なぜ、日本の若者は大学合格で努力を止める？（文系）

多くの若者が、18歳で大学に合格したら、勉強の努力を止めてしまうことがもったいないことに思えます。私も同類なので、人のことを言えませんが。
※理系の人は入学後も努力をしていると思います。問題は文系です。

例えば、旧帝大や早慶に入学した人が、必死に努力をすれば、10%くらいの人が英検1級や公認会計士、中小企業診断士くらいの資格は合格できると思います。

なんで、今までみんな、努力をしてこなかったか？企業が、勉強やスキルを評価しないからです。なんちゃって自己PR（例：居酒屋のバイトで～）がまかり通っていたから、みんな勉強しなかったのです。

いい加減、こんな茶番はやめろ、と思っていたら、ちょうどジョブ型雇用の話が出てきてよかったです。

慶應ですら、大学に入学後は、合コンなどに勤しむ学生が多かったのが現実です。これが、アメリカの大学生との違いだと思いますよ。

The Decline and Rise of Learning: Exploring Motivation and Qualifications in Japanese Universities

For many students, university admission represents a monumental achievement, brimming with anticipation for a new life. However, a concerning trend sees some students experience a significant decline in academic motivation upon entering university. This essay delves into the current state of Japanese students' study habits and their pursuit of qualifications, examining the societal factors influencing their learning aspirations.

A notable phenomenon is the drop in study enthusiasm after university enrollment. This can be attributed to the loss of momentum generated by the intense preparation for entrance exams. This trend is particularly evident among humanities students, where the absence of well-defined career paths can lead to a lack of academic direction.

Despite this, the potential for high-achieving students who graduated from prestigious universities like the Imperial Universities or Keio University cannot be underestimated. With dedicated effort, they can acquire invaluable qualifications like the TOEIC Test Level 1, Certified Public Accountant, or Small and Medium Enterprise Consultant exams. These credentials enhance employability and pave the way for future career advancement.

Historically, the emphasis on self-promotion over academic proficiency in the corporate world discouraged many students from prioritizing academic pursuits. Instead, they focused on extracurricular activities and part-time jobs to build impressive resumes.

However, a new wave of change is on the horizon with the rising popularity of job-type employment, where skills and experience hold greater value than just a university degree. This shift has the potential to rekindle students' desire to acquire relevant skills through dedicated academic engagement.

Another aspect to consider is the difference in university cultures between Japan and the United States. In Japan, student life often revolves around extracurricular activities like "gokon" (group dates), whereas American universities typically foster a more study-oriented environment.

The current low level of academic motivation among Japanese students highlights a challenge that demands a collective societal effort. This will require collaboration between universities, corporations, and students themselves, with each taking responsibility and working together effectively.

The introduction of job-type employment and evolving societal norms raise intriguing questions about the future of student motivation in Japan. It remains to be seen how these dynamic changes will shape the landscape of student learning.

In conclusion, fostering a culture of academic engagement among Japanese university students requires a concerted effort from all stakeholders. By adapting educational systems, refining corporate evaluation methods, and encouraging self-motivated learning, we can collectively empower students to embrace the true value of intellectual growth and strive for excellence.
