我国高校外语教师队伍结构与教学现状调研报告

University foreign language teachers'profiles and current teaching situation in China:A survey report

为了解我国高校外语教师的队伍结构与教学现状,北京外国语大学中国外语与教育研究中心于2022年4—5月组织了覆盖全国31个省份22,258名教师的在线问卷调研。调研结果显示:1)我国高校外语教师队伍的年龄和教龄结构较为均衡、专业背景与聘任岗位匹配度较高,但仍存在性别比例失衡、高学历和高职称教师比例不足等问题;2)外语教师总体对外语教育政策文件的熟悉程度和对教学的重视程度较高,教学合作频率较高,对教学创新持积极态度,但教师的教学工作负荷较重,部分教师教学合作与创新有待加强,且仍有三成以上教师对外语教育政策文件的熟悉度有待提高。基于调研结果,本研究进一步分析了造成以上结果的原因,并提出针对性建议。

To investigate the profiles and current teaching situation of foreign language teachers at Chinese universities,the National Research Centre for Foreign Language Education conducted an online survey of 22,258 teachers across 31 provinces from April to May 2022.The following are the survey results.1)The age and teaching experience profiles of foreign language teachers in Chinese universities are relatively balanced,and the match between their professional backgrounds and appointed positions is high.However,there remain issues such as gender imbalance and insufficient proportions of teachers holding high academic qualifications and senior professional titles.2)Overall,foreign language teachers are highly familiar with foreign language education policy documents,prioritize and value their instructional duties in relation to other aspects of their role such as administrative tasks or research,frequently engage in teaching collaboration,and hold a positive attitude towards teaching innovation.However,teachers face a heavy teaching workload,and teaching collaboration among certain teachers and teaching innovation require further enhancement.Additionally,more than 30%of teachers need greater familiarity with foreign language education policy documents.This study analyses the causes of these survey findings and proposes targeted recommendations.
