It is beard by a full-time staff and specialized agencies, which has purpose, systematic, and organized. School education wants to influence the physical and mental development of the educated as a di

5、rect target. Because of the same propose of school education, there are some similarities in the education of Britain and China. The similarities include the below factors: 1. Both in China and Britain, school education includes primary education, secondary education and higher education. 2. Emphasi

6、ze the development of students on Educational philosophy. Britain experts stress such an educational philosophy, Every Child Matters. This is reflected in ensuring the safety of children, ensuring the health of children, ensuring them enjoy school life, ensuring them learn something and receive some

7、thing, and ensuring them know how to make a positive contribution to the society. This is interlinked with Chinas Three All (which means all for students, for students in all and for all students) in essence. 3. Emphasize teachers professional development and continuing education in teachers trainin

8、g. Both China and Britain attach importance to the professionalism of teachers, focus on training their own quality. 精品文档精品文档 Because of different history, culture and economic strength, China and Britain have different education ways, mainly reflected in educational thinking and educational methods

9、.1.the different thinking: China attaches importance to the knowledge-education, but Britain attaches importance to the capacity-education. With the deep influence of Confuciuss idea, China focuses on the importance of knowledge education. Teachers teach students whatever textbooks have; the examina

10、tion can not break away from textbooks. Even when children go home after school, parents still ask them to take out their textbooks and let them consolidate the content they have learned in the class, then familiar with the new content; they can not get rid of the fixed framework of knowledge-educat

11、ion model. But the British teachers focus on capacity-education, they stress that the students can familiar with the things and phenomena what they want to know about, then under teachers instruction and guidance, they can find the right answers and discover new knowledge. British teachers pay more

12、attention to train the childrens sense of independence, and let them to take the initiative. 2. The different method: the two countries have different ways to achieve its goal in education, for instant, the British students learn more subjects than the Chinese students while the Chinese student have

13、 to study in school for longer time; the class generally consists of more than 60 students, twice of the British.; the teaching way in China is almost the teachers lectures while in Britain, the students do 精品文档精品文档 experiment by themselves and discuss more. 3. The difference also reflects in the ce

14、ntre of the class. The teaching class in China takes teachers as the center. In lectures and discussions, students prefer to the former. Students hope teachers can teach all of the knowledge about one theme, but not willing to be asked questions by teachers. In the traditional class in China, we alw

15、ays can see that teachers stand on the platform relating things from beginning to ending, but not ask for questions. The teaching class in Britain takes students as the center. Teach and learn is decided by student at large extent. The class looks like a discussion meeting-place, teachers appear as

16、the status of macroscopic monitors, they teach little, and give time to students. Teachers dont use great effort to explain the question clearly, but try to guide students to finds themselves. In this class, students must throw themselves in actively thought, so it produces enthusiastic and vivid di

17、scussion. When students meet questions that they are hard to understand, they will ask teachers for help immediately and teachers will try to guide students thought once again until questions are all be solved. Of course, this continuous communication between teachers and students is good to student

18、s study, it at large extent developed the students ability of independent thinking. In addition, there is also difference between the two countries in other aspects. Britain has more compulsory years of education than China (11years in Britain and 9 years in China), while the higher education has 精品

19、文档精品文档 less years, British education spend only three years in university and one year to get a master degree. And term arrangements are also different. There are two semesters in China and the Britain has three terms. The distribution system of teachers between China and Britain is also different a

20、nd so on. All of these reasons result from different teaching methods. From the difference of education between UK and China, we our group members conclude that there is something of British education worth reading. Firstly, student is the center of the class in Britain and they can choose what to l

21、earn and how to learn. Their teachers martiain that the aim of students study is to know new things, but not to recite contents they have known. This type of class arise students great interest in studying. Secondly, the Chinese teachers teach student what to know and how to do while the British tea

22、chers are just guiders. Students are encouraged to search information of the new things they are interested by themselves and do experiment to discover something new. No one would tell you what to learn, how to go, what you need to do is to explore, to try, to find by yourself. It really benefits st

23、udents and improve their independence. We have talked about the primary school and middle school but how about the higher education such the universities. As we all know, the Oxford University and Cambridge University is the world-famous 精品文档精品文档 universities in Britain. When the cabinet ministers o

24、f UK went to universities, they nearly all went to one or the other of these two. As the world-famous universities, what are the features of these two universities are most admired? The two widely admired features of Oxford and Cambridge: are the college system and the tutorial system. The college s

25、ystem of Oxford and Cambridge: is one whereby all students live in college during at least part of their course. The relation between universities and the college is just like that between the central government and local government in United Stated, the Oxford University and Cambridge University pr

26、escribes syllabi, arranges examination and award degree. The college is responsible for the students life and the standard and the time of admitting students is decided by each college. The value of this system lies in fostering a community spirit in which a useful mingling of intelligence can take

27、place. In our opinion, the college system should be extended to our countries because this kind of system take the characteristics and the different The different requirements of the development of different majors into account, and universities provide more freedom for its college and meanwhile in

28、the end of a year, the university can rank for the college in accordance with the results of all college undergraduates, according to certain rules of scoring. The ranking can promote competition between colleges. 精品文档精品文档 The other feature that is widely admired is the tutorial system of Oxford and

29、 Cambridge. It is one whereby each student gets personal tuition once a week in his tutors own room. Each student get personal tuition once a week in his or her tutors room, sitting in an armchair and reading out an essay which he or she the tutor then discuss. This, with a weekly programmer of priv

30、ate study, is considered so important at Oxford and Cambridge. The tutorial system benefits students a lot since it provide students opportunity to communicate with his or her tutor and discuss problems with them, and also they can ask questions conveniently when they are confused, In this way, it d

31、oes help students to broaden horizons and encourage the ungraduates to think more when question is given out by their tutors therefore it is of great importance to extend this tutorial system in our country if we want to Improve the quality of the higher education. However it seems not easy to come

32、true in China for lack of teachers and large number of ungraduates .In my college, we also have the tutorial system. A team of four students has a tutor while we didnt meet once a week let along discuss topics together. Even I just meet my tutor since the first term of my university. So in our country, tutorial system exists but do
