I never thought that I just came to inspect the construction site and dig up personal ones by the way, but it turned out to solve a problem that has been bothering me recently.

Of course, there are solutions, but it is still difficult to form a complete set of systems, and there are too many aspects to consider in the middle.

And once a decision is made, it will be a decision that will affect history, and this is a national decision, not a decision that ordinary people can make by patting their butts.

For Qu Tu Zhongxiang, Li Chengguang also knows a little.

Although the level is not bad, to be honest, with his ability, there is not much hope of entering the Academy of Sciences.

Those who can enter the Academy of Sciences are not ranked in the forefront of academics, but Qu Tu Zhongxiang is only ranked in the middle.

Of course, no one stipulates that you can't enter the middle school, especially the academy is not only for the academy of sciences to cultivate talents, some candidates will be admitted to the academy of sciences in advance, but some are dedicated to their careers.

If there are more people in their careers this time, then there is hope for him?

There is no doubt that the Academy of Sciences will replenish fresh blood every year, and it cannot just be eliminated without replenishing, so that in a few years, it will form a generation of talents.

In fact, there is this concern now, because in the past few years, there are not even 1,000 apprentices who have entered the Academy of Sciences, but there are only more than 30 people who have really been cultivated and left the title of apprentice, and the success rate is too low.

You must know that these are all collected from the four major academies, and their achievements during the academy period are among the best.

Next, Li Chengguang was naturally very domineering and directly pulled Qu Tu Zhongxiang away.

For this decision, Qu Tushou not only did not have any dissatisfaction, but even quietly threw a flattering look at Qu Tu Zhongxiang, well, he was actually threatening him, suggesting that this thing should not make any stupid decisions with hot brains.

Although the two second-generation figures of the Qu Tu family have lost the opportunity to be promoted in their careers, their hearts have never died.

Therefore, this hope is naturally pinned on the three generations of the family.

Qu Tu Zhongxiang is naturally the hope of hope.

Of course, the main reason is that there are too few descendants of the Qu Tu family, and only Qu Tu Zhongxiang is recorded in history.

Putting aside other people's family affairs for the time being, after Li Chengguang pulled Qu Tu Zhongxiang back to Chang'an, he threw him to the subordinate officials of the East Palace and asked him to explain to him the current situation in the Tang Dynasty.

Although Qu Tu Zhongxiang was studying at Chang'an Academy, he didn't know anything about the higher levels.

Everyone knows that the Academy of Sciences recruits no less than 100 newcomers every year, but no one knows the fact that these newcomers are actually unreliable and the success rate is too low.

To put it more simply, this is actually the reason for the textbook.

At present, Datang only has three textbooks, one is the first elementary textbook, then the intermediate textbook that was launched later, and then the advanced textbook that began to be implemented after the establishment of the academy.

From the perspective of later generations, it can be seen as elementary school, junior high school, and then directly jumped to the university stage.

But in fact, in addition to the elementary and intermediate textbooks, the advanced textbooks cannot be called really advanced textbooks, these textbooks are nothing more than the addition of some technical principle knowledge, etc., and the others still rely more on the original elementary and intermediate textbooks.

In other words, the amount of knowledge that the students who graduated from the four major academies today really mastered is at best similar to that of the graduates of vocational colleges after the millennium, provided that the graduates of vocational colleges have studied seriously in school.

The teaching process is also very similar to that of vocational colleges, but it is just larger.

"Your Highness, the students feel that the fundamental reason for this result lies in their lack of proficiency in their studies!" The current situation of the Academy of Sciences, the current situation of the Academy, Qu Tu Zhongxiang also understood it through half a day, in fact, this is not a difficult matter, a problem that can be summarized in a few words, after thinking about it for two days, Qu Tu Zhongxiang finally found out the problem.

"Not good at learning?" Li Chengguang was stunned, although it was very much in line with the current situation, but he dared to say that the students who graduated from the four major academies were not good at learning and art, and this was the first one.

Of course, no matter how capable Li Chengguang is, he is only a nine-year-old child, and his intelligence is far from developing to the adult stage, and it is normal that some problems cannot be thought of or understood.

"Exactly, or to put it more detailed, there is a huge problem with the curriculum of the college." Qu Tu Zhongxiang said bluntly, as a student of the academy, he naturally knows better than anyone what the curriculum is, as a student, he is not qualified to talk about this, but now as a person looking for problems, he is qualified to discuss this issue.

