护航战略目标落地:澳大利亚国家教育监测评估的经验与启示

Promoting the Implementation of Strategic Objectives:Experiences and Insights from Australia's National Education Monitoring and Evaluation

开展针对国家中长期教育政策性宣言的教育监测评估是澳大利亚推进教育改革发展的有效经验,包括:以法律和政策坚实监测评估“合法性”基础,依据政策性宣言设计监测指标体系,打造支撑监测评估的多源异构数据基座,以“见林见树”的全面观呈现现状与发展趋势,强化监测评估服务行政决策和公共监督。澳大利亚的经验对我国开展国家教育监测评估有如下启示:一是政府委托专门机构对国家教育中长期战略落实进展监测评估,二是监测评估坚持纵向发展与横向国际比较相结合,三是强化监测评估服务政府决策和舆论引导效应,四是推动人工智能等新一代信息技术与教育监测评估深度融合。

The National Education Monitoring and Evaluation(NEMA)which addresses the country's medium-and long-term education policy declarations,has been proved an effective approach in advancing education reform and development in Australia.Specifically,these include:(1)ensuring the"legitimacy"of monitoring and evaluation through laws and policies;(2)designing a system of monitoring indicators that corresponds to policy declarations;(3)building a multi-source heterogeneous data base based on the needs of monitoring and evaluation;(4)taking into account the current status and development trend in a holistic perspective that"integrates the whole and the parts";and(5)strengthening the utility of monitoring and evaluation results for administrative decision-making and public oversight.Australia's experience provides the following insights for China's national education monitoring and assessment efforts.Firstly,the Government should authorize specialized agencies to carry out national education monitoring and evaluation.Secondly,the dimensions of monitoring and evaluation should include vertical historical development achievements and horizontal international comparative analyses.Thirdly,the effectiveness of monitoring and evaluation results in serving government decision-making and guiding public opinion should be strengthened.Fourthly,a new generation of information technologies,such as artificial intelligence,should be promoted to integrate deeply with education monitoring and evaluation.
