Regional development experience at home and abroad shows that:A regional is difficult to maintain sustained economic development by relying on land, mineral resources and other natural conditions, and the development of education provides the the basis for pursuing for the latecomer regions.Thus improving the regional education investment in China is one of the most important way to promote the coordinated development of the regional economy, reduce regional economic gap. How to further promote economic growth, at the same time, reducing regional education investment gap is currently one of the important problems facing China.This study is based on the ideas of human capital theory, education investment diversification and other basic theories of relevant regional education investment,analysis of evolution process of Chinese regional education investment gap, by constructing dynamic model to analyze and decide the main factors of the regional education investment gap, and work out regional education investment efficiency.On this basis, according to the principle of "justice and efficiency" common enhancement, area per capita education investment and government investment proportion of state model combined, from the point of view of cybernetics to design China optimization of regional education investment layout, narrowing regional education investment gap scheme, and put forward the corresponding policies and measures.(1) Modeling analysis of the evolution and the determinants of Chinese area per capita education investment differenceThis paper analyzes the evolution of China’s regional differences in investment in education by using variation coefficient and Theil coefficient.Studies have shown that the absolute gap in China’s per capita investment in education has extended while the relative gap has narrowed in recent years. Theil index and variation coefficient have "inverted U-distribution" and the "inflection point"("inverted U-distribution" a turning point) of the gap between regional changes of China’s per capita investment in education is from2002to2006.From the variation coefficient, the coefficient of variation in2002achieves the highest (0.722). and then began to decline in2008, reduced to0.3; From tyer coefficient, the tyer coefficient in1996is0.09, and then have an ascendant trend on the whole, reaching the highest (0.178) in2006, and then began to decline in2008. reduced to0.146.Different with previous research, this paper built a dynamic evolution model.with a two stage (from1998to2004.from2005to2010) of regional differences (fairness)in per capita education investment.This paper builds a model of investment in regional education by using the relevant data of the investment in education in various regions of China.Studies have shown that the growth rate of investment in regional education has negative correlation with the number of initial investment in education and has positive correlation with regional GDP growth and growth rate of fiscal spending on education. This shows that since1998, especially after2000, the gap in various parts of China’s investment in education has been narrowed and has been began to appear β condition for convergence, these are the results of developing the western region and changing in the investment system.The development of the western region, revitalizing northeast, the rise of central over the years, all over the country per capita education investment has grow very fast, and backward areas per capita education investment growth faster, thus began to appear around the per capita education investment trend of convergence, this basical reason is that after the development of the western region, the central financial tilt and western local finance for education investment is growing rapidly, as well as the western non-governmental folk investment (including social groups and individual education, education funding, miscellaneous fees, etc.) grows rapidly and other reasons.(2) China’s regional education investment efficiency of data envelopment analysis (DEA) about model and system factor analysisDifferent with previous research, this paper, this paper analyzes the using efficient of education investment in every region by using data envelopment analysis method from the input-output angle while taking "state financial funding for education""community donors and fund-raising school funding" as input index and "a number of college students" as the output index. Studies have shown that relative using efficiency of the spending on education in the southeast coastal areas is the lowest while it is relatively high in central and western regions.Just in comparison with investment system and funding sources, relative loss rate of education investment in every region, social donations and fund-raising school funding are the highest and other funds for education, social organizations and individual citizens follow one by one while the state financial education fund is the lowest. And using econometric software relevant data to construct regional education investment efficiency and investment system (tuition and miscellaneous fees accounted for the proportion of the total education investment) model. To discuss.Education investment system and the market factors on the education investment efficiency influence with distinguishing three kinds factors.(3) The Analysis on Optimal Control of the education investment of Chinese Regional based on the principle of "efficiency and fair improve together"It has many debates about education investment efficiency and fair which is more important problem.It is "absolutely fair" before reform and opening up, it is "efficiency comes first, balances fairness" since the reform and opening up; For in the future, some scholars put forward that it should be "fair priority, and giving consideration to efficiency" other scholars also put forward that it should be "fair and efficiency phase equilibrium". This paper argues that it should take the policy of "efficiency and fair improve together"In this way, the principle of the efficiency and fair improve together is quantized as the objective function, efficiency and the per capita number of students as control variable, the establishment of per capita education investment and government education investment accounted for the proportion of all education into the equation of state, and introducing Hamilton function, so as to determine the long-term equilibrium between the optimal control of the relationship of the area per capita student number, college students accounted for the proportion of all students, investment efficiency, and so on.The rules require, in increasing social demand about the higher education cases, namely " the proportion that college students accounted for all students" improving circumstances, it is necessary to put the narrowing regional education gap (improve education fair degree) and "regional education investment efficiency" keep at higher level or improve synchronous. It is important instruction significance to guide the optimization of education investment provinces.(4) Increasing at the same trend of the fairness and efficiency of regional investment in educationWith the evolution of the regional economy layout and the shift from extensive to intensive type of the mode of economic development (the improvement of proportion of knowledge-intensive industries and so on). the employment environment of college graduates will change greatly, and the demand of Regional Education is becoming large, thus stimulating the rapid growth of the regional investment in education;On the other hand, the economic growth rate in the Midwest region will be higher than the eastern region, and the growth of fiscal revenue will also be higher than the eastern region, which provides good conditions to accelerate the Midwest Regional financial investment in education. Central Education Finance tilt to the central and western regions, as well as the education system and the education system, further reform and improve the mechanism, which will simultaneously improve the fairness and efficiency of the regional education investment.
