2 1 Century Education Research Institute Project

With the support and help from all walks of life, 2 1 Century Institute of Education has carried out various projects and topics related to educational reform, educational innovation and educational investigation. Brief Introduction of the Project "Deepening the Reform of College Entrance Examination System"

Because of the high interest and high risk of the college entrance examination system, every specific measure is "taking one thing and moving the whole body", with advantages and disadvantages, which are very complicated. Because of this, it is even more necessary to improve the scientific and democratic level of decision-making, and to condense the knowledge of reform through social participation and open discussion. Therefore, 2 1 Century Institute of Education initiated the research on the reform of college entrance examination, and promoted the substantive reform of college entrance examination system in China through policy advocacy activities.

2 1 Century Institute of Education released the first folk version of the college entrance examination reform plan in 2007. In 2009, the planning outline was taken into account by the people, and an upgraded version was released again. In 20 14, during the critical period when the national college entrance examination system reform policy was brewing, 2 1 century education research institute put forward the 3.0 version of the private college entrance examination reform plan in combination with the current education situation and future demand in China.

Brief introduction of the project of "higher education information disclosure"

Among all levels of education, higher education enjoys the largest national financial input. As a public department, colleges and universities shoulder social responsibilities to the public, and should report their exclusive information about running schools to taxpayers and the whole society, especially the administrative department of higher education, which should guarantee the public's right to know and provide convenience for the exercise of their supervision right.

However, because the funding source of China University mainly depends on government grants, unlike foreign universities (such as the United States) that rely on social funds to raise funds, there is an internal motivation to respond to public accountability and rely on information disclosure to maintain or even improve social reputation; Therefore, the emphasis on information disclosure is not enough. Even if there is an express requirement from the government (20 10 "Measures for Information Disclosure in Colleges and Universities"), the implementation situation is mixed (according to the survey of China University of Political Science and Law 20 1 1, there is no "2 165438" university to disclose the source of school funds voluntarily. Only 13.4% of "2 1 1" colleges and universities provide information on citizens' application for publicity. Under such circumstances, the 2 1 Century Institute of Education started the project of "Promoting the Information Disclosure of Higher Education" from 20 14 to promote the information disclosure of colleges and universities that is conducive to educational equity.

This project evaluates and ranks the content integrity, information openness and credibility of the 20 13 annual employment quality reports of 75 universities directly under the Ministry of Education.

Brief Introduction to the Project of "Rural Education Research"

2 1 Century Institute of Education has long been concerned about rural education. With the decrease of school-age children in rural areas, large-scale population movement and the popularization of compulsory education schools in rural areas for ten years, many problems have appeared in rural education, such as being far away from schools, being difficult to go to school, being expensive to go to school, dropping out of school, having large classes, floating children, left-behind children, etc., which fully exposed the serious consequences brought about by the implementation of the policy of withdrawing schools and merging schools. In 20 12, 2 1 century institute of education conducted a nationwide discussion and investigation on the merger of rural schools, and held a summit forum on "all for rural students" in June of 5438+02, which made a centralized reflection and evaluation on the merger policy of rural schools. Later, these discussions and investigations were compiled into a book "Where to Go for Rural Education-Evaluation and Reflection on the Policy of Removing Villages and Merging Schools".

In recent years, various places have carried out colorful exploration and practice in rural education. These explorations enlighten us that rural education has irreplaceable unique value. The healthy development of rural education in the new period will make rural education the growing point of new rural construction and new rural civilization, and make the ancient rural civilization of the Chinese nation inherit, nourish and update. Under this background, 20 13 and 2 1 Century Institute of Education discussed "New Rural Education" to explore the scientific development of rural education in the process of urbanization.

