Generally speaking, university courses can be divided into two types: "compulsory courses" and "elective courses". Compulsory courses are also called professional compulsory courses. From the name, you can know that these are courses that must be studied in this major, such as Chinese history, world history, history of history, and economic history in history... These are all compulsory courses. If you fail the exam, you will definitely not be able to graduate. This is something that you have to say.

The general feature of the elective course is that even if you fail, you can theoretically make up for it in other ways. Of course, in theory.

Elective courses can be roughly divided into two types, namely "professional elective courses" and "public elective courses".

The former is for students in this major, such as American history, Japanese history, Southeast Asian history, and European history in history... These are professional elective courses, and students can theoretically choose according to their own interests.

Public elective courses can also be divided into two types, one is nominal, such as university English, university sports, ideological and political education, *** thoughts and socialism with Chinese characteristics... Although these are called elective courses, you dare to fail the exam, and in addition to sports, doctoral students cannot escape. This is the most criticized point in China's doctoral education. They have all been doctoral and even took political courses, which is a waste of time.

Another type is that Director Wang Yuan asked Chen Kan to teach this time. This is an elective course of the whole school. The class time of the Middle School Normal University is concentrated in the evening, with three classes at a time, which is for all students. Students can choose according to their own interests. This elective course can really be failed. Anyway, as long as you finish seven credits in the end, you can do it.

Don’t think that seven credits are simple, and half a semester is just one credit. The Middle School Normal University stipulates that a student can only take up three credits per semester, that is, seven credits, and it takes at least three semesters to complete.

Because these elective courses are faced with tens of thousands of students in the school, many people will not be able to choose the courses. Therefore, although they are called "elective courses", students may not be able to choose their favorites.

In fact, it is very simple to distinguish between "compulsory courses" and "elective courses". Just look at the final exam. Compulsory courses need to undergo regular final exams, and there will be a specific score at the end, but elective courses are not required. There is only one level and no specific score.

The Central Normal University stipulates that each department must offer such elective courses of the whole school. The specific courses offered by a department are determined by the number of teachers in different departments.

From the subject teachers of this kind of elective course, you can also clearly distinguish the strength of a school. For example, top universities like Peking University and Tsinghua University cannot offer elective courses of the whole school if they are not professor-level, but novices like Zhong Normal University and Chen Kan can offer classes, and the gap is...

Although Chen Kan's scientific research and teaching ability are not bad, this is a question of probability. The academic level of old professors and old teachers is generally higher than that of new teachers. Some famous schools pay no less attention to elective courses than professional courses, because this is an opportunity for students to expand their knowledge.

In order to let Chen Kan open this elective course, Director Wang Yuan also invested in so that Chen Kan would not have to deal with some errands, such as not being a class teacher in the future, not having to deal with some errands such as teaching evaluation.

After weighing the trade-offs, Chen Kan finally agreed. These chores don't seem to be much, but they are very scattered and take up a lot of time and energy. Chen Kan doesn't like it. Because he has this time to do these things, Chen Kan is better than attending classes, at least he can teach and educate people.

Finally, Chen Kan taught a course called "A Confused Talk about National History". He talked about China's history. There was no starting point or end point. He just gave himself a lecture. The class time was twelve weeks, one day a week, three classes a day, a total of thirty-six classes and two credits.

Of course, Chen Kan has applied for the course and needs the school’s approval. If the approval can be passed, all students in the school will have one more elective course to choose from next semester.

The Spring Festival in 2016 is in February, but the university still conducts the final exam for this semester after the New Year's Day. Because many students from university are from other places, the school is worried that students will collide with the world's largest population movement "Spring Festival travel rush", which will happen, so the winter vacation of college is generally early.

In December, we began to enter the university's unique final exam review season. At this time, most students turned into academic masters and went to the library early every day to seize the position. Even if the students don't like the class, they will concentrate on listening, hoping to leave a good impression on the teacher, and it is best to ask some "non-key".

"If students can keep their current seriousness throughout the year, then our school's grades will definitely be able to go to a higher level."

"If it's really like what my senior sister said, it's even more overwhelming. I can only teach some students who are specifically for the exam. It's better not to have such a situation!"

"Yes, but there is no way to do this. Now the exam is the best way to test, and you can't stop taking the exam." Weng Xiupin sighed.

Chen Kan laughed and said, "Senior sister, the little guy will go to elementary school in two years. What are the plans? Are you going to get the destruction of exam-oriented education?"

"What can I do? I can only accept the destruction. We are also destroyed in this way!" Weng Xiupin shrugged and said.

Now it's a break after class. Chen Kan, Weng Xiupin and several teachers chatted in the office, and accidentally talked about the final exam, which eventually led to education.

"Actually, the education in some schools is pretty good now. Your teacher Shui is also a professor at Jinling University. Can't you arrange for the affiliated primary schools of Jinling University to study?" said Teacher Chen Mei.

"Yes, let's do it for now, but I see that those primary school students have big schoolbags, it's really hard, and there are various tutoring classes."

"Senior sister, you won't start asking the little guy to attend tutoring classes, right?" Chen Kan asked.

Weng Xiupin shrugged and didn't say anything. This is very obvious. Yes, in daily discussion, they say that they reduce the burden on their children, but when you are a parent, how to say and how to do it are completely different.

It is said that he is a bystander, but when he reaches him, he is the authorities. He looks at his children's classmates going to class in various tutoring classes, can he sit and watch his children lag behind other children?

As a parent, this is very difficult, it is not a question of whether it is reasonable or not. This is the fact. Many people know that the saying "Don't let your children lose at the starting line" is very unreliable, but it is easy to know and difficult to do.

"Shut up a second silence for the little guy."
