When giving feedback to students, some teachers would like to talk to their students in person, while some teachers would give written comments to students. Which do you prefer and why?
1.采取哪种方式取决于学生人数,如果学生少,老师可以兼顾,面对面反馈更好。
2.如果学生多,面谈的工作量会太大,那么老师选择书面反馈是可以的。
I think it really depends on how many students the teacher is in charge of. I mean, if a teacher only has to give feedback to a few students, then face-to-face communication is a better approach because this gives each student individual attention and support. Students can raise questions and get answers immediately. However, when a teacher has a large number of students, talking to them one by one would make the job impossible to finish, I think it’s OK to send feedback emails to students, because they also help students know where they need to improve.
我认为这取决于一个老师要负责多少个学生。我的意思是,如果一个老师只需要给很少的学生提供反馈,那么面对面交流是一个更好的选择,因为这样能关照和支持每一个学生。学生们可以提出问题,并且可以立即得到回答。然而,如果一个老师有很多学生,一对一面谈可能是一件不可能完成的任务,我觉得这时候给学生们发反馈邮件也是可以的,因为这样也能让学生们知道自己哪方面需要加强。
