Influencing program satisfaction for undergraduate students in STEM areas: The impact of interdisciplinary features, disciplinary connectedness, faculty support, and examination difficulty

Ensuring program satisfaction for undergraduate students in the areas of science,technology,engineering and mathematics(STEM)matters in student retention and education quality improvement.This study explores how four rarely examined variables support from faculty members,interdisciplinary features of STEM program courses,disciplinary connectedness of STEM program core courses,and examination difficulty impact Chinese STEM undergraduates’program satisfaction.With data from 619 Chinese STEM undergraduates,structural equation modeling shows that course satisfaction partially mediates the impact of support from faculty members on program satisfaction,while fully mediating that of interdisciplinary features of STEM program courses and disciplinary connectedness of STEM program core courses on program satisfaction.Examination difficulty exerts no significant impact on program satisfaction neither directly nor indirectly.Support from faculty members impact course satisfaction significantly stronger for junior and senior students than for freshmen and sophomores,while interdisciplinary features of STEM program courses impact course satisfaction stronger for freshmen and sophomores than for juniors and seniors.The study ends with practical implications for the higher education reform in relevant areas.

职教高考制度的发展历程、瓶颈问题及破解路径——以湖北省为例

职教高考制度是优化人才层次结构、拓宽成长成才通道、完善现代职业教育体系的重要举措。作为推进职教高考改革的先行实践,湖北省积极探索职教高考制度区域模式创新的新路,逐渐从萌芽起步期迈向深化提质期,呈现出鲜明特征:在制度理念上,从“消化模仿”向“改革创新”转变;在制度主体上,从“一元主体”向“多元主体”转变;在制度内容上,从“单一松散”向“系统规范”转变。然而,湖北省职教高考在发展过程中存在一系列需要破解的难题,如晋升渠道之困境、技能评价之难题、文化素质之困囿、组织实施之窘境。因此,系统总结湖北省“技能高考”制度的发展历程,准确把握“技能高考”的目标定位,完善“技能高考”招录机制、建立健全职业技能评价体系、全面优化“文化素质+职业技能”考试方式、深化考试方式分层分类等,能有效彰显职业教育类型特色,进而建立高质量现代职业教育体系。

职业教育高考制度感知正义研究基于职业教育高考考生的视角

作为建设职普融通“双轨”评价体系的关键一维,职业教育高考不仅需要扭转不科学的教育评价导向,更要让人民群众能够感受到教育评价改革所带来的公平正义。通过对1019名职业教育高考考生的调查数据进行分析发现:职业教育高考制度感知正义整体处于较低水平,无法充分彰显类型化教育评价理念;性别、生源类型对考生职业教育高考制度感知正义影响明显;学生群体对政策的了解程度偏低,导致整体感知正义较低。为优化职业教育高考制度的感知正义,职业教育高考要更加重视招生考试各环节的公平性问题,要充分考虑到不同群体的感知正义差异;要加强制度普及和制度正义的宣传工作。

教育法典编纂进程中的自学考试立法探究

教育法典编纂为解决自学考试立法层级低、内容滞后和体系分散等问题提供了契机。将自学考试纳入教育法典,可以提高自学考试的立法层级,明确自学考试在教育体系中的定位,也可以为自学考试与其他教育制度的协调和融通提供制度基础。在总分式体例下,自学考试的基本理念将体现在教育法典总则的立法目的条款和基本原则条款中,自学考试作为终身教育制度和国家教育考试制度应分别纳入法典分则的“终身教育编”和“教育考试编”。适度法典化的编纂模式并不需要实现对自学考试法律规范的全覆盖,法典中确立的自学考试相关制度仍需通过法规规章予以补充和完善,这些法规规章要受到法典立法目的、基本原则和一般规定的统领,既要实现法典设定的目标,又不能逾越法典的界限。

类型属性下职业教育实践的审视:演进、困境与纾解

职业教育是与普通教育具有同等重要地位的教育类型。立足类型属性审视职业教育实践的演进历程,可以划分为原始人技能代际传递的萌芽期、传统学徒制的雏形期、学校职业教育的成型期以及现代职业教育体系的赋新期。我国在现代职教体系构建中,面临着行政机制疏离产业部门、企业主体缺位教育活动、专业设置囿于学科中心、教学标准脱离职业标准的多重困境,折射出职业教育实践对类型属性的偏离。从国家、育人主体、专业及教学等层面,处理和把握好“教育与产业”“学校与企业”“专业与职业”“学习与工作”四组关系,是职业教育回归类型属性、纾解困境的关键路径。

分配·承认·能力:职业教育高考制度正义的多维审视

职业教育高考制度正义是揭示其作为一项“好制度”的根本所在,旨在彰显职业教育类型化变革和职业教育人才选拔的时代精神。职业教育高考制度正义指高等职业院校入学招生考试制度的正义属性,既包含职业教育高考制度中的正义追求,也包含职业教育高考制度内容的正义以及制度执行手段的正义,还包含职业教育高考制度所形成的高考文化、高考风俗、高考习惯以及高考心理、高考舆论等制度亚文化的正义性。职业教育高考制度正义还是多元化、层次化的复合正义,具体包含优质教育资源的分配正义、教育主体地位的承认正义、个体自由发展的能力正义。是故,职业教育高考制度在制定与执行中需要强调权利的平等、机会的公平、民主的平等,以教育考试制度的正义性变革实现人的自由发展。

从嵌入到共生:高考综合改革十年的发展图景

高考综合改革已推进十年之久,从局部试点逐步推广至全国,呈现出向纵深推进的发展势态。高考综合改革并不是一项单一的制度革新,而是融入于特定的政治、经济、社会、文化的宏观环境之中,与各种社会要素的发展相互作用、彼此联系。在社会诸要素嵌入的过程中,高考综合改革也存在制度失灵、价值观念冲突、组织治理“错位”、主体地位模糊等“脱嵌”情况。随着改革不断深入,社会各要素日益融入新高考制度,逐渐呈现从嵌入发展到共生发展的局面,最终实现融合共生、良性运行。
