What are the reasons for the phenomenon of hard to find universities for the elderly?

Many elderly people have retired from work, but they still have good physical energy, and they want to use their spare heat to enrich their retirement life.

After the elderly retire, they suddenly find that there is no job, and life will become very blank, and some elderly people want to learn in old age, so the university for the elderly is naturally a good place.

Now that they are getting older, some elderly people feel that they are in space, so they go to the university for the elderly, so that they can not only learn things, but also make friends, and the most important thing is not boring.

Since the day of enrollment, I have not left the school, only in and out, and if I have not graduated, can I not be nervous?

At the national level, the education of the elderly should be further clarified through the establishment of corresponding laws and regulations, and further reaffirm that the education of the elderly, as an important aspect of the national education system, is an important part of building a learning society and a lifelong education system. ‍‍

At present, the universities for the elderly are mainly established by the first universities, followed by the universities for the elderly, large and medium-sized enterprises, and the private universities for the elderly. The development of education for the elderly is almost siloed, with a lack of planning and coordination and guidance. ‍

Chinese population is large, naturally there are many elderly people, there are few universities for the elderly, at present, China has entered the door of the elderly society, but the hardware for the elderly services, obviously insufficient preparation for example, nursing homes, elderly ** centers, elderly caregivers, the current nursing fees for elderly nursing staff are at least four or five thousand per month, and one person is difficult to find, the university for the elderly is even rarer, that is, there is a university for the elderly in big cities, and the scale is far less than the regular university, and the seats are limited. This generation of seniors is going to university for the elderly, fulfilling the dream of youth. ‍‍

It is necessary to expand publicity efforts, improve social awareness, and select typical cases and exemplary figures to carry out multi-channel and multi-level publicity, so that the society can see the necessity and inclusiveness of education for the elderly; It is necessary to actively organize the students of the university for the elderly to play a role in giving back to the society, and show their teaching achievements by holding exhibitions, going deep into the community, performing in rural areas, and actively participating in large-scale social activities, so that the society can realize the importance and practical significance of the university and education for the elderly, so as to improve their sense of social identity and win the support of all parties in society. ‍‍

The formation of the phenomenon of "hard to find" universities for the elderly is caused by many reasons, such as the intensification of China's aging society, the improvement of the spiritual and cultural needs of the elderly in China, the insufficient expectations and responses of the state and society to the education of the elderly, and the imbalance in the development of education for the elderly. In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to make efforts from the national level, social understanding, institutional mechanisms and other aspects to form a joint force to promote the social supply of education needs for the elderly under the situation of aggravated aging society. ‍‍

It is necessary to improve the understanding of party committees at all levels and the university for the elderly, and let the party committees at all levels fully realize that the university for the elderly is an important platform for uniting and educating the old comrades, and is an important level for building a harmonious society and adding positive energy to the cause of the party and the people, so as to promote the introduction of local regulations and policies on the education of the elderly, and give the support of institutional mechanisms, financial and material resources, and provide more and higher levels of public services. ‍‍

The different management departments and regional differences in economic development have led to an extremely uneven development of universities for the elderly in various regions. Taking our province as an example, universities for the elderly are mainly under the management of the departments for the work of veteran cadres, and there is no management relationship between universities for the elderly at all levels, because of the different levels of support and resources they occupy, and the development of universities for the elderly at all levels is extremely unbalanced. ‍‍

The idea is that the thinking of the elderly is not our age anymore. Let's understand more.

The elderly queued up all night to go to school, essentially trapped by the reality that the supply of places was less than demand. This aspect is gratifying, showing that the new generation of elderly people have the willingness to take the initiative to learn and socialize, which is better than wasting time on the mahjong table. With the progress of society, the lifestyle of the elderly is also gradually updated; On the other hand, it is worth worrying, the elderly want to go to school but are not, indicating that the education resources of the elderly in the society are insufficient.

According to the report, as of the end of 2013, Jinan City has all levels of education institutions for the elderly can provide the maximum number of places for more than 10,000 people, according to Jinan over 60 years old 10,000 people, only 8 of the 100 elderly can enter the education institutions for the elderly, no wonder the degree of Shandong University for the Aged is so tight.

To solve this problem, we need to focus on both the society and the society. First, the gravity of the problem should be fully recognized in the first place. In an aging society, the allocation of public resources should also be adjusted in a timely manner in accordance with this characteristic.

Compared with the educational resources of young people such as primary and secondary schools, the education of the elderly has always received a small amount of attention and support. All localities should treat the life and entertainment of the elderly as a basic livelihood according to their own conditions, and should be inclined in terms of financial allocation and land use planning. In places where the contradiction between the supply and demand of academic places is prominent, we should build as many universities for the elderly as possible, or allow some primary and secondary schools and universities to open temporary universities for the elderly during the winter and summer vacations.

On the other hand, social forces should also realize that the life supporting services for the elderly are still a commercial blue ocean. As long as there is a rich choice of courses and excellent teachers with professional qualifications are hired, private universities for the elderly will also have a broad space for development.

To a certain extent, the difficulty of finding a university for the elderly is just a mirror of the inability of social resource allocation to keep up with the aging trend. All aspects of the elderly's life, such as medical care, financial management, security, family life, etc., need more resources to enter and provide a higher level of services. In this way, it can not only ensure the quality of life of the elderly, but also form a new economic growth point, taking into account social and economic benefits.

It shows that China's aging is becoming more and more serious. Going to college for the elderly is a trend and trend. It is also a place where the elderly can show themselves and brush up on their presence. The state should also actively promote the development of the education industry for the elderly.
