You don't have to study mathematics for any major in the university 1. Philosophy major?
Philosophy major belongs to a big category. Under the specific differentiation of this major, there are many small majors, such as China's philosophy, foreign philosophy and so on. This major has nothing to do with mathematics. After four years of college, you won't be exposed to math courses, nor will you take the postgraduate entrance examination.
2. Chinese language and literature major
This major is known as the panacea in liberal arts. High employment rate, high praise, no need to learn mathematics. Many students are particularly envious. Now our country pays more and more attention to our traditional culture, and the study of Chinese language and literature on characters, literature and language just conforms to this trend. On the theory of literature uselessness, female college students who study Chinese seem to have a unique charm.
3. Advertising major
As a pure liberal arts major, children who study advertising basically bid farewell to the word mathematics, followed by beautiful women like clouds and various interesting and novel courses.
4. Journalism major
Compared with advertising majors, journalism majors don't need to study mathematics, but the degree of relaxation is far from perfect. The same is true of shooting. People shoot advertisements and micro-movies, which are full of interest, while journalism is mainly news programs and documentaries. The boring mode is sometimes hard to stick to, especially journalism also covers me and literature, and some schools even offer courses on ancient literature for this major, which makes this major's courses very boring. In short, although journalism majors don't have to study mathematics, other courses will still make you miserable.
5. Archaeology major
As an extremely unpopular major, the course is actually very interesting. Unlike many people who think that people who read history and take geography exams every day, and those who have seen Ghost Blowing Lights, the archaeological team inside is actually composed of archaeological professionals. Now the archaeological community will also have the opportunity to make a field trip and see the great rivers and mountains of the motherland. The most important thing is that they will never learn math!
6. Minor language major
Small languages are still very popular in recent years. With the development of domestic economy, there is still a great demand for such talents. Many small languages in schools have also come into people's field of vision. Different from English majors, although there is generally little difference in courses, there are still many English talents except the corresponding languages, and the relative employment difficulty is greater than that of most small languages.
At the same time, such talents have a wide range of employment, and the wages they can get are not bad. It can be said that it is the best choice for people who don't like mathematics but have advantages in Chinese.
7. Chinese as a foreign language major
This major is generally bilingual teaching, which requires us to have a solid foundation in Chinese and English, and have a comprehensive understanding of China culture, literature and cultural exchanges between China and foreign countries. It is a comprehensive subject that integrates language, culture and history. It is not necessary to study mathematics, which is very advantageous for those who learn liberal arts well.
With the improvement of China's international status, the craze for Chinese has been going on for several years. The whole world is learning Chinese, but there is a serious shortage of Chinese teachers in many countries. Many countries and regions have cooperative universities in China. Every year, the school sends students or graduate students to practice and teach abroad, and China's income abroad is not low. If they can teach abroad, the prospects are still considerable.
How to learn college mathematics well?
College students are more complicated and nervous than middle school students, and they are more conscious and independent. Therefore, the strength of learning motivation has a great influence on college students' academic performance. In senior high school, students' only learning goal is to be admitted to the university, and the goal is clear. Coupled with the supervision of teachers and parents, they study very hard. Once their goals are achieved, they are easy to relax. They want to have a good time in college, but they have no clear learning goals. On the other hand, freshmen's self-control ability is generally poor and easily influenced by others. Sometimes they imitate the practice of senior students intentionally or unintentionally, and gradually lose their self-control ability.
Therefore, freshmen should set their learning goals as soon as possible to adapt to the relaxed learning atmosphere outside the campus. In college, few people supervise you, few people take the initiative to guide you, and no one sets specific learning goals for you. Everyone faces their own learning independently, and everyone should have their own goals. Everyone unconsciously compares with their own yesterday, their own potential and others, so the autonomy of learning is very important.
Second, adjust the learning methods.
Inheriting the learning methods of senior high school, it is quite common for freshmen to improve their abilities in an all-round way even if they study hard. After entering the university, the teacher-led teaching mode has become a student-led self-study mode. After teachers impart knowledge in class, students should not only digest and understand what they have learned in class, but also read a lot of books and documents in related fields. It can be said that the level of self-study ability has become the most important factor affecting academic performance. This kind of autonomous learning ability includes: being able to independently determine learning objectives, questioning what the teacher said, summarizing what he learned and expressing it for discussion.
The transition from the old learning method to the new learning method is a process that every freshman must go through. Ideologically, we should realize that if we want to succeed in school, we must make full use of the existing learning conditions, master and apply what we have learned and improve our ability. Getting through this stage as early as possible can be very smooth, less detours, reduce psychological pressure and promote the improvement of academic performance.
Third, do a good job in preview and review
Proper preview is necessary. By previewing before class, you can have a systematic understanding of the content of this section, initially form a framework of knowledge system in your mind, and have a general and comprehensive understanding of its content, so as to distinguish priorities and make your study targeted. If you don't have much time, you can browse the main contents that the teacher will talk about, and have a general impression, which can help you keep up with the teacher's thinking in class to some extent. If you have enough time, besides browsing, you can also read some of the contents in detail and prepare questions to see what is the difference between your understanding and the teacher's explanation, and what questions need to be discussed with the teacher. If you can do this, then your study will become more active and in-depth, and you will get better grades.
