老师们真的了解学生吗？为了搞清楚当学生到底是什么感觉，美国新泽西一名老师坐在教室里当了两天学生。结果他发现，当学生完全不是他想象的那样。 他的体会包括：当学生要一整天坐着不动，这是非常累的；高中生课堂上90%的时间都是被动地在听课；由于无数次被告知保持安静，集中注意力，学生们一天到晚都感觉自己很烦人。 这位已有14年教龄的老师说，当学生的经验令他恍然大悟。他非常后悔没有在开始教育生涯的第一年就这么做。如果他能重新来过，他将立刻针对这些问题重新设计自己的课程 Do teachers really know what students go through? To find out, one teacher followed two students for two days and was amazed at what she found. Her report is in following post, which appeared on the blog of Grant Wiggins, the co-author of “Understanding by Design” and the author of “Educative Assessment” and numerous articles on education. A high school teacher for 14 years, he is now the president of Authentic Education, in Hopewell, New Jersey, which provides professional development and other services to schools aimed at improving student learning. You can read more about him and his work at the AE site. By Alexis Wiggins I have made a terrible mistake. I waited 14 years to do something that I should have done my first year of teaching: shadow a student for a day. It was so eye-opening that I wish I could go back to every class of students I ever had right now and change a minimum of ten things – the layout, the lesson plan, the checks for understanding. Most of it! |
