"This is a new mission, which is a bit surprising." Xu Yun temporarily stopped his movements on the podium and lowered his gaze to the light screen panel in front of him, thinking to himself.
Based on his previous experience, it is difficult to generate new tasks in subjects that he has completely mastered.
Mathematics is naturally included.
The new tasks generated in the past few times were only triggered when he came into contact with new areas.
This time, it was really unexpected that a new task appeared during just the lecture.
But this was a good thing for him. His thoughts stayed here and he carefully checked the mission content without thinking too much.
——
Mission: Teaching and educating people
Requirements: A total of thirty courses must be completed, and the number of students attending each class should not be less than 200.
Progress: 1/30
Reward: 150 points. Awarded twice randomly.
——
Advanced tasks: Guide students to publish a total of ten SCI papers and complete the acquisition of new material synthesis technology. (Bachelor degree only, students being instructed must complete at least 20 courses.)
As the information on the light screen caught his eye, Xu Yun's mind suddenly became active.
"It seems that I need to increase the number of course sessions, but it's true that I haven't written a paper for a while."
His original plan was to have two classes per week, but according to the task requirements, it would take almost four months. This speed of completing the task was obviously a bit slow.
The best way is to increase the number of lessons per week.
Anyway, I have nothing else to do at this stage, so I can be a university professor with peace of mind.
I believe that the school would be extremely happy if they learned that he was going to increase his weekly classes.
But for the advanced mission that appeared this time, he seemed to frown slightly. I'm afraid it would not be too easy to complete it smoothly.
Not everyone is as talented in mathematics as he is. Normally, the first paper most undergraduates write is their graduation thesis.
Very few people can develop SCI.
Although he has not written a paper for a while, he can rely on his own experience and knowledge to guide a few outstanding students to publish SCI academic papers without much problem. The key is to make them insist on attending his class, otherwise they will not meet the task conditions. It's no use either.
After thinking about the mission, Xu Yun focused on the rewards of this mission.
First of all, points and random rewards are familiar, and they are universal rewards.
The new material synthesis technology for key advanced tasks is very attractive. Although the specific direction of the material cannot be determined for the time being, this material will definitely be a global leader.
Maybe it is another new material that is as valuable as plastic fluorocarbon polymers.
It seemed that Xu Yun had thought about so many issues, but in the eyes of the students listening in the audience, his movements only paused for a moment.
Didn't feel surprised.
In the following time, Xu Yun continued with the content of the course, leaving the tasks and rewards behind for the time being. It was not until 12 o'clock in the afternoon when get out of class was about to end that Xu Yun smiled and started talking about business.
"Thank you for everyone's cooperation to make this class come to a successful conclusion. In order to repay everyone's love and support, I have decided to increase the class to five classes per week, that is, one class per day."
"Is everyone happy?"
"But I hope to see you all again tomorrow, but don't even think about skipping class secretly."
"I will call them by name then."
When the bell rang for the end of get out of class, everyone was thinking about asking for autographs and photos later. However, after hearing Xu Yun's words, everyone was dumbfounded and wondered if they had heard wrong.
"what's the situation?"
"Will you come to class every day from now on?"
"Still calling names?"
There were so many people coming to attend the class today, and many of them came just to join in the fun because of Xu Yun's fame, and did not really want to learn mathematics and improve their mathematics skills.
After all, this is the first time Xu Yun has held an open mathematics class in school since he became a professor.
But if the frequency of classes is increased to five per week, the number of people who are still willing to take classes will definitely drop significantly.
Originally, this kind of course was not compulsory. It was entirely voluntary to attend the lectures on time.
But now Xu Yun asked for names, which suddenly gave people the illusion that they were unfortunately on board a pirate ship.
You must know that with Xu Yun's status in the school, no one will doubt what he said. If he is really called and recorded as absent from class, it will be completely normal for him to fail the course and fail to graduate.
Almost as soon as Xu Yun finished speaking, there was a burst of wailing in the classroom.
"Professor Xu doesn't want it!"
"I just came here to get an autograph. It's really hard to go to class on time every day."
"The other departments should be fine."
"Professor Xu, you have changed. I thought that as a peer, Professor Xu would be different from other old professors in the school. I didn't expect that he would also use the trump card of naming names."
However, most of the students who hold such views are those from other departments who have followed suit and come to join in the fun.
People who really want to improve their math skills are supportive.
He seemed very excited.
"Will there be classes every week except holidays and weekends? That's great."
“It’s easy to understand and understand things that I didn’t understand before after listening to Professor Xu’s class.”
"I will definitely attend classes on time."
"If mathematics students from other universities hear this news, they will probably think of ways to come to Jingzhou to take classes frequently. It's really worth attending this class today."
