Even universities are engaged in general education, and students need to be quantified and standardized, but they will not cultivate many specialized talents. College students can not find a job after graduation, not really can not find, but deeply affected by standardized education, no outstanding scientific research ability, no outstanding contribution, and employers want college students with scientific research ability and outstanding contribution. In this way, the four years of college study is basically the accumulation of basic knowledge, rather than the study of outstanding contributions. Of course, college students want to get a strong scientific research ability, it is necessary to test graduate students, doctoral students, and even to study abroad, but many college students are mixed diplomas, but can not research what scientific research results, and even some college students experiment fraud, paper fraud, together with university professors have experiments and paper fraud, not to mention what college students fraud phenomenon. As a result, education seems to be facing unprecedented challenges.
Many advanced talents are those who have studied abroad and come back to engage in scientific research, rather than home-grown talents. Does it prove our educational backwardness? Of course it is. Education has come to today, there have been great problems. In addition to general education, it is to cultivate advanced and sophisticated professionals. However, most of our education focuses on general education, so that students can master some basic knowledge, but they do not pay attention to scientific research ability. It stands to reason that scientific research ability is right to start with children, not just to let children do scientific experiments, but to cultivate their scientific spirit from an early age, rather than cultivating their obedient habits. It can be said that many talented young people are delayed by our education. It is not that they are not creative, but they are seen as abnormal and not recognized by education. Education only recognizes students who go to school on time and observe discipline. If students get high marks, they will get more recognition. And a high score does not represent any scientific research ability, nor does it represent the generation of genius.
There is a math genius, every exam math exam full marks, but other subjects in a mess. According to our educational routine, they can't even get into the key high school, let alone the key university, and they can only become workers, not math geniuses. If they had been discovered as children doing mathematical research, they might have become great mathematicians. There are children from childhood language ability is relatively strong, writing essays can win awards, but math, English and other subjects are a mess, just read more, write a strong composition, if according to our education routine, even the key middle school can not be tested, will not become a writer, but become a bottom worker. If you get professional guidance from an early age, you may become a writer, a scholar, or even a professor in the Chinese department. There are not a few students who show good quality in other subjects, but are delayed by our education. Our education needs students with high grades and balanced development in all subjects, and teenagers who show good talent in a certain subject at an early age are mostly ignored and stifled by the grade evaluation mechanism.
It is not difficult for children to study and research specialized subjects when they are young, but the education system does not allow it and does not provide conditions for most children. Take a look at the school library, the collection of books is so little, even if there are a lot of books, professional books are not much, most of them are at the behest of the school president, buy cheap goods, discount goods, and the principal in the inside to eat how much rebate, it is unknown. Books are not professional, even if students want to see professional books, they can not see, and even teachers think that there is no so-called genius among the students, some are just mediocre, as long as the test score is good, and the study of mathematics, physics and other things, basically regarded as unprofessional. Just as Han Yu wrote in "Ma Said" : "the policy does not follow its way, the food cannot do its utmost, the song cannot understand its meaning, and the policy comes to it, saying: 'There is no horse in the world! 'Woo hoo! Is he really innocent? How ignorant he really is!" The key is not the lack of Qianli horses, but the lack of finding Qianli horses.
The quality of the teachers is not very high, are standardized by the education system, but also know that "learning and excellent official" life path, of course, more know that learning well can be tested to study in the big city, but also can be based in the big city life ideal. As a result, they have to educate students according to a standardized routine, once a student has a specialty in certain subjects, it is assumed that they just like it, and to prove themselves, they need to get high grades. And high scores are not the basis of scientific research, nor can they prove so-called genius. Of course, many talented children not only know a certain subject thoroughly, get high marks, but also innovate, but will not be encouraged by the teacher. The teacher asked them to focus on improving their scores in other subjects. Therefore, even if there are talented children, they will become mediocre. Even to the university, they only choose majors according to their original interests, but because of the limitations of scores, most of them can not achieve their wishes. If you study a major you don't like, you will find a job you don't like. The pressure of life has long made them unable to lift their heads, let alone the interest in research. When you have some money, you are already old, where is the idea of genius research?
Our education is to train students with certain basic knowledge, to train problem solving experts, to train students looking for jobs, rather than training scientific research talents, not to train talented young people. If you want to improve your scientific research ability, students can only take postgraduate and doctoral students, study abroad for research, and may not be able to study why, most of them are on the basis of predecessors to make some modifications and changes in research. If you cultivate scientific research ability from an early age, it does not seem to have such bad results. However, power and capital are invested in the process of market operation, too little investment in scientific research, too little investment in the training of talented children, and too little intervention, so that science and technology has always followed the footsteps of people, and has always failed to catch up with the pace.
