Culture Note
Traditionally universities in the United States offer courses in the arts and sciences, and students graduate obtaining a B.A. (Bachelor of Arts) or B.S. (Bachelor of Science). Universities in many places are now offering students more flexibilities in choosing their courses of study under those headings. Students are even allowed to design their own major or courses of study. But they are allowed to graduate on condition that they have collected enough credits. 传统意义的美国大学提供文科和理科的课程，学生毕业后获得文学学士(简称BA)和理学学士(简称BS)。如今，许多地方的大学在此基础上，为学生们提供了更为灵活的选课方式。甚至学生可以自己设计专业或课程，但前提是毕业时必须获得足够的学分。

While most schools have similar subjects, exercises and activities, there are a number of alternative models of education. Maria Montessori (1870-1952) was an Italian doctor and educator. She developed teaching materials and games to exploit children's natural curiosity. The Montessori method encourages children to explore their environment, handle objects, and solve problems. There are now
thousands of Montessori schools around the world.
虽然大多数学校都有相似的科目、练习和活动，但还是有很多特别的教学模式可供选择。玛利亚•蒙特梭利（1870-1952）是一位意大利医生、教育家。她开发了教材和游戏，用于开发孩子天生的好奇心。蒙氏教学法鼓励孩子们探索他们身边的环境、动手并解决问题。现在全世界有几千所蒙特梭利学校。
Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925) was an Austrian writer and philosopher. He developed an education model that emphasizes play and the arts. There are no exams, grades, computers or televisions as part of the teaching, and students have the same teacher until they are around 10 to 14 years old. A school like this is also known as a Waldorf School. There are over 900 Waldorf schools around the world currently.
