An Empirical Study of the Socratic Method in Nongraded English Teaching in Senior High School Under the Background of the New National College Entrance Examination

With the reform of the New National College Entrance Examination(Gaokao),the nongraded education will become an inevitable trend.In senior high school,the traditional test-oriented education is popular.The knowledge is mainly taught by the teachers,and the students passively absorb it.This study examines a problem-oriented Socratic experiment in nongraded English teaching in senior high school.The teachers seek output from students,who respond by interpreting questions,fostering critical thinking,and enhancing problem-solving skills.This teaching experiment indicates that the Socratic method has a significant positive effect on cultivating nongraded senior high English students’critical thinking under the New National College Entrance Examination.

Two-phase tabu search algorithm for solving Chinese high school timetabling problems under the new college entrance examination reform

Upon the latest reform to the college entrance examination in China(i.e.,Gaokao),high schools began implementing an optional class system.Under this scheme,students’time slots become complex,thereby increasing the difficulty in formulating a suitable timetable from the available ones.To address this problem,the coursescheduling model was improved.On the basis of the original hard constraints,the“concurrent group”was considered,and the softer constraints were regarded as optimization goals,such as“teaching plans synchronously”,“no idle periods in the timetables of teachers”,and“evenly distributed lessons”.Given these soft constraints,the model becomes more practical.In this study,a two-phase tabu search algorithm was proposed to solve the problem.The proposed algorithm uses the characteristics of the graph coloring model to eliminate redundant calculations in the neighborhood search process,thereby effectively improving computational efficiency.Fifteen practical instances of different scales were selected for testing to verify the effectiveness of the algorithm.The proposed algorithm can formulate high-quality available timetables(The average satisfaction rate of soft constraints is more than 71%)in a short period.

The School Reform Under the Background of the New National College Entrance Examination Reform

Since the promulgation of the new plan for the national college entrance examination reform in 2014,all provinces have been gradually promoting the new college entrance examination reform.In this context,schools are actively carrying out various reforms to improve the quality of education and teaching.However,can school reform only aim at the national college entrance examination?Facing the new national college entrance examination reform,what can schools do?

Research on the Influencing Factors and Countermeasures of Independent College Enrollment in the New Era

With the deepening of the reform process of the new college entrance examination,the enrollment of Independent Colleges in the new period is facing greater difficulties and challenges.Meanwhile,with the novel coronavirus pneumonia epidemic spreading in 2020 and the urgent demand of Independent Colleges'transformation work,enrollment is full of uncertainty.Based on this,the purpose of this study is to deeply analyze the plight,current situation and related research deficiencies of independent college enrollment work in the new period,and put forward the ways and direction of improvement,hoping to provide some reference for the enrollment work in the transition of independent college.
