Extended data:
After the adult college entrance examination, there are three learning forms: full-time, amateur and correspondence.
Full-time (full-time): It is a way to go to campus for full-time study after taking part in work. Its management mode is the same as that of ordinary colleges and universities, which does not occupy the rest time on Saturday and Sunday, and has normal and relatively fixed teaching classrooms and management requirements for students, and is stable in winter and summer vacations.
Amateur: Amateur study, that is, what we often say in the evening, is to use spare time to study in the evening or on weekends. The teaching place of this learning method is adult college or learning center, and the teaching method is face-to-face teaching. Students who participate in the study can also feel the atmosphere of collective class during recess. This learning method is more suitable for some working people with fixed rest time.
Correspondence: Correspondence teaching focuses on planned, organized and guided self-study and organizes systematic centralized face-to-face teaching. Students who take part in correspondence study are generally self-taught, and the face-to-face teaching time is usually around 7- 10 days on weekends or evenings, and the examination will be conducted after the start of next semester.