On the podium, Xu Yun listened to everyone's different opinions and always kept a faint smile on his face.
Then another bombshell was dropped.
"In addition, students who attend classes on time can come to me for guidance on their thesis. Those who have ideas for writing papers are also welcome to communicate with me."
It will undoubtedly be much smoother for students to write papers under the guidance of professors, not to mention Xu Yun, a top figure in the mathematics world.
Normally there is no such opportunity.
Nowadays, as long as you attend classes on time, you can ask for advice on papers. This kind of good thing is definitely difficult to find even with a lantern.
If you can successfully publish an SCI article, it will play a very important role in helping your academic career and direct postgraduate entrance examinations.
This makes many junior and senior students eager to give it a try, and they have the idea of writing a thesis in their minds.
"With Professor Xu's guidance, it should be easy to publish an SCI article. What are you waiting for? Go back to the topic and choose a direction."
"I wonder if Professor Xu will provide guidance on the graduation thesis?"
"Looks like I have to try writing a paper."
"I love Professor Xu so much. This benefit will probably make others cry with envy."
Seeing that everyone's emotions were completely aroused, Xu Yun was secretly happy.
The reason why he did this was to cast a wide net, so that as long as he found a few talented students to guide him, it would be very easy to complete ten SCI papers.
Although it is a laborious task to supervise so many students' papers, it is worth it to get the task reward successfully.
Besides, this is what he should do as a professor.
When we arrived at the meal time, everyone did not stay in the professor for too long, and then got up and left one after another.
Some bold students went over to take photos and ask for autographs.
Xu Yun is quite affectionate towards these students who are almost the same age as him. He is very cooperative whether signing autographs or taking photos. In the process, he often asks them to continue to attend the class tomorrow.
Of course, the roll call was just a talk. After all, undergraduate students had their own professional courses and it was impossible to attend his classes on time every day.
All he wants is for more people to be able to clock in for twenty classes.
After all, with his prestige in the mathematics community, if the number of people attending the lectures is not enough, he can still recruit people from other universities. It is absolutely guaranteed that the number of people attending each class will exceed 200.
When there were not many students left in the classroom, Xu Yun was seen walking down from the podium.
Finally he stopped in front of three girls.
Slightly leaning over and staring at the three of them, he said in a deep voice: "The three of you will not be able to miss even one of my classes from now on, and each of you will have to publish an SCI paper."
Today Shen Meng was dragged over by her roommate Han Xiaoya, just to join in the fun.
I didn't expect to be targeted by Xu Yun. He had to come here every day to attend classes, and he was given an extra paper assignment for no apparent reason. His eyes suddenly lost light.
Hearing this, he quickly explained: "Professor Xu, I came with Xiaoya to listen to your lecture. It's really not good for writing a thesis."
"It's okay, I'll teach you how to write." Xu Yun kept smiling.
Meng Songyan's daughter Meng Qingwen, who had just come to school with Han Xiaoya six months ago, also echoed.
"Teacher Xu."
"I'm only a freshman, so I don't need to write a paper, right?"
"I am the freshman who published the paper, you can do it." Xu Yun fed Meng Qingwen a sip of chicken soup.
Han Xiaoya and Shen Meng have a good foundation. They participated in the Higher Education Society Cup Mathematical Modeling last year and won the National Award. Guiding them to write papers will undoubtedly have a high probability of successful publication. This is equivalent to determining the tasks of two SCI papers in advance. .
After all, only by making two preparations can you be more confident and ensure that the advanced tasks can be successfully completed.
As for Meng Qingwen, who is just in her first semester of college, her students will naturally meet her strict requirements, and maybe she will be able to give him a nice surprise by then.
Compared to Shen Meng and Meng Qingwen who were a little downcast, Han Xiaoya obviously did not regard this matter as a difficulty.
He raised his little fist and answered confidently: "I plan to publish a paper without you having to tell me."
This was naturally Zhenghe Xu Yun's intention. The smile on his face suddenly became brighter and he reminded him again: "I believe you will be able to publish a paper. If you have any difficulties, please come to my office for advice at any time." After speaking, he looked at Shen next to him. Meng and Meng Qingwen added, "You two too."
After finishing the course and thesis matters, Xu Yun went to the restaurant to write the thesis very relaxedly.
If nothing else, the ten papers should be completed quickly. After all, there are no restrictions on the journals to which papers can be submitted.
At that time, he only needs to wait for these students' papers to be accepted by the journal before he can receive the task reward.
For this reason, he is also ready to guide students' papers at any time, which is more and more in line with his status as a professor.
In this way, for more than a month, Xu Yun held five classes every week, and the number of people attending each class in the classroom exceeded 200.
At the end, most of them were students from the Department of Mathematics, and many of them gradually became familiar.