Through the overall research and care of rural education, the institute found that small-scale rural schools with small villages and few teaching points are the last 20% of rural schools, which is the key to the realization of rural education equity. Therefore, on the basis of 20 12 policy research on the layout adjustment of rural schools, 2 1 century education research institute began to pay attention to "small-scale rural schools" and conducted follow-up research and policy advocacy; On 20 13, the case of restoration and reconstruction of rural small-scale schools was investigated on the spot, and on 20 13, 1 1 released the investigation report on the construction of rural small-scale schools. At the same time, the practice of revitalizing rural small-scale schools in the United States, Japan, Southeast Asian countries and Taiwan Province Province of China is discussed.

Brief Introduction of "Innovation Award Project of Local Education System"

With the country's increasing investment in education, China's education is facing a historic turning point: the gradual exposure of deep-seated problems in the education field, which have long been concealed by education poverty, shows that the education problem is gradually turning from external problems to internal problems, highlighting the main contradictions of current education: the contradiction between the people's growing educational needs and the backward education system, and the contradiction between advanced social development concepts and the backward education system. To solve these contradictions, we need to deepen the reform of the education system. Under the current background, the reform of education system needs both top-down promotion and bottom-up powerful motivation, thus forming a good social atmosphere for the reform of education system.

In essence, education should be tailored to local conditions, proceed from the actual needs of various places, and be closely linked with people's lives. Because of China's vast territory and different situations, the bottom-up practice and exploration of local education reform can often really solve problems and have vitality. Therefore, the innovation of local government's education system plays a very special role.

In order to better promote the innovation of local education system to develop in depth, 2 1 Century Education Research Institute, together with Narada Foundation and Sohu Education Channel, launched the "Innovation Award for Local Education System", inviting social elites such as domestic education circles, business circles, cultural circles, media circles, well-known principals, teachers, etc. to form an evaluation committee, build a network platform, and let the general public participate in the evaluation and award local election cases. Many well-known media such as China Newsweek, China Youth Daily and Southern Weekend jointly supported the promotion meeting.

Activity principles: independence, public welfare, openness and fairness. The activity does not charge any fees to any participant.

Activity cycle: It will be held every two years from 2008.

Case source: self-recommendation by local government and local education bureau; Recommended by central media; Invite national celebrities to set up "local recommendation committees" to recommend members and well-known scholars and experts.

Selection method: the selection process is divided into two rounds: primary selection and final selection, and the method of combining expert voting, reporter voting and mass network voting is adopted.

In 2008, 53 cases participated in the election, mainly focusing on seven categories: local education administrative reform, promoting education equity and balanced development of compulsory education, education evaluation, rural education reform and private education reform. For details, please refer to the special page of "Innovation Award of Local Education System" on Sohu. com。

Brief introduction of the project "balanced development of compulsory education"

The craze for choosing schools at the beginning of junior high school is one of the most prominent social problems in Beijing's compulsory education stage. Since 20 1 1, the research institute has carried out this research, analyzed the evolution process of the "junior high school" policy in recent ten years, revealed the chaos of "having money to choose schools, having the right to choose schools, and choosing excellent schools", analyzed the reasons, and put forward six governance suggestions to promote Beijing to achieve the goal of "2065438+".

Brief Introduction of "China Educational Public Welfare Organization" Project

Education is the development and growth of human beings, and school education is one of the main ways to continue social culture. The institutionalized school education in modern civil society is often based on the state, but the support and help from all sides will better support the all-round development of all kinds of learners. The report of the 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed to "run a satisfactory education for the people", and at the same time encouraged all sectors of society to participate in the construction of various educational methods at all levels. A truly harmonious society requires citizens and all kinds of public welfare organizations to participate in the construction of education extensively under a certain mechanism framework.

With the number of educational social organizations (educational NGOs) increasing year by year, educational NGOs in some provinces have accounted for more than 70% of social organizations. Educational NGOs are also involved in more and more fields, such as rural teacher training, rural teaching, migrant children's education, migrant workers' entrepreneurship training, folk education and scientific research. And made various beneficial, influential and effective attempts.

However, compared with social organizations in other fields, educational NGOs have some problems, such as weak internal organizational ability, lack of professional ability, lack of communication between organizations, and repeated construction of projects, which restrict the development of educational NGOs.

