调查显示:英国学生最讨厌数学老师

  Maths teachers in England are among the most poorly trained in the developed world, a report revealed yesterday. And it found that the average maths specialists in our secondary schools are inferior mathematicians to those teaching primary pupils in Japan. The research saw England languishing second from the bottom of an international league table which included China, Russia and Hungary. Only the Czech Republic was ranked lower。

  什么样的老师最讨人喜欢?教什么科目的老师最受到大家的欢迎?估计这两个问题一抛出,答案是丰富多彩的,因为“萝卜白菜各有所爱”嘛!可是,倘若提出“什么样的老师最不讨人喜欢”这个问题呢?可能答案也会是丰富多菜的,但是有趣的是,经过调查, 这个问题竟然有“唯一”的答案。据悉,有一份研究报告指出,在英国,数学老师的普遍素质较低,最不受到大家的欢迎。此外,研究员还拿英国和日本的数学老师做比较,在英国承担中等教育的老师还不如在日本从事初等教育的数学老师。在国际联赛积分榜上(包括中国俄罗斯以及乌拉圭等国家),英国排倒数第二,仅仅领先捷克国家。

  Wrong numbers: A new report claims Britain is lagging behind all but the Czech Republic in the quality of maths provision Not only are our teachers ill-qualified but many drop out of teaching within five years, which is the point at which they reach their potential in the classroom. Maths teachers in English primary schools need only a C grade at GCSE in the subject, while many teaching at the same level in Japan have a maths degree。

  数据显示,英国在数学教学质量上仅仅比捷克要高一点点而已。此外,调查还显示,不仅仅教学质量低下。在英国,数学老师的流动性非常非常大,5年内辞职的人数十分多。在英国,能教数学老师的资历要求十分低,只需要在(英国)普通中等教育证书拿到C等级就可以从事教育工作。而在日本,从事同样性质工作的数学老师必须得拿到相关数学专业的学位证书。

  Tony McAleavy, of the Plymouth centre, said: 'Teaching needs to become a respected profession in this country, on a par with the law and medicine, and then we will attract more able people.' Professor Celia Hoyles, of the Institute of Education, said there was a need to 'find ways to improve primary maths teachers' competence and confidence in maths'. An Education Department spokesman said the Government wanted to attract better quality maths graduates by offering a fast-track route and raising the bar for entry into training to a 2:2 degree to receive funding。

  来自普利茅斯中心的Tony McAleavy说:“数学教育在我们国家应该受到尊重,其受到尊重的程度应该与法学和医药学相当,我的意思是说数学老师的待遇应当提高,从而吸引更多有识之士来从事该科目的教育。”为了吸引更多人从事数学教育工作,教育部发言人说政府愿意采用“快行道”路线的方法缩短上岗的时间,但是另一方面也要提高门槛,学历水平要做到2:2.
