The following principles should be followed in selecting a topic: First, choose a question with scientific value. Including five aspects: first, we should choose the topics that need to be solved urgently. Generally speaking, there are always some problems that need to be solved urgently in various disciplines. Scientific research should first pay attention to these urgent problems, so as to reduce the blindness of topic selection. In the fields of international relations, economy, law, medicine, agriculture and environmental protection, it can be said that the topics to be solved urgently are still outstanding. In other words, students in these subjects should first focus on the problems that need to be solved urgently when choosing topics. Like the field of environmental protection, what problems need to be solved urgently? What should we pay attention to in environmental protection in this region and this industry? Let's go back to the education front. Not long ago, I participated in the thesis defense of five or six masters of education. I think their topics are all good. One is to choose a question about the textbook. At present, all kinds of teaching materials emerge one after another. If the teaching materials are well compiled, it will be conducive to educational reform, which is the basis of teaching. If the teaching materials are unscientific, teachers will spend a lot of money in the process of teaching reform, but the effect will be very small. So many masters choose textbooks. There are also some masters who choose teaching methods. With the change of teaching materials, teaching methods should be improved. I'm not sure whether the students in our online education college have teachers involved in this work. If so, you may wish to choose some topics you have experienced in combination with your own practice. For example, a teacher wrote "Teaching Experience of Comprehensive Learning in New Textbooks", and then put forward five main points of Chinese lesson preparation for the new textbooks. From the teaching point of view, there is another topic similar to this, "Evaluation and Exploration of Improving Students' Chinese Literacy", which puts forward the question of how to evaluate it. Evaluation itself is very important, and proper and scientific evaluation is conducive to improving students' Chinese literacy. I think these problems need to be studied.
As a Chinese major, it is not so urgent compared with economics, law and other majors. Of course, it is not without problems to be solved urgently, but there is still a certain distance from social contact. Therefore, as a student in China, the following principles can be followed in choosing a topic: First, choose the problems that need to be solved urgently. One of my books, Reading Appreciation Review, contains such a model essay, the rationale of Chinese character configuration and the division of modern Chinese character components. This subject is an urgent problem to be solved. Because in this field, everyone is exploring, and exploration itself is not a bad thing, but it is inconclusive to some extent. The more you explore, the more chaotic it is. Under such circumstances, as an authority, we must think seriously. The public says it's right, and the old woman says it's right, but on the whole, it makes sense after all. This article is based on my own thinking, sorting out the chaos. Then I put forward my own unique opinion. There is also an article called "Scientific Exploration of Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language" by Wang Kuijin. What is the definition of teaching Chinese as a foreign language? If this definition is not scientifically defined, there will be many problems in teaching Chinese as a foreign language. In this case, the author talks about his own views from the aspects of teaching, psychology and applied linguistics. After thinking about several subjects, he thought about how to position the teaching of Chinese as a foreign language. From what has been said above, we want to make it clear that China is not without problems that need to be solved urgently. Look at your usual thinking and observation of some problems in your professional field. Generally speaking, our undergraduate students have little experience and practical experience, so it is difficult to choose a topic in this respect. But there is such a principle in principle. Then you can do better. If you can't do it, then we can cut in from another angle.
Second, we should choose new discoveries and new creative topics in the field of science.
The second principle of choosing a topic is to choose a newly discovered and created topic in the scientific field. Every new discovery and creation will make the subject field enter a new stage and take a big step forward. So this kind of topic is very important and worth choosing and studying. Some new discoveries and innovations in disciplines, such as several undergraduate papers we just mentioned, such as Chinese and Japanese classical poetry and time, are not urgent problems to be solved. You don't have to write today or a few years later. But there are new discoveries and new perspectives. As a student of Chinese Department, you can give full play to your special skills in this respect. A student wrote the sublimation of personality consciousness —— On the artistic features of Yu's prose from the perspective of personality. Another student commented on Bi Shumin. Reflection and exploration start with the aesthetic characteristics of Bi Shumin's art and analyze Bi Shumin's death appointment from the perspective of aesthetic poetics. These are all new angles and problems. There are also Demolition of Seven Pagodas —— A Study on the Language of New Criticism Poetry, From Peony Pavilion to Second Dream —— An Analysis of the Inheritance and Development of Tang Xianzu's Thought from 1598 to 160 1. These students find their own interesting topics in the process of learning. In the field of scientific research, he devoted himself to studying problems that others did not or rarely involved. There is also "everything except inner peace-a social survey of the psychological state of worshippers in Miaofeng Mountain". This is an investigation report, not necessarily an urgent problem, but it has certain reference function to sociology.
Third, choose a topic that can fill the blank.
