Institutions of higher learning must move, as the historian Walter Russell Mead puts it, from a model of "time served" to a model of "stuff learned." Because increasingly the world does not care what you know. Everything is on Google. The world only cares, and will only pay for, what you can do with what you know. And therefore it will not pay for a C-plus in chemistry, just because your state college considers that a passing grade and was willing to give you a diploma. We’ re moving to a more competency-based world, where there will be less interest in how you acquired the compe tency and more demand to prove that you mastered the competency.
Therefore, we have to get beyond the current system of information and delivery—the professorial "sage on the stage" and students taking notes, followed by a superficial assessment, to one in which students are asked and empowered to master more basic material online at their own pace, and the classroom becomes a place where the application of that knowledge can be honed through lab experiments and discussions with the professor.
There seemed to be a strong consensus that this "blended model" combining online lectures with a teacher-led classroom experience was the ideal. Last fall, San Jose State used the online lectures and interactive exercises of MIT’ s introductory online Circuits and Electronics course. Students would watch the MIT lectures and do the exercises at home. Then in class, the first 15 minutes were reserved for questions and answers with the San Jose State professor, and the last 45 were devoted to problem-solving and discussion. Preliminary numbers indicate that those passing the class went from nearly 60 percent to about 90 percent.
We demand that plumbers and kindergarten teachers be certified to do what they do, but there is no requirement that college professors know how to teach.
No more
. The world of MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) is creating a competition that will force every professor to improve his or her pedagogy or face an online competitor.
Bottom line: There is still huge value in the residential college experience and the teacher-student and student-student interactions it facilitates. But to thrive, universities will have to nurture even more of those unique experiences while blending in technology to improve education outcomes in measurable ways at lower costs. We still need more research on what works, but standing still is not an option.
The most appropriate title for this text would be
选项
A、Future of Education is in Online Learning.
B、Colleges Teachers Should Take a Back Seat.
C、We Should Move the Research on Education forward.
D、Information Technology Promote Students’ Learning.
答案
A
解析
根据题干关键词定位到全文。第一段指出高等教育机构必须行动起来转变模 式。接下来的三段指出教育需要超越当前教室教学的模式,并举例说明在传统教室教学的 基础上,需要结合在线课程,因为在线课程可以制造竞争机制,改善教师的教学方法。第五 段进行总结和延伸,指出大学教育必须结合科技手段。全文围绕在高等教育中融人在线课 程展开,故A项“教育的未来在互联网”做标题最合适,为正确答案。B项“大学教师应该退 居二线”和C项“我们应该推进教育研究向前进”均忽略了科技、互联网等关键信息。D项 “信息技术促进学生的学习”不及A项贴切,故排除。
