APassage FiveThiswas no ordinary class. The students who came together were all science orengineering professors at Cornell University. They had interrupted theirresearch to accept an invitation to take part in an unusual experiment :"an interesting week of poetry. "This class was part of a study toanswer the questions:Why is science difficult for many nonscience students?What can teachers learn about teaching if they take a class that is not intheir field?The students in the poetry class listened to lectures and tooknotes. They had reading tasks and had to write three short papers. Allstudents noticed one thing--the importance of spoken words. In science andengineering classes, the instructors put tables and drawings on the blackboard.But in this poetry class, the instructors just talked. They didn′t writeanything on the board.The scientists and engineers noticed one similarity betweenscience and poetry. In both subjects,students need to find layers(层次 of meaning. Some layers are simple, clear, and on the surface;otherlayers are deeper and more difficult. This search for different levels ofmeaning doesn′t happen much in undergraduate(本科)science classes, but it is important later, in graduate school.And it is alwaysimportant in humanities(人文科学).Both the poetry instructors and theirstudents learned something about teaching from this experience. One poetryinstructor, for example, now sees the importance of using careful, cleardefinitions (定义) when he explains a poem. He also plans tobe more informative as he teaches. Most of the scientists agreed on severalpoints. First ,humanities classes might help science students to see patterns anddecide which information is important. Second, the poetry class was fun. Oneengineer decided, "We need to change the way we teach engineering to makeit an enjoyable experience for students. "But perhaps the most important result of the experience was this:All of the professors began to think about how they teach and how they canteach better.[单选题] What do we know about thisunusual class? 查看材料 A.The teachers did lots of writing on theboard.
