Getting ready to go back to school in the good old days of, say, 1998 meant a few trips to the mall and a quick check of the bus route. This year, for many parents, there are some new things to remember: the teacher’s e-mail address, the school’s website and which night online homework helps chat will be offered. "The 1999-2000 school year will be the one when the majority of parents really feel the Internet’s influence on their children’s education at the everyday level," says Jonathan Carson, chairman of the family education co., which offers a parenting website at www. family education, com and a framework for local schools to create and maintain their own sites.
This year promises to show a quantum leap in the spread of school technology: Parents in many districts can expect to be able to check the school lunch menu, read class notes, see activity calendar and view nightly homework assignments — all online. "The schools are wired," says Carson, "A majority of parents now have access and the educators are ready to go."
Over the summer, parents of high school German students in Ithaca, N. Y. got to be part of a class to Europe, through their home computers. The class brought a digital camera and laptop with them to Germany and documented their visit on their web page. Hazy Ash, father of 16-year-old traveler Brian, found it reassuring to see his son’s smiling face from half a world away. Before their kids left, parents had checked the site for scheduling information, a list of activities and advice on cultural differences.
When it’s designed well, a district, school or classroom website can change the relationship between the parents and the school, says Cynthia Lapier, Ithaca’s director of information and instructional technology. "The more you can involve parents in school, the better," Lapier says, "the technology gives us another way to reach them, especially parents of secondary school students, who tend to be less involved."
Ithaca high school physics teacher, Stever Wirt, gets e-mails from parents regularly, some from the parents he believes might otherwise not pick up the phone with a concern. Using software called blackboard course info, Wirt conducts online chats with his students often reviewing for a quiz or discussing homework problems.
The way things are going, by the end of this year, many parents may be fully converted — and in fact dependent upon their schools’ technological capabilities. At a recently wired school in Novi, Michigan, the school webmaster was just a few hours late posting the lunch-menu calendar on the website. In that time, more than a dozen parents called him by telephone to request the information. "A year ago, it never would have been there," says Carson. And now parents are finding it’s tough to get by without it. [br] According to this passage, which of the following will be changed most?
选项
A、The relationship between teachers and schools.
B、The connection between students and schools.
C、The relationship between parents and schools.
D、The association between websites and schools.
答案
C
解析
根据题干中的“will be changed most”可定位到第4段中的第1句:When it’s designedwell,a district,school or classroom website can change the relationship between the parents and theschool…”(如果社区、学校或教室的网站设计得好,可改善家长与学校之间的关系)。第5段也引用了Ithaca学校一位物理教师的例子来说明网络这种方式加强了家长与学校、教师之间的联系,故最大的改变应该是家长与学校之间的关系,故答案为C。
