The success of thesis topic selection is the premise of successful research. Without a good topic, even tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands or millions of words are useless. This is not a successful study. Successful research must be based on successful topic selection. So, what is a successful thesis topic? In short, we should have a sense of problems in selecting topics. So what is problem consciousness?

Thesis topic selection

First, it refers to the goal orientation of research.

Successful topic selection should reveal the goal orientation of the research, that is, what kind of goal the research should achieve. The goal orientation of research reflects whether the research is valuable or not. Therefore, we can know the research status and possible development trend of this problem from the topic selection. If the topic does not reveal the goal orientation of the research, but only states a fact, it means that the research is not worth studying, or the predecessors have done more detailed research, and there is no possibility of in-depth research under the current circumstances. Don't choose this topic.

Second, it refers to the specific scope of research.

Successful theme selection should be specific, not comprehensive. That is to say, the topic should not be too big. Too big a topic will make the research unable to go deep, just like skimming the water. On the other hand, if the topic is too small, the research will be too addicted to trivial details, thus making the research lose its value and taste. In particular, some details are not representative and can't really reflect the development trend of things, but because the researchers' vision is too small, they can't find the basic laws of things' development from the details.

Third, it is necessary to question or demonstrate an academic problem.

There is no end to academic research and no end to truth. At that time, many academic viewpoints were right or right, but the time and conditions changed, so their reasons changed. Therefore, we must dare to question the topic, but the question must be well-founded and not just suspicious. On the basis of reasonable doubt, such a topic must be valuable.

In short, the topic selection is very skillful. Choosing a topic is actually the first ideological blowout after accumulation, and it is impossible to choose a topic without accumulation. Good topic selection can make the research get twice the result with half the effort, and it is also the premise of the success of the paper. After choosing a topic, there is another important problem, that is, how to express the content.
