The unpopular content of university websites is boring, rigid in form, similar in model, unattractive and chaotic in management.

In this survey, more than half of the respondents expounded their views and opinions on the Internet and the success of college students, the education of college students' netizens, and the construction of network positions in colleges and universities. The main points are as follows:

Most college students can appreciate the two sides of the network. For the double-edged sword of the network, they think that we should make full use of its strengths and avoid its weaknesses. Some students wrote: although the online world is illusory, it is also a part of the real world. Although network behavior is not standardized, it is also a reflection of real behavior; The Internet is neither heaven nor hell. There are bright sunshine and dark corners on the internet. As long as people look at the Internet with a normal heart, the Internet will show fascinating brilliance after it is unveiled!

Many people believe that as college students in the new century, the education they receive should not only be some concepts in books, but also accept new things and new information, and the network is the representative of new things. When the internet comes, it can't be stopped, which is the inevitable development of the times. We should keep up with the times through the Internet. Therefore, a college student who can't master or use network resources well is not a qualified college student.

Many college students hope that the school can offer special courses on the utilization of network resources to guide them to make rational use of network resources. Help students set up personal homepage, learn relevant popular software and improve their online skills. College students are very dissatisfied with the present situation of most university websites, and think that their contents are boring, their forms are dull, their models are similar, they are unattractive and their management is chaotic. They believe that university websites should be student-oriented, serve students and establish their own brand image. To build a good university website, first of all, we should pay attention to the coverage of major science and technology, news and current affairs, social focus and hot spots at home and abroad; Secondly, in combination with students' learning process, we should set up a learning Q&A column on the website to introduce the learning methods of the course, and some teachers will analyze and expound academic problems or publish high-level academic papers online; Timely release all kinds of information such as study and postgraduate entrance examination. , so that every student can make instant inquiries through registered users and communicate with teachers or others; Third, set up a psychological counseling column to help students solve difficult problems in their growth. Fourthly, the websites of colleges and universities should have different viewpoints, so that students can participate in expressing their thoughts and opinions and communicate through the network; Give students more opportunities to speak freely, and you can directly reflect your feelings to the principal. Finally, strengthen the management of message boards and BBS. After all, the campus is a pure land, and the university network should be different from the public BBS, and the development of campus network civilization should be advocated. In short, the university website should be built into a smooth bridge between students, students and teachers, students and schools, and schools and schools.
