An eventful 40-year journey for gaokao

Vocational education as crucial as college degree

Admit it or not, the era of using gaokao to climb up the social ladder is over. College education is no longer a scarce resource; it can be accessed by many.

This is not to dissuade youths from taking gaokao. Higher education has lost none of its advantages. But today just a college degree does not necessarily guarantee you a good job.

Quite a few youths from rural areas have failed to get a job despite having college degrees; some families have even spent all their savings on their children's education only to see them face failure in the job market.

Perhaps kids should be taught from middle school how to tackle life's challenges and find the path that best suits their personalities so that they can avoid the heartbreak of not getting good jobs after graduation. For example, they should be taught to explore their real interests and strengths, which can be nurtured to develop talented individuals.

More important, vocational education must not be stigmatized, as a dexterous mechanic is worth much more than an incompetent college graduate for society.

Regional parity will improve system

True, gaokao can change people's lives. But it has an inherent flaw, as it offers unequal higher education opportunities to youths, depending on their household registration (whether urban or rural), the region they belong to and their family backgrounds.

Three factors can be blamed for that-the divisive quality of basic education, the difference in the examination papers that the provinces prepare, and the enrollment quota system universities in different provinces follow.

That this year, 26 provinces will use the national test papers prepared by the Ministry of Education (despite not being the same, the papers will maintain a certain standard) bodes well for regional parity.

To promote fairness, universities that get most of their funds from the central government should use unified admission procedures. As for the provincial government administrated universities that rely more on local public funds, they should appropriately raise the quota for enrollment of local candidates.

Moreover, in the less-developed regions, universities should simply enroll more students. And central funds for universities in these regions should be raised to improve the higher education system.

Universities must focus on human values

Students who are under constant pressure to get good scores in exams throughout their school years enter universities only to find that most teachers are struggling to get higher academic tittles or conducting research in the hope of getting the papers published and raise their academic standing.

Evaluation has become an unending phenomenon in academics. But the focus of evaluation is wrongly on resources. It's time universities shifted their focus to human values, because they play a leading role in shaping social consciousness.

The first change should be to disconnect teachers' promotion and salary increment from academic publications and citations. Instead, they should be evaluated on the basis of their contribution to students' knowledge and the impact of their research works on the concerned fields.

A committee of academic ethics needs to be built to educate teachers, scholars and researchers about the consequences of data falsification and using deceitful means to add their names to research works. Building a database on the contributions of teachers and researchers can also be of help in this regard.

We should realize that advanced academic ecology is one that helps students to excel in their respective fields.
