Kyle Pahigian is a 10th-grade math teacher, In her class, writing is often used as a learning strategy(策略).Instead of telling her students what a polygon(多边形) is, for example, she will show them a set of polygons and a set of non-polygons, and ask them, “What differences do you see ”Students write down their answers, and then join groups to compare them. “It's really interesting for mo to read what they've written, It gives me a window into my students thinking,” she said.
A recent study shows writing is such a beneficial activity not just in subjects like history and English, but across all subjects, Professor Steve Graham examined 56 studies looking at the benefits of writing in science, social studies, and math and found that writing improved learning across all grade levels. While teachers commonly ask students to write about a topic in order to assess(评价) how well they understand the material, the process of writing also improves students’ ability to recall information, make connections between different ideas, and synthesize(合成) information in new ways.
Information is quickly forgotten if it's not reinforced, and writing helps to strengthen students’ memories of the material they're.learning, Writing also encourages students to process information at a deeper level, “Putting thoughts on paper encourages students to assess different ideas, weigh the importance of each one and consider the order they should be presented in,"Graham writes, By doing so, students may make new connections between ideas, ones they may not have made at the beginning.
Students often believe that they understand a topic, but if they're asked to write it down and explain it, gaps in their understanding may be shown, One effective writing strategy that Graham found was meta cognitive prompting(元认知提示),in which students are asked not only to recall information but also to use what they have learned in different situations. For example.instead of simply reading about ecosystems(生态系统) in a textbook, students can write about their own effect on ecosystem by examining how much rubbish their household produces.
Many teachers of different subjects have tried using writing in their classes. Would you like to join them

Have you ever paid for eduational podcasts (博客) or live videos Most of you will say yes, “Pay-for-knowlexlge” has been more and more popular these years. These products are from lunguuge learning to gardening or baby-caring. Everything can be found online: at this moment , “ pay-for-knowledge” is on the rise.
Why is “ puy-for-knowledge” industry developing so quickly First, its development is based on the Internet. With a fast network and a smartphone, anyone who has passed the identity (9份) chgck can be an online teacher, and anyone with an online account (账户) can buy “ pay-for-knowledge” products at an affordable price. Second, people are afraid to miss any information. On one hand , people hope for more useful information. On the other hand, such information is usually at the hands ofexperts ( 专家) who serve well-known companies or universities. The need to learn new skills in today's job market also pushes people to learn on such educational podcasts.
The industry of “ pay-for-knowledge ” carries three benefits. It promises posibilities of turning information into money. For example, it is good for the development of our country and it can help sellers make money. Besides, buyers can enjoy self-growth from it . What's more , it shows people's respect for knowledge.
However, the fast development of “ pay-for-knowledge” has a few problems. For one , the market is full of eye-catching words such as “ How to Be an Industry's Expert in 5 Hours” and “15 Classes to Be a Master of Appreciating ( 欣) Classical Music" which sound like if you pay for it, you are sure to succeed. For another, a large number of customers buy them just for showing off. In fact , those who have really had self-growth after buying online courses may be the kind of people who need them least, because they are those who have the ability to learn by themselves.
In general, the best is the one that fits you most.“ Pay-for-knowledge” may be used as a good start for self-growth. Be careful! Or, your dream of success may not come true.

Last summer, I had an unforgettable experience of being home alone. While my parents were away for a business trip, I was home alone. At first, I felt a bit lonely and bored. Then I decided to do something to kill the time. I read a book, watched a funny movie, and even did some housework.
After my parents came back, they were surprised how tidy and clean our home was. I felt very proud of myself.
This experience taught me a valuable lesson. It made me realize that being alone doesn't mean being lonely. There are many things we can do when we are home alone.
