全球竞争力:大学生需要的知识和技能就国家安全,环境的可持续发展以及经济发展而言,无论是国家的所为还是我们的日常生活都与境外政府,商业团体以及个人有着千丝万缕、错综复杂的联系。
这样的现实能帮助我们更加清楚地定义教育的职责:如何培养学生在联系紧密的世界中获得成功,让他们成为21世纪我们国家需要的公民,劳动者以及领导者。
对学校来说紧迫任务就是要培养真正了解世界的人才—了解不同地区的文化,了解不同地区的语言以及不同地区的经济、环境和社会体系运行方式。
经过仔细推敲和斟酌,我们在此处给出了全球竞争力的定义:全球竞争力是一种能够理解全球化的意义并能为之采取行动的能力和素养。
此概念清晰地诠释了21世纪学生需要的知识和技能。
探究世界。
具有全球竞争力首先须具有探究世界的意识,对世界充满好奇,有兴趣去认知世界并了解它如何运行。
具有这种能力的学生能够提出具有挑战性的问题,并能对这些可研究的问题进行探索—这些问题可能没有唯一的正确答案,但它却需要人们在知识上和情感上进行全面的投入。
他们提出的问题具有全球化的重要意义,所涉及的现象和事件,无论来自地方社区,还是来自世界其他地区,都是世界所关注的。
具有全球竞争力的学生能够表明他们所提出问题的重要性,知道如何在来自地方的,国内的以及国外的,可能源自不同语言的众多信息来源中判断、收集和分析可靠信息以回应这些问题(这句话还是有点绕,但不好修改)。
他们具有链接本地的和国际的能力,例如,能超越后院的打扫(这是什么意思啊?),从全球过程的角度解释学校开展的垃圾回收项目。
识别观点。
具有全球竞争力的学生需要意识到他们有别人认可或许不认可的独特见解。
他们要能够表达和解释其他人,其他团体和不同思想流派的观点,并能发现影响这些观点的各种因素,他们知道对知识,科技以及资源的不同获取途径是如何影响人们的观点的。
对他人观点的理解根植于他们对其他文化历史知识以及当今事件的谙熟。
他们能分析比较自己和别人观点的异同,如果需要他们会整合自己和别人的观点形成新的见解。

Morning, every one! I choose the first topic to show my opinions.Looking for a job is like commercial behavior, the employer is the buyer, and you are the seller. To attract buyers, in addition to professional skills inside, we should also learn how to show our best outside. Moreover, when you set foot in an interview room, the first impression that gives a person is your appearance. The interview time is so limited, perhaps only a few minutes, that you must seize every minute and second to leave a good first impression. The following is a part of my opinions:First dress properly. Consider the nature of the companies and the job you are applying for before you decide how to dress.If the company required uniforms, you are about to consider preparing a neat and easy suit.If it is a network company, casual is gonna be fine.But if you are applying for sale, public relations, market or advanced position, wearing dark or gray suit will be more appropriate, and of course, a few elegant decorations to dress up yourself will make it better.However, it doesn’t mean that only standard outfit is the best. The most mattered thing is to make sure that what you are wearing is tight close to the enterprise culture.Then, when we are ready for all of this, the following is to choose the route to the interview place, and especially pay attention to the traffic. If possible, you’d better run a trip yourself and observe the surrounding environment of the company.Finally, the most important is never to be late. In the interview, whatever it is, don't be late, and 10 minutes earlier to arrive is suggested.That’s all of my opinions about leaving a good first impression. Thank you! Undo:(Finally, it must pay attention to Action to natural, language properly. When the door active say hello, very relaxed naturally chaired, ren Any subtle movements, can reveal whether you self-confidence, is it open Must be confident in your ability, the right to introduce myself. Introduce yourself time and must Want to use very objective language, and try to get the maximum identity. It's not Are you exaggerate or modest, any exaggerated and modesty can make their own is introduced Flavor changed. Very calm introduced their advantage in where, your specialty is what can The. Through their own performance, is to be able to let the other side to you have a strong favorable. Especially when Your ability greatly exceed their expectations, they also can have a kind of feeling of unsanitary environment. Now you but in play a game of "there are ready to fight", how, whether to have the very big Confidence? The last and most important of all - "confidence" is a sharp weapon! Go, pass To cut will, win the good fight!)。
