活动介绍
The Event
长期以来，留学被视为高考之外的另一条求学之路。随着中国经济的快速发展，留学成为越来越多有能力和意愿的家庭的选择，其中以美国为代表的西方高等教育体系成为众多中国学子的首选。与20年前以研究生、博士生为主的留学群体不同，大量的中国本科留学生不仅改变了美国高校的学生构成，也对中国家庭与社会构成了深层次的影响。
然而，留学究竟是一条捷径，还是充满了未知的挑战？推动中国学生留学的复杂因素究竟是什么？随着留学群体的低龄化，年轻的90后和00后在异国他乡会经历什么？他们的内心世界有着怎样的困惑与不安？《留学的孩子：雄心勃勃且忧心忡忡的一代人》（三联书店出版）一书，通过深入调研和访谈，还原了这代学子在留学历程中的体验与思考，填补了对这一群体的研究空白。
10月24日，《留学的孩子》一书作者雪城大学教授马颖毅、清华大学苏世民书院院长助理傅强、人大附中朝阳分校实验学校教师袁媛将来到耶鲁北京中心，共同探讨当下中国留学生的现状与遇到的问题，通过关注这一群体，更好地理解全球化背景下的人才流动和社会变迁，进而反观变化中的中国社会如何理解教育、理解未来。
Studying abroad has long been considered an alternative to China's traditional college entrance exam (Gaokao). As China's economy has grown rapidly, it has become a more popular option for families with the resources and interest. Western higher education systems, particularly in the United States, are now the top choice for many Chinese students. Unlike two decades ago, when most students going abroad were pursuing graduate degrees, the rise in undergraduate Chinese students has reshaped American university demographics and profoundly impacted Chinese families and society.
However, is studying abroad truly a shortcut, or does it come with unknown challenges? What complex factors drive Chinese students to seek education abroad? As this group becomes younger, what are the experiences of those born in the 1990s and 2000s as they navigate foreign environments? What uncertainties and anxieties do they face? Ambitious and Anxious: How Chinese College Students Succeed and Struggle in American Higher Education (Sanlian Publishing House) by Professor Yingyi Ma from Syracuse University explores these questions in-depth, shedding light on this generation through detailed research and interviews.
On Ocotober 24, Professor Yingyi Ma will be joined by Chad Futrell from Schwarzman College at Tsinghua University and Yuan Yuan from the Counseling Office at A Level Center of RCF Experimental School for a discussion on the current state and challenges faced by Chinese students studying abroad.
