最近，一部BBC拍摄的纪录片引发了中国和国际社会的关注。这部纪录片叫做《我们的孩子足够坚强吗？中式学校》（Are Our Kids Tough Enough? Chinese School），一共有3集，主要讲述了5名中国教师在英国的一所公立中学，实施4周中式教学实验的故事。
50名英国学生参加了这个教学实验。在4个星期的时间里，他们要穿统一的校服，每天早上7点到校，在校时间长达12小时，中间有两次吃饭休息时间。每周还要举行一次升国旗的仪式。课堂上学生们以记笔记为主，放学前他们还要负责打扫教室。对于不听话的学生，老师会让他们出去罚站，甚至请家长来学校谈话。在中国，学生们对于以上这些都非常熟悉，但纪录片中的英国学生却感到很新奇。有不少英国学生对中国老师的教育方法产生了负面情绪，但也有学生表示认同。一个月之后，这50个英国学生和同年级其他学生一起，参加了一场考试。最终中式实验班在数学、科学、中文等科目上的成绩均优于英国学生班。分别的时候，老师和学生都很舍不得，就连平时不听话的学生也掉下了眼泪，表示这是他们一生中难忘的经历。
BBC的发言人说，中国上海的学生在PISA（国际学生评估项目）测试中获得第一名，而英国学生的排名很差。他们希望通过做这个教学实验，把中国传统教育搬到英国学校，看看是否能得到启发。
这部纪录片播出后，大部分外国网民批评英国学生缺乏纪律性，说他们不尊重老师。很多中国网民对这个教学实验产生了质疑，说纪录片中的教学方法并不能代表现在中国的教育方式。我认为，西方教育以鼓励和启发为主，中国教育需要学生有很强的自律性，直接把中国教育照搬到英国学校，对于老师和学生来说都很难适应。但是作为一个电视节目，这部纪录片能够吸引观众，引发人们的关注和讨论，就算是成功的。
亲爱的读者，你对这部纪录片有什么样的看法呢？欢迎留言与我们讨论！

English: China’s education style
Recently a BBC documentary gained attention in China and internationally. This documentary was called – Are Our Kids Tough Enough? Chinese School). In all there were three parts. The main thing talked about was an experiment in which five teachers from China implemented Chinese teaching practices at a state school in England.
Fifty British students took part in this experiment (1). Over the course of four weeks they had to wear unifying (2) school uniforms and they had to arrive at school by 7 a.m every morning. Their school day was extended to twelve hours, with two breaks for meals and rest. Every week they also had to carry out a flag raising ceremony. The students mainly took notes in class (4) and before leaving school they were even responsible for cleaning the classroom.
As for the students that didn’t behave (3), the teachers would have them go out and stand still as a punishment and would even have their parents come to the school for a talk. Students in China are very familiar with these things but the English students in the documentary felt these things to be rather strange.
Not a small number of the English students developed negative feelings about the teaching methods of the Chinese teachers but there were also some students who expressed approval of the methods.
After a month these fifty students and their fellow students in the same year of study took an exam.
In the end, the results of the students in the experimental Chinese class uniformly surpassed those of the English group in maths, science and Chinese. On bidding each other farewell the teachers and the students found parting difficult and even those students who had misbehaved shed a tear or two indicating that this was an unforgettable experience in their lives.
The BBC announcer said the class in Shanghai came first in the PISA test (an international assessment of students) whereas the British students did extremely poorly. They hoped that by having done this experiment some of the traditional Chinese teaching methods could be transferred to Britain to see whether this would create some stimulation (5).
After the televising of this documentary the majority of foreign netizens criticised the lack of discipline among the English students saying they didn’t show respect toward their teachers. A great many Chinese netizens questioned this experiment saying that the teaching method in the documentary can’t really represent modern Chinese teaching methods.
I believe western education gives priority to encouragement and inspiring students while Chinese education requires much autonomy from the students. So directly taking Chinese methods and blindly applying them in a British school makes it very difficult for the students and teachers to adapt.
But as a television program this documentary was able to draw an audience and trigger discussion so it can be considered successful.
Dear readers, what opinion do you have of this documentary? Everyone is welcome to leave a message and discuss it with us.
1. After some consideration, even though the Chinese has ‘education experiment’ I’ve left out the ‘education’ part as I’ve decided that it sounds too awkward in English. Given they are students I think in English it’s just accepted that this would be an experiment to do with education and it wouldn’t be specifically mentioned.
2. Certainly an awkward word in English. If I’ve got the meaning correct then I suspect that in English it would take a whole clause to get the meaning across without it sounding awkward.
3. Given that these two words seem really obvious, I should point out that this really refers to ‘behaving’ / ‘heeding what an elder says’. It’s worth consulting a good dictionary on this one if you’re not familiar with the expression.
4. I found this phrase difficult. It’s important to remember the second meaning of 记 – to take notes.
5. Admittedly ‘create some stimulation’ is rather awkward.
