02 more and more of the world`s top schools are becoming reluctant to recruit Chinese students
Although we do not know why these British universities have stopped enrolling Chinese students, it seems that more and more of the world`s top universities are becoming reluctant to recruit Chinese students, which seems to have become a new phenomenon.
Chen Zhiwu, a professor of Chinese descent at Yale University, a world-famous university, said that he and a professor of finance at a famous US university asked about recruiting students when discussing the policy of admissions for doctoral students. There was a deep news in his heart:
The professor told Chen that they might not enroll Chinese students in the field from now on.
In fact, the other school is not the only one with this idea. Professor Chen knows that in a range of other prestigious universities, including Yale, where he works, he is facing reluctance to enroll Chinese students.
Although Yale did not make a clear announcement that it would stop recruiting Chinese students altogether, the professor admitted that the world-famous school was actually consciously reducing or occasionally not enrolling Chinese students.
There is no need to repeat the fact that China`s top students learn well, and the real data are archived in the archives of these world-famous schools.
Moreover, being intelligent, diligent and hardworking is also a typical feature of the Chinese people, Chinese students, and under the influence of Chinese traditional culture, the Chinese people are humble and steady, do not like to provoke trouble, and are such a high-quality source of life. Why is it that everyone in every famous school in the world is afraid to avoid it now?
I think the following news, can be peeped in the leopard, ponder the following reasons.
03, 55000 Australian students were expelled and repatriated, with a large proportion of Chinese students.
In August of this year, the Australian media released a news story, making everyone stupid.
According to the Australian Ministry of Education, in the five-year period from 2013 to 2018, a total of 55000 international students were expelled or dropped out of school and visas were cancelled. Unexpectedly, Chinese students accounted for a large proportion of them.
Seeing this, many people want to ask, what is the difference between our children?
Let`s take a look at the reasons given by the Australian media:
1. Australia can`t stand dishonesty.
The reason why Tuao is because it retains the most simple side, so unlike the United States, Australia`s criterion for judging good students is that they value the students` character more than their grades.
Many of the 55000 students whose visas were cancelled were for the same reason-suspected of fraud.
As long as you work hard, hard work, it is totally acceptable to Australians, after all, everyone has different abilities, your correct attitude is there, the mentor will certainly find a way to help you, or even let you go.
But if your personality is not good, all day long thinking about how to speculate, then I`m sorry, Australia will give you a good lesson!
(written in Chinese by a computer professor at the National University of Australia, "I can`t tolerate student cheating").
2. Education in Australia values speeches and discussions
There is such a story, has been relished abroad.
A well-known multinational company has three interns, American, Indian, and Chinese. The performance of the three interns is, of course, quite different.
The interns in the United States only want to do their job well and leave as soon as they get to work.
On some issues, although he does not know deeply, he can still talk, say a lot of things, often can finish in a minute, he can say in five minutes.?
The other is the Chinese intern, who is also the most hard-working one of the three. He works the most and does the best, but he doesn`t like to talk.
The third is an Indian intern, whose job is not as good as that of a Chinese intern. In spite of his heavy curry accent, he was also the one of the three who liked to ask questions and express his thoughts the most.
At the end of the internship, it was the Chinese who learned the most solid knowledge, and the last thing everyone remembered was the Indians.
Why tell this story, because this is the case in the Australian classroom. Australian universities focus more on Presentation and Discussion than on expertise.
This makes it difficult for many Chinese students, I do exercises more than anyone else, but you let me speak on stage?
So many Chinese children, having classes in Australia, are eating Coptis every day-both dumb and bitter.
I can only look at my Indian classmates and speak with my eyes fluttering.
As a result, Australian universities are increasingly favoring Indian students, while ignoring Chinese students. After all, what they appreciate is not only mathematical physics and chemistry, but also humanities and social sciences. When judging talents, they do not just look at their hard skills. Also depends on his expression ability, the communication ability, depends on whether he is a funny person.
3. Australian Education attaches importance to "Cooperation"
Among the reasons for the cancellation of 55000 student visas, there is also a very common reason-personality.
This reason is a bit abstract, but the Australian media explains that your character is good or bad, is that you can get along well with other people, get along well, and have a strong interpersonal relationship.
This is one of the abilities that Australian universities value.
Why? Because when you come to Australia on your first day, you hear a word-Mate.
Partnership, mutual assistance, and Team work teamwork have been firmly rooted in Australian society and in Australian universities.
Every time a group assignment in college, you don`t finish your own part of it, it`s easy to finish. What you need to do is to communicate and be friendly with everyone on the team.
These things are like having a deep connection to culture and history. Australian children have been bathed in this environment since childhood and naturally know how to use them.
But for the newly arrived Chinese students, if they don`t understand the culture of Australia, they can`t adapt to it, and the gap will come out.
04 in the end, it`s a different cognitive model.
Although this time eight universities in the UK do not specify the reasons for not enrolling Chinese students, we can also guess one or two out of the feedback from Australian universities.
Although the case does not represent the whole group of Chinese students is not good, but we should know that individual dishonesty, do not abide by the rules, put in the international campus, it will be easy to be enlarged, and even affect the image of a group.
In addition, Yale`s professor Chen Zhiwu has previously revealed a reason for his exposure to a large number of Chinese students in the course of teaching by the Chinese-American professor.
At first, the scores of the students who had been selected by thousands of students were not said. In the course of the PhD essay study, although the overall performance was not outstanding, the overall level of performance was also good.
But when you graduate from school, when you find a job, the problem comes out.
Take the vocational education post, for example, the Chinese professor hopes that the talents he has trained will be able to pass the essence of education to more people through what he has learned and heard. However, his Chinese student has such a good degree certificate. But there is no way to find a first-rate university for vocational education.
In 2015, for example, many of the top 30 finance doctoral students in the prestigious school came from China.
In the end, however, the total number of applicants for vocational education positions in the top 15 financial departments in the United States was 0. 4%.
Such a result, let these first-class schools, feel surprised, disappointed.
These Chinese doctoral students, who graduated from the world`s leading financial institutions, have obtained the highest quality learning resources, and the professors have invested a great deal of effort in training them.
However, the recruitment results show that their competitiveness in the workplace is not as well-equipped as some of the slightly-equipped college graduates. The huge effort didn`t pay off, which hurt the world`s most famous schools as well.
In all these reasons, it is not difficult to understand the decision of eight schools in Britain. In fact, many Chinese students can not only start with foreign language, but also have a very good professional literacy, but they are actually restricted by the face of different societies, different educational systems, cognitive model adjustment.
It is hoped that this time by the collective "blacklist" of British universities, we will realize that in today`s highly integrated world economy, the next generation of China will truly stand out from the rest of the world in the international competition in the future. The idea of education, the way it is taught, must be change, not just "obedient" robots.
After all, "the education provided by a country to its young people can show us the future of the country."-Gustav Le Pen