2 1 Century Education Research Institute, Beijing Tianxiaxi Education Consulting Center, Southern Weekend, China Youth Daily and other media jointly launched the "China Educational Social Organization Development Forum", aiming to build an exchange platform for educational NGOs, and jointly build a collaborative network of educational NGOs among educational social organizations, foundations and enterprises, so that educational NGOs can strengthen communication with foundations and enterprises, complement each other's resources and exchange needed goods. * *

Since 2009, 2 1 Century Education Research Institute, Beijing Western Sunshine Rural Development Foundation and other institutions have jointly hosted the annual meeting of educational public welfare organizations every two years, inviting educational public welfare organizations and foundations from all over the country to discuss the future development direction of educational public welfare organizations in China. The annual meeting of educational public welfare organizations is a systematic review of the development of educational public welfare organizations, a discussion of current hot issues in education and the development of educational public welfare organizations, an exchange and learning platform for practical exploration cases of educational public welfare organizations, a gathering of information agitation, making friends and docking resources among folk education actors, and a collective voice and display of folk education exploration actions. Brief introduction of "life education innovation" project

The project of "Innovation Forum for Learners in Education" was officially launched in February 20 14, which originated from the reflection of the Institute of Education in the 20th century: What is a good education? We believe that education is related to life, integrated into life and suitable for life. Educational innovation comes from everyone in society making a little change in their position.

Through the annual summit and a series of monthly activities, "Life Education Innovation" aims to reflect on educational ideas and true and false propositions, promote public participation in educational dialogue and innovative actions, and enhance the vitality and diversity of education in China. It aims to discover, support and gather innovative educational individuals and groups, and help these actions spread, reflect and grow.

In the monthly series of activities on 20 14, the institute will cooperate with many organizations and individuals who practice educational innovation and carry out a series of activities around educational innovation according to different themes; The annual spring summit of 20 15 will bring together educational innovation forces from all walks of life and China and the west, and the activities will include theme forums, workshops, debates and art exhibitions.

"Home School" Research Project

With the deepening of China's reform and opening up and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, the public's demand for education is becoming more and more diversified and personalized. In this context, some parents try to find suitable education methods for their children outside school, or leave their children at home to educate themselves, or several parents gather their children together, hire teachers, hold primary schools and so on. These forms have a professional title in the world, that is, "home school education". More accurately, these forms are the practice of non-school education.

As a personalized educational trend, "home schooling" has developed rapidly in the field of educational practice in China. Although it is only a few practices, it has aroused great concern from the media and the public. However, the specific number, teaching quality and development speed of homeschools in China have not been investigated by any professional institutions, and their legal status in China is still controversial. In order to truly understand the development status of homeschooling in China, and put forward feasible policy suggestions for the development of this educational model in China, and guide its healthy development in China, the Institute of Education set up a school in 2 1. 1.65438+. Brief introduction of "educational satisfaction" project

In the annual "Blue Book of Education" published by 2 1 Century Education Research Institute, the annual survey data of China's education satisfaction attracted special attention and was widely spread. "Running a satisfactory education for the people" is an important goal of national education development. The public education satisfaction index is introduced to evaluate the effectiveness of education reform and development in China.

Government consultation and planning

Since the promulgation of 1985, the reform of China's education management system has been deepened, and the 20 10 education planning outline has once again exerted its strength, proposing "promoting the separation of management and management". 20 13 "the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China's decision on some major issues of comprehensively deepening reform" once again puts forward "further promoting the separation of management and operation" and transforming government functions. 2 1 Century Education Research Institute, as an independent third party, has carried out a series of government consultation and planning projects in recent years, such as the Twelfth Five-Year Plan for Education Development in Pudong New Area of Shanghai, the Twelfth Five-Year Plan for Education Development in Wuhou District of Chengdu, Sichuan Province, the Education Development Plan for Sino-Singapore Eco-city of Tianjin, the Evaluation Project for Regional Education Development in Shunyi, and the Zhenjiang Preschool Education Planning Project.

