As a unique English level test unique to my country, it is gradually a "life and death" of the college rating and the degree in degree - four or six "名" Question Chinese Education
Our reporter Meizi Qing Xie Miao Feng
introduction
19 years ago, China saw that the foreign language level of the Chinese, especially college students, seriously lagging after the progress of science and technology, and began to start the national English four-level examination system, and put it on the national strategic significance. Importance.
In 19 years, it has never been thought that the "national examination" of China has become the largest single-departmental examination in China, and the number of monopoly course teaching exams in China. Two rounds of one year, three or four million people per round. Obviously, it is not just a course test in the school.
Society is unprecedented about the attention of college English four or six exams, and the "名" in the recent happening, the "名" of the students came, and the "degree lawsuit" of the student's "degree law" took together, and the case will be discounted. Reothermn and three; "Gunners" business is "supply and demand." Among the squad, Fudan and the two "senior professors" came out to angered this "national examination", saying that they have alienated into "hard indicators", "life and death", may wish to cancel!
This "suggestion" quickly became a major medium to reprint hotspots, and it seems to be tearing a scar. Everyone has something to say.
sound
As a horizontal exam, why don't college English four or six?
In fact, the voice of "canceling" has already smells, but in February, the Ministry of Education in February last year, "will not cancel the four or six exams". This reporter is still in listening, and the attitude of the education sector is still.
Professor Xia Jimei, Sun Yat-sen University is a member of the new National University English Examination Committee. She said that now is really love and hate to college English, but no matter what, now the 46th exam has become a highly recognized high-level The horizontal examination is already a national brand in my country. From the original intention of this test - learn from this point of view, this exam cannot cancel, which has a guide.
"As a college student, it is very important to master a foreign language. This truth is understanding, and it is because of this. Now college students will pay attention to learning good foreign languages, this is the bridge to the world, college English 46 The exam is nothing wrong with it as a horizontal test itself. "Professor Zhong Wehe, the Dean of Guangzhou Foreign Language University English College, also clearly said that" canceling "said.
In our interview, most of the teachers, the school said that the 46th exam is still needed, "canceling" is too light, it is the students themselves, and there are two opinions, some think it is best to cancel; Students say that if you cancel the four-six-level exam, then what to judge the English level of students? What's more, in the job search process, the credibility of the four-six-level certificate is still very high, and it is the "knocking tile" of the student finding.
But in the "cancel" sound, there is a question that comes to everyone, that is, millions of candidates should try every year, we need to do so huge talented talents in the end? In other words, is there a resilience of the 46-level examinations, rather than a knife, regardless of professional?
Students complain that all the four years and more than half of the time dedicated to public English, although this language seems to be unliked with their own professionalism, and as a person who comes to people is that the school is rushing through the school, now What is it? It is still a "dumb", "子", even watching a western film, and is also a "a mist".
In this regard, Professor Xia Jimei believes that each school can promote practical training in accordance with the university English teaching requirements of the Ministry of Education, and the 46th Examination is an end exam. How to guide students to study English and participate in the exam relationship, each The school should be treated in accordance with its actual situation, rather than rigidity, hard a knife. There are also experts to put forward, why not put "testing", "how to test" this self-sovereign, determined according to its own professional situation. The current title of the current title has been changed, why can't our college English can not be different from people?
status quo
College English 46 exams and degrees linked, originally an infinite expansion in English in college education
Professor Zhong Wehe said, what is the college English four or six exams? In fact, it is a test of how to achieve the level of English. Now the English exam is indeed a bit varied. If the students go into the school, they will learn for the exam, and the teacher teaching is also taught for the exam, which has become a test education.
Then why a horizontal test is alienated into the students who want to "tilter all", struggle to try the test exam? The reason is simple: many colleges and universities clearly stipulate that if not four or six levels, the degree can't get it. Although the Ministry of Education has not stipulated that the "Education Law" and "Degree Ordinance" have no relevant regulations, but many colleges and universities still consciously hook the four-six-level test scores and degrees.
