我的教材都从哪儿来
李雅帅(北京大学马克思主义学院本科四年级学生):今年共开设了6门课,每人选择2门。其中4门课有指定教材,2门课的教材由院里统一购买,另外2门课则由老师统一复印。因为尚未拿到图书,所以还不知道定价。自己主要是在课前预习时使用教材,课后则更多参看老师的课件,特别是在复习准备考试时。根据教材的不同,对教材内容的精读率在20%~50%之间。为了帮助我们节省开支,老师通常只会要求我们购买那些非常重要、使用率很高的教材;对于其他教材,则建议我们根据他的课件和自己的学习需要从图书馆借阅。如...

专业课教辅流行“笔记”书
新一轮的教材、教辅征订在即,在众多高校教辅的同步辅导、配套练习中,一些新面孔尤为打眼,其中要数中国石化出版社的一套根据中外知名经济、管理、教育和心理类教材编写的四十本“笔记和课后习题详解(国内外经典教材习题详解系列)”最为典型。而此外,医学类专业课辅导书也有一两例采用了这种“笔记”的编写方式,为诸多形式单一、雷同的题海式辅导书增添了一抹亮色。 可以说,目前我国各大院校把国内外通用的权威教科书作为本科生和研究生学习专业课程的参考教材的不在少数,但系统整理出版配套的“笔记式”辅导...

我的教材都从哪儿来
久来迎(中国矿业大学电信学院大一新生):交了第一学期的教材费才知道,原来教材完全可以自行购买,学校并没有强制学生购买的权利,可事先大家并不知情,直到发了教材,无意中去学校旁边的书店逛才知道。后来再一打听,如果我的新书从学校旁边的书店买,就变成了8折,如果买师兄们的二手书就更便宜。如果这样,明年的教材我肯定从书店买。 至于师兄们的二手书,我想,如果有价值的书,谁都不会卖的,只有一些无关紧要的书才会卖。我们上课的时候,老师也会指定辅导书,也就是课余的时候看,去图书馆借就够了。像我...

经销商眼中的大学
中国科技大学校园风景 ■吕 凯(麦格劳-希尔教育出版公司北京代表处高等教育部经理) 上世纪90年代后期几家国际上领先的教育出版社在国内陆续开办代表处,并设置了院校代表的岗位,主要职责就是面对面向大学教师进行教材的推介。业务开展之初,工作模式基本上是遵照欧美院校营销的“条例”。当时我作为院校代表的一员,深切感受到我们的工作方式与大部分老师选择教材的习惯有着明显的错位:当时老师们主要是从教材目录或书店了解教材信息,对出版社的业务人员上门介绍教材感觉很突兀,甚至将我们当作不受欢迎的...
