How can people realize their potential? Why can people fulfill their will, talent, and ideals at Harvard? It is hard to hear the voice of a Harvard student's restaurant. Every student sat down with PISA cola, often reading books or taking notes while eating. I have never seen any students eat or read, or even chat. I feel that Harvard is just a library that can eat. It is an alternative library other than 100 authentic libraries in Harvard. In Harvard Hospital, the same silence, no matter how many people are waiting for a visit, no one speaks, and no one reads or records. The hospital is still an extension of the Library. As a result, Harvard won 33 Nobel Prize winners. Harvard has seven American presidents. On the Harvard campus, there were no servers, no makeup, and no more swaying. I had to take a quick step and write down the chapter of my life. Harvard is not a myth. Harvard is just a proof of human will, spirit, ambition, and ideal.
Xie Juan, the producer of CCTV's world famous university, once brought a video crew to Harvard University for an interview. She told our reporter that when we arrived at Harvard University, we were surprised that the whole campus was brightly lit and it was a non-overnight city. There are still many students reading in the restaurant, library, and classroom. That strong learning atmosphere immediately infected us. At Harvard, students do not study day or night. At that time, I realized that in the United States, at a prestigious university such as Harvard, the pressure on students was great. At Harvard, sleeping people can be seen everywhere, and even people go to sleep on the benches in the dining room. It is not uncommon for people to come and eat. Because they know that these people are too tired to fall asleep. At Harvard, the most common thing we see is that students read books while eating their bread. In an interview with Harvard, what impressed me most was that Harvard students had learned too hard, but they were obviously happy. What makes Harvard students happy? My experience is that they are very interested in the fields they have learned. There is also a sense of mission for Harvard students to take important responsibilities in the future. From these students, you can feel that the energy of their lives has been stimulated here.
Xie Juan said that a girl from Peking University at Harvard told me that undergraduate students at Harvard should take at least four courses each semester and eight courses a year, within four years, I have completed 32 courses and passed the examination before graduation. Generally, undergraduates are required to complete their core courses in the first two years after they enter the primary courses. Only the smartest talented students can finish these 32 courses in two or three years. The average students are too dizzy to cope with four courses, because the professors speak fast in the classroom, no matter whether you can understand it or not, and leave a lot of reading materials in the course, you can't finish your homework.
The girl at Peking University said that my weekly reading volume here is my one-year reading volume at Peking University. In addition, my work volume at Harvard is demanding. She said that we will spend a lot of time reading books after class, preview the case. Each lesson requires a lot of preparation in advance, and the preparation is complete before the class, in order to communicate with others in the class, contribute your personal thoughts, in order to learn with everyone, otherwise, you cannot integrate into the classroom. When every student has invested time to prepare carefully, they can quickly promote the process of classroom discussion. If you didn't read so many books before, you cannot participate in class discussions.
Xie Juan said that the learning pressure of Harvard students also comes from the school's elimination mechanism. On average, about 20% of Harvard students leave or drop out of school every year because they fail or fail to take less than their credits. In addition, the evaluation of 20% of the students who are eliminated is not completed at the end of the semester, each class must record the score of the speech, accounting for 50% of the total score on average. This requires the students to work hard and relax.
At Harvard, not only are students under pressure, but teachers are under pressure. In a Harvard class, teachers are required to talk about new things. Each year, the instructor's lecture content must keep up with the latest developments in science. Therefore, Harvard teachers must be at the forefront of scientific research. Harvard believes that the professor should first be a scholar, be able to enjoy the challenge and innovation, and be able to communicate with others in a persuasive manner.
When we interviewed Professor Qiu chengtong, a lifelong professor at Harvard University, he said: Chinese college students are too relaxed in college life. We always say that Chinese children suffer a lot for the college entrance examination. In fact, in some famous middle schools in the United States, high school learning is also very bitter. When my children go to middle school, they often learn midnight. In the United States, as we grow older, we have to learn more. It is the hardest thing in college, and all the elite education must be hard-working. Chinese children suddenly relaxed when they arrived at the university. The four years of relaxation happened to be the most diligent 4 years for American college students and the four years of accumulation of energy. Therefore, the United States has always been the world's largest high-tech talent. Xie Juan said, I share the same feelings. We have also interviewed some key universities in China, but it is difficult to feel the learning atmosphere and inquiry atmosphere like Harvard. Xie Juan said with great emotion that when you arrive at Harvard, you will know that the real elites are not geniuses, and they all need to make more efforts.
Speaking of the comparison between Chinese and American college students, Xie Juan said, I have two feelings: first, our students lack the spirit of hardship. Our parents and students think that the college entrance examination is the hardest. The cold window we talk about is often passive and utilitarian. Instead of having a strong interest in it. After passing the college entrance examination, many college students began to comfortably wait for graduation on the university campus: if they want to escape from class, they will not be able to escape. Even some parents instill this idea in their children from an early age, so that they can think that all their learning is for the college entrance examination. As a result, the college entrance examination is over and learning is no longer important. What we can't imagine is how hard a university in the United States, especially an Elite University, has to do. At Harvard, conquer learning is the slogan of everyone. To become more powerful, you need to learn more. For this reason, there are more and more intense Harvard courses. The objective is to help students improve their critical thinking ability and imagination, learn to discover and identify facts and truth, adhere to the rigorous analysis of things, and be able to understand realistic and moral problems rationally and historically. In addition, it takes a long time to learn more than enough perseverance.
