teaching resources and receive information technology education like 34.95 million urban junior high schools, laying a good foundation for promoting the informationization of the whole society. The central government has invested 364 million yuan in the pilot demonstration project of modern distance education, and has equipped 57 140 sets of teaching CD-ROMs, 50 16 satellite teaching viewing points and 465,438+for 29 primary schools and 2,350 junior high schools in rural areas of 12 western provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government) and Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps.
In the pilot project of modern distance education in rural primary and secondary schools, the state invested 654.38 billion yuan and local support 965.438 billion yuan. In 65.438+02 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government) in the western region, 6 provinces in the central region, Shandong Province and Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps, 20,977 teaching CD playback points, 48,605 satellite teaching receiving points and 70,000 satellite teaching receiving points were built on a pilot basis. Covering about 25% of rural primary and secondary schools in western provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government) and 2 1% of rural primary and secondary schools in six central provinces. Covering 9.25 million primary and secondary school students in the western pilot provinces, with a student coverage rate of 27%; There are 6.44 million primary and middle school students in the pilot provinces in central China, with a student coverage rate of 2 1%. At the same time, the pilot areas cover nine pilot places (cities, states) and counties of modern distance education for cadres in rural party member determined by the central authorities. 1, leaders attach importance to it and the organization is sound.
The Ministry of Education, the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Finance set up an inter-ministerial coordination group for modern distance education in rural primary and secondary schools to study and formulate pilot work plans and implementation plans, uniformly deploy pilot work, organize implementation, supervise and coordinate major issues in the pilot work, and effectively guarantee the macro guidance of the project.
According to the requirements of the three ministries and commissions that the pilot work should be mainly organized and implemented by the provincial people's governments, the governments of all provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government) really regard the pilot work as a major event to promote rural education and its economic and social development, and put it on the important agenda. The provincial government is responsible for the pilot work. According to the overall planning, project implementation management measures and relevant standards and norms, combined with local conditions, formulate pilot work plans and programs, and be responsible for pilot work organization and project construction. All provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government) have set up a leading group for the pilot work of modern distance education in rural primary and secondary schools headed by the competent government, and set up a pilot office, which is responsible for construction planning, scheme demonstration, bidding, equipment application and management, research on the integration of resource construction and education and teaching, and project inspection and acceptance. Local (city, state) and county governments have also set up leading groups and working institutions headed by government leaders to be responsible for the implementation of the project. During the pilot work, leading groups at all levels sent a large number of inspection teams, coordination teams, guidance teams and expert working groups to the front line, effectively ensuring the smooth progress of the pilot work. Each project school has also set up a work leading group headed by the principal. Clear responsibilities at all levels, smooth coordination from top to bottom. It has achieved sound work organization, personnel in place, clear responsibilities, clear objectives and tasks, and provided organizational leadership and personnel guarantee for the smooth implementation of the pilot work.
2. Perfect management system and effective measures.
The Ministry of Education, the National Development and Reform Commission, and the Ministry of Finance have formulated a series of documents to implement the pilot project of modern distance education in rural primary and secondary schools, so as to guide the project implementation and standardize the pilot work. It mainly includes: the pilot work plan of modern distance education project in rural primary and secondary schools (Jian Jiao [2003] No.22); "Audit Opinions on the Pilot Work Plan of Modern Distance Education Project in Rural Primary and Secondary Schools" (J.F. [2004] No.30); Technical Scheme for Terminal Receiving Station of Modern Distance Education Project in Rural Primary and Secondary Schools (Jiaojiting [2004] No.5); Measures for the Administration of Bidding and Purchasing of Modern Distance Education Pilot Project Equipment in Rural Primary and Secondary Schools (No.8 [2004] of Jiaojiting); Notice on publishing the list of qualified suppliers for equipment bidding and purchasing of modern distance education pilot projects in rural primary and secondary schools (Jian Jiao Han [2004] No.37); Administrative Measures for Acceptance of Modern Distance Education Pilot Project in Rural Primary and Secondary Schools (J.J.D. [2004] 14); And the implementation plan of the pilot work in the pilot provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government) and Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps approved by the Inter-ministerial Coordination Group Office of the pilot work of modern distance education in rural primary and secondary schools.
According to the requirements of the three ministries and commissions, various localities have formulated corresponding implementation plans and management measures for the pilot work. The implementation process of bidding, equipment receiving and installation, operation and maintenance, teacher training, resource construction and teaching application of the pilot work has been guaranteed.
