Passage Three
段落三
Let children learn to judge their own work.
讓孩子們學會判斷自己的行為。
A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time. If corrected too much, he will stop talking.
小孩不是通過一直被糾正才學會說話的,如果被糾正太多,他就會拒絕開口說話。
He compares a thousand times a day the difference between language as he uses it and language as those around him use it. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people's.
他每天將自己的語言與周邊人的語言進行上千次的比較。一點點的,他做了必要的改變使他的語言與其他人相像。
In the same way, kids learning to do all the other things they learn without adult teachers, to walk, run, climb, ride a bike, play games, compare their own performance with what more skilled people do, and slowly make the needed changes.
同樣的,孩子們在沒有成年人指導的情況下學習其它的事。他們學習如何走、跑、爬、騎自行車和玩游戲,將自己的行為和更有技巧的人的行為相比較,然后慢慢做出必要的轉變。
But in school we never give a child a chance to detect his mistakes. We do it all for him.
但在學校我們從不給孩子發現錯誤的機會。我們為他做了一切。
We act as if we thought he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him. Soon he becomes dependent on the expert.
我們表現得就像不跟他指出,他就不會認識到自己的錯誤一樣。不久他就會產生依賴。
We should let him do it himself. Let him figure out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what is the answer to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or that.
我們應該讓他有自理能力,如果他愿意的話,還可以在其他孩子的幫助下自己解決問題。這個詞怎么說,這個問題的答案是什么,這是否是去說、去做這件事的好方法。
If right answers need to be given, as in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers.
如果正確的答案需要被告知,像是數學或科學學科,那么給他一本答案,讓他自己糾正他的作業。
Why should we teachers waste time on such tedious work? Our job should be to help the children when they tell us that they can't find the way to get the right answer.
為什么我們老師要在這樣乏味的事情上浪費時間?我們的工作應該是在孩子不能找到正確的方法找到答案時幫助他們。
