Seokyo University.

Xiao Yuanshan put down his phone and sighed slightly.

He himself is a researcher of music education, and has been committed to the promotion and popularization of basic music education over the years.

Because young people now like to be active on the Internet, he himself also learned to post on Weibo on the Internet with his students. Usually, I will update my perception and experience of music, and promote the power of music to everyone.

Today, when he heard several of his doctoral students talking about someone posting on the Internet that he had failed the school's professional course exam because he had listened to an off-campus music course, he suddenly had some insights.

To be honest, Xiao Yuanshan himself agrees with the setting of off-campus classrooms.

Now that the country is universalizing education and advocating learning for all, the classroom should not be limited to schools. Only by invigorating the non-governmental classrooms and even the academic atmosphere can we truly achieve the atmosphere of learning for all.

However, there are good and bad things about this matter, and the bad part is that in recent years, some private institutions have actually gone to make money in the name of off-campus classes, and the content produced is also uneven.

Therefore, his first thought is to remind students to keep their eyes open, especially from the content, to screen well, rather than just looking at what is hot.

Then, in response to the fact that the students failed the course this time, Xiao Yuanshan had a few opinions.

First, for students, they should have a sense of reverence for knowledge, and they must clearly distinguish what is "official history" and what is "wild history". At least, in universities now, the knowledge points in textbooks can be regarded as a kind of benchmark.

Second, for teachers, they should also have a sense of reverence for knowledge, academics are not dead, knowledge is not dead, especially in the humanities, but also to have the spirit of discussion and inspiration. For different views on knowledge points, as long as they are not malicious plagiarism or nonsense, there is still room for discussion.

Judging from the message posted by the student on the Internet, in fact, he really did not scribble maliciously, in this case, at least give the student a chance to defend and discuss, and then give points as appropriate. At least, it's still inappropriate to give a direct course.

Third, for those off-campus classes in society, we also need to have a sense of reverence for knowledge. This is based on the conscience of the knowledge provider.

That's why he posted those two sentences on his Weibo.

The original intention was to remind.

But he didn't know that now, the interpretation of public opinion on the Internet is not at all according to what he thinks.

For the live classical music class introduced by the student, Xiao Yuanshan was actually very interested in it.

Classical music has always been the least favorite of young people, even graduate students and doctoral students who specialize in this in universities have a headache from time to time. Mainly, it's still too boring.

And according to what the student said, the young man in this live class was actually very interesting!

If it's true, it's a bit of a rarity!

Such young people, even if there are discrepancies in the knowledge they speak, should not be beaten to death with a stick. Even, find a way to guide it, maybe you can guide a good seedling.

Originally, Xiao Yuanshan wanted to take a look at the video in the live broadcast room mentioned on the Internet to understand what the situation was.

However, in the afternoon, I happened to have the final exam paper to be corrected. So, I'm going to put this matter aside for the time being.

Flip through the stack of exam papers on the table.

This is the final exam paper of the first-year music history foundation course at the Faculty of Arts at Seokyo University.

Although he is 80 years old, Xiao Yuanshan still personally corrects the test papers of first-year students in the college every year.

He himself is engaged in art popularization and music popularization research, so he naturally wants to know more about the mastery of music basics by students every year.

Through these, it is fed back to the National Textbook Editorial Board.

Whether it is primary and secondary schools or colleges and universities, the cultivation of aesthetic concepts and abilities in quality education is very important. This is also what he has been fighting for.

The questions on the test paper are all subjective, and they are also intended to fully stimulate students' thinking about art topics, rather than imprisoning their thinking.

The first few are all investigations of some common knowledge points.

One of them, and one of the most commonly examined, is about the musical origins of the Two Rivers Valley.

This is the beginning of this chapter in the history of Western classical music, and compared with the religious music of the Middle Ages, it is a clearer and easier to understand part of the history of classical music.

The correct answer is roughly from the court of the ancient Babylonian Empire, as evidenced by the goblet-shaped drum.

As long as students are able to answer a few of these points, they can be scored.

In the first few questions, most of the answers to this question are quite satisfactory. There were a few blanks that I didn't answer, obviously because I didn't study hard.

There is a lot of writing about this question in the next test paper.

But after a closer look, Xiao Yuanshan was a little stunned.

"The current prevailing view of the origin of the music of the two basins begins with the court music of the ancient Babylonian Empire, as evidenced by the goblet-shaped drum. However, at the same time, the Sumerians living in Mesopotamia invented the first cuneiform script, from which they developed their own musical tradition, which predates the origins of court music in the ancient Babylonian Empire. ”

Below, the student lists a few more arguments.

The red pen in Xiao Yuanshan's hand lightly tapped on the test paper, and his brows frowned slightly.

He also knew the history of the Sumerians, and the cuneiform script created by the former is also one of the oldest in the world. But it's not that the Sumerian musical tradition is absent, but it's still at the forefront of world music. First, there is not enough argumentation, and second, there are many historical reasons.

Except for some cutting-edge papers, there is absolutely no mention of this issue in music textbooks at home and abroad.

Even, Xiao Yuanshan believes that most domestic classical music researchers do not necessarily know about this problem.

Why was this student able to answer?

He glanced at the name on the side of the test paper, it was a more familiar female student who was cultivated by the academy as a seedling. She can answer it, it should be that she has the conditions under class and has read some cutting-edge papers.

It's entirely possible.

It is also very encouraging.

Xiao Yuanshan felt a little relieved in his heart, especially that some of the arguments listed below this student were not even clear to him.

This surprised him even more, although he didn't know whether it was true or not, but it was also discussable.

The question, of course, is a big perfect score.

After Xiao Yuanshan finished approving this volume, he put it aside first, and asked in detail after waiting.

Flipping through the following papers, he was stunned again when he got this question.

The student replied directly that the musical origins of the Two Rivers Valley began with the Sumerians who lived in Mesopotamia, and the arguments listed below are almost the same as those of the excellent female student above.

Xiao Yuanshan frowned, such a similar answer seems to have plagiarism.

This excellent female student, whom she values more, also makes these small moves in the examination room?

Putting this one aside, Xiao Yuanshan continued to flip through the scroll below.

On the same question, nearly two-thirds of the students in this department, on this topic, mentioned the Sumerians and gave almost the same arguments.

Is there really a lot of plagiarism?

The pen in Xiao Yuanshan's hand was on the test paper.

However, the response in the examination room today is still relatively good.

The final exam at the University of Shanghai is also very strict.

That means that there is also a situation where these students have all obtained or reviewed the same document before the exam.

There is nothing wrong with this, every year in the exam of the same subject, there is a certain overlap in the questions, and it is understandable that students focus on surprise review.

But why, do they all answer this one?

Among these students, the one who answered in the most detail was the female student who was regarded as a seedling by him.

Could it be the memorization materials she prepared for everyone before the exam?

Thinking of this, Xiao Yuanshan put down the red pen in his hand, flipped through the phone number of the female student on his mobile phone, and dialed it.
