YET A SCHOOL IN GERMANY HAS DEVELOPED ANOVEL WAY TO RAISE THE MORALE OF ITS STUDENTS, BY TEACHING

15、HAPPINESS IN CLASSES. STUDENTS AT HEIDELBERGS WlLLY HELLPACH School of Economics are learning how to achieve happiness as AN OFFICIAL SUBJECT, ALONGSIDE MATHEMATICS AND LANGUAGES. THIS IS THE FIRST SCHOOL IN GERMANY TO DEVELOP A HAPPINESS COURSE, INTENDED FOR 17- TO 19-YEAR-OLDS PREPARING FOR UNIVER

16、SITY ENTRANCE EXAMS.Ernst Fritz-Schubert, the schools principal, is on aMISSION TO CHANGE THINGS.Ernst Fritz-Schubert: It was my idea-Ive been at this SCHOOL FOR 31 YEARS, AND I FEEL THAT SCHOOL AND HAPPINESS HAVE TO BE REUNITED. THESE ARE TWO TERMS WHICH ARE NOT CONSIDERED TOGETHER, BECAUSE ONE DOE

17、S NOT CONNECT SCHOOL WITH HAPPINESS. In some cases school comes behind the dentists on the POPULARITY SCALE AND WE SHOULD TRY TO PUSH SCHOOLS POPULARITY A BIT.It has been proved by science that a happy student can LEARN MORE THAN AN UNHAPPY ONE, UNHAPPY STUDENTS CAN CONCENTRATE FOR A WHILE BUT DO NO

18、T USE ALL THEIR POTENTIAL. The happiness classes are intended to help students fulfill THEIR POTENTIAL. THEY WILL HELP THE STUDENTS LIVE HAPPY AND PROSPEROUS LIVES.The classes aim to help students in achieving a positiveSTATE OF MIND, BY USING ALL THEIR OWN RESOURCES AND BOOSTING THEIR SELF-ESTEEM.

19、IN ADDITION, THEY HOPE CLASSES WILL INCREASE SELF-AWARENESS AND PHYSICAL COMFORT. HAPPINESS CLASSES ARE ALSO INTENDED TO MAKE STUDENTS MORE AWARE ABOUT THEIR ENVIRONMENT AND SOCIETY AS A WHOLE. DURING CLASSES STUDENTS ARE ENCOURAGED TO EXPRESS THEMSELVES AND OBSERVE THEIR PEERS behavior. The classes

20、 are taught by Bjoern Bonn, an actor and VISITING LECTURER.Bjoern Bonn: One of the exercises I do is to have one of THE STUDENTS WALK ACROSS THE CLASSROOM, WITH THE OTHERS COPYING HIS WALK. THROUGH THIS EXERCISE, I HOPE THEY LEARN SOMETHING ABOUT THEMSELVES. WHY DO I MOVE LIKE THIS? HOW DO OTHERS SE

21、E MY WAY OF WALKING? I HOPE THAT WITH A HIGHER BODY AWARENESS THEY IDEALLY -OF COURSE IT WILL TAKE TIME-ACHIEVE A HIGHER SELF-CONSCIOUSNESS WHICH COULD LEAD TO HAPPINESS.Wolfgang Lang： We give these classes to students to HELP THEM FIND HAPPINESS. NOW THE QUESTION IS： HOW DO I DEFINE happiness? Happ

22、iness is for example a strengthening of the PERSONALITY. WE ARE PROVIDING HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS TO MAKE STRONGER PEOPLE. PEOPLE THAT ASK “WHO AM I AS A PERSON? AM I REALLY HAPPY?Pascal Gemble： It takes time and everybody has to findHAPPINESS FOR THEMSELVES. YOU CANNOT GO INTO A COACHINGLESSON AND SAY

23、TEACH ME HAPPINESS. ONE CAN ONLY GET INDICATIONS FROM TEACHERS OR THE VISITING LECTURERS. THERE ARE ALSO HAPPINESS SCIENTISTS, IF WE COULD TALK TO ONE OF THOSE, I AM SURE HE WOULD HAVE SOME HINTS.Yosma Pinar Cetinkaya: You would think that the TEACHERS ARE WRITING DEFINITIONS ON THE BOARD. NOT TRUE.

24、 THOSE WHO WANT HAPPINESS HAVE TO FIND IT FOR THEMSELVES, YOU CANNOT REALLY LEARN THAT.SO WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BE HAPPY AND CAN YOU LEARN IT AT SCHOOL?当学生想起学校,快乐不是多数人想到的。目前,德国一所学校 已经创造了一种新颖的通过在课堂上教授快乐的方法来提升其学生 们的精神面貌。 Heidelberg，s Willy Hellpach School of Economics正在研究怎样将快乐实现为与数学和语言样的官方课 程。这是德国第一家开设

25、快乐课程的学校，意欲为1?至19岁的学生 作高考的准备。Ernst Fritz-Schubert,学校的校长,肩负着变革的使命。Ernst Fritz-Schubert：这是我的想法一我已经在这所学校呆 了 31年,我认为学校和快乐必须被重组,这是不被认为该在一起的 两部分,因为学生不把学校与快乐联系起来。在某些情况下,学校在 受欢迎程度上落后于牙医,我们应该努力推动学校的受欢迎度。科学已经证明一个快乐的学生能比个不快乐的学生学到更多。 不快乐的学生能在一段时间内集中注意力,但不能发挥他们所有的潜 力,这些快乐课程致于帮助学生发挥他们的潜能,能帮学生生活在 快乐繁荣的生活中。”这种课程旨在帮助

26、学生们通过用他们自己的特长和激励他们的自 尊来达到思想的积极状态。另外,他们希望课程会增加自觉意识和身 体素质,快乐课程还致于让学生意识到环境与社会是作为个整体 存在。课堂期间学生被鼓励表达自我和关注同伴的行为,课程由演员 和客座讲师BjoernBonn讲授。Bjoern Bonn： “我做的其中一个练习是让学生走过教室,其他学 生模仿他的步伐。通过这个练习,我希望他们从自己身上学得一些东 西为什么我像这样行动?其他人怎样评价我走路的方式?我希望 伴随着更高的身体意识他们原则上当然这需要时间一实现更 高的抵达快乐的自我意识。”Wolfgang Lang： “我们为学生们开设这些课程来帮助他们找

27、寻 快乐,现在问题是:我该如何给快乐下定义?比如快乐是个性的加强。 我们正提供有帮助的建议来使学生更强健,学生会问:我是个怎样 的人?我真的髙兴吗? ”PascalGembe： ”这需要花时间,每个人必须为自己找寻快乐, 你不可能去个训练课说:教给我快乐。个学生只能从教师或客 座讲师那得到暗示,另外也有研究快乐的科学家,如果我们能与他们 之一交流,我确信他能给些暗示。”YosmaPinarCetinkaya： “你会认为老师在黑板上写下快乐的 定义,那不正确。哪些想得到快乐的学生必须为他们自己寻找,你不 能真正通过学习得到。”既然如此,得到快乐的代价是什么?你能在学校学到它吗?Listenin
