Differences between Chinese and English Basic Education
Syllabus: China has a unified syllabus for basic education, and all schools have a unified teaching schedule, so the overall teaching plan is better; The syllabus of basic education in Britain is more casual. Students don't have fixed textbooks, and different schools choose different textbooks. The teacher designs the learning content of each class for the students, and each class is divided into classes according to the students' ability.
Class management: In Britain, the class size of primary and secondary schools is generally 65,438+00, while in China, the class size is generally 40 to 50 students, and some are about 30 students. China requires strict classroom order and discipline, while British classroom management is more flexible and does not require uniformity.
Teaching methods: Chinese-style classroom is dominated by teachers' lectures, supplemented by students' lectures, and also includes classroom discussion. Primary and secondary schools in Britain focus on students' discussion and participation, and teachers play an auxiliary role in the classroom. The whole class can be discussed at any time in the mode of "group cooperative learning".
