  大学里,课堂出勤率令老师们头疼不已,而各种电子产品更是让学生无心听课。为了将学生们的注意力重新吸引到课堂上,老师们也是怪招不断。
  In the digital age, getting students into classrooms is an increasingly challenging mission for university teachers, not to mention retaining their attention.
  “It’s much harder to teach students now,” said a math professor at Fudan University. “They use smartphones and tablets to search for information, even during class. They get knowledge from a variety of sources, and consider it trivial to skip classes.” According to him, this phenomenon has forced teachers to adopt “odd tricks” for luring students to class.
  在这个数码时代,对于大学老师而言,让学生们来听课是项愈发艰巨的任务,更不用说让他们集中精力听讲。
  复旦大学数学系一位教授表示:“给现在的学生教课可谓难上加难。他们用手机和平板电脑来搜寻信息,甚至在课堂上也是如此。他们获取知识的渠道五花八门,在他们看来跷课只是件寻常小事。”该教授指出,该现象致使老师们不得不采取“怪招”吸引学生来上课。
  Food For Thought
  食物激励
  Rather than providing only moral encouragement, teachers at Wuhan University of Technology are offering tangible incentives to boost student attendance.
  Students sitting in the first row of the health psychology course taught by professor Lei are rewarded with snacks.
  “I’ve accumulated 7,000 fans on my micro blog, and most of them are my students,” said Lei, director of the university’s Development and Education Psychology Institution. “I wanted to express my thanks to those coming to listen, and to make the class more lively.”
  为了提高出勤率,武汉科技大学的老师们不只从精神上鼓励学生,更是采用物质激励法。
  在雷教授的心理健康课上,坐在第一排的学生会得到零食作为奖励。
  雷教授是该校发展与教育心理研究所的所长,他说:“我的微博粉丝数已达到7000多了,其中大都是我的学生。我希望对前来听课的学生表示感谢,让课堂变得更加生动活泼。”
  Teacher vs Phone
  老师PK手机
  In the broadcasting and hosting course of Hankou University in Hubei, teacher Huang gives students permission to busy themselves with their cell phones during class.
  They keep their heads down until they hear something interesting. If not, they can sit through the entire class without being disturbed and even give the teacher advice following the class.
  “A teacher is not a boss and students have the right to make content suggestions,” said Huang.
  在湖北汉口大学的播音主持课上,黄老师允许学生在课堂上专注于手机。
  学生们一直低着头,直到听到有趣的内容才会抬头。如果课堂毫无趣味可言,他们可以把一节课的时间都花在手机上,丝毫不受干扰;甚至还可以在课后给老师提建议。
  黄老师说:“老师不是老板,学生有权利提出合理意见。”
  Friendly Blogs
  微博来作良师益友
  You might hesitate to participate in class discussions, but what if you could send a message instead of speaking out loud? In the computer science course at Changsha University of Science&Technology, students can voice opinions via their cellphone.   “I open a micro blog web page and when students text a message to the account it appears on the screen,” said teacher Huang.
  Su Ying, 19, a sophomore at CUST, said, “I feel relaxed as I don’t like standing up and getting everybody’s attention.”
  At Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications,students who arrive at the laboratory early are rewarded with a message of praise on a micro blog named “BUPT CAD center attendance machine. It might say something like: “Edison invented the first bulb; Bell invented the first telephone; and this morning, Xiao Li printed the first fingerprint.”
  The machine, which sends a message whenever a student places their finger on it, was invented by a computer professor. “Students wrote the posts themselves. If they come first, they are praised in front of 2,000 fans,” the professor said.
  你也许会为是否参加课上讨论而犹豫不决,那么如果改用发信息的方式来表达观点呢?在长沙科技大学的计算机专业课上,学生可以通过手机来表达观点。
  黄老师说:“我打开微博页面,当学生发来私信时,它就会显示在屏幕上。”
  该校大二学生,19岁的苏樱说:“我觉得很放松,因为我不喜欢站起来接受所有人目光的洗礼。”
  北京邮电大学的学生如果早到实验室,便会获得由“北邮CAD中心考勤机器”微博发来的奖励信息。内容大致为:爱迪生发明了第一只灯泡,贝尔发明了第一部电话,今天早上,小李印下了第一枚指纹。
  这台会发信息的指纹考勤机的发明者是该校计算机系一位教授。该教授说:“微博内容都是学生自己写的。如果他们来得早,便会在2000多名粉丝面前接受表扬。”
  Kungfu Style
  功夫范儿
  Splitting bricks by hand usually only happens in movies. But in a class at Sichuan University, dean of the computer science department did just that. But he didn’t just want to attract attention.
  “I want to tell my students that even when you only know some simple science principles, if you use them right, you can achieve great things,” said he. “I want them to know that university is not only about doing research, but also about employing your practical knowledge.”
  徒手劈砖通常只在电影中出现,而在四川大学的课堂上,计算机科学系系主任就上演了一幕徒手劈砖。但他并不只是想吸引同学的关注。
  该主任说:“我想告诉学生们,即使你只知道一些简单的科学原理,如果应用得当,你也可以成就大事。我想让他们知道,大学不仅仅是做科研的地方,也是运用和实践知识的地方。”
