作為一個公司理財領域世界著名學者的Aswath Damodaranth ,除了其了不起的專業貢獻,其教學哲學也非常值得學習!以下引自其網站(中國是用Translate翻譯的)。
這聽起來像是陳詞濫調,但我喜歡教學。 除了在教室前教我喜歡嘗試改變人們的思維和行為方式的話題外,我別無所求。 以下是一些我堅守(但有時未能做到)的核心信念:
準備很關鍵:釋義愛迪生,教學是90%的汗水和10%的靈感。 如果您為上課做好準備,那麼您就很容易成為一名好老師。
尊重你的學生:當我還是學生的時候,我並不在乎那些看不起他們的學生的老師,因為他們的學習不足,或者缺乏動力。 我相信,坐在我教室裡的每個人都和我一樣有能力,儘管可能沒有那麼有經驗,並且對學習充滿熱情。
公平:我不相信學生會討厭或懲罰嚴厲的老師,但我確實相信他們會在測試學生或對學生評分的過程中不喜歡和懲罰不公平的老師。 我知道我會犯錯,但是隻要我敞開大門並糾正錯誤,我認為學生會減少我的懈怠。
有同理心:自從我在教室裡讀書以來已經有很長的時間了,但是我想通過記住自己在課堂上喜歡和不喜歡的東西並儘量不重複這些來保持記憶。
教學不只是在課堂上:您對學生的影響不僅僅來自您在課堂上所做的事情。 它受到的影響也一樣大,但是您在課堂上,上班時間以及與學生的互動(在線和麵對面)中所做的工作也受到同樣的影響。
玩得開心:如果您觀察幼兒在學習新事物時所表現出的快樂,那麼顯然人類會喜歡學習(儘管我們的教育系統通常旨在消除這種快樂)。 我希望自己的課程富有意義,影響力和深度,但我也希望他們有趣。 為此,我必須有有趣的教學,我會的!
Teaching:Philosophy
Aswath Damodaran
This may sound like a cliche, but I love teaching. There is nothing else I would rather do than be in front of a classroom, teaching a topic that I enjoy trying to alter the way people think and act. Here are some of the core beliefs that I try to stay true to (but sometimes fail to):
Preparation is key: Paraphrasing Edison, teaching is 90% perspiration and 10% inspiration. If you are prepared for your class, you are well on your way to being a good teacher.
Respect your students: I did not care for those teachers that I had, when I was a student, that looked down on their students, either as being less learned than they were or less motivated. I believe that anyone who sits on my classroom is as capable as I am, though perhaps not as experienced, and is passionate about learning.
Be fair: I don't believe that students dislike or punish tough teachers, but I do believe that they dislike and punish teachers who are unfair, either in the way they test students or in the way they grade them. I know that I will make mistakes, but as long as I keep an open door and correct my mistakes, I think that students will cut me some slack.
Have empathy: It has been a long time since I was a student in a classroom, but I try to keep my memory fresh by remembering the things I liked and disliked in my classes and trying not to repeat them.
Teaching is not just in the classroom: Your impact on students does not come just from what what you do in the classroom. It is affected just as much but what you do outside the classroom, in your office hours and in your interactions (online and in person) with your students.
Have fun: If you look at the joy that young children show when they learn something new, it is obvious that human beings enjoy learning (though our education systems are often designed to stamp out that joy). I want my classes to be meaningful, impactful and profound, but I also want them to be fun. For that to happen, I have to have fun teaching and I will!
