原文加答案

regularly scheduled exams, etc. some classes will be conducted as seminars. In a seminar class, there may be no exams, but students are expected to read rather widely on topics and be prepared for thorough discussion of them in class. Another possibility in graduate classes is that in addition to readings done by all students, each student may also be expected to work independently in some area of interest and later make a presentation that summarizes what her or she has learned. Usually each student then goes on to write a paper on what he or she has researched to turn in to the professor for a grade.

I hope that today’s lecture has given you some idea about student life on an American campus and that you have noticed some difference between our system and yours.

B2 to make mistakes / every new thing / the language/ Working outside the classroom

Passive / the teach / stick his neck out / more likely to be right than himself

How would you describe a good student or a bad student, sort of things they do or don’t do in the classroom?

He’s eager to experiment with every new thing that he learns, whether it be a structure of a function or a new word, he immediately starts trying to use it.

He’s interested in the mistakes he makes, he’s not afraid to make them.

He’s not simply interested in having it corrected and moving on?

He plays with language.

I’ve done this chapter I know this, without trying to experiment at all, without really testing himself.

He’s usually passive, he won’t speak up much in the classroom. He’ll rarely ask you why this … Just sort of accepts what you give him and doesn’t do anything more with it.

… and in a test he’s the one person who’s likely to suddenly realize that he wasn’t too sure about that after all.

And peep over at his neighbor’s paper.

An alternative learning strategy.

He invariably decides that the other person is more likely to be right than himself. That’s the result of this sort of unwillingness to make mistakes and stick his neck out.

That characterizes the good or bad learner?

He’ll do more off his own bat as well, he won’t rely entirely on the teacher.

He’ll work outside the classroom as well as in it.

Students who make most progress are first of all those who experiment and secondly those who read books.
