Keys to Successful Online Learning

While regular schools still exist, the virtual classroom plays an important role in today's learning community. Job opportunities for students are expanding rapidly and more people of all ages are becoming aware of online learning that allows them to study at home. Online students, however, require unique qualities to be successful. The following list discusses some ideal qualities of successful online students.

1. Be open-minded about sharing life, work, and learning experiences as part of online learning. Many people find that the online method requires them to use their experiences and that online learning offers them a place to communicate with each other. This forum for communication removes the visual barriers that hinder some students from expressing themselves. In addition, students are given time to reflect on the information before replying. In this way, students can help to keep the online environment open and friendly.

2. Be able to communicate through writing. In the virtual classroom nearly all communication is written, so it is critical that students feel comfortable expressing themselves in writing. Some students have limited writing abilities, which need to be improved before or as part of the online experience. This usually requires extra commitment by these students. Whether working alone or in a group, students share ideas, perspectives and discussions on the subject being studied, and read about those of their classmates. In this way, students gain great insights from their peers, learning from each other as well as the instructor.

3. Be willing to "speak up" if problems arise. Remember that instructors cannot see their students in an online course. This means students must be absolutely explicit with their comments and requests. If they experience technical difficulties, or problems in understanding something about the course, they MUST speak up; otherwise there is no way anyone can know something is wrong. If one person does not understand something, possibly several others have the same problem. If another student is able to help, he or she probably will. While explaining something to others, students reinforce their own knowledge about the subject.

4. Take the program seriously. Online learning is not easier than study in regular classrooms.

In fact, many students say it requires much more time and effort. Requirements for online courses are no less than those of any other quality program. Successful online students, however, see online learning as a convenient way to receive their education—not an easier way. Many online students sit at computers for hours at a time during evenings and on weekends in order to complete their assignments. When other people are finished with their work and studies and having fun, you'll most likely find online students doing their course work. Online students need to commit 4 to 15 hours a week to each course.

5. Accept critical thinking and decision making as part of online learning. Online courses require students to make decisions based on facts as well as experience. It is absolutely necessary for students to assimilate information and make the right

decisions based on critical thinking. In a positive online environment, students feel valued by the instructor and by their classmates and feel good about their own work.

6. Be able to think ideas through before replying. Providing meaningful and quality input into the virtual classroom is an essential part of online learning. Time is given to allow for careful development of answers. Testing and challenging of ideas is encouraged. Online students will not always be right, so they need to be prepared to accept a challenge.

7. Keep up with the progress of the course. Online learning is normally sequential and requires commitment on the students' part. Keeping up with the class and completing all the work on time is vital. Once students get behind, it is almost impossible to catch up. Students need to want to be there and need to want the experience. The instructor may have to communicate with students personally to offer help and remind them of the need to keep up.

Just as many excellent instructors may not be effective online facilitators, not all students have the necessary qualities to perform well online. People who have the qualities discussed above usually make very successful online students. If you have these qualities, learning online may be one of the best discoveries you will ever make. Statements based on the passage:

1. Online learning is essential addition to today’s learning community though regular

schools still exist.

2. According to the author,, requirement of special qualities is vital to those

successful online students.

3. In the virtual classroom of online learning almost all communication is spoken.

4. Those students who have limited writing abilities need to improve them by

themselves because writing abilities are critical to them when they are learning online.

5. Working alone, online students cannot share their ideas, opinions or discussions

on the subject being studied.

6. Online students should speak up when they come across problems in

understanding something about the course, or technical difficulties.

7. According to the passage, onli ne students won’t meet any technical difficulties

whether working alone or in a group.

8. Taking the course seriously is one of some ideal qualities of successful online students.

9. Often successful online students take online learning as an easier way rather than

a convenient way to receive their education.

10. Online students need to spend averagely 10 hours a week working on each course.

Section B Passage Reading

Passage 1

Many teachers in the United States believe that the responsibility for learning lies with students. If a long reading assignment is given, instructors expect students to be familiar with the information in the reading even if they do not discuss it in class or are given an examination. (Courses are not designed merely for students to pass exams.) The ideal students is considered to be one who is encouraged to learn for the purpose of learning, not the one interested only in getting high grades. Some students may be frustrated with teachers who do not believe it is necessary to grade every assignment. Sometimes homework is returned with short written comments but without a grade. Even if a grade is not given, students should learn the material assigned.

When research is assigned, the professor expects students to begin and to complet e the assignment with minimum instruction. It is the students’ responsibility to find books and articles in the library. Professors do not have the time to explain how a university library works; they expect students, especially graduate students, to be able to find what they need in the library.

