Does anyone who has studied computer experience give some experience in learning computer?

When it comes to what computer knowledge to learn and how to learn it, opinions from all sides are really dazzling. Some people think that with the rapid development of computers, the knowledge they have learned at present will be out of date in a few years, so it is not too late to learn the basic operation of computers well, and then master those ever-changing technologies skillfully if you master them properly. Some people think that we should study computer as a subject like mathematics and Chinese, systematically master various basic principles and programming methods, and become computer experts like mathematicians and writers ... There are different opinions.

In order to solve the doubts of countless learners, this edition has newly opened a column "How to learn computers well". First, first-class experts in the field of computer education are invited to talk about their views, and then professionals in this field are invited to "sit in the classroom" in this column. Of course, heroes who have unique skills in computer learning are also welcome to show their unique skills in our column ... Come on, come on, let all those who love and learn computers meet in 2002.

How to learn computer well

Wu: Director of the Promotion Committee of China Computer Federation, leader of the China team of the International Information Olympics, and professor of the Department of Computer Science and Technology of Tsinghua University.

Years of practice show that learning "universal human intelligence tools" and mastering relevant computer knowledge and skills will be of great benefit to improving students' intelligence and ability and promoting their growth and success. So, how can students learn computer well? First of all, we should analyze the research object and discuss the research objectives. Different objects have different methods and different goals have different requirements. The computer has the following six unique functions:

1 is the most modern and advanced high-tech product;

2. It is a universal intellectual tool that everyone can use;

3. It is not only a machine that can be directly faced, but also a subject that can be devoted to research and exploration;

4. It can not only be pushed around, but also communicate with people and give them opinions and suggestions.

5. If connected to the Internet, it can also create a new global network culture atmosphere;

6. It develops rapidly. Whether it is hardware or software, new things emerge one after another, which makes people feel that they are constantly learning.

Facing this brand-new scientific and technological achievement and the disciplines it contains, we must have a unique and effective learning method.

Advocate self-study

For beginners, it is very important for the teacher to introduce the door, but it will depend on self-study in the future. Self-study ability is particularly important for computer learning, because computers are developing rapidly. Only by mastering self-study methods and having self-study ability can we cope with the ever-changing development situation of computers. Some people say: "self-study is easier said than done!" " I said that it may be difficult to study other subjects by myself, but computers are relatively easy. Why do you say that? Because computers are more and more "approachable", people can see and touch them. Those who can move people are eager to learn. For example, how old a doll dares to turn on the TV and tune the channel, and can control VCD. Aren't TV sets and VCD players high-tech products? As the learning object, computer has a unified theoretical knowledge and practical environment, and the learning content and progress can be mastered by itself. Most things that you can't understand by yourself can be solved by computer. So I say it's easy and convenient to learn by yourself. Of course, it would be better to have a tutorial book that is convenient for self-study

Emphasize hands-on

Computer science is too practical to learn without hands-on. Computers have been shrouded in mystery since the day they were born, and many monographs, such as "The Book of Heaven", make beginners daunting. But why can many children use computers so well? What's the trick? Do it! At the beginning, I will feel "so that's it" and "no big deal"! In this way, the more you learn, the easier it will be and the more interested you will be. The combination of hands and brains is the basic mode of computer learning, so it is natural to abandon the learning mode of rote memorization and "talking on paper" and form a lively learning atmosphere. Hands-on can also strengthen the excellent style of study of integrating theory with practice and cultivate the spirit of hard work.

Pay attention to application

In the process of learning computer knowledge and skills, we should think of "use" and "use" in study, work and life. As an intellectual tool and an extension of the human brain, computer helps us to think, demonstrate and make decisions, thus improving our ability to analyze and solve problems. The children who participated in the Informatics Olympics won the gold medal in international competitions because they applied what they had learned, deepened their understanding through "application" and turned computers into handy tools. People often say that "practice makes perfect" generally means learning to use general tools. Learning to use the computer as an intellectual tool is not only "practice makes perfect", but also "intelligence", which is conducive to developing intelligence. Computer is the crystallization of human wisdom, and it combines modern people's way of thinking and scientific methods. The process of commanding and helping computers through the human brain will make people smarter and more capable. In the new century, people with great wisdom and creativity must be people who can use computers to help them with their work.

