Comparative Study Of Physics Examination Papers Before And After The New College Entrance Examination Based On Core Competencies

Education,technology,and talent are the fundamental and strategic support for comprehensively building a socialist modernization.In the new era,the fundamental,pioneering,and overall role and status of education are more prominent.To build a strong country with modern education,the CPC Central Committee,the State Council,and relevant departments have successively issued a series of important documents to comprehensively promote education reform and education evaluation reform in China.Among them,improving the system of core competency cultivation for students and the new college entrance exam reform are the current focuses of education reform and the main goals of education research and teaching.This paper is based on the core physics literacy to conduct a comprehensive comparative study of the physics papers of the college entrance examination in Shandong Province before and after the reform of the new college entrance examination for six years.The main body of the article is divided into five parts:The first part is the introduction,which describes the research background,research objectives and significance,research route and methods of the paper.The second part is the research and theoretical basis of relevant topics at home and abroad in recent years.The third part is the construction of the research index system and statistical scale,mainly describing the content of the research index system and the coding construction process of related statistical scales.The fourth part is the analysis of statistical data.Based on the statistics and data organization of the six sets of papers,the paper conducts a comprehensive analysis of the physics papers of the college entrance examination in Shandong Province from three perspectives: paper structure,content and core literacy presentation from 2017 to 2022.The fifth provides teaching suggestions and applications.Based on the analysis in the previous sections,recommendations are made from three aspects: teacher instruction,student learning,and test-making.These recommendations are further illustrated with practical examples.The sixth includes the conclusion and outlook of the article,which covers the main findings and limitations of the study,as well as future prospects for research and development.Based on data analysis,this paper draws the following conclusions:1.In terms of exam structure,the types of questions,score distribution,and number of questions on the physics exam for Shandong Province’s high school entrance exam have all undergone changes since the new college entrance exam reform,increasing the flexibility and comprehensiveness of the exam compared to before the reform.2.In terms of exam content,the distribution of knowledge in the six-year exam papers is basically consistent,and the breadth of knowledge covered by the new college entrance exam has significantly increased compared to before the reform,with a greater coverage of basic knowledge.The difficulty level of the exam questions before and after the reform differs significantly,with the new college entrance exam questions being significantly more difficult,with higher demands on mathematical reasoning abilities.The questions also emphasize innovation and open-endedness,and place greater emphasis on testing students’ abilities.3.In terms of core competency testing,there are many similarities and differences between the six-year exam papers and the new college entrance exam.The conceptual competency in physics has been a key focus in all six years,with the emphasis on the concepts of motion and interaction.The scientific inquiry competency has a relatively low degree of involvement in the six-year exam papers,mainly in experimental questions.The scientific attitude and responsibility competencies do not include the element of social responsibility in either the sixyear exam papers or the new college entrance exam.The scientific attitude element is only slightly involved in experimental questions.After the implementation of the new college entrance exam reform policy in Shandong Province,the testing of scientific thinking competencies has significantly increased in the new college entrance exam,especially in calculation questions.The new college entrance exam tests more scientific essential elements than before,and the relationship between the exam and daily life has been qualitatively strengthened.Overall,after the new college entrance exam reform,the distribution and quantity of core competencies tested in the physics exam for Shandong Province have significantly improved compared to before the reform.The exam more comprehensively assesses students’ overall abilities,and the exam’s value-led role is more prominent.
