Building the Internal Quality Assurance System of Higher Education:From Theory to Action
The internal quality assurance of higher education is replacing the external one and has become a key component of higher education governance today.When building the internal quality assurance system of higher education,we should adopt a systematic,problem-oriented,goal-directed and human-centered approach.To be more specific,we need to strive for three goals,namely,sup-porting student growth,cultivating talent with both moral integrity and professional competence,and striving for continuous im-provement of higher education quality.To achieve those goals,we need to delegate tasks and responsibilities among the college/uni-versity,school,and department.Besides,we should adopt a three-step model consisting of goal formulation,policy implementation and outcome evaluation to guarantee continuous quality improvement in higher education.
