The 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China clearly put forward "promoting the connotative development of higher education", which is of great and far-reaching significance for comprehensively improving the quality of higher education and promoting the scientific development of colleges and universities. Facing the new situation, higher education should fully implement the party's educational policy, continue to deepen reform and innovation, examine and think the development of higher education in the context of economic and social development, plan and promote it in the overall situation of scientific development, and take the connotative development road with quality improvement as the core, which has become the most urgent task for the reform and development of higher education in China.
The Transformation of Connotation Development Mode in Colleges and Universities
Running a school has changed from scale expansion to quality improvement. Establish a scientific concept of quality and regard improving the quality of education as the lifeline of higher education. Improving the quality of higher education should include personnel training, scientific research, social service, cultural inheritance and innovation and the improvement of the overall quality of university management. Colleges and universities should always take talent training as the center, take the quality of talent training as the primary criterion to measure the quality of running a school, take cultivating students' sense of social responsibility, innovative spirit and practical ability as the first idea and goal of running a school, take academic ability, quality and skills as an important reference system to measure the quality of education and leadership energy, concentrate resource allocation and capital investment on teaching, and promote teaching reform with the latest achievements of pedagogy, psychology, communication and information technology.
Orientation changes from convergence to characteristic development. The diversity of social demand for talents determines the diversity of the development of colleges and universities, which requires colleges and universities to handle the relationship between individuality and individuality. On the basis of following the law of higher education and the law of talent growth, connotation construction is regarded as the main line of development for universities to win in competition, and "promoting people's all-round development" is regarded as the same attribute of university talent training objectives, while "adapting to social needs" embodies the orientation and characteristics of universities. Implement differentiated development strategy, give play to comparative advantages, pay attention to historical accumulation and concise characteristics, innovate talent training and training characteristics, prosper distinctive campus culture, build distinctive core competitiveness, enhance discipline characteristics and strengthen the quality of talent training.
The mode has changed from relatively closed to open cooperation. Coordinate the overall situation at home and abroad, explore the mode of running schools with domestic cooperation and opening abroad, and inject new impetus and vitality into the talent training mode. Relying on superior disciplines, we will continue to deepen the cooperation between universities and governments, enterprises and research institutes. Further enhance the internationalization strategy, strengthen international exchanges and cooperation, introduce high-quality educational resources, fully release the vitality of talents, capital, information, technology and other elements, and continuously expand the breadth and depth of opening up.
The way has changed from administrative management to professor research. Actively explore the new mode of "professors' scholarship and democratic management", establish the dominant position of professors' scholarship, establish and improve the system and mechanism to guarantee professors' academic power and democratic power, give full play to professors' leading role in personnel training, scientific research, social service, cultural inheritance and innovation, discipline development and team building, and give full play to their positive role in democratic running schools and democratic management, and constantly improve the system construction of modern universities with China characteristics.
The standard has changed from single evaluation to multiple evaluation. According to the principles of meeting the needs of national and regional development, the reality of colleges and universities and the law of talent growth, we should establish a correct concept of quality and talent, take promoting people's all-round development and adapting to social needs as the fundamental standard to measure the level of talent training, establish and improve a scientific and standardized quality standard system, education and teaching evaluation supervision system and talent evaluation policy system, and realize the diversification of evaluation subjects, evaluation contents, evaluation standards and evaluation methods.
The Realization Path of Connotation Development in Colleges and Universities
