I went to school in a small village in Anhui,and now I am studying at USST in Shanghai.Passing from one to the other you have to get used to many new things,not the least being the different way of learning. At school I found my timetable full throughout the day.One lesson came close on the heels of another with little time to call one's own.At university,in contrast,only a few hours of each day are taken up with classes or lectures.In the time make available you are expected to learn on your own .When and where is up to you .At the same time what you meant to lwarn shifts from memorizing masses of facts to developing an ability to understand theories and present arguments.There are,of course,still facts to be learned.One should not exaggerate the defferences.Nevertheless,learning at university certainly teaches me greater self-reliance and to think for myself.
