摘要: 在中国大学快速扩大的时期,应当重新审视学术创新的评估过程。西方大学模式受到推崇的原因是人们认为它可以带来创新和价值的创造。应更好地理解学术出版,尤其是著作和期刊论文的出版。论文提出了下列问题:评估创造性是否有客观的方法?对出版物进行计数这一最简单最原始的评估创造性的方法究竟有多大价值?学者们应当关注学术出版物的内容而非数量。

关键词: 大学, 创新, 评估创造性, 判断, 内容, 科层制

Abstract: At the present time when the university system in China is growing, it is necessary for people to reconsider the process of evaluating scholarly productivity. The model of the Western university is honored because people believe that it leads to innovation, the creation of value. Therefore a closer understanding of scholarly productions, especially publications of books and journal articles, should be under going. Are there objective methods for the assessment of productivity? How valuable is counting numbers of publications, the simplest, crudest form of measuring productivity? The author urges Chinese scholars to understand that they should depend on close judgment of the content of scholarly work other than simple numbers.

Key words: innovation, measuring productivity, judgment, bureaucracy, content, university