3, project fund account management, matching funds to implement.
The funds needed for the pilot work shall be borne by local governments, and the state shall give appropriate subsidies according to the economic and social development of different regions. 2/3 of the total capital invested by the central government and13 invested by local governments in the western region; 65438+ 0/3 of the total capital invested by the central government and 2/3 of the total capital invested by local governments in the central region; The funds needed for the pilot work in Shandong Province are mainly raised by local governments, and the central government gives appropriate subsidies to difficult areas. Set up a special account for provincial pilot work funds, and all project funds will be included in the account management.
The pilot areas adopt various ways to implement matching funds, and their working strategies and specific measures have their own characteristics, among which the provincial finance bears the main responsibility for matching funds. Most of the pilot areas have taken the form of provincial, municipal and county support; For example, Guizhou Province has implemented matching funds with a ratio of 5: 2: 3 among provinces, cities and counties. A few pilot areas are supported by provinces and prefectures, provinces and counties, or prefectures and counties. For example, the local matching funds in Anhui Province are borne by the provinces and counties, 80% by the provincial finance and 20% by the county finance. The matching funds of Henan Province shall be borne by the provincial and municipal finance according to 1: 1; The local matching funds in Jilin Province are coordinated by regions (cities) and counties, and the province arranges funds to expand the pilot scope. In view of whether to implement the "one-fee system", whether it belongs to the Three Gorges reservoir area and the differences in economic development, Chongqing has implemented different proportions of district and county matching funds. In some pilot areas, the matching funds shall be borne by the provincial finance. For example, the matching funds in Inner Mongolia are all borne by the finance of the autonomous region.
4. The bidding process is standardized and the effect is good.
The Ministry of Education, the National Development and Reform Commission, and the Ministry of Finance issued the Measures for the Management of Bidding and Purchasing of Modern Distance Education Pilot Project Equipment in Rural Primary and Secondary Schools (Ji Jiao Hall [2004] No.8). In order to ensure the quality of bidding and purchasing, the Inter-Ministerial Coordination Group Office organizes pre-qualification of equipment suppliers and integrators, and selects well-known domestic enterprises to participate in the project construction.
According to national laws and regulations, the Measures for the Administration of Bidding and Purchasing of Modern Distance Education Pilot Project Equipment in Rural Primary and Secondary Schools clearly stipulates all important links of bidding, and emphasizes three points: First, the provincial education administrative department is the tenderer; Second, only qualified integrators and qualified products can participate in bidding; Third, the whole process of bidding and procurement is subject to supervision and inspection by the discipline inspection and supervision department. The use of special funds for pilot work shall be audited by the audit department.
In order to guide the provinces to do a good job in bidding and purchasing engineering equipment, the Inter-Ministerial Coordination Group Office specially held a national bidding training class, and combined with the actual situation of the pilot work, 70 comrades in charge of bidding in each pilot province were trained in relevant laws, regulations and working procedures, which laid a good foundation for the bidding work in each province.
All localities attach great importance to the organization and leadership of the bidding work, adhere to the principle of "openness, justice and fairness", organize capable teams, establish and improve various systems, formulate tenders scientifically and reasonably, act in strict accordance with the law, standardize operations, and formulate tenders in light of the actual situation of rural primary and secondary schools in various places. The whole bidding work has achieved good results. For example, the bidding work in Hunan Province is serious, the discipline inspection department participates in supervision throughout the process, and the specific organization method is also innovative. First, the bidding agency is produced through bidding; The second is to pre-qualify the ingredients, equipment, building materials and software suppliers not involved in the pre-qualification of the three provincial ministries; Third, all supporting equipment and building materials are purchased through bidding.
The bidding results show that the provincial organization bidding can not only combine the local reality, but also implement the local project implementation responsibility and supervision responsibility, which has good scale benefits. 34-inch color TV set price 1600- 1700 yuan, DVD player price 250-300 yuan; The average computer classroom is about 6.5438+0.5 million yuan.
5. The training work is solid and the backbone team is initially formed.
In the pilot work, three national-level training courses have been held successively, and more than 0/000 backbone teachers and administrators have been trained in the pilot areas. All the pilot areas have achieved four levels of training at the provincial, city (prefecture), county and school levels.
