Learning Strategy 学习技巧
Learning Strategies are the thoughts and actions that help make learning easier or more effective.
The learning strategy for this lesson is Personalize. Learning English is easier when you think about how what you learn relates to yourself. Here is an example.
本课的学习技巧是个性化。
Meilin is learning about clothing words. She looks at her own clothes and says to herself, "My sweater is green. I am wearing blue jeans." Meilin looks at her English lesson. She sees a photo of a woman in black jeans. She says to her classmate, "I don't like black jeans. Do you?" Meilin is using the strategy "personalize" because she is speaking English to tell about herself and her own likes or dislikes. Tomorrow she will remember the words better, because she is thinking about herself when she says them.
Meilin正在学习跟服装相关的词汇。她看看自己的衣服说，“我的毛衣是绿色的，穿着蓝色牛仔裤。”Meilin看教材上有个女人穿着黑色牛仔裤，她告诉同学说，“我不喜欢黑色牛仔裤，你呢？”Meilin就是在使用个性化的学习技巧，结合自己的喜好来辅助学习的。
