到澳大利亚访问,听了几堂中学的课,我感触良多。澳大利亚中小学最大班容量为25名学生。我发现,学生的座位不是老师安排的,而是随意坐的。学生们非常随意地或躺,或跪,或坐在教室的地毯上,甚至在回答老师的问题时,也不变姿势。老师和学生们的表情非常自然、随意。我想,他们一定习惯了吧。课堂的气氛非常轻松、和谐。 When I visited Australia and listened to several middle school classes, I felt a lot of difference. The maximum size of primary and secondary schools in Australia is 25 students. I found that the student’s seat is not arranged by the teacher, but free to sit. The students are very casual or lying down, or kneeling, or sitting on the carpet in the classroom, even when answering the teacher’s questions, but also not change posture. The expressions of the teachers and students are very natural and casual. I think they must be used to it. The atmosphere in the classroom is very relaxed and harmonious.