Professors will help students who need them, but prefer that their students not depend on them too much. This is different from teacher-student relationships in other countries. In the United States, professors have other duties in addition to teaching. Often they do some administrative work within their departments. In addition, they may be required to write articles and books. Therefore, the time that a professor can spend with a student outside of class is limited. If a student has problems with classroom work, the student should either ask a professor for help during office hours or make an appointment.

A. Guide to Learning at College in the USA

Passage 2

Some people seem to have a knack (诀窍) for learning languages. They can pick up new vocabulary, master rules of grammar and learn to write in the new language more quickly than others. So what makes language learning so much easier for them? Perhaps, we may discover a few of the techniques, which help us, learn the language more easily.

First of all, successful language learners are independent learners. They discover their own ways to learn the language. Instead of waiting for the teachers to explain it, they try to find the pattern and rules for themselves. They are good guessers who look for clues and form their own conclusions and when they guess wrong, they guess again. They try to learn from their mistakes.

Successful language learners are active in learning, therefore they do not wait for a chance to use the language, and they look for such a chance. They find people who speak the language and let those people correct them, when they make a mistake. They will try anything to communicate. They are not afraid to repeat what they hear

or to say strange things, they are willing to make mistakes and try again, and when communication is difficult, they can accept information that is incorrect or incomplete. It is more important for them to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every word.

Finally, successful language learners are learners with purpose. They want to learn a language because they are interested in the language and the people who speak it. It is necessary for them to learn the language in order to communicate with these people and to learn from them. They find it easy to practice using the language regularly because they want to learn it. What kind of language learners are you?

16. The passage indicates that to be a successful foreign language learner, one must be ______.

A. good at the rules and patterns

B. independent, active and purposeful

C. passionate about the language

D. independent, active and accurate

17. Active learners do NOT ______.

A. make grammatical mistakes during conversations and learn from them

B. study hard at the language so as to use the right grammar and exact words

C. try to imitate what they hear even when they may not fit in the current talks

D. talk about all subjects in a foreign language and keep the conversation going

18. All are the characteristics of independent learners EXCEPT that ______.

A. they discover the pattern and rules of the language before classes

B. they develop their own methods when studying a foreign language

C. they make guesses when meet with difficulties and learn from them

D. they do not wait for a chance to use the language with foreigners

19. The word "purpose" in Line 1, Para. 4 refers to ______.

A. the studying on grammar, structure, and vocabulary

B. the enjoyment in all kinds of talks with foreigners

C. learning about the foreign countries and their people

D. practicing the foreign language on a regular basis

20. The main purpose of this passage is ______.

A. to introduce advanced foreign language learning skills

B. to introduce learning methods of active language learners

C. to give examples on how to become independent learners

D. to introduce qualities of successful language learners

Section C Reading in Depth

Good communication is the key to success when learning online. You should take the opportunity to get to know your teacher and classmates through email and by participating in Internet discussions. This will lead to a more positive and 21 learning experience.

It’s true that learning the technology needed to take part in a class can at times be 22 . For example, you may need to ask how to 23 your assignment on the Web. But’ don’t worry! If you have a problem, ask for help. There’s no such thing as a stupid question, so there is no need to be intimidated or 24 . Sharing 25 and answers freely is what makes the Internet such a great medium for learning.

Online classroom teacher Mike Roberts was asked about what he thought the greatest 26 of online learning is. “As a teacher, I need the students to ask questions so that I know what areas of my lessons need further 27 . That’s what is great about teaching and learning over the Internet. In an ordinary classroom, time is limited, so students seem to ask the 28 amount of questions possible. But in the 29 classroom, students are always asking questions. They really seem to feel 30 asking me for the information that they need. They also share a lot of valuable ideas with each o ther in a way that you don’t usually see in a regular classroom.”

