B [2025·湖南邵东高一期中]
Every school has students who stand out for their abilities and their eagerness（渴望）to learn. In Mexico, a school created a programme to work with them. In 2019, both teachers Lotta Andersson and John Rennie got the idea to provide learning opportunities for students with a desire for knowledge. They are English coordinators（协调员）in the school. “We want to have a programme to encourage students who really have the abilities and the interests to learn more and continue accepting challenges,” Andersson said during a recent interview.
Students in the programme, which was called Learning Challenges, met with the teachers about once a month. Andersson and Rennie would help us choose research topics. We then worked with the teachers to find books, interview subjects and Internet sources. While in Learning Challenges, I gave statements on European culture and the fashion industry.
When asked what skills students had formed in the programme, which ended in June 2020 because of the limits of a common disease, Andersson said, “They had learned to ask questions, be more open-minded and see things from different angles（角度）. Also, they mastered the skills—reflecting more, acting actively, and learning not to put limits on themselves.”
A student, Yihane Abed, carried out research on the sun, the moon, stars, planets, etc, while in Learning Challenges. “The skills I developed were teamwork and the ways to do research and give a good presentation,” she said.
Andersson and Rennie continue to help students pursue their love of learning. “The programme doesn't exist formally, but as an important part of the culture at school, it is still needed,” Andersson said. “There is much more difference, not only for students who need extra help, but also for those who are higher achievers.”
