My teacher held up a piece of broken glass and asked, “Who broke this window?” Thirty boys tried to think about not only what they had done, but also what our teacher may have found out. She seldom became angry, but she was this time.

“Oh,” I thought. I was the one who broke the window. It was caused by a naughty throw of a baseball. If I admitted guilt, I would be in a lot of trouble. How would I be able to pay for a big window like that? I didn’t even get an allowance. “My father is going to have a fit,” I thought. I didn’t want to raise my hand, but some force much stronger than I was pulled it skyward. I told the truth. “I did it.” It was hard enough to say what I had.

My teacher took down a book from one of our library shelves and I had never known my teacher to strike a student, but I feared she was going to start with me.

“I know how you like birds,” she said as she stood looking down at my guilt-ridden face. “Here is that field guide about birds that you are constantly checking out. It is yours now. It’s time we got a new one for the school anyway. You will not be punished as long as you remember that I am not rewarding you for your misdeed, I am rewarding you for your truthfulness.”

I couldn’t believe it! I wasn’t being punished and I was getting my own bird field guide-the very one that I had been saving up money to buy.

All that remains of that day is my memory and the lesson my teacher taught me. That lesson stays with me every day and it will echo forever.

My dad’s 52 kept playing in my ears, “Stanley, you’re a champion if you believe it.” I did. Finally, I was not only 53 at lawn tennis and basketball. I was an all-round athlete and 54 won both athletic and academic scholarships to college.

A study suggests that although most students at UK universities are happy with their courses, dissatisfaction has grown as fees riseThe study highlights a big variation in teaching time, and lists different ideas about the value of getting university degrees

Katharine Collins, a second-year college student

The course has been very interesting, but I was expecting a little more one-to-one time with my teacher

We do about four assignments (作业) each term, each of which is about 3,000 wordsHowever, sometimes they are not that helpfulWe hope to be given the right to write feedback (反馈) after every assignment, but we had no feedback at all throughout the first yearWe are given grades about three weeks after we hand the assignments inThere is no feedback on where we have gone wrong or how we might improve

????????????? Lee Millington, a creative-writing student

I choose the courses because of its reputationThere is a lack of one-to-one teachingI would like personalized feedback from an expert in my field of writingSome of the lectures have been quite helpful but they try to use too many different styles of writingFor example, if you want to be a poet, you might find that the lectures focus too much on novels

I think there is too much attention paid to sharing our work in workshops and giving each other feedbackI think there should be more time given to actual teaching, rather than to feedback from people who are at a similar level to me

????????????? Reporters from Hounsdown Secondary School, Ella, 16

When I work independently, I feel I have more freedom to develop my ideas and come up with more original viewpointsThe price of university will still be worth it to get the qualifications (资格证书) necessary for better jobs
