Basic Education Schools Change Mechanism Research

With the advent of knowledge economy and the rapid development of science and technology, the current human society are undergoing profound transformations:the global economy comes into integration; our work and life go through oceans of changes. The rapid change and transformation of society has made schools confronted with urgent pressure of changing. Thus, schools should continuously reflect upon the requirements that society has raised and take countermeasures to carry out responsive reform. The reform of schools implies that in order to adapt itself to social environment inside and outside the campus, the related elements of schools should be remolded, thereby, the school efficacy can be improved and the school goals can be achieved. However, practice shows that whether the world of the East or the world of the West, people are holding "a futile and tough battle". All kinds of reforms that are endeavored to improve the quality of schools have never been stopped, but few schools are really changed to some extent. Although many schools possibly assert that they have thrown themselves into reforms actively, and expend their maximum efforts, there still exists a rather universal social fact that more than half of these schools lack of responsive effect. Thus, why are those reforms too difficult to be promoted? What factors are on earth producing so much resistance effect in the rear? What is the internal mechanism of schools reform? What problems are happening inside schools mechanism in our country? How to improve present mechanism so as to better promote development of schools? It has become a social focus and a pressing issue that personages of different levels of educational system must face.When present school reforms are advancing to some extent, only the awareness of institution can hardly meet the needs of reforms. Thus we must raise the issues to higher level of awareness of mechanism. In this thesis the author establish "framework of reforming mechanism" to reflect upon kinds of mechanisms to analyze its existing problems, which is of much significance to adjust and improve school reforming mechanism, moreover to enhance the practice reform.School reforming mechanism is the core factor as well as the operating principles of the school reforming system. These principles mainly probe interactive relations among each factor of the reforming system. So in this thesis the author firstly analyze chief constituents of reforming mechanism including the six factors of reforming dynamic, reforming objectives, reforming subjects, reforming transmission mechanism, coordination mechanism, and reforming supervision. Furthermore, the author also probe interactive relations among them and establish theoretical framework for analyzing and investigating schools reforming mechanism. Secondly the author further discuss operating principles of the schools reforming mechanism, reveals that the operating process mainly include the three stages of initiation, operation and systematizing, and indicate that internal mechanism of schools is a dynamic system that is cycling. In the reforming practice, people should comprehend the running states of each subsystem of the reforming mechanism, and make timely partial adjustments according to the general running state of school reforming mechanism, moreover to upgrade or promote the generation of new reforming mechanism. In the end, basing on the established theoretical framework, the author use systematic methods to observe school reforming mechanism of elementary education from the point of view of its constituents and its operating principles, and conclude: reforming objectives of schools are not clear; the power of reforming subjects is disperse; the reforming dynamic is not adequate, and the coordination and supervision mechanisms are not complete, and so on. In order to solve the existing problems of school reforming mechanism of elementary education of our country and promote healthy operation of school reforming mechanism, the author put forward relative countermeasures:first, to establish intricate perspective of school reforming; second, to make the objectives of school reforming concrete; third, to get the strength of reforming subjects together, coordinate relations of interest of reforming subjects, reduce resistance during the reforming process; fourth, to adjust dynamic structure of reforming mechanism, arouse androgenic power of reforming; fifth, to promote healthy operation of school reforming by means of supervising mechanism in order to adjust the structure and relation among constituent factors and promote healthy operation of school reforming.At present, at home and abroad the research findings about backgrounds, patterns and dynamic of school reforming are rather plentiful. However, few researches about reforming mechanism exist, and the existing research only center around principles and molds of reforming mechanism and other exterior issues, and they are seldom involved in constitution and operation of reforming mechanism of schools and other essential issues. Basing on related theories of systematology and social sociology, the author set up theoretical framework for analyzing school reforming mechanism, review the present existing problems of elementary education of our country on the basis of exploring and analyzing structure and operational moulds of the reforming mechanism, and raise operative suggestions that are of innovative significance from the angle of research and the perspective of deepening theoretical transformation of schools reforming. Of course, due to limitations of my own abilities and the shortage of data, so the rationality of theoretical framework about school reforming mechanism remains to be seen. As the classification of literature on reforming mechanism at home and abroad is not adequate, therefore, thus the field vision of this research is affected to some extent, which is the direction I will be endeavored to pursue in future.
