Principles of selecting topics for graduation thesis

Principles of selecting topics for graduation thesis

Let's talk about the principles of topic selection for graduation thesis. First, you have to determine what problems you want to study, and then you have to study how to write.

So what's the problem with writing? We choose topics in the field of writing.

First, we should choose questions with scientific value.

The following principles should be followed in selecting a topic: First, choose a question with scientific value. Including five aspects: first, we should choose the topics that need to be solved urgently. Generally speaking, there are always some problems that need to be solved urgently in various disciplines. Scientific research should first pay attention to these urgent problems, so as to reduce the blindness of topic selection. In the fields of international relations, economy, law, medicine, agriculture and environmental protection, it can be said that the topics to be solved urgently are still outstanding. In other words, students in these subjects should first focus on the problems that need to be solved urgently when choosing topics. Like the field of environmental protection, what problems need to be solved urgently? What should we pay attention to in environmental protection in this region and this industry? Let's go back to the education front. Not long ago, I participated in the thesis defense of five or six masters of education. I think their topics are all good. One is to choose a question about the textbook. At present, all kinds of teaching materials emerge one after another. If the teaching materials are well compiled, it will be conducive to educational reform, which is the basis of teaching. If the teaching materials are unscientific, teachers will spend a lot of money in the process of teaching reform, but the effect will be very small. So many masters choose textbooks. There are also some masters who choose teaching methods. With the change of teaching materials, teaching methods should be improved. I'm not sure whether the students in our online education college have teachers involved in this work. If so, you may wish to choose some topics you have experienced in combination with your own practice. For example, a teacher wrote "Teaching Experience of Comprehensive Learning in New Textbooks", and then put forward five main points of Chinese lesson preparation for the new textbooks. From the teaching point of view, there is another topic similar to this, "Evaluation and Exploration of Improving Students' Chinese Literacy", which puts forward the question of how to evaluate it. Evaluation itself is very important, and proper and scientific evaluation is conducive to improving students' Chinese literacy. I think these problems need to be studied.

As a Chinese major, it is not so urgent compared with economics, law and other majors. Of course, it is not without problems to be solved urgently, but there is still a certain distance from social contact. Therefore, as a student in China, the thesis topic can follow the following principles:

First, choose the problems that need to be solved urgently. One of my books, Reading Appreciation Review, contains such a model essay, the rationale of Chinese character configuration and the division of modern Chinese character components. This subject is an urgent problem to be solved. Because in this field, everyone is exploring, and exploration itself is not a bad thing, but it is inconclusive to some extent. The more you explore, the more chaotic it is. Under such circumstances, as an authority, we must think seriously. The public says it's right, and the old woman says it's right, but on the whole, it makes sense after all. This article is based on my own thinking, sorting out the chaos. Then I put forward my own unique opinion. There is also an article called "Scientific Exploration of Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language" by Wang Kuijin. What is the definition of teaching Chinese as a foreign language? If this definition is not scientifically defined, there will be many problems in teaching Chinese as a foreign language. In this case, the author talks about his own views from the aspects of teaching, psychology and applied linguistics. After thinking about several subjects, he thought about how to position the teaching of Chinese as a foreign language. From what has been said above, we want to make it clear that China is not without problems that need to be solved urgently. Look at your usual thinking and observation of some problems in your professional field. Generally speaking, our undergraduate students have little experience and practical experience, so it is difficult to choose a topic in this respect. But there is such a principle in principle. Then you can do better. If you can't do it, then we can cut in from another angle.

Second, we should choose new discoveries and new creative topics in the field of science.

The second principle of choosing a topic is to choose a newly discovered and created topic in the scientific field. Every new discovery and creation will make the subject field enter a new stage and take a big step forward. So this kind of topic is very important and worth choosing and studying. Some new discoveries and innovations in disciplines, such as several undergraduate papers we just mentioned, such as Chinese and Japanese classical poetry and time, are not urgent problems to be solved. You don't have to write today or a few years later. But there are new discoveries and new perspectives. As a student of Chinese Department, you can give full play to your special skills in this respect. A student wrote the sublimation of personality consciousness-on the artistic characteristics of Yu prose from the perspective of personality. Another student commented on Bi Shumin. Reflection and exploration start with the aesthetic characteristics of Bi Shumin's art and analyze Bi Shumin's death appointment from the perspective of aesthetic poetics. These are all new angles and problems. There are also Demolition of Seven Pagodas —— A Study on the Language of New Criticism Poetry, From Peony Pavilion to the Last Two Dreams —— An Analysis of the Inheritance and Development of Tang Xianzu's Thought from 1598 to 160 1. These students find their own interesting topics in the process of learning. In the field of scientific research, he devoted himself to studying problems that others did not or rarely involved. There is also "everything except inner peace-a social survey of the psychological state of worshippers in Miaofeng Mountain". This is an investigation report, not necessarily an urgent problem, but it has certain reference function to sociology.

