Summary of Randomness Level Evaluation of Undergraduate Teaching Work
Our school is a provincial key normal university in the western region. 200 1 The Ministry of Education evaluates the random level of undergraduate teaching in our school, which is the trust of the Ministry of Education and the glory of our school. Through the evaluation of the Ministry of Education, we deeply realize that the evaluation has played a very good role in promoting our school to constantly clarify the guiding ideology of running a school, improve the conditions of running a school, strengthen the teaching capital construction, improve the management level, improve the teaching work, enhance the vitality of the school to adapt to the development of education and local economic construction, and improve the level and quality of running a school.
After receiving the notice from the Ministry of Education about our undergraduate teaching evaluation, under the leadership and care of the people's government of the autonomous region and the Education Department, our school has made a lot of preparations for the evaluation of the Ministry of Education, which has promoted the construction of the school. Now the basic situation of our school's preparation for the evaluation, the effectiveness of the evaluation and the experience of doing a good job in the evaluation are summarized as follows:
First, the preparation of evaluation
In the preparation of teaching evaluation, the school mainly pays attention to the following aspects.
1, raise awareness and constantly mobilize the masses.
After receiving the notice from the Ministry of Education about the evaluation of our school before the summer vacation, the school leaders attached great importance to it and immediately held a meeting to study the evaluation scheme and index system formulated by the Ministry of Education together with the leaders of relevant functional departments. School leaders believe that undergraduate teaching evaluation is a historic opportunity to promote the construction and development of our school, which is undoubtedly of great significance to further clarify the guiding ideology of running a school, improve the conditions of running a school, strengthen the teaching infrastructure, and promote the scientific and standardized teaching management. At the same time, it is recognized that the most important thing is to mobilize and rely on the teaching staff, whether it is evaluation, teaching reform, discipline construction or other work. Therefore, the school has always put the ideological mobilization work through the whole process of evaluation. Through the meeting of school leaders, functional department leaders and department leaders, we learned and understood the evaluation scheme and index system, unified our thinking, and made clear the purpose and significance of the evaluation work. The guiding ideology and working ideas of school teaching evaluation are established, that is, to seize the opportunity, follow the principle of "promoting reform by evaluation, promoting construction by evaluation, combining evaluation with construction and focusing on construction", pay equal attention to both software and hardware, strive for "qualified hardware" and "excellent software" and promote the construction, reform and development of the school; The principles of teaching evaluation are determined, that is, extensive mobilization, full participation, practical rectification and practical results; Establish the daily standards of teaching evaluation, that is, build with excellent standards as the goal and strive for good evaluation results. When the school deploys the semester work, it clearly lists the evaluation of undergraduate teaching level as the top priority of the school work, and puts forward a comparative evaluation index system to comprehensively check and improve the teaching work of the whole school. The school has held many staff meetings and student meetings for extensive and in-depth mobilization. Liu Fengtai, Vice Minister of Education of People's Republic of China (PRC), and Huang Yu, Deputy Director of Education Department, were invited to mobilize teachers and students in the school. At the same time, the significance and requirements of evaluation are publicized through radio and school newspaper. By welcoming the mobilization and publicity of the Ministry of Education's evaluation, the whole school has strengthened its consciousness and initiative in self-evaluation, making improving teaching quality and management level, promoting reform through evaluation and promoting completion as the focus of attention and action of the whole school, forming an atmosphere in which everyone attaches importance to evaluation and participates in evaluation.
2. Establish the leading organization and working organization of teaching evaluation.
The school has set up an evaluation leading group with the secretary of the Party Committee and the principal as the team leader, other school leaders as the deputy team leader, and the main leaders of various functional departments as the team members, which is responsible for organizing and leading the evaluation work of the whole school and studying and solving major problems in the evaluation work. The leading group consists of an evaluation office headed by the director of the Academic Affairs Office and attended by comrades from major functional departments. Responsible for formulating the implementation plan of evaluation work, issuing the task book and collecting corresponding materials, sorting out and analyzing relevant evaluation materials, and writing the self-evaluation report. At the same time, an evaluation expert group composed of senior professors was set up, and six working groups led by school leaders, such as teaching infrastructure construction, study style construction, teaching style and office style construction, teaching reform and teaching management construction, campus environment construction and campus network construction, worked together to strengthen all aspects of construction. Each department has set up its own evaluation leading group and working group accordingly.
