Investigation on Wenzhou students' intention to study abroad: Many people love Singapore.

Investigation on Wenzhou students' intention to study abroad: Many people love Singapore liuxue86.com02 reported on February 7th. Wenzhou Business Daily reported that Wenzhou Business Daily's Study Abroad (Weibo) Immigrants (Weibo) Studio and Wenzhou Study Abroad Alliance Network jointly released a 20 13 survey report on Wenzhou students' intention to study abroad. The first choice for Wenzhou students to study abroad is the United States, followed by Britain, Singapore, Canada and Australia. The chosen majors are business and finance, followed by computer, education and philosophy.

For the growing group of international students in Wenzhou, what factors make students or parents choose to study abroad, which countries do they like to go to and what majors do they choose? In response to these contents, the Overseas Immigrants Studio of Wenzhou Business Daily and Wenzhou Overseas Students Alliance Network launched a two-month questionnaire survey from 2012 1 1 0/0/0/0/. In four middle schools in our city, more than 20 topics have been set up, with parents or students themselves as the survey objects, through newspaper questionnaires, written questionnaires, telephone questionnaires and so on.

Many students like Singapore. What they didn't expect was that 1 1.4% students in this questionnaire chose to study in Singapore. The reporter paid a return visit to three students who preferred Singapore. They have all been to Singapore, and they all agree that Singapore has a strict legal system, social stability and personal safety.

It can be seen that many school shootings in the United States have made many students shudder.

Fan told reporters that a short story she heard when she went to Singapore the year before last made her appreciate Singapore very much. It is said that a few years ago, an American youth was whipped for breaking the law in Singapore. Under the mediation of the President of the United States, Singapore still resisted the pressure and persisted in its implementation. It can be seen that Singapore is basically a country ruled by law, and the severe punishment also ensures the safety of studying abroad. Moreover, the aging of Singapore will increase the intensity of attracting talents. Of course, there will be great opportunities to stay and work in Singapore after graduation.

Highlighting a single item can become a talent.

Parents who think that foreign teaching mode is good account for 3 1.25% of the respondents. Teacher Li, a parent who is engaged in education, said in an interview that the main reason for sending children abroad to study is to emphasize that doing is more important than saying, and exams only account for 35%. Unlike China, if you don't play well, you will miss it. What we ask is that we should learn every subject well. If you fail a subject, you will not be admitted to a good school, and students will be under great pressure. Our domestic schools pursue "all-rounder", while foreign countries highlight personal advantages. No matter how bad a person's comprehensive performance is, one will win. In fact, individual champions are excellent talents.

The number of people who choose to go abroad for high school will increase greatly.

In the questionnaire about whether children plan to go abroad to study in high school, the lowest proportion is 2.48%, and the highest is 7. 14%. It can be seen that the trend of studying abroad is younger.

Teacher Xiao Chi, a senior international education expert in Wenzhou, a member of the American Association of International Educators, a member of the National Association of American University Admissions and an admissions officer at Indiana Institute of Technology, said that there were at least 60 Wenzhou students who went to the United States for high school last year, and the trend of "younger age" in studying abroad was becoming more and more obvious in Wenzhou. Mainly because Wenzhou people have a complex of famous schools, attending high school in the United States is helpful to apply for the top 50 famous schools in the United States.

Professor Chen Ang, a doctoral student from the United States, once told reporters that his daughter was studying in the United States because of her high school stage. Her undergraduate application was accepted by three universities, Harvard, Stanford and Columbia, and she finally completed her studies at Harvard University.

Public welfare lectures abroad are very popular.

According to the questionnaire data, 57. 1% of the respondents are willing to participate in public lectures or activities organized by business newspapers or related institutions. Parents surnamed Zhu told reporters that attending more expert lectures can broaden their horizons, especially the special lectures of international education experts and embassy and consulate officials invited by Business Daily, and they can learn about some little-known contents of foreign education and the specific requirements of visas.

It is understood that since June last year, Business Daily has planned to invite 100 overseas study experts to give lectures in Wenzhou. At present, Dr. Professor Peng Tiecheng, a famous American language teaching expert, dean of the TOEFL Research Institute of New Channel, and Pan, Vice Consul of the Visa Office of the Australian Consulate in Shanghai, have been invited to give a lecture on 1 1, which has benefited more than 2,000 students and their parents.

Making mistakes in the college entrance examination has accelerated the growth of studying abroad.

The explosive trend of middle school students studying abroad can also be confirmed by the phenomenon of giving up the College Entrance Examination (Weibo). According to the data released by the Ministry of Education, from 2009 to 20 12, the total number of high school graduates who gave up the college entrance examination in China has exceeded 3 million. Among them, 2 1. 1% chose to abandon the exam because of studying abroad, and the growth trend of high school graduates studying directly in foreign universities is accelerating.

According to expert analysis, there were 65,590 college entrance examination candidates in Wenzhou in 2065, 438+02. Among 1 10,000 candidates who didn't get good grades, about 4,000 people have the idea of studying abroad. (Reporter: Liu Muzhen Intern: Pan Wei)
