Camera/Technical Check & Setting Expectations: Teacher addressed the ongoing camera issue and stressed its importance for engagement. Student promised improvement.

摄像头/技术检查与设定期望： 教师解决了持续的摄像头问题，并强调了其对参与度的重要性。学生承诺会改进。

Fiscal Policy Review (AD Shift): Reviewing how expansionary fiscal policy (increase in G or decrease in T) shifts AD. Deep dive into why tax reduction increases consumption (disposable income) and investment (firm profit).

财政政策复习（AD移动）： 复习扩张性财政政策（G增加或T减少）如何移动AD。深入探讨税收减少如何增加消费（可支配收入）和投资（企业利润）。

Introduction to Supply-Side Policies (SSPs): Transitioned to SSPs, defining their goal (shifting AS curve right). Covered interventionist SSPs (Education, Healthcare, Infrastructure) and the link to productivity.

供给侧政策（SSP）介绍： 过渡到供给侧政策，定义其目标（使AS曲线向右移动）。涵盖了干预主义的供给侧政策（教育、医疗、基础设施）以及与生产率的联系。

Categorizing SSPs & Explaining Free Market Policies: Distinguishing between interventionist (spending-based) and free-market (incentive/rule-based) SSPs. Discussed reducing minimum wage, red tape (bureaucracy), and trade union influence.

分类供给侧政策与解释自由市场政策： 区分干预主义（基于支出的）和自由市场（基于激励/规则的）供给侧政策。讨论了降低最低工资、减少繁文缛节（官僚主义）和降低工会影响。

3. Student Performance Assessment (Rory) 3. 学生表现评估 (Rory)

Participation and Activeness 参与度和积极性

Participation was inconsistent, often requiring multiple prompts to clarify basic connections (e.g., tax impact on C, reason for I impact). Engagement improved significantly when moving to the concrete examples of SSPs. 参与度不一致，经常需要多次提示才能澄清基本联系（例如，税收对C的影响，I受影响的原因）。当转向供给侧政策的具体例子时，参与度明显提高。

Language Comprehension and Mastery 语言理解和掌握

Demonstrated partial understanding of fiscal policy mechanics but struggled initially to articulate the specific links (e.g., tax -> disposable income -> consumption). Showed good conceptual grasp of SSP goals (shifting AS) and examples (Healthcare/Education). 展示了对财政政策机制的部分理解，但在最初阶段难以阐述具体联系（例如，税收 -> 可支配收入 -> 消费）。对供给侧政策的目标（移动AS）和具体例子（医疗/教育）有很好的概念掌握。

Language Output Ability 语言输出能力

Oral: 口语：

Fluency is acceptable, but explanations often lacked precision and included irrelevant concepts (mixing AD stimulus with AS productivity arguments). Needed constant steering to provide textbook-style causal chains. 流利度尚可，但解释常常缺乏精确性，并混入不相关的概念（将AD刺激与AS生产率论点混淆）。需要持续引导才能提供教科书式的因果链。

Written: 书面：

Not assessed in this session, but the lack of focus suggests written work might also need clearer structure.

本次课程未评估，但注意力不集中表明书面作业可能也需要更清晰的结构。

Student's Strengths 学生的优势

Strong knowledge of concrete SSP examples (Healthcare, Infrastructure, Education) and their intended outcomes. 对具体的供给侧政策例子（医疗、基础设施、教育）及其预期结果有扎实的了解。
Able to identify key terms and concepts when prompted (e.g., recognizing investment is by firms, not stocks). 在被提示时能够识别关键术语和概念（例如，认识到投资来自企业，而非股市）。
Willingness to engage and correct mistakes when the teacher simplifies the core logic. 当老师简化核心逻辑时，愿意参与并纠正错误。

Areas for Improvement 需要改进的方面

Precision in linking cause and effect in macroeconomic models (e.g., explicitly stating the mechanism: lower tax -> higher disposable income -> higher C -> higher AD). 在宏观经济模型中建立因果联系的精确性（例如，明确说明机制：税收降低 -> 可支配收入增加 -> C增加 -> AD增加）。
Focus and sustained attention, particularly during complex review sections, possibly exacerbated by camera issues. 注意力和持续的专注度，特别是在复杂的复习环节中，可能因摄像头问题而加剧。
Distinguishing clearly between AD-shifting policies (Fiscal) and AS-shifting policies (Supply-Side). 清晰区分AD移动政策（财政）和AS移动政策（供给侧）。

4. Teaching Reflection 4. 教学反思

Effectiveness of Teaching Methods 教学方法的有效性

The teacher effectively used step-by-step questioning and counter-examples (the tax calculation test) to diagnose comprehension gaps. 教师有效地使用循序渐进的提问和反例（税收计算测试）来诊断理解上的差距。
The review of fiscal policy was necessary but took longer than expected due to the student's shaky foundation on tax mechanisms. 对财政政策的复习是必要的，但由于学生在税收机制方面的基础不牢固，所花费的时间比预期要长。