3. Prepare for teaching evaluation in a planned way.
(1) The school has made overall arrangements for teaching evaluation, worked out the evaluation work plan, and arranged the evaluation work as the focus of the semester work, thus ensuring the organic combination and coordinated development of teaching evaluation and daily teaching work.
(2) On the basis of being familiar with and mastering the evaluation index system and index evaluation grade standards, the evaluation office decomposes the indicators into relevant functional departments for compilation in the spirit of being proactive, adhering to standards, being strict and seeking truth from facts, and then forms the school's self-evaluation report and self-evaluation basis according to the self-evaluation materials and background materials submitted by various functional departments. The self-assessment report and self-assessment basis were finalized after many studies and revisions by school leaders, expert groups, functional departments and department leaders.
(3) According to the requirements of the evaluation plan, actively and carefully prepare the examination papers, graduation thesis and other materials selected by the Ministry of Education. When the Ministry of Education sent people to the school to pick up the examination papers and graduation thesis, they made corresponding preparations and submitted them on time.
(4) Through the publication of "Teaching Evaluation work briefing", timely publicize and report the evaluation information of the school to teachers and students.
(5) The marking experts in the school attend classes randomly according to the curriculum, hold teachers and students' symposiums randomly according to the roster of teachers and students, check laboratories and teaching files, extract test papers and graduation papers, give feedback to school leaders in time, put forward constructive opinions and suggestions, and do a lot of work. The intra-school evaluation expert group gave full play to the role of consultation and guidance, assisted the school leaders in making decisions, and promoted the self-evaluation work to go deeper.
(6) All teaching units and relevant functional departments should carefully check themselves according to the evaluation index system and evaluation standards, and rectify the existing problems in time.
(7) actively cooperate with the preliminary evaluation work of the local expert group organized by the Education Department of the autonomous region, so that the preliminary evaluation work of the expert group of the Education Department can proceed smoothly.
(8) Sufficient materials have been prepared for the evaluation experts of the Ministry of Education to visit the school: The Self-evaluation Report on the Random Level of Undergraduate Teaching in Guangxi Normal University has been compiled: the random level evaluation document of undergraduate teaching of the Ministry of Education and the first to seventh teaching evaluation work briefing compiled by the school have been published separately; The Report on Undergraduate Teaching of Guangxi Normal University and the Survey of Basic Situation of Guangxi Normal University were compiled and published. All reference materials are classified and boxed according to the secondary indicators.
The second is to promote reform by evaluation, and to evaluate the achievements and gains made in promoting construction.
Although the evaluation time is only four months, our school realizes that teaching evaluation is only a means, construction is the key, and improving teaching quality is the ultimate goal. Therefore, in the preparation of evaluation, all units of the school check their own work by comparing the evaluation index system, find out the gaps, weak links, problems and reasons, and implement the policy of "promoting reform by evaluation, promoting construction by evaluation, combining evaluation with construction, and focusing on construction". In the process of self-evaluation, on the basis of finding the gap, they actively create conditions, improve their work, and strive to achieve good results in various evaluation indicators, and many new jobs have been achieved.
1, which further strengthens the orientation and thinking of running a school and further establishes the central position of teaching.
