General education courses are an important carrier to achieve the goals of general education and the main way to cultivate comprehensive quality talents needed by today's economy and society.After students learn general education courses,how to evaluate their own ability to get different degrees of changes is the main issue discussed in this article.Based on the existing research,there are few studies on the evaluation of the learning results of general education courses,and there is no clear evaluation standard.This research uses Gagne's theory of learning results classification and Taylor's theory of curriculum evaluation,and takes D university juniors and above as the research objects,with the goal of exploring the evaluation of the learning results of general education courses,and evaluating the learning results of general education courses in colleges and universities.The construction of indicators is studied.Defines the related concepts of general education,general education courses,general education curriculum evaluation and learning results.Under the guidance of the principles of the evaluation index system construction,it sorts out the general education development at home and abroad that represents better general education curriculum models and general education courses.On this basis,it integrates and analyzes the evaluation elements of general education curriculum learning results.Drawing lessons from relevant existing research and theoretical foundations,we designed first-level indicators with three dimensions of knowledge and culture,comprehensive ability,and emotional attitude,including knowledge breadth,cultural literacy,wisdom skills,cognitive thinking,practical ability,personal emotions,and social attitudes.The evaluation index system of the learning results of general education courses with eighteen three-level indicators such as knowledge integration and knowledge integration is used to calculate the weight of each level of indicators using the expert scoring method and the analytic hierarchy process.Based on the design of the evaluation index system for learning results of general education courses,this research designed a survey questionnaire for the evaluation of learning results of general education courses.Through the questionnaire,undergraduates of D university and above were selected for empirical research.The study finds that different genders and different academic stages have no significant differences in the evaluation dimensions of the general education curriculum learning results;there are significant differences in the cultural literacy dimensions of different professional categories,and students' perception of the importance of general education courses exists in all dimensions of the evaluation results significant differences and professional performance rankings have significant differences in students' knowledge breadth,cultural literacy and personal emotions.At the same time,there is a significant correlation among the seven dimensions of general education course learning results evaluation.Based on the research conclusions obtained from the empirical analysis,suggestions and countermeasures for improving the learning results of general education courses are put forward,mainly from the establishment of educational goals and establishing scientific general education concepts;strengthening publicity and education to increase the importance of general education courses for teachers and students;knowledge and cultural content of the curriculum,taking into account the cultivation of comprehensive abilities and emotional attitudes;optimizing the aesthetic education content of general education courses,focusing on cultivating students' teamwork ability;strengthening the construction of online courses,expanding the resources of general education courses;measuring the diversity of learning results,and building general knowledge curriculum evaluation mechanism;clarify the responsibilities of general education organizations and improve the management performance of general education courses in seven aspects.