When American college students accumulate energy with a strong interest, they step into the social work to prepare. As a Chinese college student, I feel relieved that I can finally have a good rest. Chinese-style education has forced students to "work too hard" before the College Entrance Examination. At the stage of this reserve capacity, they not only did not save energy, but consumed a lot of this energy. Miss Lu told our reporter that Chinese students were left behind by American students in college. The root cause is our basic education. American primary school is a ghost of knowledge. It strictly limits the amount of knowledge that children can get. A month only allows children to get one piece of knowledge. Every time they get a piece of knowledge, they need to make a lot of effort and effort; in this process, hands-on, thinking, and perception are more important than knowledge itself. Children always have a desire for knowledge. In China, primary education is a greedy ghost who treats knowledge as free gold jewelry. Chinese educators do not know the relationship between knowledge and wisdom. They always give their children more and more knowledge. The cleverness of American education lies in: First let the children perceive, think, and then get knowledge. At this time, knowledge becomes wise. Because at the beginning, knowledge is very simple, it is easy to gain insights, and knowledge becomes intelligent. Wisdom is what we often call creativity. There are three stages of learning: perceptual knowledge-perception-Knowledge. Knowledge is the highest stage of learning. American education allows children to get knowledge after three stages. Chinese education allows children to get knowledge through perceptual knowledge or directly. One month of education in the United States is equivalent to one day of education in China. The difference is 29 days. These 29 days are the time of sentiment. American education makes children feel more intelligent than Chinese education. American students produce one more thing than Chinese students: innovation ability. In high school, American schools cultivate the habit of autonomous learning. Compared with China, Chinese high school students use cramming to learn, making students accustomed to dependency. The gap in ability and habits allows Chinese students and American students to choose different lifestyles and attitudes in college. Harvard students say that studying at Harvard is intense, having little sleep, and having the feeling of being in purgatory is a great challenge to Will. However, if you get past it, you will be able to overcome any major difficulties in the future. Chinese college students believe that they can finally get rid of the limitations and do what they want. As a result, most of the time is spent on things other than learning. We are out of stock at the time of learning. This is doomed. Our college students are getting farther and farther away.
Many scholars use the pyramid to describe the learning ability of Chinese and American students. The difference is that Chinese children's learning ability is a positive pyramid, and the larger the age, the smaller the learning space. American students learn from the inverted pyramid. They learn the ability of continuous learning. The motivation of Chinese students, as well as the strict education system of universities, make them feel that going to college is very easy. From itself to the outside, they do not have the power to urge them to learn, so relaxation has become a common situation. They are all asking for their leisure time deducted from the past 12 years and enjoying their leisure. Chinese students have been studying hard for 12 years and are at leisure in college. American students have been "casual" for 12 years. They have been studying hard and hard at university. This is the most valuable golden learning stage before we move towards society. In the past four years, they have made a qualitative leap in improving their abilities and emotional intelligence.
At Harvard, Professors often remind students of time management. On the road of life, you stop, but someone is desperately trying to get on the road. Maybe when you stand, he is still chasing forward behind you, but when you look back, you can no longer see him, because, he is already in front of you and needs you to catch up with him. Therefore, you cannot stop or go forward. Success and comfort cannot have both sides. If you choose one, you must give up another ending. If you do not work hard today, tomorrow will surely suffer. Harvard told its students: "the pains of learning are temporary, and the pains of not learning are lifelong ." Our college students are tasting this kind of pain, and our nation is paying for it.
Harvard graduates have a tradition of donating to Harvard. 1/3 of Harvard's funds come from donations. Many students are also from Harvard alumni. A generation of Harvard people entered the upper class of society and gave their wealth back to their alma mater, Harvard. Annual donations are an important part of Harvard's income.
Giving is often mutual. Whether there is Harvard or Harvard first, the question is unclear, either as a chicken or an egg. Or let Harvard tell you.
Harvard has no tall buildings, but only the red brick walls of New England. Even the Nobel Prize winners have an unremarkable parking space on campus. After all, Harvard has 100 libraries, especially people like libraries, or a person is a library. Harvard or Harvard do not need any packaging.
Some people say that Shi Huachi is a big Ru from Harvard who is similar to the East. When he was 82 years old after a cancer operation, he still went to work in the office on time every morning, even if he sometimes fell down. The two clothes hangers in his office were made of wires.
A professor said to the students that you can only sleep for two hours a day after learning this course. Students thought, so I had no time to sleep when I took four courses, so I had to stick to my sleep time.
Harvard doctoral students may have to submit a big book every three days, hundreds of pages each, and read the report. Harvard bridge is Boston, former Head of the Department of Anthropology Zhang guangzhi was a doctor at Harvard in those years, did not go over the bridge and did not go to Boston.
A Harvard student or professor is not an honor, but a proof.
What kind of willpower does a person have, and what kind of potential does a person have?
Harvard tells you.
Harvard is a symbol of the highest wisdom and the highest school.
Why can people fulfill their will, talent, and ideals at Harvard?
Harvard tells you.
Looking at Harvard China, you know what is missing?
As a world-famous University, Harvard University has trained many celebrities, including 33 Nobel Prize winners, 7 American presidents, and professional elites from all walks of life. What makes Harvard the cradle of elites? What kind of spirit and philosophy did Harvard students accept? These questions attract thousands of people to explore their answers.
Harvard often tells students that if you want to be comfortable and get the comments you deserve at any time and on any occasions after entering the society, during your study at Harvard, there is no time to bask in the sun. A widely-spread motto in Harvard is "learning, learning, and learning after busy autumn!
