China University of why "risk" could not master talents?

November 20, 2006 9 am, the State Council, the fourth meeting rooms.

Sitting side by side facing six college principals and education experts, Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao said: "There are several problems, has been hovering in my mind. Today we ask for advice. Xuesen last visit, he proposed that China did not present fully developed, one important reason is that a university can not cultivate scientific and technological inventions in accordance with the model on school personnel, not their own unique and innovative things, always 'take' no outstanding talents. I understand Qianlao said minds, not what the common people, but the master talents. students in increasing school size was also expanded, but how to cultivate more talented people? This is an issue I am very anxious. "Since then, the Chinese University of Qianlao Master not to take the comments of talent called "Qian mystery."



Principals for the day, the Prime Minister questioning the answers, Hunan Business College Strategic Research Institute Professor Xie Maoshi has issued a document criticizing the Xinhua Forum, entitled "The Prime Minister's question: Six university presidents not answer the question - Who can crack the Chinese educational one of the major unsolved crimes? "Interested parties are read for yourself:

I believe that the examination-oriented education and quality education, public education, industrialization and education, and there is no fundamental conflict of that period for all people in a fabricated out of a project. Not "exam-oriented education" suppress people, but the current education system (management system and management mechanism) suppression personnel; education is not the root cause of industrialization, is the root cause of educational administration; not the state invested too little, but wasted too much formalism; Talent is not all from the University to take (?) out, nor is it "a certain plan," "certain works" made out of talent from all social equity, justice that is harmonious, eclectic atmosphere of generalized risk education (!) out.



Qianlao that "no college or university to train science and technological innovations and inventions in accordance with the model to school personnel." We are now college is what model? I summed it up as "Educational Administration" method of specific performance: School Leadership bureaucratic, personnel standards for modeling, management format, the operating mechanism programmed.



This education system, is above the (policy formulation are) the default by a unified, uniform, from top to bottom (lower level of obedience to superior) to "train qualified personnel." This by the officials of the layers of leadership and the right to monopolize the discourse of "elite" are designed and hosted by formalist "approach," "plans," "project", "project" (in addition to job classification) etc., in addition to increasing the inequitable distribution of educational resources, cost the country money, twisted personality of teachers and students, teachers and students thought suppression, killing the quality of teachers and students, encourage perfunctory hypocrisy breeds academic corruption, the result is bound to bring up a number of mediocre talent, vulgar talented, great is the prime minister said "ordinary" talent.



In this education system, the real potential, individuality, dare to thinking, how dare maverick master talent "risk" was out? This "educating people" system, just is to become the master of talents may strangle in the cradle of the! Examples, several decades, we appear there? !



Executive-led market, the market will not become the market; executive-led education, education will not become education; executive-led academic, academic also not become academic. The problem also came out, some "explosion", and the address of an administrative system of education in this fundamental problem.



The existing system of university management (including recruitment and payment systems, etc.) are likely to have the potential to master seedling "sift" the. The whole society should explore the broad perspective of education to master "risk" out of the laws and mechanisms to bear on the various types of educational responsibility (not just schools) specific areas of reform. Such reform should not be executive-led, but should be under the protection of the laws of (genuine) experts group led.
