On the Impact of"Three-Supervisor System"on the Training of Postgraduates in Education at High-level Comprehensive Universities,Involving Key Issues and Optimized Paths
Supervisor team building is an important part of the cultivation for postgraduates majoring in education.Through interviews with postgraduates in education and the three types of supervisors in the"three-supervisor system"at high-level comprehensive universities,the authors code the information obtained.The results show that the"three-supervisor system"has achieved initial success in the overall process of guidance,professional quality improvement,educational enthusiasm enhancement and experience satisfaction,but there are problems related to the lack of coordination among supervisors,insufficient interaction between supervisors and students,and the excessive attention paid by supervisors to scientific research over teaching at universities.Based on the summary and analysis of the underlying causes,the authors suggest that in order to further improve the practical effect of the"three-supervisors system",we should work out a partnering mechanism for supervisors,regularly evaluate the guidance performance of supervisors,break through cross-organizational learning barriers by relying on educational information technology,carry out project-based teaching,and probe into diversified and flexible teaching and evaluation systems.
