我国科普评估的基础理论和发展方向

The basic theory and development direction of assessment for science popularization in China

科普评估是推动科普事业发展的重要手段。21世纪初,以教育、科技领域建立完善的评估制度和《科普法》的颁布为契机,我国开始逐步建立和完善科普评估制度,重点开展了科普能力和科普效果方面的评估。面对新时代科普高质量发展的要求,科普评估的发展方向也要随之转变,一是要加强科普政策评估,及时掌握政策的执行情况、效率和效能;二是扩大科普能力评估,充分考虑当前科普的新特点,将信息化、科技资源科普化、国际交流与合作等纳入科普能力评估范畴;三是强化科普效果评估,在科学知识普及效果的基础上,增加科学精神和科学家精神弘扬效果的评估;四是完善科普项目评估,明确科普项目在经济社会发展中的定位,在评估过程中加入反映促进经济发展状况的指标。

Assessment is an important method to promote the development of science popularization. At the beginning of this century, with the building evaluation system in education and science fields and the promulgating the Law on Popularization of Science and Technology, our country gradually started to establish and improve the evaluation system for science popularization focusing on the ability and effect. In the new era, facing with the requirements of high-quality science popularization, the development direction of assessment should be converted accordingly. First, the assessment of policy should be strengthened.The implementation, efficiency and efficacy of policy should be mastered in time. Second, the assessment of ability should be upgraded. Given the current of science popularization, the informatization degree, utilization of scientific resources,international communication and cooperation should be added into the scope of the assessment. Third, the assessment of effect should be expanded. On the basis of assessing knowledge popular effect, the effect of promoting scientific spirit and scientist spirit should be added. Fourth, the assessment indicators of projects should be improved. The position of popular science projects in economic and social development should be clarified, and indicators reflecting the status of promoting economic development should be joined.
