For years, high school students have received identical textbooks as their classmates. Even as students have different learning styles and abilities, they are force-fed the same materials. " Imagine a digital textbook where because I’m a different person and learn differently, my book is different than your book," said Richard Baraniuk, founder of OpenStax.
OpenStax will spend two years developing the personalized books and then test them on Houston-area students. The books will also go through a review and evaluation process similar to traditional textbooks. Baraniuk expects 60 people to review each book before publication to ensure its quality.
The idea is to make learning easier, so students can go on to more successful careers and lives. Baraniuk isn’t just reproducing physical textbooks on digital devices, a mistake e-book publishers have made. He’s seriously rethinking that the educational experience should be in a world of digital tools. To do this means involving individuals with skills traditionally left out of the textbook business. Baraniuk is currently hiring cognitive scientists and machine learning experts. Baraniuk wants to use the tactics(策略)of Google, Netflix and Amazon to deliver a personalized experience. These Web services all rely on complex algorithms(算法)to automatically adjust their offerings for customers.
Just as Netflix recommends different movies based on your preferences and viewing history, a textbook might present materials at a different pace. The textbook—which will be stored on a range of digital devices—will automatically adjust itself thanks to machine learning. As a student learns about a topic, he or she could be interrupted by brief quizzes that evaluate whether he or she masters the area. Depending on how the student does, the subject could be reinforced with more material. Or a teacher could be automatically e-mailed that the student is struggling with a certain concept and could use some one-on-one attention.
This personalized learning experience is possible thanks to the wealth of data a digital textbook can track. This data can be used to better track students’ progress during a course. Parents and teachers can monitor a student’s development and provide in time more proper assistance. With personalized learning methods, our students’ talents will be better developed.
What do we learn about personalized books?
选项
A、Their quality will be ensured since they are developed by OpenStax.
B、They will be examined and judged before being published.
C、They will overlook different learning styles and abilities.
D、They will be much similar to traditional textbooks.
答案
B
解析
事实细节题。本题考查个性化教材的信息。定位句提到,个性化教材出版前也需要经过审查和评估。B)中的be examined and judged是原文中go through a review and evaluation process的词义转述,故答案为B)。A)“因为它们是由OpenStax研发的,所以它们的质量有保证”,由第二段的首尾句可知,OpenStax的确要研发这些书,但是在每本书出版之前要有60人审阅,以确保其质量,并且还要通过休斯顿地区的学生测试这些教材,A)项信息与此不符,故排除;根据第一段末句可知,个性化教材强调不同的学习方式和能力,C)“它们会忽视不同的学习方式和能力”与此处信息相矛盾,故排除;D)“它们很类似于传统教材”是对第二段第二句的断章取义。个性化教材和传统教材的相似之处是出版前都需要经过类似的审查和评估过程,但根据文章可知,它们和传统教材有着本质的区别,故排除。