"Tell me about it!" Li Chengguang looked at Qu Tu Zhongxiang with some doubts.

Got a problem with the course?

It's really hard to say this, the previous researchers, or the bare pole, but that group of people has little room for improvement, and now most of them hold some ordinary positions, and the real pillars are the students who graduated from the previous batches of academies, and their knowledge is more sufficient.

If they can all be the backbone, why can't the students who are graduating now complete the task of succession?

The curriculum does change, but this one is to add something more esoteric, as well as some up-to-date knowledge that doesn't involve secrecy.

In this respect, the knowledge learned by the current students is more advanced than that of the group of people back then, but the result is the opposite, and the current students, even after two years of entering the Academy of Sciences, are still overwhelmed, which is very embarrassing.

"Take the students' courses as an example, in fact, the whole college is the same, but the students choose the courses of the mechanical major, but the courses of the mechanical major, the knowledge explained in the book, is the simplest knowledge, the operation principle of the grader, the operation principle of the horse-drawn carriage, the operation principle of the steam engine, and so on. There are principles everywhere, but in reality, this knowledge cannot be said to be useless, but most of them are not useful.

If you are studying steam engines, it may be helpful to learn how horse-drawn carriages work, after all, when steam engines are put into horse-drawn carriages, they are the simplest trucks, but why should you learn how motor graders work? These two are completely incompatible knowledge.

Knowledge is useless, but the problem is that the knowledge learned is too complex, and can not reach the point of single-mindedness and refinement, students are most interested in the steam engine, if you can give up other irrelevant knowledge, or in other words, only learn the steam engine, with a year or two to thoroughly understand the technology, and then in the next two years to explore, to change, even if you can't research the latest steam engine, at least at this time to enter the Academy of Sciences steam engine-related units, only need a short period of learning, It's basically competent.

No matter how bad it is, you can also go to the steam engine factory to take up a technical position, but now you can only learn everything roughly, there is no opportunity for in-depth research, and you need to spend a lot of time in other places, isn't this a waste?

Anyway, students now have a feeling that they know everything in terms of professional technology, but they don't know anything. Qu Tu Zhongxiang took his feelings and analyzed them personally.

"That's too big a change...... Li Chengguang hesitated.

The system of the academy is fixed, and it is impossible for Li Yuanji not to find the problem, but this system is still fixed.

All the students of the academy have about two-thirds of the same courses, which are called compulsory subjects and must be studied by everyone.

The remaining one-third are electives according to personal interests, Qu Tu Zhongxiang chose to major in mechanical engineering, and some students chose administrative management, which is also the most elective, because it will be of great help to them to enter the career in the future.

The two are distinct, one is to be an official, and the other is to go to a technical position, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.

"Your Highness, you don't really need to change anything, does Your Highness remember the preparatory department mentioned by the previous students?" Qu Tu Zhongxiang is naturally not a stunned young man, but the family is there, and what he sees and hears is not comparable to those ordinary people.

Even Li Chengguang can realize the problem, can't the emperor realize it?

Besides, will the emperor make a mistake? Isn't he stupidly proposing to reform the academy in the face?

Once this word spreads, let alone the outside, even the two elders in the family can beat themselves out.

Therefore, the emperor is right, the wrong is the ministers below, their thoughts are too solidified, and they didn't think about further improvement, well, this pot is very suitable and perfect.

"What do you mean is that the college curriculum is still the same, with a separate preparatory department, and students who enter the preparatory department will study exclusively in their majors, so as to achieve mastery, so that they can enter the academy of sciences in only two or three years, starting from the grassroots level?" Li Chengguang understood what Qu Tu Zhongxiang meant.

In fact, it is possible to operate this way, and there is a lot of room for operation.

And this seems to be in line with the current situation.

In the Academy of Sciences, there is a clear division of labor, each unit is only responsible for its own affairs, for example, on the side of the train set, some people are only responsible for the research of the steam engine, some people are only responsible for how the power system can be laid out to provide more kinetic energy under the same pressure, and some people are only responsible for the layout of the entire train.

Those who study steam engines may not understand how trains should be laid out, nor how they should be laid out to provide more power, but does this have an impact? It doesn't matter, just do your own thing and let others do the rest.

It is obviously the most appropriate to describe this problem with the current assembly line, especially the truck production line.

"Yes, that's what it means, it's equivalent to making these apprentices stronger and smaller from the outside."
