A Before class 课前准备

Read the title on the next page. Predict two pieces of advice. Mark them as predictions, not as the writer’s words. Read the text once and circle no more than five unfamiliar words.

My predictions: _______________________________________________________

How to Become a Successful Learner 如何成为成功的学习者

Textbook pp. 26–27. Paragraph numbers have been added for discussion.

[1] Everyone has the ability to learn. Experts on the science of learning will tell you that anyone can become a successful learner. However, many students do not realize this, and they have trouble learning.

[2] Studies show that the first key to becoming a successful learner is to have a growth mindset. This means, in part, believing in yourself. It also means setting goals, taking action, and meeting challenges. People with a growth mindset see mistakes as chances for learning, as they teach us how to improve.

[3] Research also shows that practice is important for learning. The more we practise, the better we learn. We learn best by practising new and difficult things. Sometimes it is also important to get guidance from a teacher or a coach. They can show us the right way to practise and give us important feedback and advice.

[4] In addition, studies show that students learn more when they hang out with other students who are serious about study. First, by being together, students can easily learn from each other. Second, students are challenged to do better by each other. This has been proven to encourage learner growth.

[5] Successful learners also use the best learning materials they can find. In the 21st century, this means using new technology and resources, not just textbooks. Since there are so many learning materials on the internet, it is important to think carefully and choose wisely what and how you study. Take advantage of the best tools and resources to learn wisely and efficiently.

[6] Finally, successful learners see learning as part of daily life. It is something they will do even after they leave school, even when they are old. As you continue on your learning journey, you should try to walk at your own speed and enjoy the trip. Never lose heart. The road ahead of you may be long and may have many mountains and valleys, but it also has great treasure. You will find more joy in living a life with learning!

As you read, mark one piece of advice you already use and one that challenges your present habits.

C Explain the writer’s reasoning 解释作者的思路 12 minutes

Work in pairs. Choose two questions first; then share with a pair who chose different ones. Give a paragraph number and explain the clue in your own words.

1 In paragraph 2, why are mistakes called “chances”? Is repeating the same mistake without checking it enough?

2 In paragraph 3, which words challenge the idea that doing many easy tasks is always the best practice? What role can a teacher play?

_____________________________________________________________________

3 What does “This” in paragraph 4 refer to? Why is sitting beside another student not the whole idea?

_____________________________________________________________________

_____________________________________________________________________

4 In paragraph 6, what could “mountains and valleys” and “treasure” mean for a learner? How does this image affect the ending?

D Test a study plan 用文本检验学习计划 10 minutes

Original classroom case: Rui says, “I failed once, so I’m bad at science. I will copy familiar answers for two hours every night. I have saved forty learning videos; more must be better.”

Choose two parts to change. For each, link a paragraph to a practical replacement. Explain what Rui could check after trying it.

 

Challenge: Does the text establish that every learning app is useful? Give a careful answer rather than a yes-or-no guess.
