1.A new study shows that students learn much better through an active，iterative process that involves working through their misconceptions with fellow students and getting immediate feedback from the instructor. The research was conducted by a team at the University of British Columbia （UBC），Vancouver，in Canada，led by physics Nobelist Carl Wieman. In this study，Wieman trained a postdoc，Louis Deslauriers，and a graduate student，Ellen Schelew，in an educational approach，called “deliberate practice”，that asks students to think like scientists and puzzle out problems during class.For one week，Deslauriers and Schelew took over one section of an introductory physics course for engineering majors，which met three times for one hour.A tenured physics professor continued to teach another large section using the standard lecture format. The results were dramatic:After the intervention，the students in the deliberate practice section did more than twice as well on a 12-question multiple-choice test of the material as did those in the control section. They were also more engaged and a post-study survey found that nearly all said they would have liked the entire 15-week course to have been taught in the more interactive manner. “It's almost certainly the case that lectures have been ineffective for centuries. But now we've figured out a better way that makes students an active participant in the process to teach”，Wieman says. The “deliberate practice” method begins with the instructor giving students a multiple-choice question on a particular concept，which the students discuss in small groups before answering electronically. Their answers reveal their grasp of the topic，which the instructor deals with in a short class discussion before repeating the process with the next concept. While previous studies have shown that this student-centered method can be more effective than teacher-led instruction，Wieman says this study attempted to provide “a particularly clean comparison...to measure exactly what can be learned inside the classroom.”He hopes the study persuades faculty members to stop delivering traditional lectures and “switch over” to a more interactive approach.More than 55 courses at Colorado across several departments now offer that approach，he says，and the same thing is happening gradually at UBC.

2.Three hundred years ago news travelled by word of mouth or letter，and circulated in taverns and coffee houses in the form of pamphlets and newsletters.“The coffee houses particularly are very roomy for a free conversation，and for reading at an easier rate all manner of printed news，”noted one observer.Everything changed in 1833 when the first mass-audience newspaper，The New York sun，pioneered the use of advertising to reduce the cost of news，thus giving advertisers access to a wider audience.The penny press，followed by radio and television，turned news from a two-way conversation into a one-way broadcast， with a relatively small number of firms controlling the media. Now，the news industry is returning to something closer to the coffee house The internet is making news more participatory social and diverse reviving the discursive characteristics of the era before the mass media That will have profound effects on society and politics.In much of the world，the mass media are flourishing Newspaper circulation rose globally by 6% between 2005 and 2009. But those global figures mask a sharp decline in readership in rich countries. Over the past decade，throughout the western world，people have been giving up newspapers and TV news and keeping up with events in profoundly different ways.Most strikingly，ordinary people are increasingly involved in compiling， sharing，filtering，discussing and distributing news.Twitter lets people anywhere report what they are seeing. Classified documents are published in their thousands online Mobile phone footage of Arab uprisings and American tornadoes is posted on social-networking sites and shown on television newscasts. Social-networking sites help people find， discuss and share news with their friends. And it is not just readers who are challenging the media elite. Technology firms including Google，Facebook and twitter have become important conduits of news.Celebrities and world leaders publish updates directly via social networks； many countries now make raw data available through“open government”initiatives. The internet lets people read newspapers or watch television channels from around the world.The web has allowed new providers of news，from individual bloggers to sites，to rise to prominence in a very short space of time. And it has made possible entirely new approaches to journalism，such as that practiced by WikiLeaks，which provides an anonymous way for whistleblowers to publish documents.The news agenda is no longer controlled by a few press barons and state outlets. In principle，every liberal should celebrate this.A more participatory and social news environment，with a remarkable diversity and range of news sources， is a good thing.The transformation of the news business is unstoppable，and attempts to reverse it are doomed to failure. As producers of new journalism，individuals can be scrupulous with facts and transparent with their sources.As consumers they can be general in their tastes and demanding in their standards.And although this transformation does raise concerns，there is much to celebrate in the noisy，diverse，vociferous，argumentative and stridently alive environment of the news business in the ages of the internet.The coffee house is back. Enjoy it.

I am a poor black worker in South Africa. The time when I first met Nelson Mandela was a very difficult period of my life. I was twelve years old. It was in 1952 and Mandela was the black lawyer to whom I went for advice. He offered guidance to poor black people on their legal problems. He was generous with his time, for which I was grateful. I needed his help because I had very little education. I began school at six. The school where I studied for only two years was three kilometers away. I had to leave because my family could not continue to pay the school fees and the bus fare. I could not read or write well. After trying hard, I got a job in a gold mine. However, this was a time when one had got to have a passbook to live in Johannesburg. Sadly I did not have it because I was not born there and I worried about whether I would become out of work. The day when Nelson Mandela helped me was one of my happiest. He told me how to get the correct papers so I could stay in Johannesburg. I became more hopeful about my future. I never forgot how kind Mandela was. When he organized the ANC Youth League, I joined it as soon as I could. He said: "The last thirty years have seen the greatest number of laws stopping our rights and progress, until today we have reached a stage where we have almost no rights at all" It was the truth. Black people could not vote or choose their leaders. They could not get the jobs they wanted. The parts of town in which they had to live were decided by white people. the places outside the towns where they were sent to live were the poorest parts of South Africa. No one could grow food there. In fact as Nelson Mandela said： "…we were put into a position in which we had either to accept we were less important or fight the government. We chose to attack the laws. We first broke the law in a way which was peaceful; when this was not allowed…only then did we decide to answer violence with violence." As a matter of fact, I do not like violence…but in 1963 I helped him blow up some government buildings. It was very dangerous because if I was caught I could be put in prison. But I was happy to help because I knew it would help us achieve our dream of making black and white people equal.
