Abstract

Based on a systematical summary of relevant research on university teaching efficiency, an evaluation index system was built to evaluate teaching efficiency of “Double First-Class” universities in China. The evaluation model to evaluate the teaching efficiency of these universities was built based on Slack-Based Measure model using Superefficiency Data Envelopment Analysis (SBM-DEA). Teaching efficiency of 36 “Double First-Class” universities had been evaluated after their assessment indexes data had been collected. The influencing relations between the teaching efficiency of “Double First-Class” universities and dual prices of each evaluation index had been analysed. It had been proven that teaching efficiency could be greatly improved by increasing the index value with a higher double price. We proceeded to count the frequencies of evaluation indicators with the highest or the second highest dual prices. The indexes with higher total importance were defined as the key factors for the development of teaching efficiency in China’s “Double First-Class” universities. Several countermeasures had been proposed to improve the development of “Double First-Class” universities’ teaching efficiency. Finally, based on the above theoretical research, the evaluation and decision analysis software for teaching efficiency in “Double First-Class” universities in China had been developed by Visual Basic 2015 and MATLAB 2015 with Access database to store the data. It provides a convenient visualization tool to manage the data of the evaluation index system and make the data analysis of the SBM-DEA model.

Highlights

  • Does the development of the world economy depend on talents but it depends on the improvement of national and international competitiveness

  • We obtained the data of the teaching efficiency evaluation index system in 2018 by consulting various sources as the Internet, statistical yearbooks, Bulletin of National Teaching Achievement Award and National University Students’ “Creative Youth”, and “Challenge Cup” Competition Results Communique, etc

  • To evaluate teaching efficiency of “Double First-Class” universities and popularize the theorical model, we developed the visual decision analysis system to manage the data of evaluation system indexes, implement the algorithm of SBM-Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) model, and analyse the key influencing factors analysis of “Double First-Class” universities’ teaching efficiency by using Visual Basic 2015 and MATLAB 2015

Summary

Introduction

Does the development of the world economy depend on talents but it depends on the improvement of national and international competitiveness. E Guiding Opinions on Speeding up the Construction of “Double First-Class” Universities was issued in 2018. It emphasizes the first-class undergraduate education as an important content, where multiple comprehensive evaluation criteria must be necessarily adhered. Chen Baosheng, China’s Minister of Education, pointed out that one of the main directions of education reform and Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society development in 2018 was to pay attention to the performance management of “Double First-Class” universities and to study and formulate their performance evaluation method. Erefore, discussion on the evaluation theory and promoting methods and strategies of efficient teaching are an urgent need for the construction and development of “Double First-Class” universities in China and an urgent need in promoting the rapid development of high-level undergraduate education Chen Baosheng, China’s Minister of Education, pointed out that one of the main directions of education reform and Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society development in 2018 was to pay attention to the performance management of “Double First-Class” universities and to study and formulate their performance evaluation method. erefore, discussion on the evaluation theory and promoting methods and strategies of efficient teaching are an urgent need for the construction and development of “Double First-Class” universities in China and an urgent need in promoting the rapid development of high-level undergraduate education
