The main problems existing in the title of teachers are mainly reflected in the following aspects:
The evaluation criteria for professional titles are too simple: At present, the evaluation criteria for teachers' professional titles are too simple and quantitative, emphasizing hard indicators such as the number of teachers and the grade of published publications, while ignoring the evaluation of teachers' actual teaching ability and level. This single evaluation criterion leads to some teachers who excel in teaching practice, but find it difficult to obtain senior professional titles because they do not publish enough or the level of the journal is not high enough.
The title review process is not transparent: In some areas, the title review process is not transparent, and there are problems such as black-box operation and unfair competition. As a result, some excellent teachers are unable to get the promotion opportunities they deserve for various reasons, while some less excellent teachers are able to obtain senior titles through special channels.
Titles and salaries are too tightly linked: At present, teachers' titles are too tightly linked to salaries, resulting in some teachers who have obtained senior titles no longer focusing on teaching and scientific research, but putting more energy on maintaining their titles and salaries. This situation is not conducive to the professional development of teachers and the improvement of teaching quality.
The phenomenon of falsification of evaluation materials is serious: in order to obtain higher professional titles, some teachers will falsify evaluation materials through various means, such as forgery, tampering with data, etc. This kind of fraud seriously affects the fairness and impartiality of the evaluation of professional titles, and also damages the professional ethics and academic integrity of teachers.
The evaluation cycle of professional titles is too long: the evaluation cycle of teachers' professional titles is too long, resulting in some teachers not being able to get the due opportunities for professional title promotion for a long time. This situation not only affects the professional development of teachers, but also affects the improvement of teaching quality.
In order to solve the above problems, the following measures need to be taken:
Establish diversified evaluation standards for professional titles: emphasize the evaluation of teachers' actual teaching ability and level, and weaken the excessive requirements for hard indicators such as the number of teachers and the grade of published publications. At the same time, student evaluation, peer evaluation and other evaluation methods can be introduced to comprehensively evaluate teachers' professional quality and teaching performance.
Strengthen the transparency and fairness of the title review process: Disclose the review process and review results, strengthen supervision and supervision, and avoid the occurrence of improper behaviors such as black-box operations and benefit exchanges. At the same time, it is necessary to establish a sound complaint and appeal mechanism to protect the legitimate rights and interests of teachers.
Rationally adjust the relationship between professional titles and remuneration: gradually reduce the direct impact of professional titles on teachers' salaries, establish a more scientific and reasonable salary system, and motivate teachers to focus more on teaching and scientific research. At the same time, it is necessary to strengthen the assessment and management of teachers who have obtained senior professional titles to ensure their continuous professional development and contribution.