From the beginning of the pilot work, the pilot provinces have always carried out the training of key teachers throughout the whole process of project implementation. The training plan for the backbone teachers in the pilot of modern distance education in rural primary and secondary schools in this province has been formulated, and the training content, teaching objectives and class schedule of the backbone teachers have been clarified. According to the uneven level of students, we take students as the center and adopt various ways and methods such as class teaching to teach. After provincial, municipal, county and school-based training, some backbone teachers not only undertake the daily management of the school, but also have considerable software and hardware maintenance work. From the discussion with the trained teachers, the trainees are satisfied with the teaching arrangement and organization and management of the training, and basically meet the expected training requirements, which is remarkable in practice. On-site evaluation shows that more than 80% students can independently install satellite equipment and debug computer data receiving system, train other teachers in the school, download resources and use them for education and teaching. According to the requirements of the project plans of three national ministries, the Shaanxi Provincial Department of Education put forward the working principles of "configuration-based, training-focused, scientific research-oriented, and application-centered", and compiled the "Training Management Manual for Modern Distance Education Project Teachers in Rural Primary and Secondary Schools in Shaanxi Province", which includes both the requirements of receiving training at the base and the requirements of school-based training, such as the working principles and the construction of management system. At the same time, it also trained the methods of strengthening management. Ningxia has created the experience of "resource teachers" (teachers trained by superiors) and "one belt and five belts", requiring each teacher trained by superiors to bring five other teachers to learn to use technology. Targeted retraining activities in Guizhou have enabled front-line teachers to learn with problems, which has improved the training effect and promoted the sustainable development of the project. Gansu Province actively promotes participatory training methods and encourages rural teachers to express their opinions and cooperate in learning through the Internet. Hunan combines training with on-the-spot observation, first builds experimental sites, studies while observing, sums up experience and gradually popularizes them.
The education administrative departments at all levels have established an effective incentive mechanism, and incorporated the application of training and modern distance education in education and teaching activities into the year-end assessment and professional title evaluation system of teachers, which greatly mobilized the enthusiasm of teachers to apply modern educational technology to educational activities. The teachers participating in the training in each school are excellent members selected through fierce competition.
6. Accelerate the construction of resources to serve education and teaching.
In order to promote the real effect of modern distance education project in rural primary and secondary schools, the Ministry of Education, local education administrative departments at all levels, schools, enterprises and institutions have carried out a lot of work in the construction of basic education resources. The Ministry of Education has set up a basic education resource center by integrating the forces of relevant units within the Ministry, further strengthening the construction of basic education resource pool, synchronous classrooms and satellite data resources and the speed of resource collection, introduction, evaluation and integration to serve education and teaching.
Through the implementation of the pilot work, according to the requirements of student-oriented, classroom-oriented and teaching-oriented, the construction of educational and teaching resources in the three modes has already had a certain foundation. The Ministry of Education has collected, screened and reviewed 5272 teaching CDs of1116 items sent by 34 publishing units. People's Education Publishing House organized the development and production of related CDs covering subjects from 65438 to 0-6 in primary schools.
China Education Television broadcasts 1 1.5 hours of "classroom in the air" TV programs and information broadcast programs on the website of the Ministry of Education every day, including "synchronous classroom in primary and secondary schools", "teacher training" and "practical technology in rural areas", which can be received by all primary and secondary schools. The Ministry of Education-Li Ka-shing Western Education Poverty Alleviation Project has built a teaching resource library with a total capacity of 1.48 GB. After being integrated with the resources collected in the pilot work, this resource pool will be used as a satellite digital dedicated channel for modern distance education projects in rural primary and secondary schools, which will be open to rural primary and secondary schools all over the country free of charge and will be well received by rural primary and secondary school teachers. Director of Education of huangping county, Guizhou Province said happily: The content of resources is very good. Only receiving one resource for free can reduce the expenditure of several hundred thousand yuan for the county every year.
The "National Cultural Information Sharing Project" jointly promoted by the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Culture includes a large number of e-books, patriotic educational films, literary and drama programs, etc. It will be provided to rural primary and secondary schools free of charge through CD-ROM, satellite broadcasting and other forms.
