“两条腿走路”,是小平同志新时期之初提出的发展我国高等教育的重要思想,它成为之后构建我国高等教育体系的指导思想,也直接催生了我国的自学考试制度。自学考试的多年实践证朗,“两条腿走路”的思想符合我国高等教育的国情,在今天仍具有重大的现实意义。 “Walking on Two Legs” is the important thought that Comrade Deng Xiaoping put forward at the beginning of the new era to develop our country’s higher education. It has become the guiding ideology for building our country’s higher education system since then and has directly spawned our self-study examination system. Years of self-learning examinations have proved that the idea of ​​“walking on two legs” conforms to the national conditions of our higher education and today still has great practical significance.
