The Research of Graduate Student Achievement Evaluation Based on Information Screening in Context of Free Riding

Abstract

In view of the increasingly serious “free-rider†problems among colleague students especially graduate students involving the tertiary education courses, this paper analyzes the behaviors of both teacher (principal) as well as student (agent) in incentive contract on the premise of information asymmetry. Subsequently, the paper intends to propose a student’s achievement evaluation model based on information screening and methodologically employs the dynamic simulation so as to operate the digital simulation. The result reflects a mitigation of students’ free-riding behaviors due to the information screening via incentive contract menu. Meanwhile the ratio of checking for routine performances is raised in order to maintain and improve the effect of information screening.
