Description
Cooperative learning in mixed race classrooms
In Robert Cialdini's Infleunce: Science and Practice, Cialdini writes that cooperative activities create more friendship and reduce prejudice in classes. However, he also warns that competition has its place and that the issues involved are too complex for a simple solution. See page 158-159.
No, I'm not seriously considering this
I recently saw The Sleeping Dictionary, a love movie in which the main characters meet when the native is assigned to teach the British colonialist the local language. However, a teaching methodology with as little theoretical support as grammar translation dictates that the teacher should have sex with the pupil (luckily we're talking about private tutoring here - no large classes).
Be careful about English teaching jobs in China
I was in the mood to complain about my heavy workload until I read this article about Chinese employers abusing foreign English teachers. This reminded me of my first job teaching English in Korea, at terrible school in Chinju (Jinju) named English House.
