My university: The ideal in the 1980s

I am a university I studied in 1980. Now, there are some sayings of "nostalgia" in the society. I can understand this. Because in the 1980s, it was indeed an era of passion. It was a era full of feelings, tolerance, and free. I want to use "Tao Li Chunfeng A glass of wine" to make a summary of the 1980s of my college period: at that time the "Cultural Revolution" had ended, and "practice is the only criterion for testing truth". ; Among people's feelings, my country's development has infinite future development and bright prospects; it has also ushered in spring in politics.

Shi Daning during college

The young people at that time liked to read some philosophy and talk about literature. At that time, although I was not old, I would read it. For example, the existentialism in Western philosophy, although I did not read it very well, there were still some gains. I am more obsessed with literature. I studied physics at that time, but every Wednesday afternoon must be watching various magazines and some excellent novels in the reading room of the library. At that time, the famous novels were very popular, and went to the library to borrow a long team. I remember once I wanted to borrow Qian Zhongshu's "Siege" and waited for nearly half a year before borrowing it. There is also Jin Yong's novel. I remember that Jin Yong's first novel was "Book Sword Enemies". In order to grab time, I often stood at the door of the collective toilet in the dormitory. I watched it all night under the light and read it in one breath. These novels provide spiritual food for me to understand and understand the society and form my own outlook on life.

I will also tell young people now: After reading, you have to read some contemporary literature, which can best reflect the characteristics of the times.

In the 1980s, another thing that made me remember is that the women's volleyball team won the World Cup. At that time, the spirit of the women's volleyball team and the spirit of revitalizing China at that time gave me a lot of motivation. Therefore, at that time, we all had a kind of pride, ambition, and a spirit: just to read talents, to dedicate society and contribute to the motherland. Although the conditions for reading at that time were very difficult, the enthusiasm of reading and the pursuit of their hearts were high.

At that time, many young people used scientists as idols, and so did I do it myself. Since I learned physics, I also hope that I can report to the motherland one day. Therefore, during college, I was very diligent and my academic performance was good. When I was in the fourth grade of college, I made a graduation design with a certain difficulty. Because of the use of calculus geometric knowledge that I have not studied during college, it is challenging, but it is encouraged by the teacher. In the end, this study has achieved results, and published in the Journal of Suzhou University when I graduated -published a paper during university, which was quite proud in 1984. Later, the work was also written by the teacher of Peking University into the book "Special Research on Electromagnetic Studies". Even if you look at it now, if I want to choose 10 representative works in the nearly 200 papers I published, I will still choose this article first: because I think this is the most I made when I was young A sense of accomplishment.

This dare to work hard to realize the ideal of life and the essence of the spirit of life has continued on myself. In the long -term schooling career of the master's degree, doctoral degree, and studying abroad, my ambition has always been a teacher to be a "good teacher". This has both my personal feelings and a sense of social mission. First of all, I think that when a teacher needs to continue to accept new knowledge, you must continue to learn, and this will give me a continuous motivation. Secondly, I think I should pass the knowledge and spirit I learned to the young next generation, and education is a happy life experience that influence between teachers and students. Third, when a teacher can live with young people, I can feel my value and the value of life in the process of growing with young people.

In addition, I want to talk about my study abroad experience, because studying abroad has brought me a lot of gains. Except for a short time abroad experience, I have worked more than half a year abroad. These study abroad experiences have broaden my horizons and provides a wider space for my future development. In the 1990s, there were not many domestic universities that could be blended with liberal arts and sciences. The curriculums of science students and liberal arts students were very different, and they were even clear. But in a visit, I saw the research results of scientific and artistic integration, which made me realize that science students must study science students courses, and liberal arts students must take the course of science students. Only in this way can students not only explore nature, understand nature, but also understand the beauty of science and art, and can improve their imagination, curiosity and critical thinking. So after returning to China, I made up my mind to do this. Later, through a series of efforts, the "physical and art" innovative courses were successfully opened, and textbooks were also published. It was highly affirmed by experts such as Li Zhengdao and Uncle Yang, and it had a demonstration in the industry.

Universities should pay more attention to the cultivation of emotional attitudes and value orientation

Zhu Xi said that the university is the "learning of adults." The study of university lies in "Tao". I told my classmates that the so -called "Tao" refers to major issues such as "the university must pursue the ontology of the universe and the realm of life". Therefore, university education must give people confidence, hope to give people, and give people strength. With a good university education, a nation has hope. Universities are the most critical places to turn natural people into society, that is, children who can adapt to and integrate into modern social life. Therefore, young people should cherish their college time, strive to learn while growing insights, cultivating morals, and striving to exercise themselves into social pioneers with knowledge, culture, ability, and emotional. In my opinion, a generation has the characteristics of a generation. We should not use our generation of ideas to criticize contemporary young people with too much. On the contrary, we should respect the choice of young people more and listen to their more. sound. Contemporary youth's knowledge, learning methods, knowledge level, horizontal, innovative and entrepreneurial consciousness, and the sense of responsibility of pursuing equality and independence, including the ability to choose and plan lifestyle, all surpass our generation. We must be good at educating and guiding them to help them better apply their accumulated knowledge, so that they can go better in real social life. Therefore, I think that universities must not only cultivate college students' knowledge and skills, but also pay attention to the process and methods, but also pay attention to the cultivation of the emotional attitude and value orientation of college students. Essence

In the end, I gave 16 words to young friends: "Awe is in nature, thank the society, cherish my family, and treat myself well."