Surfing on the internet

Computer education is not only a subject education, but also a cultural education. At present, tens of millions of computers distributed in five continents have been networked, forming a new cultural atmosphere. Whether you can use the Internet or not will become a new measure of modern people's cultural level. In the network culture atmosphere, the ability to obtain information, process information and exchange information is very important, which is also a basic ability of modern people. In a sense, "the network is the computer". It is very important to learn the knowledge and skills of the network. Anyone who does not fully realize the importance of this matter will regret it in the future. On the other hand, culture is not equal to civilization. There are many useful things on the internet, but there are also dross. How to distinguish useful information from useless information and the ability to distinguish fragrant flowers and poisonous weeds is also a basic ability of modern people. In the matter of surfing the Internet, it is not advisable to "give up eating because of choking", but it is necessary to "take precautions".

It has become an axiom that computer popularization should start with dolls. Parents, teachers, schools and society have all paid great attention to children's computer education. At this time, NIT for children appeared, which immediately aroused a warm response from the society. The consultation telephone number of the examination center of the Ministry of Education is uninterrupted all day, and 28 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions have undertaken it. So, what is NIT for children?

NIT is the abbreviation of the national computer application technology certificate examination, and now it is going to be extended to children, so it is called children NIT. What is the use of this certificate for children? Maybe someone will fly into a rage: "Why use exams to destroy young hearts?" Wait a minute, isn't there a test grade for playing the piano? No one said it was destroying children. The reason is that these children have musical cells and enjoy it. If a child has no musical talent and his parents force him to play the piano without cursing or playing, it is really devastating. In fact, examination is not equal to exam-oriented education, and the "only success, not failure" of children's NIT examination has nothing to do with destruction. It focuses on computer training, learning while learning, and is a sharp weapon to promote quality education.

Most children will like computers, which is determined by the characteristics of computers. Children's childlike innocence is curious, curious, studious, fun, active, competitive and competitive, and colorful computer software can just satisfy children's various desires. Give these mental AIDS to children as soon as possible, and they will benefit for life. As long as children have a hobby, they can like computers through this hobby. Those who like Chinese can be used to write articles, those who like arithmetic can be used to solve problems, those who like art can be used to draw pictures, and those who like music can be used to compose music. They can like computers in different ways. So, will some children not like computers anyway? I will. But what does it matter? This kind of children will not exceed 5%, and I am afraid they need special ways to care for them.

Now, NIT for children has launched ten modules: operation basis, words, tables, drawing, surfing the Internet, music, animation, programming, multimedia and database. Each module includes process training, job design and computer examination. Anyone who has obtained three module certificates can apply for NIT children's bronze award certificate; Those who have obtained Grade 6 can apply for a silver medal certificate; Ten winners can apply for a gold medal certificate. These certificates will surely become a solid step towards informationization and digitalization, and lay a solid foundation for them to become builders of the new century.

With the development of social economy, people are changing their views. Some leaders said: "If we slow down the speed of popularizing computers in backward areas, it will widen the gap with advanced areas and make education more unfair"; Some parents said: "I want to learn computer with my children", "Buy early and buy late, and buy on demand. Low-end, high-end, just use it together "; A teacher said: "Since ancient times, heroes have been teenagers, and many children are good at computer and other homework."

The arrival of the new century will make computers and networks an indispensable source of information in our lives. "The sea is wide and the fish jumps, and the sky is high and birds fly." The time is coming when children in China have been swimming in the sea of information since childhood.

How old did you start learning computer?

Lv Pin: Member of the National Committee for Examination and Approval of Computer Textbooks for Primary and Secondary Schools, Vice President of Beijing Informatics Olympic School, and Director of Computer Room of Xicheng District Audio-visual Education Center in Beijing.

