The ways to ensure and improve academic quality

The University attaches great importance to teaching quality assurance and monitoring. Through improving the organizational structure, improving the guarantee system, strengthening the quality control and other measures, a quality control mechanism has been formed, which takes student development as the center, self-assessment as the main body, problem finding as the guide, data analysis as the basis, and "monthly discussion" feedback as the platform. The quality assurance system of student education is running effectively.

Approaches of quality assurance

Improving quality standard

In accordance with the national and industrial standards for teaching quality of undergraduate majors, the University takes Jiangxi Province's comprehensive evaluation index system for undergraduate majors as reference, and combines the University 's educational orientation and application-oriented personnel training objectives to constantly improve the quality standards for personnel training, so as to form a relatively complete teaching quality standard system.

Improving the student support system

The University has established a "Five-dimensional integrated" teaching quality assurance system, which consists of a decision-making command system, a teaching operation management system, a teaching quality standard system, a teaching monitoring and evaluation system, and an information feedback and rectification system, and has defined the responsibilities, standards and processes of quality assurance for staff in all departments of the University. It highlights the core position of quality monitoring and evaluation in the teaching quality assurance system and constructs the teaching quality monitoring and evaluation system.

According to the teaching quality assurance system, the University actively carries out the supervision and evaluation of teaching quality, and has formed a good operation mechanism of teaching quality assurance: namely, the University, the teaching unit and the teaching and research section have formed three management levels; It has trained three monitoring teams, including teaching supervisor, full-time teacher and student information officer. To carry out the beginning, the mid-term, the final and the daily four stages of teaching inspection; We have consolidated four information feedback platforms, namely, principal reception day, classroom teaching quality "monthly talk" work, regular teaching work meeting and teacher-student symposium. And through the strict implementation of the "look back" work, supervision and rectification of problems, teaching quality assurance operation of the closed loop gradually formed, teaching quality continued to improve.

Strengthening the learning environment

Organizational guarantee: the University has set up the University, the University (department), the teaching and research section three levels of teaching quality assurance organization, and the establishment of full-time inspector general post, focus on teaching and learning supervision, to ensure the quality of teaching.

Quality assurance and evaluation

Routine monitoring

Teaching checks both in combination. In the teaching inspection, the University insists on the combination of regular inspection and process inspection and the combination of comprehensive inspection and partial selective inspection. The University will carry out initial, mid-term and final inspection every academic year, organize university leaders, functional departments and teaching unit leaders to carry out inspection of teaching order, and comprehensively inspect the basic situation of teaching. Organize the teaching supervisor to check the main teaching links, such as lesson preparation, classroom teaching, examination papers, graduation thesis (design), etc., and randomly check all kinds of teaching and learning materials.

The University teaching supervision and supervision should be carried out in three aspects: teaching supervision, university supervision and supervision. In order to effectively improve the teaching ability and level of teachers, four methods of teaching supervision are adopted: leading evaluation, supervising (experts) evaluation, peer evaluation and student evaluation. The supervisor takes the methods of teachers' evaluation, students' self-evaluation and third-party evaluation to gradually improve students' learning status, improve the learning effect, the quality of graduates' training and employers' satisfaction. Supervision includes leadership evaluation, supervision (experts) evaluation, teacher evaluation, student evaluation, etc., and strives to improve the efficiency of teaching and research section and the teaching management level of the secondary school (department).

The University gives full play to the enthusiasm of students' teaching quality monitoring and makes good use of classroom evaluation and network evaluation. In the process of classroom teaching and practical teaching, students' teaching evaluation questionnaires are widely distributed, collected and analyzed in time, and real-time monitoring of teaching work is carried out. As an important part of teachers' comprehensive evaluation, students' classroom evaluation of teaching gives full play to the enthusiasm of students' teaching messenger in daily evaluation, and summarizes the evaluation information of students' teaching and teaching management on a monthly basis. Update students' online teaching evaluation index system in time, and organize students to participate in online teaching evaluation extensively during the final period.

Teaching evaluation

The University attaches great importance to the implementation effect of self-assessment and quality control, which is fully reflected in the following aspects: First, the quantitative assessment to continuously improve the teaching quality. By carrying out the year-end assessment of teachers' teaching and teaching management scores, the scores of teachers' assessment are applied to performance pay, and the staff with positive scores and negative scores shall fluctuate in the payment of performance pay. Second, constantly strengthen the teaching process monitoring. Through the beginning, mid-term, final and daily teaching inspection, the inspection results were applied to the selection of excellent teaching quality award, "top ten teachers" and "advanced teacher ethics". The result of teaching examination is used as an important reference index for award evaluation. Third, constantly strict professional title assessment. By carrying out lecture-telling and lecture-giving competitions, the evaluation of teachers' teaching ability can be applied to the professional title evaluation, and the teachers who have excellent teaching evaluation can get corresponding additional points. Fourth, constantly strengthen the assessment of teaching units. By carrying out the annual assessment of each teaching unit and making a comprehensive ranking, the assessment and ranking results of the teaching unit are applied to the year-end assessment of the leaders of the teaching unit. For teaching units with lower ranking, their leaders will not be awarded excellent grades in the year-end assessment. Fifth, continuously optimize the specialty construction. Through the comprehensive evaluation of undergraduate majors, the evaluation results are applied to the construction of majors. For the majors that are ranked lower, the University takes the initiative to stop enrolling and concentrates resources to develop superior majors.

Feedback mechanism

Improvement of teaching quality

Teaching quality control is problem-oriented, and the improvement procedure and mechanism of finding problems -- giving feedback on problems -- issuing notice of rectification -- rectifying -- looking back is gradually formed. To the teaching quality problem, issue the rectification notice in time, require the relevant departments to rectify, and pay close attention to the implementation from three levels: one is through the classroom teaching monitoring instant improvement; Second, focus on improvement through regular teaching inspection; Third, through the special teaching evaluation system improvement. On the basis of the department's self-rectification, the University attaches great importance to the review of the rectification situation, that is, "look back" to the personnel who are not in place in the rectification, and seriously deal with them.
