Text 1

Last night I (1) have seen/ saw an interesting programme on television. It (2) has been/ was about a new way of teaching science subjects to schoolchildren. For three years now a school in London (3) has been teaching/ is teaching science in this way to some of its students, and these students (4) have done/ did significantly better in examinations than the students in ordinary classes. It (5) is working/ works like this: students (6) are not only learning/ not only learn about science, but are taught to think about their own way of thinking. One of the teachers on the programme said, ‘Older good teaching methods (7) have made/ made people think, but it (8) has been/ was in a sense unconscious. When a child (9) is having/ has to explain to somebody else how they have solved a problem, that really makes them think about their own thinking.’

Researchers (10) are not fully understanding/ do not fully understand how the methods (11) are working/ work. But marks in examinations (12) have increased/ increased dramatically. Unfortunately, nothing (13) is being done/ is done at the moment to train other teachers in the new methods.