According to the national curriculum standards, local education administrative departments organize the development and production of high-quality education and teaching resources with local characteristics and suitable for rural primary and secondary schools. For example, based on the provincial network resource center, Sichuan Province has established the "Sichuan Distance Education Resource Service Center" to encourage and support the pilot areas to establish regional distance education resource service centers with local characteristics. Guide and standardize the comprehensive application of all kinds of educational and teaching resources software, and establish a long-term operation mechanism of educational resources supporting services with the synchronous development of three modes and curriculum reform. Hebei strengthens the research on resource construction and teaching methods, and requires the publishing units of primary and secondary schools in the province to develop and produce teaching CDs that match the teaching materials, so as to promote the diversification of teaching resources for quality education.
7. Pay close attention to teaching application, and the effect is preliminary.
In order to strengthen the application of these three models in education and teaching, a site meeting of modern distance education pilot work was held in Gansu in June 2004. This paper preliminarily summarizes and exchanges the experience of three modes of modern distance education in rural primary and secondary schools in education and teaching, and studies how to make full use of modern distance education means to improve the quality of rural primary and secondary education and promote the all-round development of rural economy and society after studying and deploying hardware environment. The meeting observed the education and teaching process in Tianshui, characterized by popularizing the application of teaching CD-ROM, and three modes generally entered the classroom. It is emphasized that we should give full play to the functions and functions of the three modes, closely combine them with the usual teaching activities, and let modern distance education equipment enter the classroom, face students and be used for teaching, so that rural students can enjoy high-quality educational resources under the blue sky like urban students. Tianshui Conference has had a profound and extensive influence in the pilot work, and various localities have held on-site meetings to implement it. The idea of "focusing on the application of student-oriented education and teaching with the goal of improving the quality of education and teaching" has been widely recognized in the pilot areas.
Local education departments actively promote the application of the three models in rural education, and make plans for the development of modern distance education teaching activities. Integrate strength, strengthen teaching and research, arrange class schedules and arrange teaching. The application of modern educational technology and new teaching methods in the teaching process of various subjects has gradually realized the changes in the presentation of teaching content, students' learning methods and teachers' teaching methods. The Education Bureau of Xixiang County, Shaanxi Province, exerts the radiation function of the central school and uses three modes to institutionalize teachers' organization of educational and teaching exchange activities. Ningxia has established a demonstration site of three modes of modern distance education project in rural primary and secondary schools, played a leading and radiating role, and actively carried out the application activities of "three modes" of modern distance education in rural primary and secondary schools.
These three models have produced good results after being applied to classroom teaching. As the principals of some schools said, "the mountains can no longer stop knowledge"; "The implementation of the project has a positive impact and significance on the balanced development of urban and rural education, the modernization of basic education and the improvement of teaching quality"; It has brought them three changes: the change of teachers' teaching concept; Changes in teaching methods and students' study habits. Sanduo: More teachers take the initiative to collect teaching information; Consciously learn more and teach more; There are more students studying independently. Third, improve: improve the efficiency of classroom teaching; Improve students' interest in learning; Improve the level of teaching and scientific research.
Most students think that modern distance education is a good helper for their study. The teaching content is rich, vivid and intuitive, easy to understand, willing to learn, easy to understand and remember. For example, English courses make students pronounce English more accurately and speak Mandarin more fluently.
Governments at all levels have made full use of the platform built by rural distance education to implement modern distance education for cadres and technical training for farmers in rural party member, and achieved good results. Various applications to promote rural social and economic development are gradually being promoted. Many project schools provide information technology skills training to party member, cadres and rich leaders in the region, so that they can initially have the skills of browsing and searching information with computers, and at the same time popularize practical technologies suitable for local economic development, burn the video materials of planting and breeding technology sent by distance education into VCD, and spread them to villagers free of charge. Zunyi City and Qiandongnan Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture are pilot areas of modern distance education for rural party member cadres determined by the central government. Relying on rural primary and secondary schools, these two areas have provided places and conditions for distance education for 100% of township party committees and more than 70% of rural party branches, realizing resource integration and fund saving. At the same time, rural primary and secondary schools in the pilot areas, in order to better meet the learning needs of rural party member cadres and the masses, give full play to the role of students, and notify parents to watch at the designated time. The school has also established an information library, which is borrowed by students free of charge to help parents borrow and watch at home, which not only realizes the goal of "what parents need, what the school plays, but also ensures the timely return of program courseware". In order to avoid the "conflict" between school education and the education of cadres and the masses in rural party member, and improve the efficiency of equipment use, "5+2" and other learning forms are generally adopted in the pilot areas in combination with the characteristics of school education and the actual production and life in rural areas. In other words, teachers and students of the school are used for education and teaching from Monday to Friday, and Saturday and Sunday nights and holidays are the time for cadres and the masses in rural party member to study and train. According to the characteristics of agricultural production season, the study content is reasonably arranged, and the ways of less study in busy farming season, more study in slack farming season, less study in sunny days and more study in rainy days are adopted, which basically solves the "conflict" between school education and cadre education in rural party member and achieves the effect of "double promotion and two mistakes"
