【摘要】 20世纪80年代中期以来,教育质量成为各国高等教育发展进程中倍受关注的主题之一。无论是发达国家还是发展中国家,都掀起了高等教育质量保障热潮,试图建立一个各方接受的、合理的和公平的高等教育质量保障体系。与其它国家相比,美国的高等教育质量保障体系历史悠久,具有较为成熟的理论研究和丰富的实践经验,值得我国研究和借鉴。国外关于美国高等教育质量保障体系的理论研究已较为成熟,我国于20世纪80年代后期开始了关于美国高等教育质量保证的相关理论研究,现已积累了一定的研究成果。但这些理论研究主要探讨美国高等教育质量保障体系中的认证制度,对美国高等教育质量保障体系的其它方面较少涉及。因此,本文采用文献法、分析法和比较法等研究方法,拟从不同角度、全面地阐述美国高等教育质量保障体系的形成与发展、基本框架与运作,总结该体系的主要特点、当前存在的问题及其对策,探讨它对我国高等教育及其质量保证工作的借鉴与启示。更多还原

【Abstract】 Since the mid 1980s, quality of higher education has been one of the hottest issues in many countries. There has been an upsurge of quality assurance in higher education, whether in the developed countries or in the developing countries. Many countries make great efforts to establish a sound and equitable quality assurance system of higher education. Compared with other countries’, the quality assurance system of higher education in the United States is old, rather mature and perfect. There are many precious experiences we should learn from it. Internationally, the researches on this theme are many. Since the late 1980s, researches related to this theme have been appearing in our country. Those studies mainly illuminate accreditation in the quality assurance system of higher education in the United States, but less account for other aspects of quality assurance system. As a result, the paper mainly adopts the following approaches to the analysis of the quality assurance system of higher education in the United States: documents reading approach, comparative approach, analytic approach, and so on. The paper endeavors to fully analyze the development, general framework and procedures of the quality assurance system of higher education in the United States, summarize its characteristics, review the problems existing currently and the countermeasures to those problems, and discuss the inspirations we can draw from it.更多还原
