All middle school teachers are selected from the database of teachers recommended by various places, and the team leader is the authority of the department. Experts serve.

  For example, the Chinese grading team, in addition to college teachers, also participated in more than 220 high school front-line Chinese teachers selected from the teacher information database submitted by all parts of the province. With years of experience in marking papers, the expert group will combine different types of sample papers to explain the scoring criteria one by one."

  Due to the implementation of the double-assessment system, there are more than 5,000 people marking the college entrance examination in Guangdong this year, and the backbone staff are all university teachers.

According to the requirements of the Ministry of Education, this year's examiners can allow postgraduate students with practical experience to participate in the evaluation of some simple, clear, unique answers and subjective questions that do not need to be developed.

  Not only are the examiners selected at various levels, but the examiners also have to pass through the levels when entering the examination field.

Markers are required to wear certificates to measure body temperature in many places. Markers cannot wear any electronic equipment to enter the scoring site. Even necessities such as water cups are required to be placed in specified places and managed in a unified and centralized manner. The network on the scoring site is physically isolated from the outside world to ensure data. Safety.

  The person in charge of the Chinese subject scoring expert group of Tianjin Evaluation Point also introduced that in addition to the closed management of the evaluation point, all evaluation teachers have been arranged for centralized accommodation during the entire evaluation period.

  One question or four levels of gatekeeping and evaluation

  More than ten solutions to math problems

  How to ensure the fairness of the scoring, especially the subjective questions, the "double random" and "four evaluation system" are mentioned in many college entrance examination papers.

  "Double random" means that the whole process of scoring uses technical means to implement password circulation, and the scanned images of the test paper are cut into question groups and all scrambled.

  In the college entrance examination scoring base of Guizhou Normal University, the scoring teachers use the computer to review the examination papers of each subject. Only the answer part is displayed on the computer screen, and no information about the candidates can be seen. , clearly displayed on the monitor screen.

  At the Jiangsu marking site, each marking team will grade the cut question blocks separately, and each question block will be randomly distributed to more than two different marking teachers for independent assessment.

  If the scores of the two people are within the scoring threshold range set by the subject scoring expert group, the average of the scores scored by the two people will be taken; if the scores exceed the scoring threshold range, they will be submitted to the third scoring teacher for three evaluations. ; If it still exceeds the scoring threshold, it will be submitted to the expert group for evaluation.

If the third evaluation rate of an individual marking teacher is higher than double that of the same group, the subject expert group will stop its marking qualification.

  Mathematics, physics and chemistry and other topics have diverse ideas for solving problems. In order to ensure accurate judgment, there are also strict requirements in various places.

  In Tianjin, the person in charge of the mathematics subject scoring expert group of the scoring point introduced that there are 12 solutions for the most "big questions" in mathematics. A score reflects the accurate results of the students and safeguards the vital interests of the candidates.

  According to the leader of the Chinese language subject scoring group at Jiangsu Evaluation Point, the expert group has carefully formulated the scoring rules, requiring candidates to be able to read the materials, have something to say, and express their feelings. "The scoring rules have two thick books. There are examples of how many points each topic can be scored, so that the teacher can see at a glance, and the overall score for composition requires a correct style of writing, a clear context, and a smooth writing style.”

  In addition, the marking team carefully monitored the quality of the essays, and the expert group checked repeatedly without any dead ends.

"We also have a 'range team', which selects elite soldiers from each group to form a review team, and strictly investigates the phenomenon of 'playing insurance points', 'playing low with high scores' and 'playing low with low scores', which fully reflects the true level of candidates."

  "This year's Chinese exam questions are quite difficult, with more subjective questions. At the same time, the assessment of composition has higher requirements for students' comprehensive quality." Song Xiang, head of the Chinese assessment team for the college entrance examination in Jilin Province, introduced that from the current situation of scoring It can be seen that the ability of students to review questions has been greatly improved, the thinking of answering questions is relatively clear, and the ability to use Chinese is also steadily improving.