School consultation and development

2 1 Century Institute of Education not only provides consulting planning for the government, but also carries out corresponding consulting services in the field of school education, and implements the advocated educational concepts into school teaching and management, such as "Jiangxi Meifoer International School Development Planning Project" and "Zhejiang Shengzhou Yue Opera Art School Development Planning Project".

Public welfare project evaluation

Educational non-profit organizations are important non-governmental forces to promote education equity and improve education quality. With the arrival of learning society and the increasing diversity of public demand for education, educational non-profit organizations are booming. In recent years, 265438+ 20th Century Education Research Institute has undertaken a series of public welfare project evaluations, such as "Friends of Tsinghua-Kaifeng Public Welfare Foundation Scholarship Evaluation Project", "Amway Public Welfare Foundation's Research Project on Nutrition Improvement of Compulsory Education Students in Central and Western Rural Areas", "China Foundation for Poverty Alleviation's Basic Education Status Survey", "China Foundation for Poverty Alleviation's Child Development Survey" and "Thanksgiving Foundation's Quality Education Project Evaluation". Brief Introduction of the Project "Blue Book of Education in China"

Introduction to 2 1 Century Education Series

Where will rural education go? —— Evaluation and reflection on the policy of merging rural schools

265438+ beijing institute of technology press 20 13 by Twentieth Century Institute of Education.

20 12 and 2 1 Century Institute of Education conducted different forms of investigation and study on the layout adjustment of rural schools. 11June, the "2 1 Century Education Summit Forum" with the theme of "All for Rural Students" was held in Beijing. As the achievement of this stage, the research report "Exploring the Road of Scientific Development of Rural Education —— Evaluation and Thinking of Rural School Layout Adjustment Policy" was released, which aroused strong social repercussions. On September 20 12, the State Council issued a document to suspend this policy. Rural education has entered the so-called "era of withdrawing from school and merging schools". As an extension and follow-up of the policy study of "withdrawing schools and merging schools" in 20 12, in 20 13, the institute carried out a survey of "finding schools in beautiful countryside", paying attention to the rural education reform in the era of "withdrawing schools and merging schools".

This book is completed under this background. On the basis of 20 12 research report, the research on the consolidation of withdrawal points is further refined and deepened; At the same time, the research on the scientific development of rural education under the background of new urbanization has been intensified, and attention has been paid to the future-oriented rural construction and education development.

Rapids: Theory and Practice of Local Education System Reform —— Research on the Innovation of Local Education System in China (2008-2012).

Beijing institute of technology press 20 13, edited by Liu

In order to promote the educational innovation of local governments, since 2008, 2 1 Century Institute of Education has held three consecutive "local education system innovation awards", which have found, summarized, disseminated and popularized effective local reform practices and achieved positive results. This book discusses and summarizes three important cases of innovation awards. At the same time, based on the practice of local reform, it discusses the mechanism, path, methods and problems of China's education system reform from multiple levels and angles, which not only shows the innovative achievements of local education system, but also provides theoretical thinking for further reform in the future.

In roughly the same social and policy environment, there are always some places that can make remarkable achievements and produce substantial educational changes. This not only strengthens people's confidence in reform, but also urges us to understand the dynamic mechanism of education reform and pay attention to how education has changed, or how education reform has occurred. As a preliminary exploration, I hope that the cases and expositions in this book can attract everyone's attention, continue to promote the reform of China's educational system and mechanism, and carry out comprehensive reform in the field of education.

2020: China Education Reform Strategy

2 1 Century Education Research Institute Editor Yang Dongping People's Publishing House 20 10.

20 10 education planning outline was officially issued, which defined the values, goals and tasks of future education reform and development, and needed to be transformed into specific implementation plans and operational plans to be implemented in reform exploration and practice in various places. Therefore, the 2 1 century education research institute wrote this book on the basis of participating in the research and formulation of the outline of education planning. Different from the reading materials that specially interpret the Outline of Education Planning, this book focuses on the educational issues concerned by the state and local governments, and provides more forward-looking theoretical thinking and constructive and operational policy suggestions by combining the cases of educational innovation of local governments in China and the experience of international education reform. Therefore, it is an extension and expansion of reading materials to understand and implement the outline of educational planning, promote educational reform and institutional innovation, and provide reference and services for national and local governments.