In the process of teaching evaluation, the school has always placed a very prominent position on correcting the guiding ideology of running a school and establishing the central position of teaching. In particular, the evaluation work is guided by the spirit of Document No.4 of the Ministry of Education [20065438+0], which continuously improves the understanding of undergraduate teaching evaluation, unifies the ideological understanding of all teachers, formulates "Several Opinions on Strengthening the Current Teaching Work in Our School and Improving the Teaching Quality", and concretely implements Document No.4 of the Ministry of Education, which ensures the central position of undergraduate teaching from the system and lays a good foundation for the school to standardize teaching management and improve management level in the future. At the same time, the school made a decision to give repeated awards to the teaching achievements obtained at the national and autonomous levels, with the maximum bonus reaching 300,000 yuan, which fully reflected the inclination of the school to teaching work. Through the self-evaluation, all functional departments further clarified that teaching is the central work of the school, actively cooperated with the teaching management departments to do a good job in welcoming the evaluation, effectively solved the existing problems and difficulties for the teaching units, and provided an important guarantee for the smooth development of the evaluation and construction work. It can be said that through the evaluation, the whole school has further established the "three positions" such as "insisting on the central position of teaching in all school work", "insisting on the core position of teaching reform in all school reforms" and "insisting on the basic position of undergraduate teaching in all levels and types of education in the school", and the school-running orientation based on undergraduate education has been further strengthened. Everyone realizes that only by doing a good job in undergraduate education and improving the quality of undergraduate teaching can the school develop further.
2. School conditions and teaching infrastructure have been greatly improved.
In the process of self-evaluation, our school looks for gaps and problems against the evaluation criteria of the index system. Because Guangxi is a remote minority area and one of the economically underdeveloped provinces in the western region, the government's investment in higher education is limited, and the tuition of higher normal education in Guangxi is low. There is still a certain gap between our school and the evaluation index in teaching equipment, multimedia classrooms, microteaching, books and materials for new majors, campus network construction and so on. We realize that these efforts can be improved quickly and the pace of construction must be accelerated. Therefore, the school actively raised funds through loans and other means, and built more than 20 multimedia classrooms and 5 microteaches; Purchased more than 2 million yuan of new professional books and materials; Accelerate the laying of campus network optical fiber and the construction of network center; More than 20 million yuan of teaching instruments and equipment were added, which largely solved the problems of aging and insufficient experimental instruments and equipment, and the experimental teaching conditions were obviously improved. After careful argumentation and collective decision-making, we made a loan decision for the school and implemented the "emergency procurement project". In less than a month, we signed more than 40 procurement contracts, and installed and accepted more than 5,000 teaching instruments and equipment. Many teachers think that evaluation plays a great role in speeding up the construction and development of schools, and 20 days is equal to 20 years!
3. Strengthen teaching management and improve teaching quality monitoring system.
Through the evaluation, the teaching management of our school has been further strengthened. According to the new situation, the Academic Affairs Office revised the past teaching management rules and regulations, supplemented many new teaching management rules and regulations, selected and recorded the documents related to teaching work formulated and promulgated by the relevant departments of the state and autonomous regions and our school since June 1996, compiled a new teaching management manual, and distributed it to every teacher, teaching manager, and teachers and teaching management cadres consciously implemented it in their work; Each course system (revised) has developed a syllabus and an experimental syllabus, and compiled them into volumes; A question bank has been generally established for compulsory courses of various majors. The Academic Affairs Office organized forces to develop an online educational administration office system, which realized online course arrangement, course selection, grade management and quality control. Student teaching management information officer has been expanded from one in each grade to one in each class, which has strengthened the overall monitoring of teaching quality more comprehensively.
4. Strengthen the construction of school spirit, teaching spirit and study style.
Taking the evaluation as an opportunity, our school has taken effective measures to promote the formation of good school spirit, teaching style and study style. We organized a series of academic lectures in a planned way, institutionalized academic activities, created a good academic and cultural atmosphere, and further enriched students' extracurricular scientific and technological academic activities; During the evaluation period, leaders at all levels and teaching researchers were organized to attend lectures in depth, and teaching accidents were published online, which further improved the teaching style and curbed teaching accidents. In order to further promote the construction of study style in our school and meet the evaluation with practical actions, on the basis of the "great action of study style management", our school issues the implementation plan of study style construction and civilized education activities every month, guiding and educating students to start from themselves, starting from today and starting from small things, and actively participating in the construction of study style and civilized education activities. Government officials, leaders of various departments and student cadres often go to classrooms, dormitories and libraries to check students' evening self-study during the activity month. With the construction of study style and the implementation of the implementation plan of civilized education activity month, the whole school has formed a good study style. Most students can consciously study in the classroom at night and in the reading room of the library after class.
