Japan and South Korea also have experience in class size control. Japanese school education emphasizes refined training, and the class size is generally small. In a class of 15 students, teachers can pay close attention to students' psychological state and learning progress. Japanese educational circles believe that a small class size helps to create a good teacher-student relationship, which has a positive impact on students' physical and mental health and learning motivation. According to the survey, in small class teaching in Japan, students' participation in class has increased by nearly 30% compared with that in large class.In Europe, countries such as Finland, which are famous for their high-quality education, also implement small class teaching. Finnish schools pay attention to the individualized growth of each student, and the class size is not large, so teachers have more time and energy to tap the potential of students. Teachers can tailor their study plans for students according to their hobbies and specialties. In this educational environment, Finnish students have performed well in programme for international student assessment and other tests, and their innovative ability and comprehensive quality have been widely recognized by the international community.2. The change of social concept and educational concept
In the process of educational reform, Korean schools are gradually developing into small classes. South Korea's education pays attention to cultivating students' comprehensive quality. In a class of 15 students, teachers can better organize diversified teaching activities. For example, group project-based learning is carried out, so that each student can give full play to his own advantages in the project and cultivate teamwork spirit and the ability to solve practical problems. At the same time, the Korean education department found that small-class teaching helps to reduce the academic pressure gap between students and promote educational equity.1. Improve the teaching effect.When the class size is controlled at 15 students, teachers can know more about each student's learning situation. Teachers can provide targeted counseling for each student's weak points of knowledge. For example, in mathematics teaching, teachers may only explain the knowledge points in a large class, but in a class of 15 students, teachers can find each student's problems in algebra, geometry and other different sectors, so as to explain the problem-solving ideas in a personalized way.
This class size is also convenient to carry out inquiry learning. Every student has more opportunities to participate in discussions and experiments, and it is no longer a few students who dominate classroom interaction. In science class, 15 students can be divided into several groups to carry out experimental exploration, and each student can operate the instrument, observe the experimental phenomena and put forward his own opinions. This is helpful to improve students' scientific inquiry ability and innovative thinking ability.In terms of educational concept, teachers also need to adapt to this change from large class teaching to small class teaching. Teacher training is particularly important. Schools can organize teachers to participate in training courses in small class teaching and learn the methods and skills of small class teaching, such as how to carry out personalized teaching and how to organize efficient group activities, so as to improve teachers' teaching ability to adapt to the new teaching mode.This class size is also convenient to carry out inquiry learning.
