Chapter 2446 Absurdity

He evened his breath, "What aspects did you consider when you asked these experts to learn mathematics well?"

Gu Weiman's smile deepened.

The reporter laughed embarrassedly at this, and he didn't know if he had said something wrong, "Actually, that..."

"Let the data speak."

"Ah?"

Gu Weiman shrugged his shoulders, "First of all, are there any professional evaluation standards for these experts to be called experts? Have they won authoritative awards, or have they published many professional papers in authoritative magazines? Or, as long as I can write articles and scold people, I can become an expert?"

"This is the premise of the entire proposition, and it is also the most basic data.

"Secondly, what is the essence of science? It is falsifiability. I have mentioned before that we need scientific criticism, which is more common and more widely spread by the media today. What belongs to the traditional literati's abuse. So should these experts' articles be scientific criticism or literati's abuse, which belongs to this meaningless emotional venting? The latter is not falsifiable, so two literati can curse each other for thousands of years and still cannot come up with a valid result. Today you say that my classmate's child has good grades, but he can't even wash dishes and has no hands-on ability at all. Tomorrow I say that my friend's child has good grades and is also a little inventor. Is this scientific? This is making friends out of nothing. "

"So for the so-called hands-on ability, we also need a more certain standard, which is more comprehensive, more scientific, and statistical. Give the results and publish them. This is a relatively scientific thing. Future generations can verify these data and build their own more comprehensive evaluation system on this basis. The data left before is also very meaningful for reference. "

"Finally, some people may not understand what I am saying. They may just think that my requirements are ridiculous. After all, in their eyes, it seems that scholars who study literature, study history, and study society have never studied mathematics. Then we have to give a relatively solidified standard. What is learning mathematics well in my mouth? Since learning mathematics well is conducive to more scientific research, what kind of mathematics level can support their research in their own field? Are the mathematical concepts I mentioned above, such as statistics, probability, etc., qualities that other scholars who study mathematics do not have? "

She smiled and said, "These are all high school mathematics, right? Could it be that almost all of these experts have never been to high school?"

The reporter was actually a little confused when he heard this, and only then did he react, "These experts have at least been to college, and the mathematics in college is basically enough to deal with these problems, not to mention graduate students and doctoral students with higher academic qualifications..."

He spoke more and more fluently, "If you want to get into college, your math scores must be relatively good. If you want to take the graduate exam, you need to pass the math. The country has already considered this when setting up the exam."

Gu Weimian nodded.

The reporter said again: "Since experts dare to call themselves experts, except for a few special ones, their education level must be above that of most ordinary people. "
