On December 6th, a thesis writing instruction lecture on the theme of "what professors might not teach you these years -- how to write a paper" was held by the student development center in student affairs department on the first floor of Bei Yue bookstore at 2pm. The chair invited Ye Qingna, the director of the editorial department of education and economy in the education school, to deliver a speech and was presided over by Liu Feng, an instructor of the center for learning and development of college students.
12月6日下午2点，学生工作部大学生学生发展中心在倍阅书店一楼举行了主题为“这些年，教授可能不会教你的——如何写论文”的论文写作指导讲座。该讲座邀请教育学院《教育与经济》编辑部主任叶庆娜老师作主讲，由大学生学习发展中心指导老师刘枫主持。
Ye Qingna unfolded the lecture from "the reasons for writing a paper", "what to write in a paper" to "how to carry out a literature work" and "how to write a paper". Miss. Ye introduced the theme of "why to write a paper" by asking questions. At the same time, with the help of memes and Internet jokes, she also illustrated the importance of papers humorously. As for the second part, in fact, what to write is to determine the topic of your paper. Miss Ye vividly compared different topics as "popular lover", "arranged marriage" and "object of desire" so that we could have a better understanding of this topic. Secondly, working on the literature was the most important way to write a good paper. Miss Ye showed the students how to use the electronic database resources purchased by the library as well as demonstrated the way to using the advanced retrieval function in the How Net. In the end, she also shared her own methods of making electronic document extract cards, which pointed out the direction for students to imitate predecessors and accumulate experience. Retrieval, reading as well as writing are not isolated. Miss Ye especially stressed to everyone that” you should retrieve, while reading together with writing”. Only in this way, can you write a high-quality paper.
叶庆娜老师分别从“为什么要写论文”，“写论文写什么”，“如何进行文献工作”和“如何写论文”四个部分为在场学生讲解。叶老师通过提问的方式引出“为什么而写论文”的主题，并辅以表情包、网络段子，幽默风趣地阐述了论文重要性。写什么实际上就是确定选题，叶老师把不同的选题形象地比喻为“大众情人”、“包办婚姻”和“心仪对象”，让大家对选题有了更加生动的认识。其次在文献上下功夫亦是写好论文的必经之路。叶老师详细地展示了如何使用图书馆的购买的电子数据库资源，并为大家示范如何使用知网的高级检索功能。最后她还分享了自己制作电子文献摘录卡的方法，为同学们模仿前人、积累经验指明方向。检索、阅读、写作并不孤立，叶老师特别向大家强调，“一边检索，一边阅读，一边写作”方能写成一篇优质的论文。
After the foreshadowing of these three parts that were about motivation, topic selection and literature, the content of "how to write a good paper" was formally launched. Miss. Ye succinctly listed the six essential structural elements of a paper -- title, abstract, key words, introduction, literature review, references. She also gave detailed explanations respectively. "A good topic makes a half-good article." Miss Ye first stressed the importance of the article title. Title was the” advertising" of the paper. Whether readers were willing to accept this paper greatly depended on the "advertising". Most importantly, focus and conciseness were the necessary characteristics of an excellent title. Expect for these, she explained to students with examples that a really good title should have some bright spots which are original and not stereotyped, unique as well as absorbing. Abstract was a bridge connecting authors, editors as well as readers. At the end of the sharing, Miss Ye also put forward professional suggestions on key words, introduction, literature review and references.
经过动机、选题、文献三部分的铺垫，“如何写好一篇论文”的内容正式展开。叶老师精简地列出一篇论文所必不可少的六大结构性要素——题目、摘要、关键词、引言、文献综述、参考文献，并做出详细解释。“题好一半文”，叶老师首先强调了文章标题的重要性。标题就是论文的“广告代言”，如何让读者心甘情愿地接受论文，就看“广告”做得好不好，文题聚焦和言简意赅是标题必要的特点。她还通过举例方式向同学们说明了真正好的标题要具备不落窠臼、先声夺人、引人入胜等亮点。摘要是连接作者、编辑、读者之间的桥梁。分享的最后，叶老师还提出了有关关键词、引言、文献综述和参考文献的专业建议。
When the lecture session was over, students were free to ask Miss Ye questions. In the face of one student's confusion over the boundaries of citation and plagiarism, Miss. Ye explained that it was OK to borrow the strengths from others in terms of framework and ideas, but it was also important to pay special attention when referring to specific content. Regardless of the "big" questions about academic trends or the "small" questions about how to find journals, Miss Ye patiently answered all of these questions. Atmosphere of the scene was lively.
讲授环节结束后，同学们自由地向老师提出问题。面对一位同学对引用和抄袭界限的困惑，叶老师向其说明借用其他人在框架和思路方面的优点是没有问题的，但参考具体内容时还是要格外注意。不论是关于学术动向的“大”问题，还是针对如何查找期刊的“小”问题，叶老师都耐心解答，现场问答气氛活跃。
The host expressed his thanks to Miss Ye and announced the successful conclusion of the activity. Xing Jiayi, from the school of mathematics and statistics of 2018, who had been listening attentively, said, "I had a lot of doubts about writing papers before. Thanks to the lecture held by Miss Ye, she really helped me. It was a rewarding trip."
主持人表达了对叶庆娜老师的感谢后，宣布本次活动圆满结束。一直在现场专心听讲的2018级数学与统计学学院邢佳仪表示：“在此之前自己存在很多写论文的疑惑，今天叶老师的讲座真的给我带来很大的帮助，真是不虚此行。”
