【导学流程】
一、自主学习
1. What do active learners do
1) Discuss the title of the lesson and gather ideas on its possible meanings, i.e., a method of learning that is not only about listening to lectures and trying to remember what the teacher has said. Point out that the opposite method is “passive learning” and invite learners to think of contrasting details about each method.
2) Read the list of active learning methods aloud and invite students to raise their hand for the ones they practise by themselves.
3) Students work in small groups and discuss which students they think best represent the principle of active learning.
4) Ask students to think about which areas they could improve on and whether they think that is something they can achieve or not.
2. Read the first paragraph and answer questions.
1) Read the three questions out loud and invite students to give their opinion.
a. What do most people believe about the human brain Is it true
b. What is active learning
c. What is Kevin Daum going to talk about in the article
2) In small groups, students read the questions and then the first paragraph of the text.
3) Students discuss their answers.
4) Each group presents their answers to the class.
3. Read and write subheadings.
1) Ask learners to silently read through the subheadings on page 52 and point out that subheadings in longer texts are very helpful with coherence and the flow of the information.
2) Independently, students write the subheadings before the corresponding paragraphs. Students do not need to read for any specific details. They should focus on the gist of each paragraph.
3) Students check their answers in pairs and then review as a class.
4) Ask students to identify the part in each paragraph that helped them to find the correct subheading.
二、归纳总结
1.As引导的方式状语从句
[仿写] 我希望别人怎样对待我,我就会怎样对待他们。
I’ll behave toward them as I would like to be treated.
2.If not 省略结构
[仿写] 如果你喜欢,就去做吧! 如果不喜欢,就算了吧。
If you like it,just do it!If not,forget it!
3.It is true that...

【堂测堂练】
Read the text and then fill in the form below.
Suggestions Learning process
Listen to the outer voice The outer voice tells you about opinions from ①what you hear or read.Active learners are open minded and ②focus on what the speaker/writer is saying,not on what their brain is saying in the background.
Argue with your inner voice When your inner voice tells you a speaker/writer is wrong,③think about why the speaker/writer may be right.Be flexible in your opinions and you might end up ④agreeing with the speaker/writer after all.If not,at least you have “listened to” another point of view.
Ask questions When you ⑤get information from someone,from books or the Internet,ask two,three,even five questions about the topic.The very act of ⑥working out questions will help you to achieve a higher level of understanding about the topic.
Get to the truth Active learners don’t accept everything they learn.They ⑦attempt to find the truth ⑧at the heart of each idea.Even when an idea sounds entirely unlikely,there may be an aspect of it that is based on truth.
Focus on the message Active learners do not judge people based on ⑨first impressions or personal feelings.Instead,they separate the message ⑩from the messenger.