考研英语与大学英语四六级的区别

考研英语与大学英语四六级的区别 准备考研的同学大部分都考过英语四、六级,那么是英语六级难还是考研英语难,有些同学英语六级考了560分,但考研只得了50分,有些同学本科是英语专业过了专业八级,但考研也只得56分,究其原因,是因为英语四、六级与考研英语是完全不同的两个体系的考试。 四、六级是资格考试,只要能达到了一定的水平就能得高分。而考研英语是筛选性的考试,每年国家招的人数是有限制的,因此国家会利用英语这门考试筛选一部分人。考研英语与六级考试有四点不同。 一、考试的题型不同 考研的题型有完型、传统阅读、新题型、翻译、作文。其中完型由280个单词构成,给出20个空,每空2.5分,共10分,这道题全国的均分是2.5-3.5分,此题考查同学们的词组搭配,语法和语感能力。传统阅读由4篇文章构成,每篇文章400个单词,5个问题,每题2分,一共20个问题,共计40分。新题型是国家取消研究生入学考试听力以后新加的题型,此题来源于博士研究生入学考试的题型。翻译是平衡整张试卷难度的。如果前面出的题难就会出2个长难句,3个简单句;如果前面的题简单,此题就会出3个长难句2个简单句。建议大家把真题中的阅读认真翻译一遍,真题阅读是翻译的好的范本。作文由一篇小作文和一篇大作文构成,其中小作文10分,要求写一篇100个单词的应用文,大作文20分,要求写一篇160-200个单词的议论文,万学海文有一个超级作文模版,此模版用哲学的观点把世间万物分为4类,此模版把一篇作文变成了一个填空题,只要大家把议论的事物填进去,便可得一个很好的分数。 二、单词考核的侧重点不同 四、六级考试一般考单词的前一两个常用的意思,而考研英语考单词的最后两个意思。2005年研究生入学考试英语作文题讲得是赡养老人的问题,赡养这个单词很多同学都不会写,其实很简单就用support,可能大家只知道support有支持,提供的意思,但忘记了它还有赡养的意思。 三、语法考核的侧重点不同 四、六级考试重点考核词法,如名词、动词、形容词、介词等等,而考研英语侧重考核语法,如宾语从句、状语从句、倒装句等等。 四、文章选材与命题思路不同 四、六级考试的文章一般选自描写风土人情、人物传记的文章或小小说等,考研英语文章选自科技论文,外文期刊综述,外国产品说明书等。四、六级考试的文章大家读懂了就可以做对,但是考研英语的文章大家读懂了,也不一定做对。比如四、六会问是哪个教练带领中国足球冲向世界,但考研英语会问为什么黑哨在足球联比赛中屡禁不止。 大家了解了考研英语与四、六级的区别后,就可以采用科学合理的方法复习英语。很多同学在背单词的时候有三大误区。 一、记一个单词的时间太长,有的同学记一个单词会用5分钟,这就浪费了4分钟10秒,人的记忆力在50秒时达到顶峰,再往后就急剧下降,所以大家在记单词时要加大单位时间内的频率。这就如同我们见到了一个美女,若我们和她谈一个小时,一个月后我们不一定还记得她,但是若我们每天和她谈5分钟,连续12天,相信2个月后,这个美女长什么样子,穿什么衣服,我们还记得一清二楚。 二、喜欢记熟悉的单词,很多同学背单词会从字母a开始,背了几天后发现自己还在背以字母a开头的单词,于是又从z开始背,结果背了几天还在以字母z开头的单词里。最后认识的还是认识,不会的照样不会。建议大家记单词时把生词做个标记,下次看时重点看生词。 三、边背边写,这个习惯也不好。因为考研英语词汇分为5级,其中大家只要记住一级

People still avoid him as though he were poison. 5.他不久就爱上了这个村子。他决心和村民一起把这个地方变成一个花园。 He soon fell in love withthe village and was determined to make it a beautiful garden together with other villager. 6.我们必须花更多的钱来和全球气温上升作斗争。另外,我认为我们还必须采用严厉的法律措施。这不只是一个钱的问题。 We must spend more money fighting against global warming. In addition, we must resort to tough laws.

Learning in an order and carrying on, each day to learn the task to be done. We are always looking for the universities to work on memory, even if in a dream we have to call it the same as calling the name of God. In short, for we are looking forward to university life and hope. This is because eating and seemed to be ideal to achieve through it. However, I am pleased that we feel that an ideal is always full and satisfied. Vision for the future, we make it through college enrichment, it is a matter of pride.