Review carefully every time after class, which is a learning process that many students easily ignore at present. By reviewing-reading textbooks, notes and reference books, and then answering the examples in class, what should I say today? What are the key points and difficulties? What did you accept? What is the level of using knowledge to solve problems? What are the problems and how to solve them (think for yourself or discuss with others)? Usually it takes the same time to review as the class time.
After completing a stage (such as a chapter), we should summarize what we have learned, because it is impossible for knowledge to automatically form organized things and store them in our brains. To be systematic and organized, the simple way is to sort out and classify what you have learned at present, and pay attention to the relationship between similar knowledge and other types of knowledge, which is conducive to mastering knowledge from a macro and global perspective.
Fourth, listen to the class and concentrate.
It goes without saying that you should listen to the class carefully. Successful classroom teaching does not depend on whether it is detailed, but on making the main idea, key points and difficulties clear through classroom teaching, leaving some details to students and leaving problems worth thinking about to students. Therefore, when students are in class, they should focus on listening to the teacher's ideas and analysis of difficulties. If you don't know some details, it won't affect you to continue listening to other content. As long as you get the general idea, it doesn't matter if you don't hear some details clearly. You can fill in all the details along this line of thinking and finally come to a conclusion.
In addition, to learn college mathematics well, we must learn to take notes. Taking notes will make us more focused on the classroom and help us to review and consolidate effectively after class. Some students can't take notes. As long as what the teacher said is unimportant and detailed, they all remember it correctly. Their ears, eyes and hands are too busy to think synchronously. If so, they might as well not remember. There is no need to pursue unity, integrity and systematicness in class notes. It is necessary to remember selectively and emphatically, especially those general and skillful problem-solving methods and common and typical examples. Moreover, we should pay attention to the accumulation of problem-solving methods, especially the proof questions, because the proof questions are abstract and often feel that there is no way to start. When reviewing after class, you must properly sort out and supplement your notes.
Five, the basic training is repetitive.
Learning mathematics needs to do a certain number of problems, and the ability to solve problems first depends on the understanding and mastery of basic concepts and principles. Therefore, we should work harder, master the basic concepts and principles, do as many questions as possible, and practice the basic skills thoroughly. However, we do not advocate the tactic of "sea of questions", but advocate refinement, that is, doing some typical questions repeatedly so that a problem can have multiple solutions, which is an important way to improve the ability to solve problems. In addition, you should be good at summing up problems, especially extracting some representative thinking methods from different topics.
Sixth, do your homework carefully.
The main purpose of doing homework is to be familiar with and consolidate what you have learned, and you can find your own shortcomings in knowledge learning through homework. Because the problems in homework may not be solved by directly applying ready-made formulas, it is a process of combining theory with practice. You must finish your homework by yourself. Once you can't do the problem, don't look at the answers to the relevant examples in the textbook or even copy them. For the problems that can't be solved, you should bring your own problems and ideas to discuss with others, so as to finally solve them (so it is suggested to set up a course study group in the dormitory to facilitate mutual exchange and discussion). Under no circumstances should you copy other people's homework. Even if you look at the ready-made solution, you should understand how you did it and why you did it, and then do it again independently.
Seven, correctly treat the answer.
In the process of learning college mathematics, you will encounter all kinds of problems. The deeper you think, the more questions you have. Doubt is a good thing. Regardless of the size of the problem, it is "knowledge" that accumulates. If you don't think about it, you are fooling around. You can ask your own questions and answer them yourself, and "suddenly enlightened" under "thinking hard" is really called "endless fun" You can also ask your classmates. Learn from each other and brainstorm.
It is the bounden duty of the teacher to solve problems for students, and the duty time for answering questions arranged by the teacher is a valuable resource that you should make full use of (the duty table for answering questions is published in the teacher's office of the College of Science every semester). Any teacher can ask questions as long as you teach math. When answering a question, the teacher may not give you a complete answer, but will give you a hint to keep thinking for yourself. Sometimes you need enough patience, carefully follow the teacher's guidance and make a good budget. If you really understand it under the guidance of the teacher, it is of course the best. Otherwise, don't understand is don't understand. Don't be embarrassed to ask more questions, and don't worry that the teacher will be impatient. The teacher will definitely give you the second step of guidance and the third step of inspiration. Until you fully understand it.
Eight, extracurricular reading
Refer to as many books as possible to broaden your horizons, increase your knowledge and deepen your understanding. There are two ways to read reference books. The first method is to read a book intensively. Practice has proved that you should grasp a reference book and read it intensively under the guidance of the teacher. If you can read a representative reference book well, you can easily read other reference books. The second method is to focus on the problem and read reference books selectively. Specifically, if you are interested in a certain part of college mathematics learning or a certain problem, and want to know more and do more in-depth research, then you can consult several books to see how other books discuss this problem, and you can make a summary yourself, which is also an important way to cultivate your self-study ability.
