Research on Learning Enthusiasm of College Students in China

Abstract

The learning enthusiasm of college students is related to their learning efficiency, their knowledge and skills mastery, and the formation and development of their good psychological quality and moral quality. Analyzing the influencing factors of the learning enthusiasm of college students is of great practical significance to fully mobilize the learning enthusiasm of college students and improve the quality of university teaching. In recent years, many scholars have conducted research on the learning enthusiasm of college students, but no literature summarizes and composes this aspect. We use the method of literature research to review and organize the literature related to the learning enthusiasm of college students and draw the following conclusions: (1) At present, scholars' research on the learning enthusiasm of college students mainly contains three aspects, which are the current situation of learning enthusiasm of college students, the influencing factors of learning enthusiasm of college students, and the suggestions and strategies to improve learning enthusiasm of college students. (2) As for the influencing factors, the conclusions obtained from the existing literature are generally broad and wide, but the major influencing factors are not founded now. (3) Most of the scholars have given the influencing factors by literature analysis and discursive methods without the support of realistic survey data, and no scholars have yet analyzed the relationship between the influencing factors and the degree of learning enthusiasm of each sample, so the reliability of the conclusions needs to be further improved. (4) The existing studies are carried out for a broad group of college students, but the research on the enthusiasm of mathematics majors in their major courses is still blank. In addition, scholars have given suggestions and countermeasures mainly involving four aspects--school, society, family, and students themselves, but the shortcoming is that most of the suggestions and strategies are rather broad and general, lacking relevance to mathematics majors.