5. It has promoted the deepening of teaching reform.
Taking advantage of the good opportunity of evaluation, our school vigorously promotes the pace of teaching reform. After the initiation and organization of various departments, 130 projects have been applied for school-level educational reform projects, 103 projects have been approved by school experts, and 30 projects have also been approved by Guangxi Education Department. The total number of projects approved by Guangxi Education Department is among the best in Guangxi universities. In addition, since the evaluation, it has become a common practice for teachers to learn modern educational technology and use multimedia teaching methods to attend classes.
6. The campus environment is more beautiful.
In order to build a clean and beautiful campus, the school has accelerated the transformation of the campus environment for several months. If the biological building, the science complex building, the new library, the overseas students' apartment, the west gate and the scenic spots around the students' east area are completed, the total area will be 1 1 1,000 square meters; Leveling land 1 10,000 square meters, planting 5,800 square meters of turf and 5,602 flowers and trees; More than 10000 pots of flowers were placed in campus attractions, main places, office buildings and conference rooms. Replaced the old placards and road signs to make them more standardized and beautiful.
7, in view of the existing problems, make the rectification plan of teaching work.
After the evaluation, the expert group fully affirmed the achievements of our school and put forward pertinent opinions and suggestions for the shortcomings in teaching. After the expert group left the school, our school held a teacher summary meeting to give feedback to the teachers, and then held a meeting of the school's leading bodies and middle-level leading cadres to seriously study the opinions and suggestions of the expert group. On this basis, we put forward a rectification plan in line with the actual situation of the school. The guiding ideology of our school's rectification work is "to put forward measures for problems; Overall planning and step-by-step implementation; Highlight key points and pay attention to actual results; Combine construction and reform to consolidate the results. " The rectification measures are mainly reflected in the following aspects. First, further strengthen the construction of teaching staff, make specific plans in quantity and quality, and formulate corresponding measures in teaching and scientific research; The second is to further deepen the teaching reform, and formulate practical implementation plans in the aspects of training plan, curriculum construction, teaching reform project construction, teaching material construction, teaching content, methods and means; Third, continue to increase investment in teaching and ensure that 20% of the tuition income required by the "No.4 Document" of the Ministry of Education is invested in daily teaching; Fourth, strengthen the construction of teaching infrastructure such as experiments to solve the problem of insufficient teaching resources brought about by the expansion of enrollment; Fifth, strengthen teaching management and improve the monitoring mechanism of teaching quality; Sixth, implement the "campus digitalization and informatization project" to promote the modernization of school education; Seventh, strengthen discipline and specialty construction; Eighth, strengthen the construction of study style and promote the further improvement of study style; Ninth, strengthen the cultivation of students' practical ability, especially the teaching and practice of public courses such as computer and foreign languages; Ten is to attach importance to management innovation and system innovation, and cultivate talents with innovative spirit and ability, and so on.
Through this evaluation, we have also gained the following three gains: First, we have mobilized the enthusiasm of all teachers and students, enhanced the cohesion of the school, and become the strength and source of future work; Second, the cadres have been trained, and they have accumulated a lot of experience and enhanced their confidence in building a good school by successfully completing the work with great difficulties, high standards, heavy tasks and tight time; Third, through the guidance of self-evaluation and evaluation experts of the Ministry of Education, we can see the problems and difficulties in running schools more clearly and comprehensively, and further clarify the future direction, tasks and priorities.
Third, praise some experience in construction.
The random evaluation of undergraduate teaching by the Ministry of Education is a strict test for our school. Over the past few months, after preparing and accepting the on-the-spot investigation by the evaluation expert group of the Ministry of Education, we have deeply realized that the following points are very important to make the evaluation and construction work achieve good results.
