Because the education system in China is very different from that in Britain, many foreign students will feel uncomfortable and confused when studying in Britain, mainly because they don't understand the characteristics of British education. In order to let everyone have a more detailed understanding of the educational characteristics of Britain, so as to integrate into the study and life of Britain as soon as possible, I will make a detailed analysis of the educational characteristics of Britain:
1, there are no unified textbooks and fixed textbooks.
British universities have no unified teaching materials, and students have no fixed teaching materials. Your textbook is the book of the whole library. Tutors will choose the latest and most promising content to teach according to the trends and needs of social development.
2. Group-guided "learning"
Unlike students in China, who are always concerned about their studies, they lack research in group discussions. In Britain, small and informal group instruction is usually arranged after class and lectures. You can freely exchange views and opinions with teachers. This is also a learning process that encourages new ideas and methods.
3. Less exams
There are not too many exams in British universities, but students' massive curriculum design, course assignments and live demonstrations have greatly exercised people's practical ability. In this way, under the influence of British education, you can not only master the subject knowledge comprehensively, but also have the ability to analyze and solve problems, which is also more valued by future employers.
4. Equality between teachers and students
Since ancient times, teachers in China have always given students a dignified attitude and made them look superior. In Britain, teachers and students are completely equal, and teachers don't feel superior. Students can also call their teachers by their first names. The classroom atmosphere in English schools is very different from that in China. Teachers and students can communicate freely in class, and teachers also want students to ask questions. Most students in China are deficient in this respect.
5. The government strictly supervises the quality of education.
The British government has a strict supervision system on the quality of education. Every school, continuing education and higher education institution must accept strict supervision and inspection, from providing services and assistance to students to the quality of teachers. The organization responsible for this work is called Quality Assurance Agency (QAA). QAA evaluates each course fairly and objectively according to a unified and strict standard (full score of 24), so that the government and the public can better understand the teaching quality of each school in the same major.
