摘要
2015年初美国总统奥巴马提出"美国学院承诺"计划,拟对符合一定条件的社区学院学生提供两年免费教育,重振美国高等教育强国地位,重塑美国的中产阶级,实现国家繁荣及公民更好生活的美国梦。"美国学院承诺"计划认为:大学学位是最可靠的中产阶级门票,要进一步推进高等教育普及化;要让每一个家庭都能负担得起高等教育,进一步推进教育公平;社会认可的是个体的努力和绩效,要进一步推进绩能主义。反思我国高等职业教育,需要适度延长受教育年限;财政投入需要更加关注学生资助;社会机制需要更加关注技术技能型人才社会地位的跃迁。
America＇ s president Obama announced his proposal for ＂America＇ s College Promise＂ at the beginning of 2015, an initiative aimed at making community college free for all students, reviving its strong power of higher education, reshaping America＇ s middle class, realizing its dream of prosperity and a better life for its citizens. ＂America＇ s College Promise＂ considers that a college degree is the most trustworthy ticket for entering middle class and the promise can further popularize higher education; it will make higher education affordable to each family and further improve education equality; it will further improve meritocracy, which is highly recognized by society. Reconsidering the higher vocational education in China, it is necessary to prolong the time for education, to offer more financial aids to students themselves and to concern more about the improvement of social status of technological human resources.
