问题     Some people argue that teaching children of different abilities together benefits all of them. Others believe that intelligent children should be taught separately and given special treatment. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
选项
答案     Today, it is quite common for many schools to practice an "elite students" policy, where the intelligent students are selected and given special treatment.
    Personally, I think this practice generally has more benefits on several different levels.
    The most obvious advantage lies in the fact that it allows teachers to employ different pedagogic strategies suited to the particular group of pupils. For example, for the more intelligent students who are more likely to have a quicker mind and stronger thirst for knowledge, teachers or tutors can include something more difficult or complex in their syllabus, catering for the special needs. On the other hand, for some other students who are not that intelligent and may be slow at learning or acquiring new knowledge or skills, a correspondingly suitable teaching strategy then is highly desirable. In this case, the separate teaching scheme is generally good for both groups of students, since teachers can thereafter design different courses and teaching methods catering for their special needs.
    Of course, those who are in support of integration teaching may argue that separating one from another is a violation of individual rights and that everyone should be treated equally regardless of their intelligence. I think the notion of equality is not the issue. The less intelligent students can be allowed to choose some advanced courses originally designed for those fast learners, and vice versa.
    Overall, I think it is not bad to separate students and nurture them individually. The authorities should take into consideration their pupils’ own preference as to being in or out of one particular group so that the benefits of this system can be maximised.
