210. Creating the Best University (First Update)
On Sunday afternoon, Gu Yang teleported to a small mountain village more than 1,000 kilometers away from Jiangxia, where he had come to visit a special talent, and according to the system's search, this was the most suitable person in China to be the president of the university he envisioned as realizing his dreams.
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that the previous system had repeatedly proven its reliability, Gu Yang really didn't believe that the most suitable person to be the president of the university he envisioned would actually live in such a small mountain village.
Climbed a small hill to the top, more than 200 meters away in front of the small mountain village of about thirty or forty families, most of them are relatively old tiled houses, obviously still relatively poor, so that Gu Yang's mood can't help but feel a little heavy, there are many more places like this in China, and the road to get rid of poverty and become rich is still very long.
Nowadays, although Dream Group can rely on strong scientific and technological strength and strong financial support, it can quickly make great progress and create one economic miracle after another in the local area, but after all, it can only benefit a few people and a few regions, and to a certain extent, it also compresses the competition space for the rest of the regions and the rest of the people. In order to put the people of a wider region on the road to prosperity, we need to think of more ways and make greater efforts.
It is also partly based on this consideration that Gu Yang is determined to go to a poor and backward city with a large jurisdiction, and he wants to spend a little more thought, not to rely on external forces, to give full play to the local characteristics, and to embark on a more reasonable road to prosperity. Only by gaining such experience and cooperating with the vigorous development of Dream Group can the people of the whole country embark on the road of prosperity as soon as possible in the future.
Guyang thirst-hopes to have a new and more challenging big stage.
Taking a deep breath to retract his thoughts, Gu Yang carried the bag and continued to walk towards the village in front. Of course, he will not forget the purpose of his visit - to visit the stranger.
As soon as they approached the village, the barking of dogs began one after another. Strange visitors were not welcome, and Gu Yang couldn't help but shake his head and smile. Follow a one-meter-wide dirt path to a house on the other side of the village.
Soon, Gu Yang came to the old one-story brick house, in a small open space in front of the house, about thirty quacking ducks gathered, and a middle-aged man wearing glasses was throwing golden grain in an unharmonious manner, and the ducks were very happy to grab it.
Gu Yang recognized that this was the strange person searched by the system. Gu Yang also did some understanding before he came, and knew that this strange man named Jiao Yu had also been the president of a private university, but the new education he implemented was strictly constrained by the system. He was forced to interrupt because of lack of money, and later became a teacher for a period of time, struggling because his teaching philosophy was incompatible with the current education system. After many setbacks, in a fit of anger, Jiao Yu simply returned to his hometown to become a farmer.
Gu Yang cautiously walked around the ducks, met Jiao Yu's puzzled gaze, and asked politely, "Does Teacher Jiao live here?" ”
"I am." Jiao Yu readily admitted, "May I ask who you are?" ”
"My name is Gu Yang. I heard about your legend and came to visit you to share my views on innovative education. Gu Yang eagerly explained his intentions.
"What a legend, it's a series of failures. I'm ashamed. Jiao Yu shook his head and sighed, and sprinkled the millet in the basin in his hand directly, "It's hard for you to come from afar." Come and sit at home. ”
"Okay." Gu Yang answered happily and followed Jiao Yu into the house. There is also a 21-inch old color TV in the hall, and there is a bit of a modern shadow.
In the house, a woman who was more agile and looked several years younger than Jiao Yu was sweeping the floor, and Jiao Yu introduced: "This is my wife." Qin Yuanyuan. Yuanyuan, this is a friend from afar, named Gu Yang. ”
Gu Yang nodded and greeted warmly: "Sister Qin, hello." ”
Qin Yuanyuan was polite and graceful: "Gu Yang, hello, welcome to our house as a guest, a little shabby, see and smile." ”
Gu Yang turned his head to look over and praised sincerely: "The house is very tidy and tidy, and it feels very comfortable." ”
Qin Yuanyuan was in a very good mood: "Thank you for the compliment......"
Then Qin Yuanyuan went to make tea, and Gu Yang sat at the dinner table with Jiao Yu.