8. The mechanism of sustainable development is taking shape, and some experiences have been accumulated.
In order to ensure the sustainable development of the project and establish an effective and operable sustainable development support system, all localities have actively explored in practice and created many new experiences in equipment maintenance, teacher training, resource construction, technical and management team building and daily operation.
-all localities have increased their efforts to arrange or increase public funds for primary and secondary schools within the fiscal budget; In areas where the "one-fee system" is newly implemented, the problem of operating expenses can be solved through information technology charges in miscellaneous fees; If there is a slight savings, it can also support the supplement of education and teaching resources and some equipment.
-Local education departments have worked closely with the successful equipment suppliers and engineering integrators, and signed major equipment maintenance contracts for about three years, stipulating the responsibilities of the successful enterprises in equipment maintenance.
-Establish a county-level maintenance team to cooperate with equipment suppliers and engineering integrators for maintenance. For example, yuqing county Audio-visual Education Center signed an agency maintenance contract with equipment suppliers and engineering integrators during the equipment warranty period, and the equipment suppliers paid a certain maintenance fee to the county audio-visual education center every year, and the county audio-visual education center was responsible for equipment maintenance, which not only solved the problem of slow maintenance response, but also partially solved the contradiction of tight cost;
-establish a mechanism to stabilize the team. In many places, the application of training and modern distance education to education and teaching activities is included in the system of year-end assessment and professional title evaluation of teachers. The education administrative department signs a contract with the teachers who participate in the training, and if the students want to leave, they will refund the training fees of other teachers' training;
-Accumulate resources through various forms. The excellent courseware made by teachers is gathered and shared by all localities in various forms. In the construction of resources in the pilot areas of Hunan Province, besides increasing investment and purchasing quantity, we should also concentrate on self-development and inter-school enjoyment, with special emphasis on application and enjoyment, instead of generally advocating self-made courseware. Relying on a middle school or a primary school, they set up a research group (room) of modern distance education teaching center to carry out three modes of teaching exchange activities. The Engineering Coordination Group Office organized experts to inspect and accept the engineering construction in Guizhou, Shaanxi, Ningxia, Chongqing, Hunan, Anhui and other provinces. The acceptance team spoke highly of the effectiveness of the pilot work, and combined with feedback from various places, summarized the following basic experiences.
1, the three models basically adapt to the reality of rural primary and secondary schools in China, and the implementation of the project has delivered high-quality educational resources to the countryside.
The application of teaching CD-ROM will introduce excellent courses into the classroom of rural primary schools, and CD-ROM teaching or auxiliary teaching is widely used in rural primary schools, which will gradually transform teachers from imparting knowledge into tutors, guides and organizers of students' classroom teaching. Satellite teaching observation points send course resources, teaching materials and "air classes" to students; Computer classrooms in rural junior high schools have created conditions for offering compulsory courses in information technology, and applied information technology to teaching. Through the pilot, rural primary and secondary schools have applied the three models to education and teaching, which has promoted the improvement of education and teaching quality and initially formed some teaching methods suitable for local schools. The three construction modes adopted in the implementation of modern distance education project in rural primary and secondary schools are economical and practical, which are in line with the reality of rural primary and secondary schools and basically adapt to the level of rural economic and social development in China.
2. The project adopts the centralized contiguous implementation mode, which is conducive to strengthening the guidance of engineering construction and the popularization and application of the three modes.
Through centralized distribution, all provinces can mobilize their strength throughout the province and strengthen the guidance and supervision of the construction of contiguous distribution areas. Centralized distribution in the local area has initially formed an information environment, which has created favorable conditions for popularizing modern distance education and enjoying high-quality education and teaching resources, making modern distance education in rural primary and secondary schools an important part of local basic education. In concentrated contiguous destitute areas, through observing teaching, touring guidance, teacher training and other forms, the effective methods of applying the three education and teaching modes are actively explored, which has played an important role in improving the overall education quality of local rural primary and secondary schools. Modern distance education in rural primary and secondary schools has formed economies of scale, which can be combined with the reality of rural education reform and development, the ability and level of running schools in various places and schools, the ongoing curriculum reform, and the local rural economic and social development, thus promoting the leap-forward development of rural education. At the same time, the centralized contiguous implementation reduces the logistics cost and maintenance cost of the project, and also makes it possible to localize maintenance based on the county, and improves the support ability of daily operation.
