Chapter 55: Disagreements in Mentor Training

The busy and intense March is another preparatory period for a new round of mid-semester research for the research company.

In March 2021, in a research company in Chengdu.

What Sun Han didn't expect was that when he first arrived at the company, Dr. Xu was quite rare and entered the door almost at the same time, and took the initiative to find himself.

"Teacher Sun, you are so early, will you have time? Let's talk about the preparations first. ”

"Okay, no problem, Dr. Xu, you're so early, today, I'll put down the computer first, and I'll go to your room right away."

"I can't help it, there is something in our family today, he usually sends the child, today it is my turn, this is not to send the child to study early, it's quite early, I will come directly. Okay, I'll go back to the office first, and you'll just come in a minute. See you in a moment. ”

After simply tidying up the desktop, Sun Han directly found Dr. Xu.

"Come on, you can sit down first, Mr. Sun. How about it recently, the one that Mr. Yao said before, it seems that there is a legacy school from last time that you need to continue to dock, right, is there any progress? ”

"After Mr. Yao finished speaking, I also just started to re-dock, at present, it is just beginning to communicate, now talk about whether there can be a confirmed result in the end, it is still a little early, I will continue to follow up first, for me and our team, after all, the number of projects and the degree of completion are related to additional commissions, there is this realistic factor, my team and I will definitely take it seriously, and we also hope to finally take down that school."

"Mr. Sun, you are honest enough, yes, that's the case, you and your team have always done very well on the project, and I believe everyone can see this, no problem."

"Then Dr. Xu, you just said that you wanted to talk to me about the preparatory period, do you have any new suggestions or ideas?" Sun Han directly introduced the topic to the topic.

"That's right, what we have to do during the preparation period is nothing more than R&D courses, instructor training, materials and other logistical preparations, etc., I won't say much about the course, you and Mr. Zheng are responsible for different projects, this is still up to each of you to grasp it."

"Material preparation is actually related to the course, so what I want to discuss with you today is the content of the instructor training."

Sun Han was not in a hurry to express his position, but continued to listen quietly. Sure enough, Dr. Xu did not wait and directly transitioned to the mentor training link.

"Actually, we have briefly communicated the content of mentor training before, and I think we should be more unified in terms of general modules. I mean that it is divided into two ways of expression, basic training and real-life training, I remember, we just seemed to have some objections about the proportion of each module before, right? ”

Sun Han nodded, "Yes, Dr. Xu, I have also communicated with you about this part of the content before, and I fully agree with the two expressions you just proposed. As for what you just mentioned, we had some objections to their respective proportions before, in fact, it was not only the proportion, the time was too tight last time, in fact, I didn't talk about the specific content included, if you are free today, I just want to talk to you about the content of things. ”

"Okay, Mr. Sun, then let me talk about my thoughts first, and then let's discuss it together."

"The first is basic training, and in terms of content, I think it should include general knowledge and professional knowledge. General knowledge, such as the professionalism of the tutor, the guidelines of the tutor, the content of the tutor's work, etc.; In terms of professional knowledge, this is definitely combined with the course content. ”

Seeing that Sun Han didn't speak, Dr. Xu simply mentioned the next point. "The second is real-life training, which is actually the kind of mock test you mentioned before, Mr. Sun, set some questions in advance, with scenarios, and then ask these tutors to directly feedback their handling practices, and then we will correspond to the investigation or assessment."

Seeing that Dr. Xu had almost finished speaking, Sun Han directly greeted him with a question. "Dr. Xu, what you just analyzed is more detailed and clear, so what do you think about the emphasis, or the proportion of each?"

"I think that the proportion of the first type of basic training is definitely greater than that of the second type of real-life training, and it is far greater than that of the second kind of real-life training, I plan to appear in the form of additional questions, and I think it will be fine."

Dr. Xu continued to analyze, "Regarding the first type of basic training, I also mentioned two parts just now, I think it is about half and half, because it involves professional knowledge related to the content of your course, this part is not easy to estimate now, but the former, that is, general knowledge is the foundation of everything, which is very important, so let's draw up half and half for the time being." ”

"I don't know Mr. Sun, what do you think? What do you think? I also want to communicate with you in depth today, so let's have a good chat, and say whatever you want. This topic was thrown back to Sun Han.

Sun Han thought about it for a while, in fact, she didn't think that there was anything to think about in the content of this answer, mainly in the words and even the tone and tone of this reply, so she had to think about it more. When Sun Han heard Dr. Xu's statement, he knew that he must have a different opinion, but how to express this different opinion, so that Dr. Xu could accept it, and even talk about it better, this point needs to be considered.

