Exam uncovers distance between students, teachers (by LNJ )
About half of the 400 Anhui University freshmen questioned about their teachers' names on their midterm exams were unable to answer.
The exam had a maximum score of 100 points, with 40 points attributed to questions that were unrelated to the students' course subjects.
Freshmen from five majors at the school took the exam. Nearly half of the students failed to name all five teachers.
Yang Liangpan, a tutor at the university's School of Electronics and Information Engineering, who designed the questions, said he wanted to use the questions to encourage students to build relationships with their teachers.
He said, when communicating with students, he found that many don't even know their teachers' names, let alone interact with them.
Talking points:
1. What questions were the students asked? How do you look at the questions?
- most of the questions of the exam were about mathematics and physics
- Students were asked to write down the names of four teachers and their tutors, as well as in which classrooms they attend the courses and where the tutor's office is
- Some students can provide the answers
- On the last three questions of the exam at Anhui University, students were questioned about how best to console friends who have broken up with their boyfriend or girlfriend; their opinions on student loans; and what their favorite video games are.
2. Why is the situation and is this something for us to worry about?
- Li Lulu, a sophomore at Wuhan Media and Communications College, said that students at her college in the capital of Hubei province would also struggle to provide answers to similar questions.
- But she argued, "Students are not entirely to blame for this situation. Some teachers just enter the classroom, teach the class and leave without staying to chat with students or offer any personal advice."
- sprawling school campus?
- Credit points system means students go to different classrooms for different courses to earn credit points
4. Is this something unique? What's the situation elsewhere in the world?
