缺少了合适的老师,根本谈不上教育。好的老师懂得如何启发学生思维,激发学生对某学科的兴趣。
也许每个人心中都有自己最喜欢的老师,在教师节到来之际,我们来看看外国一些著名的教育者,看看他们对教育产生了哪些重要影响。
Just by the nature of their work, teachers are in a position to profoundly[深刻地] impact[影响] the students they teach. There are probably one or more teachers from your past that helped, encouraged or even inspired you.
Here, we look at five famous teachers from history that changed the landscape[前景] of education.
Best Known Teaching Role: Mathematics[数学] teacher at East Los Angeles-based Garfield High School
How He Changed Education: Students at Garfield High School were historically poor performers when it came to mathematics coursework. But after Escalante became a math teacher there in 1974, he helped record numbers of Garfield students pass the Advanced Placement注1 (AP) Calculus[微积分学] exam. The best known portrayal[描绘] of this story of student success is the 1988 film Stand and Deliver.
Best Known Teaching Role: Professor at Londonbased Oxford University
How He Changed Education: As a lover and learner of ancient mythology[神话] and philosophy[哲学], Lewis was heavily influenced[影响] by fellow Oxford professor and The Hobbit author, J.R.R. Tolkien. Lewis continues to inspire generations long after his passing[去世], with works such as Mere Christianity, The Screwtape Letters and The Chronicles of Narnia.
由于其工作性质,教师必然会对其所教的学生产生深刻的影响。在以前教过你的老师之中,可能就有不止一位老师曾经帮助、鼓励,甚至启发过你。
现在,我们就来看看历史上改变了教育面貌的五位名师。
知名教职:美国东洛杉矶加菲尔德高中数学老师
教育成就:加菲尔德高中的学生素来数学成绩欠佳,但自1974年埃斯卡兰特成为该校的数学老师后,在他的帮助下,通过大学先修课程微积分考试的学生人数创了该校的历史新高。关于这个学生成功故事的最著名的写照,就是1988年的电影《为人师表》。
知名教职:伦敦牛津大学教授
教育成就:身为古代神话和哲学的爱好者与学习者,刘易斯深受同为牛津大学教授、《霍比特人》的作者J.R.R. 托尔金的影响。刘易斯辞世之后,其作品如《返璞归真》、《地狱来鸿》及《纳尼亚传奇》等仍然激励着后人。
Best Known Teaching Role: Teacher at several New York City-based schools
How He Changed Education: Not only did McCourt impact several students throughout his various[各种各样的] teaching positions in New York City, but he also inspired students after the publication of his best-selling memoir, Angela’s Ashes. Books that followed include ’Tis and Teacher Man.
知名教职:纽约市数所学校的教师
教育成就:在几所纽约学校担任过各种教职的麦考特不仅影响了这些学校的一些学生,他的畅销回忆录《安琪拉的灰烬》也给学生带来许多启发。其后出版的图书包括《就是这儿》和《教书匠》。
Best Known Teaching Role: Teacher of Helen Keller
How She Changed Education: As a visually[在视觉上] impaired[受损的] teacher herself, Sullivan was hired to teach the deaf and blind Helen Keller to communicate[沟通] with those who are able to hear and see. She went on to work with Keller for the next 49 years before her death in 1936. The best known portrayal of this story is in the Academy Award-winning film, The Miracle Worker. 知名教职:海伦·凯勒的老师
教育成就:本身亦有视觉障碍的沙利文被聘为聋哑盲人海伦·凯勒的老师,教她学习如何与视觉听力正常的人沟通。在此后49年,直到1936年去世之前,沙利文一直与海伦·凯勒一起工作。奥斯卡获奖电影《奇迹的缔造者》便是对这个故事最著名的描绘。
Best Known Teaching Role: Taught in several one-room schoolhouses throughout Minnesota How She Changed Education: Despite not graduating high school, Wilder became a teacher at the age of 15 and taught three terms before marrying in 1885. Her short-lived youth and the challenges she and her family faced in the American Midwest in the 1880s have been documented[用文件等记录] in books and television shows including Little House on the Prairie, Little House in the Big Woods and On the Banks of Plum Creek.
