ABSTRACT: The evaluation of moral development of junior high school students is an
evaluation of the effectiveness of junior high school students’ moral
development. For a long time, due to schools’ emphasis on “intellectual
education” and neglect of “moral education”, the moral development of junior
high school students has not been paid attention to, which is contrary to the
educational goal of cultivating well-rounded people. Based on the background of
students’ comprehensive development and value-added evaluation, this research
focuses on the evaluation of moral development of junior high school students
by using NVivo for three-level coding. By doing so, 3 first-level indicators,
11 second-level indicators, and 27 third-level indicators are
obtained. The evaluation index system of moral development of junior high
school students is constructed. Three first-level including Ideals and Beliefs,
Social Responsibility, Manners and Behaviors and 11 second-level
indicators are interpreted. Finally, a value-added evaluation plan to explore the moral progress of junior high
school students such as establishing students’ moral development portfolios, is proposed, in order to provide reference for the
construction of evaluation index system of moral development of junior high
school students.
