HOW DO I KNOW MY STUDENTS?
As an educator, people often ask me how I know what is going on in the minds of my students. Many students are quite shy and don’t speak all that much. At the same time, in a classroom of more than forty students, it is hard to have many one-on-one conversations with each person. So, how can I really know what makes each student tick?
My answer? I look at their body language.
1. what is going on in the minds
心里怎么想
2. at the same time
同时
3. have many one-on-one
conversations
进行多次一对一的谈话
4. what makes each student tick
使每个学生这样做的原因

My answer? I look at their body language.
我如何了解我的学生?
作为一名教师,人们经常问我,我怎么知道自己的学生在想什么。许多学生相当害羞,所以他们的话并不那么多。同时,在一个有40多名学生的教室里,很难与每个人进行多次一对一的谈话。那么,我是如何搞清楚每个学生为何会这样的呢?
我的答案?我看他们的肢体语言。

马上,片刻之间
It is easy to recognise when students are interested in a lesson. Most tend to look up and make eye contact. When I make a joke, they smile. When I talk about something difficult, they look confused. I know when students are really interested, however, because they lean forward and look at me. People have a tendency to lean towards whatever they are interested in. So if a student has his head lowered to look at his watch, it implies he is bored and just counting the minutes for the class to end. If two friends are leaning their heads together, they are probably writing notes to each other. Of course, not everyone who looks up is paying attention in class. Some students look up,but there is an absence of eye contact. Their eyes barely move, and they always have the same distant expression on their faces. It is as though they are asleep with their eyes open.
1. tend to look up and make
eye contact
倾向于抬头和进行眼神交流
2. make a joke
开玩笑
3. have a tendency to lean
towards
往往倾向于
4. leaning their heads
together
把头靠在一起
5. an absence of eye contact
没有眼神交流

当学生对一堂课感兴趣时,很容易辨认出来。大多数人倾向于抬头和进行眼神交流。当我开玩笑时,他们会笑。当我谈论到难点时,他们看起来很困惑。不过,我知道学生们什么时候真正感兴趣,因为他们身体前倾看着我。人们往往倾向于自己感兴趣的东西。因此,如果一个学生低下头看表,这意味着他很无聊,只是在数着分钟等下课。如果两个朋友把头靠在一起,他们可能在互相写纸条。当然,不是每个抬头的人都专注于课堂。有些学生抬头看,但没有眼神交流。他们的眼睛几乎不动,脸上表情疏远呆滞,好像睁着眼睛在睡觉。

While it is easy to perceive when students are interested, bored, or distracted, it is sometimes much harder to distinguish when students are troubled. Students who are angry, afraid, or experiencing anxiety may have their arms crossed in front of their chests and their legs closed or crossed, like they are guarding their bodies. Students who are sad or worried will nearly always wear a frown. They may also hide their faces in their hands like they are embarrassed or ashamed. Some students act this way merely because they are afraid of being called on by the teacher. However,if a student does not bother to brush her hair and her eyes are red from weeping,then I can infer that there are deeper issues at work. It could be that she is having serious conflicts with other students or at home. Whatever it is, I know I need to inquire and assess what is going on.
1. have their arms crossed
双臂交叉
2. wear a frown

3. being called on by the

4. brush her hair

尽管学生们何时(对讲课)感兴趣、何时感到无聊或精力不集中是容易察觉的,但要发现学生何时有困扰有时会难得多。生气、害怕或者焦虑的学生会双臂交叉抱在胸前,他们的腿并拢或交叉,就像他们在保护自己的身体。难过或担心的学生几乎总是愁眉不展。他们也会用手捂住脸好像很尴尬或羞愧。有些学生这样做仅仅是因为他们害怕被老师叫到。但是,要是学生都懒得梳头,并且两眼因哭泣而发红,那么我能够推断她遇到了更严重的问题。可能是她正和其他学生或家里人有很严重的矛盾。不管是什么,我知道我需要调查和评估所发生的事情。
