That’s the advice from education experts at the University of South Australia for teachers looking to improve student outcomes. Filming and assessing the content of classrooms across South Australia and Victoria, researchers found in a new study that nearly 70% of student tasks involved superficial learning — simple question and answers, taking notes, or listening to teachers — rather than activities that engage students on a deeper level. Less than a third of teachers are engaging students in complicated learning, limiting student opportunities for critical thinking and problem solving. UniSA researcher, Dr. Stephenson, highlights teachers need more support to plan interactive and constructive lessons that promote deep learning. “The greater the engagement, the deeper the learning. Deep learning requires the organization of knowledge into conceptual structures, which improves information memory and learning outcomes. It also supports the development of innovative thinking. Even small changes to teachers’ existing lesson plans and teaching methods can vastly increase student engagement and overall results,” he says. “At a base level, teachers should consider how they can adjust their existing classroom activities so that more tasks are on the deeper end of learning. Take for example, watching a video. Students can silently watch a video (which is ‘passive’); watch a video and take notes using the presenter’s words (which is ‘active’); write questions that occur for them while watching the video (which is ‘constructive’); or watch a video and discuss it with another student to generate different ideas (which is ‘interactive’). Interactive engagement in classrooms motivates students to develop deeper understanding. They’re making judgments, suggesting and commenting on arguments and opinions, and working out solutions to problems,” Dr. Stephenson says. Interestingly, many teachers seem not to know or fully appreciate the importance of how their lesson tasks can stimulate different modes of student engagement. “Even changing class activities from ‘active’ to ‘constructive ’can go a long way towards improving student leaning,” Dr. Stephenson says. “Teachers should undertake professional development to transform their thinking towards practices that support deeper learning and better outcomes for students.” from https://www.eurekalert.org/news-releases/1006151 有删减 牛刀小试 ( ) 1.

Set clear goals. They are like maps that guide you on your educational journey. Write down what you want to achieve, whether it’s getting good grades, joining sports, or joining a club. Having clear goals helps you stay focused. Manage your time wisely. Time is valuable. Once it is spent, it is gone. Create a schedule that includes time for studying, extracurricular activities, and relaxation. Put your tasks in order and follow your plan. Effective time management makes you balance schoolwork and personal life. Staying organized is necessary for success. Keep your study materials, tasks and notes in order. Use a planner to learn of tests and projects. It helps you work well, and makes it easier to find and review important information. Ask for help when you need it. If you have difficulty in learning a subject, ask your teacher. classmates, or others for help. It’s better to ask questions and get understanding than to remain confused. Asking for help is a good thing to do. It shows you want to learn more. It also shows you are serious about your studies. This is important for being a successful student. Do not compare yourself with others. Remember, it’s not important to worry about small things. In high school, the competition is with yourself. Every day, aim to improve and learn. Don’t worry about what other people have or what they look like. In ten years, these things won’t matter at all. Focus on your own journey and growth. 译文：在上学期间这可能很难，但以下步骤能帮助你成为一名成功的学生。 设定明确的目标。它们就像地图一样，指引着你在求学路上前行。写下你想要达成的目标，无论是取得好成绩、参加体育活动还是加入社团。明确的目标能帮助你保持专注。 合理安排时间。时间是宝贵的，一旦流逝就无法挽回。制定一个包括学习、课外活动和休息时间在内的日程安排。按顺序排列任务并遵循计划。有效的时间管理能让你平衡学业和个人生活。 保持条理是成功的关键。整理好学习资料、任务和笔记。使用计划本记录测试项目。这有助于你高效工作，并且更容易找到和复习重要信息。 需要帮助时就开口求助。如果你在某个科目上遇到困难，向老师、同学或其他人寻求帮助。提出问题并获得理解总比一直困惑要好。寻求帮助是件好事，这表明你想要学得更多，也表明你对待学业很认真。这对成为成功的学生很重要。 不要拿自己和别人比较。记住，不必为小事烦恼。在高中，竞争的对象是自己。每天都要努力进步和学习。不要在意别人拥有什么或者他们长什么样。十年后，这些都无关紧要。专注于自己的旅程和成长。 高二时文阅读说明文挑战 High engagement, high return: the secret to student success 高参与度，高回报：学生成功的秘诀（阅读任务单） 答案与解析 牛刀小试 语篇大意：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了学生成功的秘诀是：高参与度，学习就越深入，教师应该进行专业发展，将他们的思维转变为支持学生更深入学习和更好结果的实践。 1.

High engagement in class is very important. When we join in class activities actively like discussions and games, we can understand knowledge better and get better grades. I used to be shy and never answered questions. But now I speak out and join in talks. I find this helps me learn better. To be more engaged, I advise everyone to get ready for class and talk more with teachers and classmates. Let’s all work for high engagement and better learning results! Thanks for listening. 参考译文 高参与度，高回报。这是南澳大利亚大学的教育专家给那些希望提高学生成绩的教师们的建议。 研究人员在南澳大利亚州和维多利亚州拍摄并评估了多个教室的内容，他们在一项新研究中发现，近 70% 的学生任务涉及浅层学习——简单的问答、做笔记或听老师讲课——而不是能更深入地吸引学生的活动。只有不到三分之一的教师让学生参与复杂的学习，这限制了学生进行批判性思维和解决问题的机会。 南澳大学的研究员斯蒂芬森博士强调，教师需要更多支持来规划互动性和建设性的课程，以促进深度学习。“参与度越高，学习就越深入。深度学习需要将知识组织成概念结构，这能提高信息记忆和学习成果。它还有助于培养创新思维。”他说：“即便是对教师现有的教学计划和教学方法做出小小的改动，也能极大地提高学生的参与度和整体成绩。” “从基础层面来讲，教师应当思考如何调整现有的课堂活动，使更多任务处于深度学习的范畴。以观看视频为例，学生可以默默地观看视频（这是‘被动’的）；观看视频并用演讲者的原话做笔记（这是‘主动’的）；观看视频时写下自己想到的问题（这是‘建设性’的）；或者观看视频后与另一名同学讨论以产生不同的想法（这是‘互动性’的）。课堂上的互动式参与能激励学生形成更深入的理解。他们正在做出判断，对论点和观点提出建议和评论，并找出解决问题的办法。”斯蒂芬森博士说道。 有趣的是，许多教师似乎并不了解或充分认识到他们的课堂任务如何能激发学生不同的参与模式的重要性。“即便是将课堂活动从‘主动’改为‘建设性’，也能在很大程度上改善学生的学习效果。”斯蒂芬森博士说。教师应当接受专业发展培训，转变思维，采用有助于学生深度学习并取得更好成绩的教学方法。 8 / 8 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
