Abstract
In this paper, we present Edu-Values, the first Chinese education values evaluation benchmark that includes seven core values: professional philosophy, teachers' professional ethics, education laws and regulations, cultural literacy, educational knowledge and skills, basic competencies and subject knowledge. We meticulously design 1,418 questions, covering multiple-choice, multi-modal question answering, subjective analysis, adversarial prompts, and Chinese traditional culture (short answer) questions. We conduct human feedback based automatic evaluation over 21 state-of-the-art (SoTA) LLMs, and highlight three main findings: (1) due to differences in educational culture, Chinese LLMs outperform English LLMs, with Qwen 2 ranking the first with a score of 81.37; (2) LLMs often struggle with teachers' professional ethics and professional philosophy; (3) leveraging Edu-Values to build an external knowledge repository for RAG significantly improves LLMs' alignment. This demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed benchmark.
