Let's start with the school year paper. Academic paper is an academic paper that colleges and universities require students to complete every academic year, and it is a primary form of academic paper. Its purpose is to guide students to learn to conduct scientific research on the professional knowledge they have learned in a school year. Write an article every academic year to gradually cultivate students' scientific research ability and lay the foundation for writing graduation thesis in the future. Writing academic papers should be carried out under the guidance of a tutor.
In some schools, the implementation of each major is different. This is required by the Academic Degrees Ordinance. The Ministry of Education stipulates that academic year papers should be written first. After gradually accumulating experience, it won't be too difficult to write a graduation thesis when you graduate. However, many schools do not regard term papers as a way or tool to cultivate students' scientific research ability. Then near graduation, students still don't know how to write their graduation thesis. Of course, there are still quite a few institutions of higher learning, especially key institutions, which attach great importance to the writing of academic thesis, because only by training the writing of academic thesis can we logically transition to the writing of graduation thesis. From the teaching of each course to the final exam, in a sense, it is actually training thesis writing for a semester or a school year. Because all teachers give you a little knowledge problem from the perspective of their own courses, and then give you a discussion problem. Then for essay questions, it should be said that experienced teachers can make good use of essay questions to train students to write papers. Some schools do this, but some schools are not on the agenda. Or does every teacher specifically ask students to do homework once, without emphasizing their studies?
The former Chinese Department of Beijing Normal University, now the College of Liberal Arts requires students to train and write academic papers from the second year of college, and hold paper competitions on special days such as May 4 or July 1 day,1February 29 to train students in paper writing. Then every school year, every teacher has the responsibility to train students to write academic papers and lay the foundation for future graduation papers. Then this is a concept and related situation.
thesis
The following is the graduation thesis. What is a graduation thesis? Graduation thesis is a summative academic thesis independently completed by recent college graduates. Here are a few points that need everyone's attention: first, fresh graduates; The second is to complete it independently, of course, under the guidance of the teacher; The third is summative. The so-called summative, that is, the purpose of the topic in the future, such as the Chinese department, may choose Chinese or literature. Language, you may prefer ancient Chinese, or modern Chinese, or applied linguistics. In literature, you may like classical literature, or modern literature, or contemporary literature and foreign literature. Foreign literature, you may like eastern Europe or western Europe, or Japan. Generally speaking, the professional point is stronger. Why is it summative? Although the topic you choose may be the most interesting topic you have studied in the past four years, you need to mobilize all kinds of basic knowledge to really write a decent and qualified graduation thesis. So we can check the level of basic knowledge, basic theory and basic skills you have learned in four or three and a half years through your graduation thesis. Therefore, in this sense, the graduation thesis is summative.
So it's a paper, which means it's different from the usual feeling of reading. Write down your own perceptual knowledge. The graduation thesis is academic. The so-called academic, that is, when you put forward your own point of view, you must have your own sufficient reasons to prove it, so that your argument can stand. Not only can we gain a firm foothold, but we also require your theory to make a certain contribution to society or your discipline.
Why do students have to write graduation thesis before graduation? The main purpose is to let students sum up their learning achievements in the past four years. The school examines students' graduation thesis to see how they can comprehensively apply what they have learned to solve practical problems. One is the comprehensive application of learned knowledge, and the other is the ability to solve practical problems, which are two main points. So don't underestimate the graduation thesis, just choose a topic and write it. After you really start writing, you will feel that through the writing of this paper, you have combed everything you have learned, which is a good exercise. As long as he is a student who writes a thesis carefully, his final experience is that if I didn't write this thesis, I might not even know how much knowledge I have mastered, and sometimes I take a closed-book exam by reciting. But this paper is open and doesn't need to be recited. Mainly depends on your ability to choose a topic, whether you can combine social practice and choose a topic that society needs. Depends on your social sensitivity. This is also an investigation. From the perspective of topic selection, this is an investigation of ability, whether this paper has value, what kind of value, how profound and novel it is.
When you choose a topic, it is not so simple to really form a paper. Some students said that I could finish my graduation thesis in a flash. Generally speaking, it takes me nearly a semester to write my graduation thesis. From our experience, in the last semester of grade four, we have assigned students to various tutors, and the tutors communicate with the students they tutor. Students choose a topic, and the tutor will study it to see if it is suitable. Ask the students to write an outline if appropriate. Don't start writing until the outline is approved by the tutor. In terms of time, it is nearly a semester. Of course, there are also some schools that may just make a surprise attack and let students finish it in the last month or two. So what kind of level is such a paper? We can make a comparison. Of course, we don't mean long-term good, short-term bad. But then again, we say that writing a paper needs to collect a lot of information to think about. Whether there is enough time still has an impact on the quality of the paper. This is my graduation thesis, mainly because the school can examine students' comprehensive ability to use knowledge and solve practical problems through graduation thesis. Answering big questions in exams is not scientific research. That is, you face a course and see how you learn. An experienced teacher is bound to come up with an essay question, that is, to examine students' problem-solving ability in the face of the course being taught. So graduation thesis is very important for students.
The graduation thesis should be selected according to the requirements of students' majors and training under the guidance of tutors. Some students said that I didn't know how to choose a topic. Then I said that after I finished my class today, you should know how to choose a topic. What kind of topic should I choose for my thesis? Then communicate with your tutor when you are uncertain. Why do you need a mentor? The purpose of having a tutor is to further cultivate students' scientific research ability on this big topic. The completion of graduation thesis is also approved by the tutor. According to my own experience, the tutor thinks that your paper is finished, that is, it is finalized. After the manuscript is finalized, the tutor will invite several teachers to form a thesis defense team, and then let the students defend their own papers. In other words, after reading your paper, all the teachers in the defense group will ask relevant questions from the paper, and you should make realistic answers to the questions raised by the judges. One is to write a paper in writing, and the other is to reply after the paper is completed. These two processes are combined, and finally the defense group grades the students' papers. Then after this process is over, we will say that this graduation thesis has been written. Graduation thesis is now divided into three grades, one is undergraduate thesis, the other is graduate thesis and the other is doctoral thesis. Then the requirements of these three levels of graduation thesis are different.