3. The investment mechanism of the project basically adapts to the reality of rural areas in China, and the project construction funds can be shared and implemented by governments at all levels.
Local governments are responsible for project investment, and the state gives subsidies according to the economic and social development of different regions. With the development of social economy, the investment ability of local finance is enhanced; The local government has invested a certain amount of money, which has also increased the sense of responsibility of seeking truth from facts to promote the project. Local matching funds are implemented in various ways. Most pilot areas are supported by provincial, prefectural and county levels, a few pilot areas are supported by provincial, prefectural and county levels or prefectural and county levels, and some pilot areas are supported by provincial finance. Governments at all levels attach great importance to it. According to local conditions, they took a number of measures, formulated different matching funds schemes and set up special fund accounts to ensure the implementation of matching funds. The pilot shows that the investment mechanism of this project basically conforms to the reality of rural areas in China.
4. These three modes can play an important role in the modern distance education of cadres in rural party member, and improve the ability of education to serve agriculture.
Three modes of rural primary and secondary schools in the pilot areas have built a modern distance education platform, which has played an important role in the modern distance education of rural party member cadres. In the pilot areas of modern distance education for rural party member cadres in Guizhou, Hunan and other provinces determined by the central government, rural middle schools have become the main positions for the education of rural party member cadres of local township party committees, and rural primary schools have become the main places for the education of party member cadres of local village party branches, realizing the integration of resources and saving capital investment. At the same time, the pilot work has effectively promoted the "three education plans as a whole" and improved the ability of education to serve rural economic and social development. Rural primary and secondary schools are gradually becoming rural cultural centers, party member cadre education centers and agricultural technology extension and training centers.
5. The pilot work is well organized and can ensure the smooth implementation of the project.
In order to ensure the smooth implementation of the project, the three ministries and commissions issued a set of rules and regulations. Documents such as Management Measures for Bidding and Purchasing of Equipment for Modern Distance Education Pilot Project in Rural Primary and Secondary Schools, Technical Scheme for Terminal Receiving Station of Modern Distance Education Pilot Project in Rural Primary and Secondary Schools, and Management Measures for Acceptance of Modern Distance Education Pilot Project in Rural Primary and Secondary Schools have been issued. In order to ensure the quality of bidding and purchasing, the Inter-Ministerial Coordination Group Office organized the pre-qualification of equipment suppliers and integrators, and selected well-known domestic enterprises to participate in the project construction, which achieved good economic benefits. All provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government) have set up leading groups headed by provincial governments and attended by relevant departments such as education, development and reform, and finance. , and set up a leading group office in the Education Department, and established a team of work and management experts including project management, training, technical services, bidding and procurement, evaluation and acceptance, project equipment application, and research on education and teaching methods, which provided a reliable guarantee for the implementation of the project.
6. Resource construction and teacher training need to be further strengthened.
In the pilot work, the Inter-Ministerial Coordination Group Office has extensively collected high-quality education and teaching resources for the society, covering curriculum resources, teaching materials, special education, teacher training and other resources. People's Education Publishing House has produced 180 teaching CDs in small classes, which are suitable for rural primary and secondary schools. China Education Television broadcasts the TV program Classroom in the Air for 1 1.5 hours every day. The three ministries and commissions increased their efforts to build resources, further integrated resources and provided them to rural primary and secondary schools free of charge. However, from the perspective of teaching application, there is a serious shortage of resources to adapt to teachers' teaching, students' learning and quality education The state needs to further increase investment in the construction of high-quality education and teaching resources to ensure the benefit of the project.
Teachers selected by engineering distribution schools are generally trained in the pilot areas. However, the pilot work shows that for rural teachers, one training is far from reaching the level of skilled application and meeting the needs of education and teaching, and there is a process of continuous training and repeated training. The application level of modern distance education in schools is still relatively low. It is necessary to further strengthen the training of teachers and managers, especially the training of education and teaching methods.
