Under the background of “double reduction”, the first and second grades of primary school in Shushan District, Hefei City started a new attempt to reform teaching evaluation, and “paperless evaluation” has become the first choice of many schools.
In the Xueyou Road Campus of Xiyou Road Primary School in Hefei City, the first and second grade children completed a special “final test”. First-year student Qi Hongqi happily told her mother after school, “The final exam is fun, I’m not nervous at all.”

Liu Qin, head of the first grade and Chinese teacher of the Xiyou Road Primary School in Hefei City, introduced that the “paperless assessment” held in the past two days mainly focused on Chinese and mathematics. There are four “levels” in the Chinese subject, which the teachers named “Pinyin Kingdom”, “Word Breakthrough”, “Oral Communication” and “Reading Master”. “Comparative Classification” “Recognizing Graphics”. “Each subject has prepared 10 sets of questions for the children, and the children will draw lots on the spot to conduct a ‘one-on-one’ oral test in front of the teacher. The whole process is paper and pen-free.”
Liu Qin introduced that the content of the final evaluation closely revolves around the subject syllabus. “The topics are all from textbooks, and they are also the content that children usually learn and need to master.”
In the Jiaheyuan Campus of the Education Group of the South School of Xiyuanxincun Primary School in Hefei City, the teaching evaluation content was organically integrated with the academic literacy in the context of the Winter Olympics.

Liu Qin, head of the first grade and Chinese teacher of the Xiyou Road Primary School in Hefei City, introduced that under the background of the “double reduction” policy, the academic evaluation of the lower grades should be done well. The school held a special meeting more than a month ago to study and formulate the evaluation. methods and evaluation criteria. “It is necessary to consider the comprehensiveness of the subject content, including the learning content of all subjects, involving students’ moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic, and labor literacy, but also to consider the diversification and fun of the assessment methods, so that children can be in a happy atmosphere. Complete the final assessment.”
Teacher Liu Qin introduced that compared with ordinary paper-and-pencil exams, paperless evaluation actually increases the workload for teachers. Whether it is the pre-designed questions or the organization in the assessment, there are high requirements. In terms of evaluation criteria, the performance of each “level” must also be quantifiable, reflecting fairness. Through such “one-to-one” evaluation, teachers and parents can actually understand the child’s shortcomings in a certain subject and a certain aspect more accurately through the child’s final evaluation sheet. “How to work hard next, there is a clear direction.”Return to Sohu, see more
