40、 Teaching Methods（分数：106.00）_正确答案：(参考范文A Random Remark on Teaching MethodsIve noticed that there are, basically, two teaching methods existing in our educational institutions today. One is the traditional lecture method our teachers are used to; the other is the group learning method adopted by many

The method is best at passing on content to students, whose brains are seen as vessels to be filled in. And the rigid class schedule helps prepare s

42、tudents for a society that values discipline and self-control. But generally, students remain totally passive, given little responsibility for their own learning.In Contrast, the teacher of a group learning classroom appears to have no definite role at all, and students are not required to memorize

43、any information. Instead, they are encouraged to actively generate their own ideas, each contributing insights for the success of the group. This method best prepares students for a society that values creative ideas. The disadvantage is, however, that students are apt to overemphasize practical exp

44、erience, lacking in necessary basic skills and background knowledge.In my opinion, a “hybrid“ method might work better. On the one hand, teachers should spend considerable time preparing their lessons but leave more room for students to display their creativeness. On the other, teachers should provi

45、de more interactive activities in class designing challenging group tasks and encouraging different opinions. It is important that teachers get themselves involved in the lives of their students, fully aware of what they think and what the society really needs. Only in this way, can students become
