中国数学课本引入英国，九九乘法表要称霸欧洲了吗?!

从小，上帝就为我关上了一扇窗，它的名字是【数学】。什么几何、代数、抛物线啥啥，都好难。每次打开数学课本，总觉得它们认识我，而我从没见过它们。

正当我饱受数学折磨后，突然看到外媒报道中国的数学课本被引入了英国学校!

英国《卫报》(The Guardian)报道:"英国翻译中国数学课本，并引进学校。"

报道主要内容是，英国一教育机构与上海某出版社达成交易，将把中国的数学课本直接翻译成英文，随后投入英国的学校使用。

同时还指出，中国学校(上海和江苏省)的数学成绩评分，排在全球第五，而英国才排到了27位，和捷克、葡萄牙并列。

British students may soon study mathematics with Chinese textbooks after a "historic" deal between HarperCollins and a Shanghai publishing house in which books will be translated for use in UK schools.

Chinese schools, represented by those in the wealthier cities of Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, as well as Jiangsu province, ranked fifth in maths scores, according to a recent global study by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.

真没想到英国人的数学和中国差距那么大!(隐隐的英式嫌弃和傲娇脸)

主要原因是中英两国教育方式相差甚远。

看点

中国VS英国:数学课

1. "授人以鱼不如授人以渔"

在上海的数学课，老师会花一整节课来学习乘法交换律。在英国，老师会教学生如何做这道数学题，而不传授这个方法背后的规律。

In Singapore or Shanghai a class will, for example, spend an entire lesson learning about the commutative law of multiplication. Pupils taught in England might learn how to do the maths, without being taught the law behind it.

真不是因为，国外没有九九乘法表吗??

2. 中国有拖堂和开小灶，英国到点就下课。

在上海的学校里，如果学生没有充分理解今天上的知识，在当天往往会有额外的教学(就是拖堂，和开小灶)。而这样的方式在英国是很有限的。

In a Shanghai school, if a pupil has not fully understood the lesson, there is often additional teaching on the same day to ensure they are ready to start the next day's lesson at the same point as the rest of the class. Resources are likely to be more limited in an English classroom.

3. 中国学生家庭作业多，还上补习班。

中国学生有很多家庭作业，同时双休日也会参加很多补习班，来巩固自己学到的知识。而英国的学生，一放学就放任自由了...

Another key difference is that students in south Asian countries are likely to get far more homework, which reinforces the day's studies. Many will also have private tutoring and attend weekend school.

4. 中国数学老师教学经验丰富。

中国很重视老师的培训。像上海小学数学老师，很多都是专家。他们花5年的时间，在大学学习如何教小学的数学。

There are also huge differences in teacher training and deployment. Primary school maths teachers in Shanghai are specialists, who will have spent five years at university studying primary maths teaching.

当然，"出口课本"这事儿，严格来说不是第一次。就像全球那么多孔子学院，大部分教材也是中国老师编的呀。

只不过，孔子学院是偏文化输出，而这次数学教材是偏"硬学科"，不仅仅出口书，也是输出整个教学方式!

所以，这可以算是中国数学教育的胜利!

对这事儿，中国网友的评论也是段子迭出。