I, unified understanding is the guide. Since our school was founded 70 years ago, this is the first time to accept the comprehensive inspection of our teaching work by the state. Whether the evaluation can be done well, promote and accelerate the development of the school and improve the level of running a school through evaluation depends on the mental state, work and study state of teachers and students, and on the enthusiasm and creativity of teachers and students. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the mobilization of teachers and students, unify the understanding of teachers and students in the whole school to the requirements of "promoting reform by evaluation, promoting construction by evaluation, combining evaluation with construction, and focusing on construction" put forward by the Ministry of Education, and take enhancing the cohesion and combat effectiveness of teachers and students in the whole school as an important measure to do a good job in evaluation. Through repeated mobilization, the school mobilized every teacher, every cadre, every employee and every student to meet the evaluation work with a positive attitude and a good mental state.
2. The attention of leaders is the key. This evaluation is of great significance. Among the 25 schools evaluated this time, our school is the representative of Guangxi universities and normal universities in the western region. The evaluation of undergraduate teaching in our university is not only a comprehensive inspection of the school, but also an inspection of higher normal education in the western region, as well as the education work of the local education administrative department and even the local government. Moreover, teaching is the central work of the school, involving all aspects of the school, and a good evaluation must rely on the attention of leaders. Leaders at all levels in our school attach great importance to this evaluation. The head of the school and department is personally responsible for organizing and leading the evaluation work, and often studies and solves the problems in the evaluation work. The leaders of the Education Department and relevant departments visited the school for many times to inspect, guide and evaluate the work, and solved many practical problems.
3. Perfect organization is the guarantee. It is very important to establish a strong organization to carry out all the work of evaluation and preparation. In the process of welcoming the evaluation and promoting the construction, the school has set up an evaluation leading group, an evaluation welcoming office, an in-school evaluation expert group and six construction working groups, and various teaching units have also set up corresponding organizations to ensure the orderly development of all work. All kinds of evaluation organizations at all levels in the school have made due contributions to the smooth progress of this evaluation. In particular, the evaluation expert group, composed of experts with rich teaching, management and evaluation experience, has attended more than 70 lectures at random in various teaching units for more than three months, randomly selected test papers, teaching plans and graduation thesis, inspected the laboratory, held a symposium for teachers and students 19 times (with nearly 200 participants), and seriously guided the teaching units to sort out teaching files, improve rules and regulations and help to revise them.
4. Serious self-evaluation is the foundation. Self-assessment is the most basic stage of assessment. Self-evaluation materials are the basis of expert evaluation, and also reflect the management level of the school to some extent. Our school attaches great importance to self-assessment, so that the background materials are true, objective, informative and reliable; Try to provide original materials for experts to consult; The self-assessment report has been studied and consulted many times. Because our school is rigorous, earnest and realistic in the self-evaluation stage, it has laid a good foundation for the visit and evaluation of the expert group of the Ministry of Education.
5. Increasing investment is the key. The Ministry of Education requires schools that carry out random evaluation of undergraduate teaching work to implement the principle of "promoting reform by evaluation, promoting construction by evaluation, combining evaluation with construction and focusing on construction" from beginning to end. To strengthen school construction, it is important to increase capital investment. In order to implement the evaluation principle put forward by the Ministry of Education, our school increased investment on the basis of the budget at the beginning of the year, updated teaching equipment supernormally and improved teaching conditions. Teachers and students report that the improvement of teaching conditions is one of the most remarkable achievements of this evaluation. Experts from the Ministry of Education also fully affirmed and spoke highly of our school's practice.
The random evaluation of undergraduate teaching in our university by the Ministry of Education is over. However, this teaching evaluation has a far-reaching impact on the reform and development of our school. Our school will take this teaching evaluation as a new starting point and do a good job of rectification according to the opinions and suggestions put forward by experts. Schools and teaching units have formulated rectification plans and are implementing them one by one. Fully implement the spirit of the document "Several Opinions on Strengthening Undergraduate Teaching in Colleges and Universities and Improving Teaching Quality" issued by the Ministry of Education, guide teachers and students to continue to carry forward the spirit of hard work and entrepreneurship, take reform as the driving force, strengthen the construction and management of schools in all aspects in a down-to-earth and high-quality manner, strive to cultivate outstanding talents, and make more contributions to basic education, local economy and national modernization in Guangxi.