Teaching Pace and Time Management 教学节奏和时间管理

The pace was slow and deliberate during the fiscal policy review to ensure the student followed the causal chain, which was appropriate given the student's need for foundational clarity. 在财政政策复习期间，节奏缓慢且审慎，以确保学生跟上因果链，这与学生需要基础清晰度的现状相符。
The introduction of SSPs allowed for a more successful pacing, as the student was familiar with the examples. 供给侧政策的介绍使得节奏管理更为成功，因为学生对这些例子比较熟悉。

Classroom Interaction and Atmosphere 课堂互动和氛围

The atmosphere was generally supportive, though the teacher frequently expressed frustration regarding the lack of focus and the ongoing camera issue. The student seemed receptive to correction.

课堂氛围总体支持，尽管教师经常对缺乏专注和持续的摄像头问题表示沮丧。学生对纠正持接受态度。

Achievement of Teaching Objectives 教学目标的达成

Partially achieved. The student recalled SSP categories and examples well, but the review of fiscal policy required significant remediation. 部分达成。学生很好地回忆起了供给侧政策的类别和例子，但财政政策的复习需要大量的补救性教学。

5. Subsequent Teaching Suggestions 5. 后续教学建议

Teaching Strengths 教学优势

Identified Strengths: 识别的优势：

Effective use of targeted questioning to expose logical flaws in student reasoning (e.g., mixing AD and AS explanations). 有效地使用有针对性的提问来揭示学生推理中的逻辑缺陷（例如，混淆AD和AS的解释）。
Ability to simplify complex economic concepts (like the impact of tax cuts on profit/disposable income) using clear, albeit sometimes repetitive, examples. 能够使用清晰但有时重复的例子来简化复杂的经济概念（如减税对利润/可支配收入的影响）。

Effective Methods: 有效方法：

Employing a 'test' scenario (the 30% vs 20% tax rate calculation) to check actual, rather than assumed, understanding. 采用“测试”场景（30%对20%的税率计算）来检查实际理解而非假设的理解。
Clearly differentiating between Interventionist (spending) and Free Market (incentive) SSPs using memorable analogies. 使用令人难忘的比喻，清晰地区分了干预主义（支出）和自由市场（激励）的供给侧政策。

Positive Feedback: 正面反馈：

The student provided excellent logical steps when explaining why infrastructure spending improves productivity (faster commuting leading to longer effective working hours). 学生在解释基础设施支出如何提高生产率时（更快的通勤时间带来更长的有效工作时间）提供了出色的逻辑步骤。

Next Teaching Focus 下一步教学重点

Consolidate the understanding of Free Market Supply-Side Policies, specifically focusing on the intuition behind reducing trade union power and its impact on labor market flexibility. 巩固对自由市场供给侧政策的理解，特别是关注降低工会权力及其对劳动力市场灵活性的影响背后的直觉。
Review the difference between interventionist and free-market SSPs using specific examples. 使用具体例子复习干预主义和自由市场供给侧政策之间的区别。

Specific Suggestions for Student's Needs 针对学生需求的具体建议

Pronunciation & Reading: 发音与阅读：

Continue practicing clear articulation when explaining sequential economic logic to maintain clarity. 继续练习在解释连续的经济逻辑时清晰发音，以保持清晰度。

Speaking & Communication: 口语与交流：

When asked 'why,' focus responses strictly on the variable mentioned in the AD/AS formula (C, I, G, X, M) before discussing broader impacts. 当被问到“为什么”时，将回答严格集中在AD/AS公式中提到的变量（C、I、G、X、M）上，然后再讨论更广泛的影响。
Practice stating the difference between policies that shift AD (Fiscal) and policies that shift AS (Supply-Side) to avoid confusion. 练习说明移动AD的政策（财政）和移动AS的政策（供给侧）之间的区别，以避免混淆。

Economic Theory Application: 经济学理论应用：

For Supply-Side Policies, memorize the core mechanism for each example: Healthcare/Infrastructure leads to productive labour/efficiency, which shifts LRAS/AS right. 对于供给侧政策，记住每个例子的核心机制：医疗/基础设施带来高效率的劳动力/效率，从而使LRAS/AS向右移动。

Recommended Supplementary Learning Resources or Homework 推荐的补充学习资源或家庭作业

Review notes on Interventionist vs. Free Market SSPs. Prepare to discuss the role of trade unions and labor market flexibility in depth next session. 复习关于干预主义与自由市场供给侧政策的笔记。准备在下次课深入讨论工会在劳动力市场灵活性中的作用。