Third, choose a topic that can fill the blank.

The third principle is to choose a topic that can fill in the blanks. If scientific development is unbalanced, so will scientific research. As far as science is concerned, research is often unbalanced. Starting from the needs of scientific research and the overall situation of scientific development, all the gaps that are beneficial to social development and scientific development can be the objects of our topic selection, and we can study them to fill this gap.

This may provide more opportunities in the fields of natural science and social science. This is somewhat similar to an urgent problem.

The problems that need to be solved urgently may be platitudes or blank, and we need to study and explore them quickly. What is the cause of SARS now? If it can be studied, it will fill a gap in epidemiology. At the same time, this is also an urgent problem. To speed up the research, of course, we must follow the laws of actual research, and we must not violate the objective laws just because we want speed.

I think it is more difficult for students of Chinese department. Because it takes experience to fill in the blanks. Not only knowledge, but also a lot of rich experience. Therefore, it is enough for you to know the principle of selecting the topic of this paper. When you become a master's or doctor's degree in the future and do research to fill in the gaps, you may not be at a loss. This is the third topic selection principle.

Fourth, correct the unscientific concepts in the general theory.

The fourth topic selection principle is to correct the unscientific concepts in the general theory. This situation is very common in the field of literature. For example, classical literature seems to have been thoroughly studied, and you have nothing to study. In fact, if you think about it carefully, the research of later generations has its own foothold and limitations. You can see what kind of topics you can study in this crevice. In my reading appreciation comments, Mr. Guo Yuheng's On Ouyang Xiu was included. This article is to correct the general statement. The previous view has been recognized by everyone: Ouyang Xiu is a conservative, which is the final conclusion. Mr. Guo specializes in the history of ancient prose, and after in-depth and meticulous research in the process of studying the history of prose, he found that such a view was too unfair to Ouyang Xiu. He thinks that Ouyang Xiu is an open and aboveboard person who dares to say and scold, and is worthy of being an open scholar. He read through all the collected works and monographs of Ouyang Xiu, and found that Ouyang Xiu was not only a great writer who created a generation of ethos and influenced several generations, but also had outstanding achievements in poetry and prose, not only had unique views on the subset of classics and history, but also was a courageous and unyielding politician. After in-depth and meticulous research, Mr. Guo found that he is such a person. So he said that my views may be different from those of Ouyang Xiu in recent years. Because some writers who commented on the Northern Song Dynasty at the same time often took the attitude towards Wang Anshi's political reform as the criterion. At that time, everyone thought that Ouyang Xiu opposed Wang Anshi's political reform and immediately labeled Ouyang Xiu a conservative. Mr. Guo believes that this should not be the case, which has become a common view. Through this article, he proposed that he was not a conservative, but a reformer. The point of view is clear. The second point of view is that Ouyang Xiu "takes people by virtue and can write articles", which means that Ouyang Xiu is not only a politician, but also a good writer. This is evaluated from a literary point of view. The third angle is Ouyang Xiu's "Make the past serve the present". The fourth angle is "being a poet in my spare time". Said Ouyang Xiu was a great poet. After Mr. Guo's article came out, no one raised any objection, indicating that Mr. Guo's scientific evaluation was recognized. Then this is what we call the "revised general theory".

Fifth, make a supplement to the above as the goal of my topic selection.

1, the topic size must be moderate and the difficulty should be moderate.

Let me talk about the topic selection method of the fourth big question. Pay attention to two points: First, choose the topic. The size must be moderate and the difficulty should be moderate. Judging from the practice of writing undergraduate papers, there are two main situations that need attention: one is that the topic is relatively small. Because I have accumulated little information and narrow vision, in a sense, it is not enough to summarize what I have learned. So the topic is relatively small. Can't hold on to a small topic. Some academic papers are generally 3000 words, which are used for training. As soon as you choose a topic, choose a small one. If you choose 8000 words to 10000 words, the size should be moderate and the difficulty should be moderate. In other words, you should not choose the one that is particularly difficult. You can't help it. This is one aspect.

