In the morning of November 27, 2017, Suzhou Cedar Bay Education Technology Co., LTD. "New college entrance Examination new strategy" walk class elective science cloud platform press conference was held in Beijing International Convention Center E4 hall conference area. At the press conference, Cedar Bay Education Technology officially launched the latest research and development, big data under the guidance of the new college entrance examination model based on class selection cloud platform. At the same time, it published the first professional class selection guide book in China, "Class Selection Guide Plan under the new College Entrance Examination Mode", edited by Dr. Li Wenjian, the founder and CEO of Cedar Bay Education Technology, who is a doctor of the University of Hong Kong and an international assessment expert.
Big data guided by the class selection solution
The cloud platform is jointly developed by Suzhou Xuesuwan Education Technology Co., LTD., the Academic Planning and Development Institute of Soochow University, and well-known experts from the Department of Psychology of East China Normal University. It is the first time in China to combine intellectual and non-intellectual factors. It is based on big data analysis and based on students' academic level, subject ability, career interest and personality traits. The test results are appropriately related to college majors to provide a scientific basis for students' course selection orientation, provide data support for schools to guide students to choose courses by classes, set courses and stratified and classified teaching, and provide long-term guidance for students' career planning in high school to choose courses by classes.
At the press conference, Li Wenjian, CEO and founder of Cedar Bay Education Technology, introduced to the participants that the cloud platform of class selection science is different from some existing college entrance examination and career planning schemes. The cloud platform not only evaluates students from the perspective of non-intellectual factors, such as students' personality traits and career interests, but also fully considers students' intelligence factors, that is, academic performance, subject ability and other important factors that really play a decisive role in evaluating students' personality traits and career preferences.
"In terms of subject ability, Cedar Bay Education Technology uses the international advanced cognitive diagnostic technology, without changing the previous test form, combined with Gardner's multiple intelligences theory, from the four dimensions of knowledge, skills, ability and thinking tendency, to carry out an all-round three-dimensional display of students' subject development potential. From the perspective of personality traits, combined with classic theoretical basis, strict implementation rules, strong practicability, and the highest international recognition of the MBTI(Miles type index) test, and through a lot of experiments and practices, the test will be localized, so that it is more in line with the actual situation and characteristics of Chinese students. From the perspective of subject interest, professional interest and career interest, Cedar Bay Education Technology introduces the theory of career interest which has broad social influence proposed by John Holland, professor of psychology at Johns Hopkins University and famous career guidance expert in the United States.
According to the Social Survey Center of China Youth Daily, 67 percent of students do not know their major. 67.9% said they were "blind" when applying for majors. More than 71.2% of respondents said they would like to choose another major if possible. The "Cloud platform of class selection" launched at this conference combined with big data analysis enables students to truly choose their own strengths, favorite, suitable and potential needs when choosing examination subjects, so that students' choice reflects the greatest advantages of the subject and at the same time explores the academic development direction conducive to their own long-term development.
The cloud platform of Test and evaluation of new college entrance examination, class selection and subject selection, was newly launched in early September this year, and has gained wide attention. At present, it has begun to promote pilot programs in Shandong, Guizhou, Shaanxi and other regions, and has been highly recognized.
Professional education assessment to help teaching college entrance examination reform
Under the background of the new college entrance examination reform, establishing and improving the third-party education evaluation mechanism is an important mechanism that the Ministry of Education and even local education bureaus are vigorously promoting. And Cedar Bay Education Technology is based on years of professional accumulation in the field of education evaluation, to help promote the domestic education reform of the professional local education evaluation institutions.
On November 24, 2015, Dr. Li Wenjian established Suzhou Xuesewan Education Technology Co., LTD., and the company's test and evaluation project was officially launched. At the beginning of the project was favored, and obtained the joint incubation of Asuka Village and Su Da Tiangong. In December 2015, Dr. Li Wenjian finalized angel round financing of 10 million level, which was led by Beijing Century Good Future Education Technology Co., LTD. In October 2016, it set up a subsidiary company in Beijing and an office in Zhengzhou to collect more abundant educational resources. At the same time, we fully launched the urban partnership plan and successively signed urban partners in Jinan of Shandong, Liaocheng of Shandong, Heze of Shandong, Xuzhou of Jiangsu, Yueyang of Hunan and Huludao of Liaoning, so as to further expand the influence of Xuedwan Company in the education market.
Founded two years ago, in just two years, the test has covered 26 provinces and cities in Jiangsu, Shandong, Hubei, Hunan, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Yunnan, Henan, Guizhou and other provinces, accumulating millions of students' academic big data. It has signed strategic cooperation agreements with Shandong Liaocheng Education Bureau and other multi-party cooperation projects, which have been widely recognized by customers. To become a benchmark enterprise in the field of third-party education evaluation. With the education concept as the core, the pilot achievement evaluation introduces the international advanced cognitive diagnostic evaluation technology, combines the big data, cloud computing, machine learning, project reflection theory and other scientific means to conduct multi-dimensional accurate analysis of students' learning situation, and creates an adaptive academic evaluation cloud platform with independent intellectual property rights based on cognitive diagnostic evaluation. The platform brings together millions of four-dimensional question banks, intelligent paper formation system based on deep learning and artificial intelligence, and intelligent push system based on cognitive diagnostic evaluation.
The Opinions of The State Council on Deepening the Reform of the Examination and Enrollment System issued in September 2014 set "Forming an examination and enrollment mode featuring classified examination, comprehensive evaluation and multiple enrollment" as the main goal of the new round of college entrance examination reform. The "3+3" mode designed under the new college entrance examination reform gives students full freedom to choose and decide the combination of subjects independently. Education Minister Chen Baosheng said during the 19th National Congress that the past five years have seen an all-round deepening of education reform. In terms of the reform of the college entrance examination and enrollment system, pilot programs have been implemented in Shanghai and Zhejiang this year, and after evaluation, the new college entrance examination reform system will be fully established by 2020.
