从心理学家罗森塔尔和吉布森等人做的试验中可以看出,教师合理的期望能够促进学生学习主动性的提高。然而在现实的教育过程中,教师对学生常表达出不合理的期望,造成了中学生学习主动性的严重缺乏,严重地影响和制约了学校教育教学质量。为了促进中学生学习主动性的提高,教师理应恰当表达对学生的期望,要做到全面了解学生、客观评价学生,对学生的期望要具有可行性、挑战性。 From the tests done by psychologists Rosenthal and Gibson et al., It can be seen that teachers ’reasonable expectation can promote the improvement of students’ learning initiative. However, in the actual education process, teachers often give unreasonable expectations to students, resulting in a serious lack of initiative of secondary school students, which seriously affects and restricts the quality of school education. In order to promote the learning initiative of middle school students, teachers should properly express their expectation to students. It is feasible and challenging to fully understand the students, evaluate the students objectively and expect the students.