This book makes a theoretical and empirical study on China's educational equity, involving the "school-choosing craze" in primary and secondary schools, key academic systems, model high schools, transitional schools, "school lieutenant colonel", "prestigious schools run by the people", educational investment, arbitrary charges for education, urban-rural and regional disparities in educational development, gender differences in education, unfair enrollment, enrollment expansion, poor students in colleges and universities, and "independent colleges".

Brief Introduction of "2 1 Century Education Salon" Project

2 1 Century Education Salon was founded by 2 1 Century Education Research Institute in September, 20 10 and held once a month.

This is a different salon! Every month, friends from all corners of the country are invited to sit in the spring breeze and talk about the worries and joys of education in China. Adhering to the tenet of "Everyone pays attention to education", Sharon faces the hot and difficult issues of education in China, and is committed to building a free and open high-quality communication platform for people from all walks of life who care about education in China.

The institute believes that the change of education comes from the change of everyone. Only when common sense is constantly discussed, wrong ideas are constantly corrected, and good and ideal educational methods are constantly passed on, can everyone's concern become everyone's change.

Salon adopts the mode of guest lectures and audience participation and interaction, and invites influential thinkers and practitioners in the field of education as keynote speakers in each issue. Topics involve frontier topics such as rural education, curriculum reform in primary and secondary schools, internationalization of education, and online education. Looking back on the past, looking forward to the future, thinking deeply and drawing on the strength of educational reform. Sharon pays attention to equality, respect, pluralism and openness, advocates constructive, positive and rational dialogue, brainstorms ideas and promotes the change of educational status.

Since its establishment nearly four years ago, the salon has been held for 35 times, bringing together private school operators, educational researchers, non-governmental organizations, media, parents, teachers, entrepreneurs and other people from all walks of life. The collision of thinking has produced many wise thoughts and wonderful opinions.

Brief introduction of "biweekly education information" project

Since May 2008, Education Information has been published biweekly, and China Education Information biweekly electronic newsletter is compiled from information publicly released by the media, aiming to help people from all walks of life who care about education and are busy with their work understand the main trends, landmark events, important viewpoints and key data of education in China, so as to better examine and improve related work in a global perspective.

Brief Introduction of Xinmin Education Forum Project

Xinmin Education Forum is a public welfare education forum organized by 2 1 Century Education Research Institute. From the perspective of "big education", the "Forum" invites elites from all walks of life, such as economy, science and technology, society and culture, that is, "outsiders in education", to express their new views on China's education and put forward suggestions, so as to create a communication platform for the society to participate in China's education reform. The forum is held on the weekend of the last week of each month. Since 2008, the Forum has been held many times.

As Mr. Tang Min, the first guest of the forum and a famous economist, said, "On such an important issue as education, we should all have a say. Education cannot be monopolized by educators, schools and educational administrative departments. Because education is too important for all of us. ..... People often say that the bystander is clear, and the bystander may not be clear, but the bystander often has a different angle from the authoritative person. From this perspective, we are bold and feel obligated to express some views on education frequently. "

Xinmin Education Forum is open to people from all walks of life free of charge. Through such activities, we can awaken the public's awareness of their own educational rights, promote their understanding of all aspects of the education industry, and thus improve their ability to participate in educational decision-making. At the same time, the extensive participation of the media will also make the results of the "forum" widely disseminated, and achieve the goal of effective interaction between the "forum" and the public on a larger scale. In view of the fact that there is no relatively mature public discussion platform for education in China, 2 1 Century Education Research Institute initiated the construction of an educational thought network with the positioning of "a private think tank and a public platform". The website focuses on China's educational problems, spreads advanced educational ideas, forms an educational reform plan, and promotes China's educational transformation and reform.
