AdvancingCrediting
Advancing crediting is a popular psychological pedagogy method applied in the field of child education. Teachers can praise students somehow after they conduct some desirable behavior, and eventually students will return with some good consequences. In that way, students can form appropriate social behavior through teachers’ encouragement.

试题答案： 答案解析：The lecture talks about one child education strategy: advancing crediting, which suggests giving children encouragement after they conduct certain behavior, in order to help them form proper social behavior. The speaker cites one experiment to illustrate this theory: some primary students were chosen and were distributed candies to each together in a room. Without any warning beforehand, the tester wanted to see how many students can put candy wrappers in the dustbin, and the result was that most kids just littered the wrappers on the ground. Then, the teacher praised those children who threw the wrappers in the dustbin and regarded them as good kids. Several days later, when the same experiment was done again, most children chose to put wrappers in the dustbin, and that was how the experiment effectively proves the theory "advancing crediting". [听力原文] M: Yes, as a child education strategy, advancing crediting has been proved to be quite useful, especially in kids’ enlightening period. This strategy is better used after a child conducts certain behavior, and this kind of after-the-event compliment can help children form proper social behavior and good manners. There is an example of advancing crediting, which I often show to my students: in the 1980s, a group of scientists in North America had conducted an experiment in a primary school in order to test the effects of "advancing crediting" on child development and some children were randomly chosen for this psychology experiment. At the beginning, scientists put these children in a certain room and handed out candies to each student. The aim was to see how many of them would put wrappers in the dustbin and how many just litter on the ground without any instruction in advance. The result was that most of children dropped candy wrappers on the ground while only a few put wrappers in the dustbin. Then, the teachers were told to praise those properly behaved kids and regarded these kids as clean and good kids who can protect the environment. Several days later, when the same experiment was conducted among these kids, most children can throw the garbage in the dustbin. document.getElementById("warp").style.display="none"; document.getElementById("content").style.display="block"; 查看试题解析出处>>