"I had a bold idea to start a brand new university that would completely subvert the traditional higher education model," Gu said. However, I haven't studied in college and don't have enough experience, so I want to hear your opinion, Mr. Jiao. ”
A glimmer of brilliance flashed in Jiao Yu's eyes, but it disappeared immediately, and he said with emotion: "The idea is good, but it is difficult to realize it at present." I've tried it with enthusiasm, but it's a failure, and I don't recommend you try it. ”
"I don't care if I can succeed or not." Gu Yang said lightly: "Let's discuss our views on new education." Regardless of the actual situation, theoretical discussion is always possible. ”
"Not bad." Jiao Yu agreed, and immediately became interested, "Let's talk about your thoughts first." ”
Gu Yang said: "My ideas are mainly based on professional learning and interest learning. The so-called professional learning is no longer just about learning as learning, but as a kind of work. Once a student is admitted to my university, it is equivalent to going to the society to participate in the work, studying at my university is a job, no tuition, free room and board, and monthly salary. I plan to give 3,000 yuan per month to freshmen, 5,000 yuan to sophomores, 7,000 yuan to juniors, 9,000 yuan to seniors, 18,000 yuan to graduate students, 20,000 yuan to graduate students, 40,000 yuan to junior students, and 42,000 yuan to junior students. ”
Jiao Yu felt that his brain was opened, and he sighed deeply: "Your idea is really good, so that you can recruit a large number of very good students, and the foundation will be very good." More importantly, once learning becomes a kind of work, students are no longer just students, need to assume the corresponding work responsibilities, there is no free lunch in the world, and it is a matter of course to complete the learning content seriously, students have a sense of responsibility, and then the school formulates a more humane reward and punishment system, and the enthusiasm for learning is bound to be unprecedentedly high, and you can really learn the knowledge and skills you should have, and become an outstanding talent. ”
Gu Yang was suddenly excited, and he felt that the talents searched systematically were really powerful, and he hit the nail on the head.
"Teacher Jiao, you can understand my intentions very well, that's what I think."
Jiao Yu sighed: "The idea is good." It's a pity that a lot of money is needed. Suppose the school has 3,000 students, and the average monthly salary for each student is 6,000 yuan. Every year, more than 200 million yuan is needed to pay wages alone, but not a penny is paid. How can this be sustained? In order to cooperate with such a high level of education, the teaching force must also be very strong, just to build a school to buy equipment to prepare 1 billion yuan, in addition to the need to hire excellent faculty and staff with high salaries, after all, private universities have a bad reputation, to invite excellent faculty and staff, the cost is much greater, an excellent teacher monthly salary needs to be more than 10,000, the school must be prepared to hire at least 500 people. This will cost more than 60 million per year. Cultivating students is a long-term task, and it is impossible to have benefits in the short term, and even if students are trained, students may not be grateful to create wealth for the school. ”
Gu Yang smiled slightly, "This is just a theoretical discussion, let's not consider the issue of money first, let's assume that there are enough financial resources, and there is enough space for students to display their talents after graduation." ”
Jiao Yu also smiled, "Yes." It's just a theoretical discussion, something that is not practical in the first place, and if you think about what you actually do, you should be bold and conceivable. Guyang. You've got a lot of ideas, so keep talking. ”
At this time, Qin Yuanyuan brought two cups of steaming chrysanthemum tea, and saw the long-lost enthusiasm on Jiao Yu's face. She felt particularly relieved and placed the tea in front of the two of them. "Let's talk while we drink."
"Okay." Gu Yang responded briskly, and Jiao Yu waved his hand at Qin Yuanyuan. "You go and do your business, don't bother us."
"Got it." Qin Yuanyuan rolled her eyes happily, how rare it was for her husband to be so interested.
Waiting for Qin Yuanyuan to turn around, Jiao Yu couldn't wait: "Gu Yang, you go on." ”
Gu Yang continued: "Professional learning, adhering to the basic principle that learning is work and work is learning. When students come to the school, it is equivalent to participating in the work, not only do they no longer have to worry about the high tuition fees and living expenses, but they can earn more and more money, psychologically, students will have no worries, and their self-confidence and enthusiasm will increase unprecedentedly. Of course, since learning is work, it is necessary to complete the task just like in the company, that is, learning, and it is definitely not possible to hang a child. At present, the focus of education in our country is to cope with examinations, and this kind of examination-oriented education is not feasible.
I envision that each course has a certain number of points, most of which should be obtained by completing homework independently in the usual study, and the final exam only accounts for a small part of the points, so that students can not be lazy in ordinary times, and they should be allowed to study hard in ordinary times by relying on exam raids alone. Of course, this kind of learning also needs to be combined with another important point I will mention - interest learning, so that the task and interest are highly organically combined, so as to maximize the potential of learning and truly learn real skills.
