A few months later, you will start to teach international students. Today, we will talk about the teaching methods for eff

16、ective communication, which are generally helpful for your future teaching career. Teaching methods can help increase communication effectiveness.(1)Clearly organizing ideas and writing an outline on the chalkboard that lists the main points to be covered during the class helps students follow along

17、 with the organization of ideas.(2)It is also very helpful for students when teachers write technical terms or theoretical concepts on the board as they are mentioned. Students need and appreciate this effort. When a teacher is unsure about the pronunciation of certain words, those words should also

18、 be written on the board. The importance of writing words on the board is illustrated in the following experience of an undergraduate student. “ I had a biology professor from Latin America. He gave a lecture on hung trees. I had never heard about that kind of tree before. After class a bunch of us

19、students were talking about the hung trees. The American teacher heard us and asked us what we were talking about. It was really funny. He said the lecture was about young trees, not hung trees!“ (3)This example of miscommunication points out the necessity of students participation in the internatio

20、nal teachers classroom.(4)By setting aside class time for students to explain and discuss their understanding of the course material and the teachers lecture or explanations, many communication errors can be corrected before they interfere with student learning. Of course, some difficulties may be a

21、ssumed to result from language problems when in fact the problem lies elsewhere. “ For the foreign teacher, we have a problem with the language.(5)When students dont understand, it could be a language problem, but it also could be that the teacher doesnt have good teaching skills. So its important t

22、o communicate with students to find out what the problem is. “ Using effective teaching methods does facilitate classroom communication.(6)As teachers with teaching experience in their native countries already know, when lecturing, it is important to clearly state each point before speaking about it

23、, make the point and then summarize what has been said.(7)Before beginning another idea or point, its necessary to inform students of this change or transition. (8)Students are reluctant to continually ask teachers to repeat what theyve said, even when they havent completely understood the teacher.

24、Thus, it is important for teachers to frequently stop to ask if students have any questions.(9)An even better method is to ask questions of the students in order to check their understanding before going on to another topic.(10)Another method often used by both international and American teachers is

25、 presenting the same idea in more than one way. One teacher from France says “ As a foreigner and since I dont speak the language as well as an American, I repeat very often the same thing in different ways. So they may pick it up the way they want during the many times I say it in different ways. I

26、ts a technique I am spontaneously using. I guess it helps them to understand me. And certainly its useful for understanding certain things that are very hard to understand . If you say it one time, its not enough, so repeating it several ways from different aspectseven making some language mistakes

27、will help them to pick up the idea. “ When giving multiple explanations or examples of the same idea, the teacher should preface each explanation to indicate that the same idea is being explained, only in a different way. Common phrases used to indicate that a different explanation of the same idea

28、is about to be given are: * “ Stated another way.“ * “A simpler explanation of the same idea is.“ * “ Said another way.“ * “Let me present another way of understanding this.“ * “The same idea can be explained in this way.“ * “Another example of this is.“ * “Ill repeat that in a different way.“ Altho

29、ugh teachers who have had extensive lecture experience in their home countries may already use the lecture techniques described here, it may be necessary to exaggerate these methods to ensure adequate communication. Many effective teachers learn to elicit the help of their students.(11)If the teache

30、r and students have a friendly relationship, students usually are more willing to help facilitate communication in the classroom. In the following statement a teacher from Iran described how he uses certain teaching methods to be sure his students understand him. “Ive been trying hard to be clear, t

31、o say the words separately so that students can understand.(12)Once in a while I stop and ask, Do you follow? or Am I clear? and pretty much make them feel that any time they can stop me. Anytime they want they can stop me and say, I didnt get that point. Then I explain. You have to encourage their

32、questions, say, Good question Interesting , or Who else has a question? You have to make them feel comfortable in the class.“ (13)Getting students to participate in the class by being friendly and supportive of their comments, ideas, and questions can help both the teacher and the students feel more

33、 comfortable in the classroom.(14)When students feel comfortable enough to participate in class, they may be more tolerant of the teachers language difficulties and(15)be willing to cooperate with the teacher in solving communication problems. Today, weve talked about ways for you, future internatio

34、nal teachers, to enhance communication in the classroom. The suggestions are offered as a starting point. By endeavoring to understand communication problems that can occur in the international teachers classroom, you can take action to minimize these problems. I hope you would have a good time. 【知识

39、 Hows everything going? W: Fine. Busy these days? M: Yeah. With lots of things to do. Would you like to join me for a drink? W: OK, thanks. M: Any news recently? W: Oh, well, yesterday I read the newspaper and got a piece of very shocking news. You know,(1/2-1)its not the federal government that set

40、s the calendar for our public schools. Public school calendars are set by individual states and districts.(2-2)According to the news, instead of a long summer break, our local school decided to keep students in class year-round with shorter breaks throughout, offering about 20 additional school days

41、. M: (2-3)The students must feel very sad when hearing this news. W: Yeah, I think so. And this idea is gaining increasing popularity.(3)Its the strategy school districts across the country are experimenting with. Perhaps the most closely watched is in Massachusetts, which has extended class time fo

42、r 26 of its low-performing schools. The idea has even won the endorsement of both President Obama and his education chief. M: Mm. ,(4)I heard that the education chief said in an interview that our current school calendar was based upon the agrarian economy and the vast majority of the students in ou

43、r country werent working in the fields in the summers. So he he thought it was really an outdated, outmoded model. It needed to be changed. W: I dont agree with him.(5 - 1)Extending school year seems so completely short-sighted to me. More time is no silver bullet for reform. Take Miami-Dade County

44、Schools in Florida for example, it used an extended day program for three years, but dropped it because they didnt see improvement in test scores.(5-2)Besides, it it disrupts family life. This is the end of Part One of the conversation. Questions 1 to 5 are based on what you have just heard. 1. Who

M: Well, surely you must have to admit that we have a significantly shorter sc

47、hool year. Im worried. er. our students are at a competitive disadvantage with their peers in India and China. Students in those other countries are going to school 210, 220, 230 days a year. Our students are going to school 180 days a year, generally. And I think our students are absolutely smart,

48、absolutely committed, and can do extraordinary things. But we have to level the playing field. And if in a sports contest, one team is practicing three days a week and one team is practicing five days a week, the team that is practicing more is going to do better. W: (6)But simply extending school t

49、ime in and of itself will not produce the desired results. Larry Cuban, a Stanford University professor of education, has argued that what matters most is not the quantity but the quality of time students and teachers spend together in the classroom. M: Well, yes. Mm., but, extending school time does bring some advantages.(7-1)It gives the students learning experiences that they might not be able to get over the summe
