Information for Recommendation Letters

Information for Recommendation Letters

一般需要提供三位推荐人。其中应该有一到二位是申请人的任课老师、导师、系主任或院系领导。已经工作的申请人最好请你的上司写一篇推荐信。若能找到相关专业领域的学术权威或有国际知名度的教授(比如在国际性刊物上发表学术论文的人)担任推荐人,则会对申请有一定的帮助;但不必强求,如果推荐人不了解你,则即使写了推荐信也不能让对方学校的评审委员信服。推荐人必须和申请人有一定的接触,他/她可以从学术成绩、科研能力和潜力、性格、特长、语言能力等各个方面推荐申请人。每个推荐人只应该评论与申请人接触到的方面并稍作拓展,不太可能面面俱到。

注:

1. 若推荐人是海外老师或领导,请与其充分沟通,确保其可以按时自行写作并提交推荐信,确认无误的,表格中详细描述部分可省。

2. 提供素材时要从老师的角度出发考虑问题,而且要提供实际的事例。比如:你上课喜欢问问题,那这种方式是否促进了班级学习的积极性,辅助老师更好地教学,增强了学习效率?有没有印象特别深刻的事例,体现了你某方面的突出能力?你在课下是如何和老师联系的,探讨了哪些问题,让老师感受到了你怎样的学习态度,学习进展以及学习成果?成绩是班上最好的,除了学术成绩以外,你还有什么特别的优势或者素质呢?作为班上成绩最好的学生,你为老师,为同学,为班集体做了什么贡献,比如以你自己的方式影响了同学,提高了他们的学习积极性?或者对课程本身的理解,是通过哪些特殊的事情体现出来的?

Stephen L. Richards and Jennifer Bishop Jenkins: A Tale of Two States

A Tale of Two States

By Stephen L. Richards and Jennifer Bishop Jenkins
 This is a tale of two states. Let’s call them State A and State B.

 Both State A and State B have the death penalty.

 In State A, the anti-death penalty movement is strong, well-financed, and well-publicized.

 In State B, the anti-death penalty movement is initially weaker, poorer, and not so well-publicized.

In State A, an innocent man, fitted for his burial shroud, comes within hours of execution.

In State B, no innocent man ever comes close to execution.
