小编:Eileen 77教育类话题是雅思写作常考话题之一,在2016年正年中出现占比13%。小编今天给大家整理的雅思写作教育类话题的资料,希望对大家有所帮助。
雅思写作教育类话题会有哪些:
1.教育应该包括哪些内容?
母题:It is generally believed that education is of vital importance to the development of individuals and the well-being of societies. What should education consist of to fulfil both these functions? (050312)
提示:本题围绕教育的两大功能来展开(个人与社会),准备好这篇文章,即可应付教育类话题中的最大分支-教育的功能,做到以不变应万变。对于社会角度,可以从促进经济发展、增加社会流动性(social mobility)、维护社会稳定这几个方面来展开,对于个人,可以写改变思维模式、有利于就业和便利生活来写。
子题:大学应当教授理论知识还是实践技能?大学的是应当把学生培养成合格的公民还是让他们自己得益?准备未来职业最好的方法是上大学还是尽快离校积累工作经验?大学要不要扩招?中学阶段应当提供通才教育还是专才教育?要不要延长义务教育年限?要不要让农村地区的学生更容易上学?老师要教学生如何判断是非吗?
2.学校的科目谁来选择?
母题:Some people think that the government should decide which subjects students should study at the university, while others think that students should be allowed to apply for the subject they prefer. Discuss the two views and give your opinion. (060916)
提示:这类题目采取的策略就是"双批判",因为题目中提供的两种选择往往都是错误的。
子题1:政府选课or老师选课?学生选择所有的科目or根据兴趣自行选择?
子题2:要不要学国际新闻?要不要学历史?要不要中学阶段就学习外语?要不要学数学哲学这类的科目?
3.什么样的教学方式最好?
母题:Many people use distance-learning programmes (study material post, TV, Internet, etc.) to study at home, but some people think that it cannot bring the benefit as much as attending college or university. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion? (041113, 081023,100515)
提示:远程教育最大的好处,就在于三个any:anybody, anywhere, any time.缺点是缺乏师生之间以及学生之间的interaction,缺乏教师的moral guidance,因为没有体育课且久坐电脑前,会引发健康问题。
子题:私立学校好不好?留学好不好?要不要分快慢班?小组学习还是单独学习好?
4.谁来为学费买单?
母题:Some people believe that university students should pay all the cost of studies because university education only benefit the students themselves not the society as a whole. To what extent do you agree or disagree? (100731)
提示:这些话题都有一个共同的特征:高等教育只对学生自己有好处,因此学生应当自行为高等教育买单。这类题目的写法非常有规律,先驳斥这种理由,再交代学生自己支付学费的后果就可以了。
子题:政府要为学生买单吗?(缺点是给政府带来经济负担,这类话题写法和其它政府类话题一样)
5.孩子们要不要参加社会实践?
母题:Some school leavers travel or work for a period of time instead of going directly to university. What are the advantages and disadvantages? (030308, 050514,090926)

6.家庭教育
母题:Some people say that children should obey the rules of their parents and teachers, while other people think children will not be well-prepared for their adult life if they are given too much control. Discuss in both sides and give your opinion. (041120, 100520)
提示:写一下各自的好处就可以了,最后的结论是早年的时候要教授他们明辨是非,对于做错的事情要惩罚,但是也要适可而止让其兴趣爱好得到自由发展。
子题:穷人家的孩子是否早当家?家长是否应该为五岁小孩的犯罪负责?要不要把小孩趁早送到学校去?老师对儿童的智力和社会发展所起的作用大于家长吗?同龄人压力(peer pressure)的利弊?

教育类写作范文:
1.Nowadays, some university offer graduate students skills that assist to find employment, but some people believe the main function of university should be to access knowledge for its sake. What is your opinion?如今,一些大学为毕业生提供求职援助,有些人认为大学的主要作用是传授知识,你有什么意见?
As university education is the last stage before the starting of career, many people believe that it prepares students for employment only, but the fact is that it serves a lot many purposes. In this essay I shall discuss the various functions of a university.
Universities provide specialised education in fields such as medical, engineering, commerce etc. They provide library facilities, which support the curriculum. They provide laboratory facilities for science and technology related subjects. They send students to factories and industries so that they get practical experience. This job-oriented training helps them to understand the working conditions and also gives them an idea about competition in the market. They also create job opportunities for the students by arranging campus interviews.
On the other hand, universities also perform other functions which help the students in their personal life. They organise co-curricular activities such as cultural programmes, sports, debates, fairs etc. They gain many qualities such as self-confidence and positive attitude, which help them in their future life. Moreover, some people just go to university for gaining knowledge just out of interest for the subject. For example, a doctor may want to learn French language just for interest in the language.
Furthermore, a university is a place to know more about the world because there are students from across the globe in a university. For many, who may never travel abroad, this may be a chance of a lifetime for them to broaden their horizons and know more about the different cultures of the world. For example, in LPU ( Lovely Professional University), there are 200 students from Malaysia, Korea and other parts of the world.
To put it in a nutshell, I pen down saying that, universities do not simply prepare a person for employment, but also have many other functions.
2.Nowadays children are joining extra coaching classes apart from the school studies. Some think it is important for their future, others think the extra time should be spent playing. Do you agree or disagree? 现在孩子加入额外的培训课程除了学习。一些人认为它是重要为他们的未来,别人都认为这些额外的时间应该用来玩耍。你赞成还是反对?
In order to improve their education, children are participating in extra classes after school instead of spending time playing. This has raised a heated debate around the world whether it is a positive or negative development. Some people believe extra coaching classes lead to good job prospect, whereas others hold a distinctive view and think that children should spend their spare time on leisure activities. In my opinion, I believe that students should join extra classes if they are poor in particular subjects.
In fact, many students have difficulty to keep up with other students in their class, so going to extra classes is an ideal way to fill in the part of lessons they do not understand. In addition, as extra coaching classes generally specialize in a particular subject, the teaching method is much more better than at school and students are able to practice solving exercise problems from a variety of resource. Although self-study is also an effective way to improve their study, some students find it hard to practice this method because the lack of resource for practice problems solving and someone to explain to them.
Furthermore, in the extra coaching classes, students can also improve their social skill, which is very important in their lives and usually requires in almost every career. Even though spare time after school studies should be spent on playing or other leisure activities, children can also do these activities at the weekend and spend the weekdays studying hard. Besides, the break time between classes allows students to play games and do some leisure activities such as reading books or listening to music.
To sum up, participating in extra classes can help students in their study a great deal and they will get result after studying extra time. However, students should not overwork themselves and should spend the weekend on some leisure activities apart from study so as to refreshing their mind and relax.
