What will be tested in the middle school entrance examination for art courses such as music and fine arts, and how?

  Recently, the news about "Art enters the high school entrance examination in 2022" and "The proportion of sports in the high school entrance examination will have the same status as that of mathematics" has aroused eager attention from the society.

  Yesterday (23rd), Wang Dengfeng, director of the Department of Sports, Health and Art Education of the Ministry of Education, said in an exclusive interview with our reporter that at present, sports have been included in the high school entrance examination, and the entrance examination for aesthetic education has been piloted in 8 provinces.

It is clear that the sports entrance examination will increase the scores year by year, and the pilot scope of aesthetic education entrance examination will gradually expand, but there is no timetable for 2022.

The goal by 2022 is to open up all the sports and aesthetic education courses.

What to teach and how to test

  As for the music, art and other art courses that parents care about entering the high school entrance examination, what exactly do they take?

How to test?

Wang Dengfeng also responded.

Wang Dengfeng, Director of the Department of Sports, Health and Art Education of the Ministry of Education:

The content of our entrance examination

for senior high

school is based on the premise that you must have been taught in school.

It is absolutely impossible to say that this class is not taught in the school, and that it will be taken in the middle school entrance examination.

  At present, eight provinces have piloted the art entrance examination. Wang Dengfeng said that in the next step, in the process of promoting and expanding the pilot, all regions will continue to improve the content testing methods and scoring methods, and continue to improve the level of science.

Wang Dengfeng, Director of the Department of Sports, Health and Art Education of the Ministry of Education: If it is to

be specifically promoted, it will still be promoted by the

locals.

The art entrance examination in Beijing and the art entrance examination in Henan may have very big differences in the content and the scoring.

Because, for example, some schools in Beijing offer Peking Opera classes, and people in Henan learn Henan Opera, and they may take the exam for Henan Opera. So this is still determined by the locality, based on their actual situation.

Full score of 10 points, average score of 9 points

  At present, many cities in Jiangsu Province have included art and music in the senior high school entrance examination. Huai'an City has been implementing it since 2016. How to do it?

After several years of exploration, what is the effect?

  In 2016, Huai'an explored the inclusion of music and art in the senior high school entrance examination. At the beginning of the pilot, a written test and ABCD were used to evaluate the test results as a reference for high school admission.

In 2018, the reform was further deepened. Music and art were each included in the total score of 5 points in the high school entrance examination, a total of 10 points. The assessment content mainly included basic knowledge and basic literacy of music and art. The examination method was adjusted from a written examination to a human-computer dialogue assessment. It is limited to basic knowledge again, but focuses on examining students' appreciation and discrimination abilities of music and art works.

An Huijuan, Director of the Department of Sports, Health and Arts, Huai'an City, Jiangsu Province: The

difficulty is not too big. The average score of students is around 9 points. Artistic literacy cannot be assessed by a simple written test. We hope that more experts will study how to optimize the test. Ways, methods, contents and means.

  The relevant person in charge of the Huai'an Education Bureau pointed out that after the pilot, a fundamental change has taken place compared to the previous one. The school pays more attention to the establishment of art courses, and the level of teachers is continuously improved.
