The teacher, the Evangelist, and the teacher's basic requirements have been expressed in one sentence. But why do we need to re-discuss this issue in university computer education? I believe it is related to the contradiction between supply and demand in today's university computer education-almost every university has a computer Major, most of the indicators of University Expansion have also been given to this hot major, but computer companies face a large number of graduates but are lamenting that there is no suitable talent. In the face of this conflict, the responsibility of teachers is the first to be questioned.
As a recent graduate who has received nearly seven years of computer education, I feel that the professional requirements for teachers have never changed since ancient times: A teacher who can understand and stand at the forefront of the professional field, guide students in the learning direction, and guide students in how to learn.
No matter how the society changes, no matter how many teachers develop in computer science, they have opened their own companies. As a computer professional teacher, whether it is scientific research or project-based, his most basic task is to bring students to the door of computer science and guide students in several ways to move forward. What are the differences between these directions, how to solve the difficulties encountered in these areas of learning, and then tell the students the rest of the road they need to go, they can help each other on the road of learning, if you have any questions, contact the person who walks in front of him.
The four-year university education seems very long, and many people work very hard, but they always feel like they are in the same place. Why? I think this is the question of directionality in learning. There are many computer applications and the trend is quite new. Many people are not proficient in learning it. I think this is what no one guides them in the learning process to be broad and specialized, that is, to have a wide range of knowledge and to understand the development direction of each field; to have professional knowledge, be proficient in professional knowledge in one direction. I think that if I can get guidance from a teacher when I first enter the school, I may learn more from my undergraduate course in four years. Before teaching each course, the teacher can give advice on the development trends and cutting-edge technologies in each direction in a timely manner, so that the students can learn theoretically and practically, I think the contradiction between supply and demand in today's schools and society may be much reduced! As a student, I don't want the teacher to have a high theoretical and practical level. I just hope that the teacher can guide the students in a certain direction.
Some teachers offer practical opportunities to students in their own company, and think it is the best help for students. I personally think that computer is an engineering discipline. Although it has high practical requirements, the most important thing in college is to learn how to learn and master the learning methods, rather than gold itself. If the teacher tells the students how to use the knowledge they have learned to solve the problems they have encountered in their future studies, the guiding significance of this in future practice is definitely greater than simply letting the students compile a program using powerbuild. Of course, this does not mean that I think the practice in college is meaningless. On the contrary, I think every course design and graduation design is of great significance to students. My personal opinion is that the subject of the course design should be the latest, and it may be difficult to give full play to the potential of students. The normalization and effectiveness of graduation design are the most important. If there are conditions, it is best to send students to formal companies to participate in the development process. If there are no conditions, I think the school can follow the company's development process to allow students to exercise in graduation design.
In short, it is hoped that during the university study period, the teacher will be a guiding role in teaching and play a positive guiding role in the students' learning and future development.