This seems simple, but in fact it is very complicated. The so-called simplicity means that it seems that you can answer with only one number: 6 years old, 10 years old or 12 years old. It is complicated because the word "learning" can have different understandings and different levels. Do you want to learn computer technology or professional knowledge? Is it learning operation or learning application? Should we just make friends with computers or master them? Different levels, different requirements and different answers. For most people, learning computers is not to become computer experts, but to apply what they have learned. Therefore, I only talk about my own views on this learning level.

Learning the particularity of computers

Computer is a high-tech product, its internal structure, working principle and hardware manufacturing technology are extremely complicated, and it is a scientific ivory tower. But it is so convenient and simple to use. It is much easier to learn the basic operation of computer than to learn to drive or learn a subject. This is unmatched by other machines. Now some so-called automatic washing machines, cameras and other machines are easy to use because they are equipped with "microcomputers".

Because of the particularity of learning computer, there are many levels of learning computer from primary to advanced. This is the same as photography. You can learn primary photography with a "fool camera" and advanced photography with a professional camera and rich professional knowledge.

From the perspective of popularization, there are several levels: making friends with computers, using computers to help students study, learning basic operation skills, learning computer use, learning computer applications, and learning some basic computer knowledge.

Children can "use computers"

China has popularized computer knowledge for nearly 20 years. After 20 years of working experience, many people think that they can contact computers and "make friends with computers" from the age of three and a half. Children aged 3-7 are in infancy; Physiologically, at this stage, children's hand movements begin to coordinate, they can press buttons and use the mouse. So you can also do some computer operations, which has been proved in several kindergartens.

For example, Beihai Kindergarten and Ministry of Railways Kindergarten in Beijing have started computer activities. The above facts show that there is no age limit for learning computer. As long as you have hands-on ability, you can make friends with computers.

According to work experience, we should pay attention to the following points in popularizing computers among children.

One is to use computers to learn computers, which means that computers are mainly used as tools to develop children's intelligence. In use, children like computers, are willing to make friends with computers, and learn some necessary computer operation skills and knowledge imperceptibly.

The second is the game. Chen Heqin, a famous educator in China, once said: "Children are active and regard games as life." The main activity in children's stage is games, and children's computers must also be in the form of games in order to achieve good results.

Third, in order to protect children's physical and mental health, especially their eyesight, the time in front of the computer should not exceed 15 minutes at most.

As long as we pay attention to the above points, computers can become children's "good friends". Can develop their intelligence and the ability to use their hands and brains, and develop their right brain function.

Want to know how to learn computer well? Look at my method today!

I am a person who is still in contact with computers in college. Before I went to college, all I knew was chatting online. To tell you the truth, I have no intention of going to college. If it weren't for my mother, I don't know where I would be. I will repay my mother well.

In fact, the computer is not a mysterious thing. As long as you touch it and dissect it deeply, you will naturally know a lot of secrets about computers. I study computer in college, so you will definitely ask me, and you will definitely learn a lot of computers. In fact, I really feel inferior. Most of my classmates are vocational high schools, and some of me are ordinary high schools. They are better than us. In ordinary high schools, I am the most frustrated and humiliated. So I made up my mind to keep up, so I used the following methods, which are not practical for everyone:

1: Read more books. You should regard books as your biological parents. You must read them every day, and then you must rely on them. The main thing is you can't do it without him. Think about it. If you don't read them, the foundation will be fine. Means growing up with us. Anyway, it's gradual. Take your time.

Just be interested in computers, otherwise you won't study hard. If you are interested, it is easy to say, for example, I am. There are many computer magazines in buy buy, and of course there are also hacker magazines. I have to buy them every month. Even if I am poor, I still sell pants! Alas, life is pressing.

This is the most important point. It is good to practice and surf the Internet frequently, but it is valuable to do something useful. What's the use? Just apply what you have learned to yourself, so that you will find what you have learned useful, right? Then you will learn more.

4: It's up to you. Computers are unfathomable. You must keep up with the times. Why didn't you tell me? You should know for yourself! To quote Song Zu Ying's words, "We have entered a new era", our line is moving towards a new era every day, and life is not easy!