So, is the four-six grade result? Is it a factor that students can reach degree requirements? The Subribration Ordinance is stipulated in the "Ordinance Eximation Measures", and the students have completed the requirements of the teaching plan ... The results of their course learning and graduation thesis have shown that the basic theory of this discipline has been better. , Specialized knowledge and basic skills, and have a preliminary ability to work in scientific research or serve as a special technical work, award a bachelor's degree.
The reality is that there are always many students who have never reached a degree certificate because of the four or six exams, and become the pain of the heart, although some students have excellent professional results.
It is also because of this, there is a student who can't get a degree in the four and six-level certificates, and the alma mater will tell the court.
What's even more, there is two long-term business for the 46th level of the website on the website. "I have to play, I am equal to buying a degree in two or three hundred pieces; failing, anyway, there is no degree, there is no delay, there is no delay." Guangdong has a college "Please shoot" I was lucky enough to succeed, I told reporters so that he revealed that the current market is "4 300 yuan, 600 yuan".
For the practice of college English four or six exams and degrees, it is the most important thing to make students' headaches, "声".
In fact, there are some "strong schools" such as Peking University, Tsinghua, Zhongda, and have not taken this "earth policy". For this conscious hook, many experts have deep worries, it is to say that this "earth policy" has become a command, causing a four-six-level exam to become a "hard indicator", "life and death", originally used as a tool English thus infinitely expands in college education, alienation into a symbol, which greatly exceeds a language.
Appreciate
English 46 is just a primer, and in many batches of the "Excellent" standard, our education does not alie
The handful hand is a meat. Why do the Ministry of Education have not planned, and the school has to hook English four or six grades and degrees, and it is listed as "school regulations", and there will always be some students who will not have a degree certificate every year. Therefore, there is thus lost some employment opportunities? We throw this problem to the school.
There is a school saying that foreign language teaching is very important, don't hook it, will students pay attention?
A doctor who did not want to disclose the name, he said that the Ministry of Education did not have a clear text to hook the degree in a four-six-level exam, but in today's various assessments, everyone has been recognized. Evaluate a high level of English teaching in a school, four or six is one of the important factors, can even be a signature, with such a baton, the school will naturally turn it, who will be willing to fall behind? ? The reason why "Strong School" is not doing so because they don't need anything to prove is also a "strong school", and for some general universities, if they don't pay close attention to the four-six-level exam, strive to have "pass" As a result, who is recognized about your teaching level? Undergraduate teaching level assessment work is a big event for a university, and the school is facing "Excellent" schools often have to give this whole school. The reporter saw that there is a "teaching effect" in this large assessment, there is an assessment of "English test, competition and publishing academic papers", often school will take the school in college English test (level 4) At the point of view, the number of participants is on - the number of participants, how much is, how much excellent, how much passing the rate, and that year, the national pass rate is much, and it is.
At this point, the reporter suddenly wakes up, maybe the "名" of the 46th level is more than just the four or six-level exams, and colleges and universities must hook English four or six degree and degree. It is just a primer, tearing it, people Worried about China's current education.
What is the biggest crux faced by China's current education development? That is to test education. The college entrance examination baton has commanded the students from primary school and even kindergarten. It has turned around it. The college English has become another baton in college education, what is the test, how to test, and determine what, how to teach, The examination system determines the teaching system and the teaching system determines the fate of students. In the test of the exam, our university can also produce new ideas, new methods, new creations? Can we provide all kinds of innovative tips that we urgently need for the development of future society?
Again, now a variety of assessments are so necessary? How is the professor level, to evaluate all kinds of hard indicators; a university running, but also through all kinds of assessments, no matter whether you are a comprehensive university or a single university or a general undergraduate college, anyway, "excellent" The standard is one. For this "standard", can our education are not alienated?
Perhaps, "four or six pass rates" can really be avoided; and a wide variety of assessments have become a scientific norm! Only, our college English four or six exams can also have a simple function, and Chinese education can return to their purely meaning.
