For all college students, four years of college is the most precious golden period in life. They walked into the university gate with lofty ideals and bright prospects for the future. In order to develop themselves in an all-round way, they know that college life is not only about learning, but also more colorful content. As a result, the ivory tower is full of youth and flying personality. However, at the same time, for some students, the bench is becoming more and more restless-in order to increase the employment weight, blind research, skipping classes and failing classes for various reasons ... Research: Xiao Chen, a law major in northwest university of politics and law, has not had a weekend for a long time, and his weekends are always full of training courses of one kind or another. I am currently attending a training course for human resource managers. Before that, he also passed the exams of property manager and computer programming. He said: "When I first went to college, my seniors and sisters advised us that there is great pressure to find a job now, so we must take more certificates, and liberal arts will not drag us down!" In various colleges and universities, there are not a few college students like Xiao Chen who are keen on textual research. On the advertisement column of university campus, there are all kinds of training advertisements for textual research. In addition to the familiar CET-4 and CET-6 and computer national certificates, there are various professional qualification examinations, such as certified public accountant certificate, lawyer certificate, property manager certificate, senior secretary certificate, tour guide certificate, securities and futures practitioner certificate, etc. Students who are ready to engage in IT industry also need to obtain Oracle certification, Linux certification, JA-VA qualification and various certifications from Microsoft. Due to the busy research, many students relaxed their professional courses, and some even skipped classes to attend training courses. However, the certificate has not become an inevitable weight on the road to employment. Xiao Wang, a graduate who holds the qualification certificate of securities and futures practitioners, encountered the embarrassment that the securities company refused to sign when he was employed. Xiao Wang's major is biology. Although he has a securities qualification certificate, the professional gap makes him unable to effectively cope with the work of the industry during his internship. He said: "Because research delayed professional courses, although I have a certificate, I still don't know anything. It is not enough to rely solely on textual research. The most important thing is to see what you are interested in and the comprehensive quality of all aspects. " A teacher in the Employment Guidance Center of Northwest University believes that at present, college students choose to apply for qualification certificates, without combining their majors and future career orientation, and only blindly obtain so-called "hot" certificates, which is not conducive to the improvement of students' comprehensive quality. For undergraduates, it is urgent to enhance their employability and improve their professional practice level. Instead of spending time and money on some certificates with low gold content, it is better to seek internship opportunities in this major. Skipping class: Helpless or strange? Miss Wang, who teaches philosophy in a university in Ann, has always felt very lost. Since she started teaching in March this year, less than half of the students have taken Marxist philosophy classes, but few of the students who have taken classes have listened carefully. It is understood that many college teachers have had this kind of "encounter" with Mr. Xiao. According to the survey of People's Daily Online, the truancy rate of college students in China is over 25% for basic courses, around 20% for specialized courses and over 50% for public courses. Many students admit that they skip classes or often skip classes. Zhou Xiao, a 2003-grade student from the College of Literature of Shaanxi Normal University, is a famous truant king in his class. When it comes to truancy, Zhou Xiao has a clear idea: "Truancy is like a routine for me. Not only I, but almost no one in our class has skipped class. At present, many courses in universities are seriously divorced from reality, belonging to the kind of' two ears don't listen to things outside the window'. If you don't need it at all in the future, is it necessary to take courses? Or some courses are too boring or some teachers teach them badly, which makes people uninterested. These classes are not as good as their own, or they are irresponsible to themselves. " In Xiao Ni's eyes, social practice is far more important than attending classes. "The purpose of going to college is to get employment. Besides taking some compulsory professional courses, I spend most of my time in social practice. As for the school's courses, most of them can be rushed through before the exam, and there is no need to guard the classroom all day. I think what I have learned from social practice is more conducive to my future employment and personal development. " In view of this common phenomenon of students skipping classes, Professor Zhang Yu of Northwest University believes that "the phenomenon of college students skipping classes should be analyzed from two aspects. On the one hand, it reflects that students' learning motivation is unclear, their future development is not estimated enough, their understanding of learning is insufficient, and they lack learning motivation. On the other hand, it reflects that the school curriculum is unreasonable and unscientific, and the curriculum content is outdated and not new, which leads students to think that class is of little value, and even it is better to go to the library to read books, which is bound to increase the occurrence of truancy. " At the same time, he stressed that students' main business is learning, so they should cherish time and lay a solid foundation. At the same time, schools should further improve the curriculum and teaching methods. Failing the subject: excuse or sloppiness? Recently, Xiao Li, who is about to graduate from a university in Xi 'an, is working hard every day. Next week, he will take the "clean exam" organized by the school for senior students, which is the last chance for the school to make up the exam for graduates who still fail the subject. After four years in college, Xiao Li failed in many subjects. "In fact, many exams can be done with a little care, but I have never taken it seriously and now I have suffered." Failing the exam is a popular saying. Some students who often repeat grades often comfort themselves with "college life without repetition is incomplete" in private. Xiao Liu, a sophomore at Northwest University, is the "champion" in the class. Almost every semester, he failed two or three courses. In the face of failing the course, he was very calm: "I was too nervous in high school. When I first entered the university, I relaxed my study and didn't adapt to the teaching methods of the university, so I failed. " I got used to it after that. After all, grades are not the key to evaluating a person's quality! "Speaking of repeating grades, many college students think that this is not a serious matter, and the reasons are even more varied. Some are addicted to online games and often skip classes to soak in internet cafes; Some are too busy falling in love to study; Some are keen on making money part-time and disdain to study; Others attach importance to practice and ignore the classroom, and even skip classes to participate in social practice. Changqing Li, a teacher at Northwest University, thinks that there are many reasons for students' failure in exams, but the most important and fundamental reason is the improper style of study. In senior high school, students generally study passively under the supervision of parents and teachers because of the pressure of entering higher schools. After entering the university, self-study is the main task, and some students with poor control are faced with numerous temptations, and their minds are rarely focused on their studies. In addition, at present, the influence of different values on colleges and universities in society, learning is no longer considered as the main content of college life, so it is not surprising that it fails. Teacher Li stressed that employers with high scores and low abilities are not welcome, but the usual test scores represent students' learning attitude and learning ability. Failing the exam will make employers suspect that students don't like learning, can't learn or even be ignorant. Therefore, college students should not neglect exams and their studies.
