回答物理问题时的文化差异:这些差异是否源于这些文化中回答考试问题时所期望的推理之间的差异?

Cultural differences in answering physics questions: Could they arise from the difference between reasoning expected in answering exam questions in those cultures?

Cristian Raduta, Gordon Aubrecht

摘要:

在许多方面,美国的学习体系是独一无二的,它依赖于使用多项选择题进行测试。学习物理学,以及在任何其他科目,是一个依赖于上下文的过程。在本文中,我考虑了一个更广泛的问题,即理解上的差异在哪里出现;回答问题的风格往往来自于问题的提出方式。我推测的长期影响多项选择为基础的学习系统可能对推理结构的学生相比,一个基于更多的开放式问题。我提出了一些差异,在两个人口的学生,美国学生(主要是暴露于多项选择类型的考试),和罗马尼亚学生(主要是暴露于开放式类型的考试)之间观察到的答案风格。最后,我提出了一些可能的方法来检验我的预测是否有效。

英文摘要:

In many ways, the American learning system is unique in its reliance on testing using multiple-choice questions. Learning in physics, as well as in any other subject, is a context-dependent process. In this paper, I consider a broader problem of where differences in understanding arise; often styles of answering questions arise from the way the questions are posed. I speculate on the long-run effects a multiple-choice based learning system might have on the reasoning structure of the student compared to one based on more open-ended questions. I present some differences in answer styles observed between two populations of students, US students (mostly exposed to multiple-choice type exams), and Romanian students (mostly exposed to open-end type exams). Finally, I suggest some possible ways of checking whether my predictions have any validity.