In terms of points, if the total monthly points are less than a certain standard, the student's salary will be deducted accordingly according to the degree of difference in points, and the more the difference, the more deductions. On the contrary, if the total number of points per month exceeds the standard, the corresponding reward will be based on the degree of excess, and the more exceeded, the more rewards. Of course, in terms of rewards and punishments, the focus is on rewards, the standard will not be very high, students only need to work hard to reach the standard line, without being deducted salary, more hard work can get a more generous reward, if you work hard, the reward is very rich, up to three times the salary. And the total points of each year also have a standard that is not difficult to achieve, if you can't meet this standard, you have to repeat the grade, and if you can't meet the standard after repeating a year, you can only drop out. In addition to the high annual total points, there are also generous rewards. The combination of rewards and punishments is very necessary to ensure students' consciousness of learning. ”
Jiao Yu nodded in agreement: "This idea is very good, which can ensure unprecedented learning consciousness." The school is the company, the company is the school, the school can mess around, the company can't mess around. I believe that in this way, we will be able to produce very good human resources. Tell us about your thoughts on interest learning. ”
Gu Yang nodded and continued: "The fundamental focus of interest learning is to link theory with practice, and I envision that more time will be spent in the classroom for each course, but out of the classroom, and through on-the-spot experience and practice in various places to gain a deep impression. Figuratively speaking, learning will be completed more in a variety of various types of tourism, turning learning into a relaxing recreational activity. At that time, students will travel around the country and even the world, learning on the road. Of course, this requires a very good and imaginative team of teaching staff, and this way of teaching will be revolutionary. ”
Jiao Yu was excited: "Gu Yang, you have too many ideas, so that the students' learning pleasure will be unprecedentedly strong, and the teacher's teaching pleasure will also be unprecedented, which will definitely stimulate the interest and imagination of teachers and students to the greatest extent!" ”
After a pause, he sighed again: "It's a pity that it takes too much money, it's just a burning of money!" ”
"I can't bear the wolf!" Gu Yang said very relaxedly: "Cultivating outstanding talents is the most important thing, and the value that can be created in the future is definitely much greater than the investment." ”
"That's the truth." Jiao Yu agreed very much, but sighed in vain: "It's just that the cost is too high, the cycle is too long, and there is a very important point, too novel practices are bound to encounter great resistance, and the institutional restrictions are still very large." Moreover, no matter how good a private university is, it is still a private university after all, and it will not be recognized by the Ministry of Education. ”
"What do you want the Ministry of Education to admit to doing?" Gu Yang disagreed, "Since I graduated from university, I have the highest gold content, and I can shine everywhere." Of course, I will not release talents casually, and will leave them a broad and wonderful stage. After all, cultivating talented people is only a means, and the purpose is to better serve the country and the people. ”
"Gu Yang, you are the most thoughtful young man I have ever met, I sigh to myself." Jiao Yu's eyes were earnest, "If the impossible conditions envisaged can really be realized, I believe that you will definitely be able to run the best university." ”
"Thank you for your kind words, I'm just thinking about it, if you really want to do it, I'm not as good as you." Gu Yang looked humble and said earnestly: "Teacher Jiao, I have a request. ”
"So what are you going to do, but it's okay to say." Jiao Yu is very atmospheric.
Gu Yang said: "I want to establish a comprehensive university with a total of about 150,000 students, of course, this cannot be done in one step, but the enrollment also starts from the freshmen, only the first year, the second year only has the sophomore, and so on step by step, and finally reaches the scale I envisioned." Now I just want to ask Mr. Jiao to help you make a detailed plan for the creation of such a university according to the basic principles and requirements I have put forward, without considering the cost, just give full play to your imagination and boldly conceive. These are some of my immature thoughts, and I'm tired of you, Mr. Jiao. ”
As he spoke, Gu Yang took out a document of about 20 pages from the bag he brought and handed it over.
"No problem." Jiao Yu took it, "I am very interested in this very distinctive theoretical innovation. ”
Gu Yang said lightly: "I can't let you be busy in vain, I will come back in two months, there is a reward of 200,000 yuan for this plan, and I will give you a deposit of 40,000 yuan first." To give! ”
As he spoke, Gu Yang took out four stacks of red tickets from the bag and put them on the table.
"This can't be helped!" Jiao Yu hurriedly pushed it back. (To be continued.) )
