Quality Equity of Higher Education Calls for Information Equity

Education involves communication designed to bring about learning and the transfer of information. Education equity, at its initial stage, is opportunity equity; at its following stage, is quality equity. Quality equity of HE is determined to a large extent by information equity of HE which is determined to a large extent by the flow of information of education. Information blockage leads to information inequity which hinders quality equity of HE. The attainment of the preset objectives of quality of HE is determined by information equity of HE. Information equity is basic to quality equity of HE. To clear information blockage is the inevitable choice to realise information equity of HE. Information blockage falls into three categories: information blockage of capability (IBC), information blockage of attitude (IBA) and information blockage of motivation (IBM). IBM can be cleared by promoting teachers' academic morality; IBA by cultivating their responsibility ethics; and IBC by encouraging them to participate in curriculum development. Only when information blockage is cleared and information equity is ensured can quality equity of HE be ensured. And only when quality equity of HE is realised can students' career equity be realised. And only when students' career equity is realised can social equity be realised. Thus social harmony.