"Dr. Xu, in fact, on the issue of proportion, I raised it when we discussed it before, and now I still adhere to a similar point of view, I personally suggest that the proportion of real-life training is greater than that of basic training. Regarding the two parts of the basic training you mentioned, I also suggest that the importance of professional knowledge is greater than general knowledge. I'm not saying that general knowledge is not important, but for on-site practical operations, it is more necessary to combine with the course content, more application and performance, I will say more directly, that is, to make the experiencers more able to have a superficial impression, in fact, it is the professionalism of the instructors. ”

Seeing that Dr. Xu wanted to refute immediately, Sun Han took the lead, "It's not a good business, Dr. Xu, I have a little more to add first." I have another proposal, our research instructors, in fact, the tasks are different, some are teaching, some are life, so I suggest that the training should also be separated. ”

"What I mean is that, for example, in the teaching category, then the professional knowledge in the real-life training or basic training will be much more important and should be more emphasized. Regarding life instructors, I think the same proportion of real-life training should be greater than that of basic training, but as for the two parts of basic training, I agree with what you just said, half and half, I think it's about okay. ”

After listening to what Dr. Xu said, he was obviously a little choked for a while, and he wanted to express something, but he couldn't grasp the point.

"Teacher Sun, your analysis is very organized and comprehensive. But after you analyze, including what you said just now, professional quality is more important when you practice on the spot, then I have to ask you a rhetorical question, we are just discussing, there is no general knowledge or there is no basic literacy as a foundation, no matter how good the profession is, it means that the experiencers will be satisfied? I don't think so. What do you think? ”

Sun Han secretly felt a little helpless and laughed in his heart, in fact, what Dr. Xu said in this reply was clearly a change of concept, and even a little strong words. I've never denied the importance of basic training or general knowledge.

"Dr. Xu, I never said that basic training or general knowledge is not important, I have already expressed it at the beginning, and I fully agree with the two types of training you proposed. I think now we just have some objections about the proportion of each other, and it's not that I'm going to deny the training program itself. ”

Sun Han paused, "Actually, I think we have talked in more detail now, so I want to ask you in depth, how do you plan to train this basic training or general knowledge, and how do you deal with the specific way of training?" I think it's good to wait for us to discuss the further details and then move on to the respective weightings later. Do you think it's okay? ”

Seeing that Sun Han asked very carefully, Dr. Xu also added slowly.

"Basic training is actually similar to general knowledge, my current idea is to show it in PPT, at most, if we have time permitting, we can also search and integrate some educational videos, send them over, and let the instructors watch it themselves. Although this part of the content is important, I believe that the instructors are all experienced people, and they will distinguish which is more important and which is more important, and watch and even record it on their own. ”

Sun Han actually didn't expect that Dr. Xu would reply in such a rough and even a bit sloppy, of course, it may also be that Dr. Xu didn't think of this specific step, but just said it temporarily. But this kind of reply gives Sun Han the feeling that it is clear that he is going to complete the task for the sake of completing the task, but he just sent it over, so who knows if everyone sees it or not? If you evaluate or even test, none of that.

Sun Han was a little helpless, followed by a sentence: "Dr. Xu, I personally think that this way is not necessarily safe." We have prepared and sent it, but will the tutors read it, will they memorize it, how do we know it, how do we evaluate it? ”

Sun Han followed up and continued to analyze, "And when we do research, we don't always pay attention to abandoning passive learning, and we shouldn't be taught by teachers and memorized by students, we should focus on active learning." The training of the instructors, I personally think it is the same concept, the instructors are also mainly active learning, should not be passively received. And can we set some questions and conduct assessments, and the evaluation results are also a key part of the screening. ”

Dr. Xu was a little dumbfounded, frowned slightly, and squeezed out a sentence: "Teacher Sun, I hope you still have to respect me, let's discuss with each other, and it won't rise to this point." ”

This sentence is a bit nonsensical, and Sun Han didn't know what to say for a while, as if, no matter what he said, it was a feeling that he couldn't talk about.

Fortunately, Dr. Xu took the initiative to terminate the conversation, "So let's do it, I think we have all expressed our stance today, anyway, the differences still exist, then I will report directly to Mr. Yao and Mr. Zhang, and finally ask them to decide." ”

Sun Han couldn't say whether Dr. Xu's last sentence was with some helplessness or a small threat, and he used the general manager's suppressed tone, so he had to respond and go back to his office.
