1 .<-NARRATOR:->Listen to part of a lecture in an education class. The professor is discussing the Italian educator Maria Montessori.

旁白:听一段教育课程的讲座。教授正在讨论意大利教育家玛利娅•蒙台梭利。

第2段

1 .<-FEMALE PROFESSOR:->Okay, if you did your reading for today then you were introduced to a very influential alternative to traditional education.

2 .This educational philosophy and methodology was pioneered in Italy in the early 1900s by Dr. Maria Montessori.

第3段

1 .<-MALE STUDENT:->It's based on very different ideas about how kids learn best, right?

第4段

1 .<-FEMALE PROFESSOR:->Um, hmm. It was groundbreaking.

教授:嗯,这是开创性的。

2 .To begin with, unlike the traditional classrooms at the time, the Montessori classroom environment was more suited to the child—the furniture was child-sized; well, it's that way in almost all schools now, but that wasn't always the case.

首先,与当时的传统教室不同,蒙台梭利的课堂环境更适合孩子,家具是儿童大小的。好吧,现在几乎所有的学校都是这样,但在当时情况并非总如此。

3 .We can thank Montessori for this.

对于这一点,我们可以感谢蒙台梭利。

4 .Uh, you won't see any long benches with children in rows or heavy desks that separate children.

你看不到到孩子们排成排坐在长凳上或是将孩子分隔开的沉重的书桌。

5 .Children are free to interact with each other.

孩子们可以自由地相互交流。

6 .An-and in Montessori classrooms the furniture is lightweight, so children can move it around easily.

在蒙台梭利的教室里,家具是轻便的,所以孩子们可以轻松地移动它。

第6段

1 .<-FEMALE PROFESSOR:->Oh, no, no, no.Let's not confuse this liberty of activity with lack of discipline.

教授:噢,不不不。不要把这种活动的自由性与缺乏纪律混为一谈。

2 .In fact, teachers have to maintain this specific environment carefully through a number of rules, which are generally about respect and what's right.

5 .They may be guided by the teacher, but it's ultimately up to each child to select tasks.

他们可能是由老师指导,但这最终取决于每个孩子选择的任务。

6 .Which brings us to the manipulative equipment you find in a Montessori classroom, ah, like little boards that have rough or smooth surfaces, or blocks that can be stacked into a tower.

这就将我们带到蒙台梭利教室的可操作的器材(的话题上),比如有粗糙或光滑表面的小板子,可以堆叠成塔的积木。

7 .Now, this equipment was designed by Montessori over time with much experimentation—designed, um, well, designed to help children teach themselves, through playing.

这个器材是由蒙台梭利经过长时间的实验设计出来的,旨在帮助孩子通过游戏自学。

第7段

1 .<-FEMALE STUDENT:->Well, what do the teachers do, I mean, if the kids are teaching themselves?

学生:那么,老师们做什么? 我的意思是,如果孩子们在自学。

第8段

1 .<-FEMALE PROFESSOR:->Ah, well, that's a good question.

教授:啊,这是个好问题。

2 .To start, uh, a child may not work with an activity until the teacher has demonstrated its proper use.

首先,在老师演示正确的操作方式之前,一个孩子可能无法开展活动。

3 .Then the Montessori teacher's job is to observe the child's play, because when the children "play" they're acquiring the basis for later concepts.

那么,蒙台梭利老师的工作就是观察孩子的玩耍,因为当孩子们玩耍时,他们在为以后的思想概念(的形成)获取基础。

4 .So the teacher helps motivate and focus each child and monitors the child's progress, but does not interfere with the child's observations and deductions.

因此,教师要去激励和关注每个孩子,并监督孩子的进步,但不干扰孩子的观察和推断。

5 .That was—and still is—a novel idea, and—for many teachers—not the easiest thing to do.

8 .For a young child playing with these graduated blocks, these uh, brown stairs, they are not just a sensorial lesson.

对于把玩这些进阶型积木的小孩子,这些褐色的积木不仅仅是一个感官的训练。

9 .By manipulating them, the child develops fine motor skills and by sorting and classifying them by size, by weight, the child learns some basic mathematics.…

通过操纵它们,孩子发展了精细的运动技能,通过按大小和重量分类,孩子学习一些基本的数学运算。

10 .Similarly, with Practical Life equipment, the child can learn how to button a shirt, cut up an apple for a snack, and, uh, other real-world tasks.

2 .Well, Montessori teachers wouldn't praise a child for using a violin as a baseball bat or for putting it on their head like a hat.

好的,很多蒙台梭利老师都不会表扬孩子用小提琴当棒球棒或像一顶帽子一样戴在他们的头。

3 .But, actually, creativity comes through learning to play the violin, using the object for the purpose it was intended, and Practical Life exercises stress that.

但事实上,创造力来自于学习拉小提琴,来自于为了达到目的而使用某些事物,并且日常生活练习强调了这一点。