Another situation is that the topic is too big. When the topic is too big, the materials collected are generally very rich, and I feel that I have to say everything at once, so I choose a big topic. Of course, some students don't know what kind of topics are big and what kind of topics are small. I have a problem in my mind, which will pop up soon. Or he blindly collects materials when there is nothing wrong with his mind, which is more dangerous.

For example, a student wrote a topic called "WTO and Safety Work", which is too big to write a doctoral thesis. The WTO is a big gesture, and there is no time limit for secrecy work. Where should we start? If it is contemporary, then you should say that the contemporary secrecy work is in recent years. So I asked him to change the subject. Because he is a self-taught candidate, when his topic was given to me, even the topic, outline and thesis came out. They think it is enough to write a manuscript for the teacher. This is a big mistake. After you choose a topic, you must pay attention to communicate with the teacher first. The teacher has a good grasp of the size and difficulty of the topic. After that, you make an outline and then write a paper. Don't give it to the teacher after you finish it yourself. Finally, the paper was photographed by the teacher. Look at his outline: 1. The influence of China's entry into WTO on secrecy. 1, which impacts people's traditional concept of confidentiality; 2. Confidentiality management is more difficult; 3. Relevant confidentiality laws and regulations need to be improved; 4. Security technology faces more severe challenges; 5. The protection of trade secrets is more prominent; 6. The overall quality of secret cadres is not compatible with the task of secret work after China's entry into WTO. Second, China's accession to the WTO has provided new development opportunities for strengthening confidentiality. 1, China's accession to the WTO has provided conditions for the innovation of China's secrecy work theory and concept; 2. Joining WTO is an opportunity to improve the secrecy legal system; 3. The space for confidential work has been expanded; 4. Secrecy will play a more important role.

5. Confidentiality will play a greater role in ensuring the core and focus; 6, learn from the advanced experience of foreign security work. Three, after joining the WTO, the countermeasures and suggestions of safety work. I won't go into details, it's too comprehensive. When he communicated with me, I said that this was not a paper, but a big report made by a leader. It must have fifty or sixty thousand words. He said that he really wrote over 60,000 words. He can collect a lot of information, but none of the information he collects is his own original opinion. I talked to him several times and read his first draft, so after reading it, I suggested that he keep the topic down a little. After three revisions, it finally fell into the "Preliminary Study on the Administration of Confidential Work according to Law", completely focusing on how to administer according to law to talk about the current confidential work, and finally reached 1 0,000 words. There used to be many headlines. Now it has become three major problems: first, the problems existing in the management of confidential work according to law; Second, the benefits of administration according to law for confidentiality; Three, how to promote the confidentiality of administration according to law. This scope is narrowed, and there are two or four sub-topics under each major topic, with two or four breakthrough points. Be sure to pay attention in the future, think for yourself first, then communicate with the teacher and let the teacher show you whether the topic is appropriate. This is the first method.

2. Use inspiration to choose a topic.

The second method is to use inspiration to choose a topic. Some students just don't know how to choose the right topic. I'll tell you a process now.

Usually when you are in class, maybe a teacher has a great influence on you. For example, if you are interested in the Song Ci in the Tang and Song Dynasties in classical literature, you may wish to study it in depth to see which issues have been thoroughly studied by everyone, which ones I can cut into and from which angle to talk about my views. This is also a way to choose a topic. This way of choosing a topic must refer to a lot of materials, such as Song Ci. After reading a lot, I see that others have not thoroughly studied a certain problem, or I still have my own views. This is to open your mind and choose a topic in the process of reading a lot of materials and comments from others. I think this is an inspirational topic. Sometimes if you don't accumulate much, you will feel very confused and don't know what topic to choose. The teacher will talk to you at this time. During the conversation, you will find that you still seem to have some opinions on a certain field, a certain writer and a certain problem. Then the teacher will inspire you, let you read some books and make you think about some problems. In the process of reading, observing or thinking, you will find that I can go deeper from this angle. Consider the size and difficulty of the topic and choose the topic with your own inspirational thinking. Mainly pay attention to accumulation and thinking in peacetime. Without accumulation and thinking, it is difficult for you to choose a topic.
