为什么值得读

  • 令人心碎地揭露学校对真正思维的抑制
  • 提供适合数学教学的二十个问题等游戏
  • 启发关于在家自学与另类学校的深入思考

这一系列非正式的备忘录,揭示了典型的小学教学法是如何压制孩子与生俱来的求知欲,从而使孩子陷入沮丧、迷茫与对失败的恐惧之中的。

Hacker News 上怎么说

  • ……教学与《美国教育的暗黑史》(The Underground History of American Education)。Charlotte Iserbyt的《蓄意愚化美国》(the deliberate dumbing down of america)。Ivan Illich的《非学校化社会》(Deschooling Society)。John Holt的书随便哪本都行,尤其是《孩子为何失败》(How Children Fail)和《孩子如何学习》(How Children Learn)。---------- 除了萨德伯里学校(Sudsbury schools),还有其他几种另类学校模式:无政府主义自由学校和民主学校。这些也可以去查查。归根结底,究竟……

    …Instruction and The Underground History of American Education. Charlotte Iserbyt: the deliberate dumbing down of america. Ivan Illich: Deschooling Society. John Holt: Anything at all, but particularly How Children Fail and How Children Learn. ---------- Besides Sudsbury schools, there's several other alternative school models: anarchistic free schools and democratic schools. Look those up, as well. Ultimately, what…

  • ……比大多数孩子能接触到的数学表征要高深得多。游戏是非常好的学习工具。我最喜欢的一个用来教数学的游戏,是从John Holt的《孩子为何失败》(How Children Fail,初版于1964年,我是1971年听了学校副校长的建议读的)里学来的。这个“二十个问题”游戏让孩子们通过提问20个“是/否”问题,从1到1,000,000中找出一个数字……

    …more sophisticated representations of mathematics than most children get to play with. Games are great learning tools. One of favorite games for teaching mathematics I learned about from John Holt's book How Children Fail (originally published 1964, which I read in 1971 on the advice of my school's assistant principal). The twenty questions game asks children to find a number from 1 to 1,000,000 by asking twenty yes/no…

  • ……为了拿分,而在那种环境下,“思考”既浪费时间又没有动力。(另见:Lockhart's Lament https://www.maa.org/external_archive/devlin/LockhartsLament....,以及John Holt那本让人心碎的《孩子为何失败》(How Children Fail)等等。)Gowers也写过几篇帖子,介绍了一种截然不同的数学教学方法:https://gowers.wordpress.com/2012/06/08/how-should-mathemati... https://gowers.wordpress.com/2012/07/07/a-trip-to-watford-gr...

    …to win points, and within that environment “thinking” is wasteful and disincentivized. (See also: Lockhart's Lament https://www.maa.org/external_archive/devlin/LockhartsLament...., the heart-breaking How Children Fail by John Holt, etc.) Gowers also had a couple of posts on a very different way of teaching mathematics: https://gowers.wordpress.com/2012/06/08/how-should-mathemati... https://gowers.wordpress.com/2012/07/07/a-trip-to-watford-gr...

  • ……学校或者是对学校的模仿。美国大多数在家自学(homeschooling)的人是出于宗教原因,不过在每个城市你也能找到世俗的在家自学群体。一些参考资料:John Holt的《孩子如何学习》(How Children Learn)和《孩子为何失败》(How Children Fail)。John Taylor Gatto的《七堂课教师》(The Seven Lesson Schoolteacher,线上版):https://www.wanderings.net/notebook/Main/SevenLessonsTaughtI...,以及John Taylor写的《愚弄我们》(Dumbing Us Down)和《大规模毁灭性武器》(Weapons of Mass Destruction)……

    …school or a simulation of it. The majority of homeschoolers in America do it for religious reasons, though you can find secular homeschooling groups in every city.

  • ……成为其中的一部分?关于这个话题我的看法部分来自我自己的经历,但很大程度上也受了John Holt著作的塑造。如果有感兴趣的朋友,我推荐把《孩子为何失败》(How Children Fail)作为绝佳的入门书;它对我关于教育和学校本质的思考影响至深。

    …be a part of? My views on this topic are derived in part from my own experience, but they have also been shaped a great deal by the writings of John Holt. For those who are interested, I'd recommend How Children Fail as a great book to start with; it has really been influential in my thinking about education and the nature of school.