The third principle is to choose a topic that can fill in the blanks. If scientific development is unbalanced, so will scientific research. As far as science is concerned, research is often unbalanced. Starting from the needs of scientific research and the overall situation of scientific development, all the gaps that are beneficial to social development and scientific development can be the objects of our topic selection, and we can study them to fill this gap. This may provide more opportunities in the fields of natural science and social science. This is somewhat similar to an urgent problem. The problems that need to be solved urgently may be platitudes or blank, and we need to study and explore them quickly. What is the cause of SARS now? If it can be studied, it will fill a gap in epidemiology. At the same time, this is also an urgent problem. To speed up the research, of course, we must follow the laws of actual research, and we must not violate the objective laws just because we want speed. I think it is more difficult for students of Chinese department. Because it takes experience to fill in the blanks. Not only knowledge, but also a lot of rich experience. Therefore, it is enough for you to know the principle of selecting the topic of this paper. When you become a master's or doctor's degree in the future and do research to fill in the gaps, you may not be at a loss. This is the third topic selection principle.
Fourth, correct the unscientific concepts in the general theory.
The fourth topic selection principle is to correct the unscientific concepts in the general theory. This situation is very common in the field of literature. For example, classical literature seems to have been thoroughly studied, and you have nothing to study. In fact, if you think about it carefully, the research of later generations has its own foothold and limitations. You can see what kind of topics you can study in this crevice. In my reading appreciation comments, Mr. Guo Yuheng's On Ouyang Xiu was included. This article is to correct the general statement. The previous view has been recognized by everyone: Ouyang Xiu is a conservative, which is the final conclusion. Mr. Guo specializes in the history of ancient prose, and after in-depth and meticulous research in the process of studying the history of prose, he found that such a view was too unfair to Ouyang Xiu. He thinks that Ouyang Xiu is an open and aboveboard person who dares to say and scold, and is worthy of being an open scholar. He read through all the collected works and monographs of Ouyang Xiu, and found that Ouyang Xiu was not only a great writer who created a generation of ethos and influenced several generations, but also had outstanding achievements in poetry and prose, not only had unique views on the subset of classics and history, but also was a courageous and unyielding politician. After in-depth and meticulous research, Mr. Guo found that he is such a person. So he said that my views may be different from those of Ouyang Xiu in recent years. Because some writers who commented on the Northern Song Dynasty at the same time often took the attitude towards Wang Anshi's political reform as the criterion. At that time, everyone thought that Ouyang Xiu opposed Wang Anshi's political reform and immediately labeled Ouyang Xiu a conservative. Mr. Guo believes that this should not be the case, which has become a common view. Through this article, he set things right and put forward that he is not a conservative but a reformer. The point of view is clear. The second point of view is that Ouyang Xiu "takes people by virtue and can write articles", which means that Ouyang Xiu is not only a politician, but also a good writer. This is evaluated from a literary point of view. The third angle is Ouyang Xiu's "Make the past serve the present". The fourth angle is "being a poet in my spare time". Said Ouyang Xiu was a great poet. After Mr. Guo's article came out, no one raised any objection, indicating that Mr. Guo's scientific evaluation was recognized. Then this is what we call the "revised general theory".
Fifth, make a supplement to the above as the goal of my topic selection.
Let's talk about the principle of the fifth topic first, which is to supplement the last one as our goal. What do you mean by "pre-talk"? It means that predecessors have studied, verified and reached a conclusion, but after your research, you feel that it is not perfect and complete enough. You should supplement it to make it more scientific and perfect. This principle, as long as you understand it, is a bit difficult for undergraduates. We should keep this principle in mind and consider it when our knowledge and experience improve in the future. The five principles we mentioned above are all objective. When we really want to choose a topic, we should consider objectivity and subjectivity together. You may think a topic is particularly good and you are particularly willing to study it. Especially the first principle is very important. If this problem is solved early, this subject may be of great value and make a certain contribution. Personally, to really write a good paper, two aspects should be considered together. Consider the needs of society for you, so it is easy for your paper to have social effects, even economic effects. The second aspect of the third question is to consider subjectivity and choose a topic that is conducive to your own development. The principle of considering scientific value is the five principles mentioned above. But it is not enough to consider the topic only from the objective needs. Every graduate should consider his own subjective conditions and see if he has a strong interest (attention) in the topic and whether he can give full play to his professional expertise. In addition, we should consider whether the difficulty of the topic is suitable for our research ability and whether the conditions for collecting and possessing materials are sufficient. In addition, we should also consider whether we can get the guidance of the tutor and whether we have enough time to study the topic. This is very important. At present, ordinary schools give students more than half a year to choose topics and write papers. The combination of these two aspects is the best way to choose the topic.
