It is assumed that the two pillars of university entrance examination reform were broken and returned to the beginning because the utilization of the private examination for the four English skills scheduled for the common test for university admission and the implementation of the written questions in mathematics and Japanese were postponed. The tone stands out in each media.Furthermore, there is talk of returning the name of the new "Common Test for University Admissions" to the National Center Test for University Admissions.However, it has not returned to the beginning. The 2021 entrance exam will definitely change.
There are many system changes other than "English" and "description"
In November of last year, there was an announcement to postpone the use of the private English test scheduled for the Common Test for University Admissions, and in December, the introduction of descriptive questions scheduled to be conducted in mathematics and Japanese was also postponed. rice field.In each media, the mainstream argument is that the reform of university entrance examinations has failed and has returned to the beginning. The expression that the two pillars were broken would be correct because the two major system changes would not be implemented.However, there are not only two "pillars" of university entrance examination reform.
Among the high school connection reforms, there were three major changes in the university entrance examination reform system.Converting the English of the common test to four skill evaluations and introducing descriptive questions into the common test are two of them.And the other is to introduce new rules for individual tests conducted individually by each university, not for common tests.The points here are (XNUMX) making it mandatory to utilize any of essays, presentations, subject / subject tests, common tests, etc. in the AO entrance examination / recommendation entrance examination, (XNUMX) improving the contents of the survey, and (XNUMX) applying. The AO entrance exam will be changed from August to September, and the acceptance announcement time will be set to November or later for the AO entrance exam and December or later for the recommended entrance exam.
July 2017, 7 From the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology "Formulation of implementation policy for high school connection reform"
Implementation of individual test reforms has not been postponed.Therefore, each university and high school is currently preparing for the response.In particular, along with "② Improving the contents of the survey report", among the three elements of academic ability, "attitude to learn independently and collaborate with various people" is evaluated by the general entrance examination with a large number of examinees. Being asked was an annoying problem for both college and high school.As an aside, since this "attitude to learn independently and collaborate with various people" is long, it is sometimes abbreviated as "independence, etc." I misunderstand that it is "independence".The target of evaluation is "learning attitude".The misunderstanding that this "independence, etc." is "power toward learning, humanity, etc." in the next course of study is further deepened.However, since it is practically impossible to evaluate this "independence, etc." in the general entrance examination, it is expected that it will become almost a mere ghost except that some universities score surveys and reasons for admission. increase.
As mentioned above, the reform of the individual test for the third pillar is steadily progressing, and although it is a common test that is said to be "broken", the tendency of questions to be asked will change significantly.
