大学老师怎么看待慢学生?  

What do professors think of slow learners in the classroom?
When I was five years old
I played the role of the turtle in a play anized by my older sister. I had one line at the end
when I beat the sleeping rabbit to the finish line: slow and steady wins the race.
I’ve always felt that those words guided my career. I was never the fastest; I was rarely an A student.
我总是感觉那些话对我的事业有指导作用，我从来不是最快的，我几乎没得过A。
But as the careers of others stalled
I kept going.
My goal was always the same: to learn more this year than I had last year.
When I see slow students
that’s what I think of.
Are those the students who will keep Learning over their entire lifetime
and leave the “quick” students far behind?
Some people have difficulty with particular topics. They may also have a slow deliberate style.
I don’t have a problem with them either
so long as they are trying.
I usually have them e in to see me during office hours
and/or spend time with a TA (if there is one) if they need the extra help.
The goal of education is not to gain as much knowledge as quickly as possibly
but to gain useful knowledge and retain it.
As such
I would prefer a slow
thoughtful student to a fast
superficial one.
Technically
I’m not a professor yet
but I have taught middle and high school students
and I’m currently teaching undergraduate machine learning.
As a teacher
I don’t care how “fast” someone learns something.
There may be a lot of reasons someone picks up a particular subject or topic more quickly: more background
natural adeptness
previous exposure to the material
more sleep that night
less stress
and so on.
We process information differently.
To use myself as an example
I tended to be paratively slow in my advanced undergraduate mathematics classes.
In retrospect
I’ve e to realize that one of the ways I learn is “error-based.” That is
I effectively learn by making mistakes.
This may be slower than other methods of learning
but when I learn something
I really learn it.
Personally
I think that this method of learning is well-suited for research. Now
this is quite different from someone who is simply unprepared for a course.
I seldom worried about “slow learners” when teaching residents or even medical students. I knew these young men and women could learn.
There is a lot of material to master in medicine
but there is also time. That is what training programs are about.
Like in so many other professions
knowledge is only a part of being a doctor.
I spent decades learning enough to be a doctor and decades more keeping up and improving.
It never stops
and never should.
Slow learners need a study plan
and time
and good classes
and periodic assessment.
Now the world is petitive and sometimes being too slow means you miss out.
But speed is seldom the biggest marker of success. Learning
like a career
or like life
is a marathon
not a sprint.
