Science Grad Students Who Teach Write Better Proposals
工科研究生的寫(xiě)作“秘籍”

Some graduate students in science, technology, engineering and math—or STEM—only do research, under the guidance of a mentor. Other STEM grad students also have teaching responsibilities, for example, instructing undergrads or local high schoolers. Now a study finds that grad students who also teach show significant improvement in written research proposals, compared with grad students with no teaching requirement. The finding appears in the journal Science.
有些科學(xué)、技術(shù)、工程和數(shù)學(xué)（簡(jiǎn)稱STEM）的研究生僅在導(dǎo)師的指導(dǎo)下做一些研究。其他STEM的研究生則還有教學(xué)的責(zé)任，比如說(shuō)指導(dǎo)本科生或者 當(dāng)?shù)氐母咧猩?。最近，一?xiàng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn)有教學(xué)責(zé)任的研究生與沒(méi)有教學(xué)要求的研究生相比，在撰寫(xiě)研究報(bào)告時(shí)有顯著提高。這項(xiàng)發(fā)現(xiàn)發(fā)表在《科學(xué)》期刊上。

Researchers followed almost a hundred grad students attending three different institutions. About half of the students also taught. All the grad students were asked to submit written research proposals at the beginning of an academic year and a revised version again at the end. And those grad students who spent the year doing research and teaching showed bigger improvements in coming up with testable hypotheses and in the design of valid experiments.
研究人員跟進(jìn)三所不同機(jī)構(gòu)近100名研究稱。其中有一半的學(xué)生有教學(xué)經(jīng)驗(yàn)。所有研究生被要求在學(xué)年初交一份研究報(bào)告，在學(xué)年底遞交修訂版。而那些花了一年時(shí)間做研究和教學(xué)的學(xué)生在提出可檢驗(yàn)性假設(shè)和有效實(shí)驗(yàn)設(shè)計(jì)中有很大提高。

Differences in overall written quality among the students could not account for the results, because only specific skills among those analyzed showed improvement as a function of the teaching experience. So teaching may make STEM grad students better scientists. Not to mention better teachers.
學(xué)生總體撰寫(xiě)質(zhì)量的差異并不能解釋研究結(jié)果，因?yàn)樵谒蟹治鰯?shù)據(jù)中僅僅這一項(xiàng)特定的技能顯示出擁有教學(xué)經(jīng)驗(yàn)的好處。因此教學(xué)可能會(huì)使STEM研究生成為更優(yōu)秀的科學(xué)家，更不必說(shuō)還會(huì)是更好的老師了。
