According to the Ministry of Education, after the National Education Conference, local education conferences were held on the basis of in-depth investigation, especially for deepening the teacher evaluation system. For example, many colleges and universities explore the implementation of classified evaluation and carry out multi-dimensional and multi-level evaluation to reverse the situation that teachers' evaluation relies too much on "diplomas, papers and hats", so that teachers' contributions in teaching, scientific research, personnel training and social services can be reasonably reflected. In particular, outstanding achievements in education, teaching and teacher's ethics assessment have been highlighted. In the promotion of teachers' professional titles, there are many phenomena of "teaching well without papers".
It can be said that getting rid of "only papers, only titles, only academic qualifications, only awards" and returning to the essence of education has achieved initial results. In order to make teachers generally pay attention to teaching, universities generally pay attention to the quality of personnel training, and it is also necessary to get rid of the "four talents" from the school to the whole society and create a good social atmosphere to get rid of the "four talents".
Generally speaking, China's education department is promoting the reform of evaluation system to get rid of the "four virtues" of colleges and universities, but public opinion is still advocating "four virtues" consciously or unconsciously. For example, after the list of applicants for projects funded by the National Science Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars was published, public opinion immediately ranked universities according to the number of "Jieqing", that is, they continued to use "Jieqing" as a hat to evaluate talents and evaluate the achievements of talent construction in universities. Breaking the "hat-only theory" is to make the scientific research funding projects and talent funding plans return to the projects and plans themselves, and the projects or selected plans cannot become talents. Except for funds, other wages and benefits cannot be linked to identity.
Last year, the National Natural Science Foundation of China issued an open letter "Avoiding Alienated Use of Talent Projects" in official website. It is mentioned in the letter that the person in charge of the talent project funded by the Natural Science Foundation is not an honorary title, and it is necessary to avoid the alienation of talent projects into "titles" and "honors", which are directly linked to various treatments. Obviously, most public opinion still regards this as "title" and "honor".
This is not conducive to breaking the "four virtues" in colleges and universities. When public opinion pays utilitarian attention to the performance of universities in applying for projects, participating in evaluation and selecting talents, universities have to pay attention to achievements, awards, papers and hats. Because once an indicator drops and ranks lower, it may cause doubts. For colleges and universities, the most flattering way is to actively make a gesture of breaking the "four Wei" on the surface, but to continue to adhere to the "four Wei" in the bones will get actual "praise". This is the same as breaking the score-only theory and admission-only theory in the basic education stage. Once the enrollment rate of famous schools drops, it may cause parents' dissatisfaction and encounter public criticism.
Therefore, it is necessary to further reform the evaluation of running a school and distinguish between public opinion evaluation and professional evaluation. We can't simply cater to public opinion evaluation and replace professional evaluation with public opinion evaluation. We should actively promote the evaluation of running schools in colleges and universities. In professional evaluation, we should pay attention to the connotation and quality of school education, teaching and academic research, rather than utilitarian quantitative evaluation. Promoting professional evaluation is the basis of breaking the "four talents", including the support of teachers' classified evaluation and professional evaluation. Without professional evaluation, classified evaluation is likely to be based on quantitative indicators, and it is difficult to promote the construction of connotation and quality.
Of course, public opinion evaluation (social evaluation) exists at any time. In order to create a good educational ecology for the development of education in China, public opinion evaluation needs modern and progressive educational ideas, rather than pursuing utilitarianism. At present, public opinion is powerless to break the "four virtues" reform in colleges and universities. When talking about reform, criticize the drawbacks and problems of "four virtues", and use "four virtues" to bind the pace of school reform when actually evaluating running a school.