大学英语3第一单元试题(含答案)

Online HomeWork_U1B3 I. Reading Comprehension Section A Fast Reading Back in a tiny village near Nuremberg, lived a family with eighteen children. Just to keep food on the table for the family members, the father worked almost eighteen hours a day. Two of Albrecht Durer the Elder’s children, Albrecht and Albert, wanted to pursue talent for art, but they knew that their father would never be financially able to send either of them to Nuremberg to study at the academy. After many discussions, the two boys decided to toss a coin. The loser would go down into the nearby mines and, with his earnings, support his brother while he attended the academy. Then, when that brother who won the coin toss completed his studies, he would support the other brother at the academy, either with the sales of his artwork or, if necessary, also by laboring in the mines. They tossed a coin after coming back from church on a Sunday morning. Albrecht Durer won the toss and went off to Nuremberg. Albert went down into the dangerous mines and financed his brother, whose work at the academy was an almost immediate sensation. Albrecht’s etchings (版画), woodcuts (木刻画) and oils were far better than those of most of his professors, and by the time he graduated, he was beginning to earn considerable fees for his commissioned works. When Albrecht Durer returned to his village, the family held a big dinner to celebrate Albrecht’s homecoming. After the meal, Albrecht rose to drink a toast to his beloved brother for the sacrifice that had enabled Albrecht to fulfill his ambition. He said, “Albert, now it is your turn to go to Nuremberg to pursue your dream, and I will take care of you.” Albert rose and glanced down the long table at the faces he loved, and said softly, “No, brother. Look what four years in the mines have done to my hands! The bones in every finger have been smashed at least once, and lately I have been suffering from arthritis (关节炎) so badly in my right hand that I cannot even hold a glass to return your toast, much less make delicate lines on canvas (画布) with a brush.” By now, Albrecht Durer’s hundreds of masterful portraits, sketches and woodcuts hang in every great museum in the world, but most people are familiar with only one of Albrecht Durer’s works. More than merely being familiar with it, you very well may have a reproduction hanging in your home or office. To pay homage to Albert, Albrecht Durer drew his brother’s hands with palms together and thin fingers stretched skyward. He called his drawing “Hands,” but the entire world immediately opened their hearts to his great masterpiece and named it “The Praying Hands.” Statements based on the passage: T 1. The father of Durer family could not afford any child’s study at the academy. F 2. Albrecht and Albert had to toss a coin to decide who should go to the academy, because one of them had to stay at home and help their father. F 3. Before deciding to toss a coin, Albrecht and Albert had many discussions with their father. T 4. Albrecht achieved great success at the academy, and his works were even better than most of his professors’. F 5. Albrecht decided to support Albert’s study at the academy with the sales of his artwork and by laboring in the mines. F 6. Albert said it was too late for him to go to the academy because he was no longer interested in art after working in the mines for many years. F 7. Although Albrecht had many masterful portraits, only one of them has received popular recognition. T 8. Among Albrecht’s works, “Hands” is the one which is reproduced most. T 9. Albrecht created “Hands” in order to show respect and honor for his brother Albert. F 10. People renamed Albrecht’s drawing “The Praying Hands” because they just wanted to pay homage to his great achievement. Section B Passage Reading Passage 1 Valentine’s Day probably has its origin in the ancient Roman celebration called Lupercalia(牧神节). It was celebrated on February 15. In the Roman calendar February was in the spring. The celebration honored the gods Lupercus and Faunus as well as the twin brothers Romulus and Remus, the legendary founders of Rome. As part of the ceremony the priests paired up young men and women. The girls’ names were placed in a box and each boy drew a girl’s name. The couple was paired then until the next Lupercalia. In 260 AD the emperor Claudius II, called Claudius the Cruel, decided that young soldiers would only be distracted by marriage and so ordered that young men may not marry. Valentinus (Valentine), a Christian priest, defied the emperor and got married in secret. He was caught and executed on February 14, the eve of Lupercalia. His name became associated with young love forever after. In 496, Pope Gelasius set aside February 14 to honor him as Saint Valentine and it has been St. Valentine’s Day ever since. In the Middle Ages some of the customs of the Lupercalia still persisted in spite of the attempts of the Church to put an end to these non-Christian customs and Christianize the holiday. Both men and women drew names from a bowl to see who their valentines would be. They would wear the names on their sleeves for a week. Today we still sometimes “wear our hearts on our sleeves” when we cannot conceal our feelings. In the 1600s, it became common to give flowers, particularly the rose, as a sign of love as the “language of flowers”. This came to Europe from Turkey. The color and placement of the rose held a special significance--a red rose, for example, meant beauty. Flowers have been part of Valentine’s Day ever since. D 11. What does the passage mainly tell us? A. The custom of Valentine’s Day. B. A story about how Valentinus defied the emperor. C. The relationship between marriage and religion. D. The origin of Valentine’s Day. B 12. Young soldiers were not allowed to marry because the emperor was afraid that ______. A. they would associate with St. Valentine B. they wouldn’t concentrate on their job C. they would defy the emperor’s order D. they were too young to marry
