In Europe and America, many schools attach importance to teaching in small classes, and it is more common to control the class size to about 15 students. In the United States, for example, some high-quality primary and secondary schools and private universities often adopt small class teaching mode. According to the data of American educational research institutions, in the small class teaching environment (15-20 students in each class), students' academic performance has been significantly improved in reading, mathematics and other disciplines. For example, in reading, the average improvement rate of reading ability of small class students is about 20% higher than that of large class students. This is because teachers can adjust teaching strategies more accurately according to each student's reading level in small classes.Second, the advantage of controlling the class size to 15 peopleWhen the class size is controlled at 15 students, teachers can know more about each student's learning situation. Teachers can provide targeted counseling for each student's weak points of knowledge. For example, in mathematics teaching, teachers may only explain the knowledge points in a large class, but in a class of 15 students, teachers can find each student's problems in algebra, geometry and other different sectors, so as to explain the problem-solving ideas in a personalized way.

Cultivate all-round talentsIn terms of social concept, many parents and social people are accustomed to the traditional large class teaching mode and think that large class teaching is a normal state. To change this concept, education departments and schools need to carry out extensive publicity. The exhibition of educational achievements can be held to show the outstanding achievements of students in small class teaching, including the achievements of students' academic progress and comprehensive quality improvement.
This class size is also convenient to carry out inquiry learning. Every student has more opportunities to participate in discussions and experiments, and it is no longer a few students who dominate classroom interaction. In science class, 15 students can be divided into several groups to carry out experimental exploration, and each student can operate the instrument, observe the experimental phenomena and put forward his own opinions. This is helpful to improve students' scientific inquiry ability and innovative thinking ability.Schools can also relieve pressure by integrating resources. For example, make rational use of idle space on campus and transform it into classrooms, and share some educational resources through cooperation with the community. At the same time, improve the utilization rate of educational resources, such as using digital teaching equipment to reduce dependence on traditional teaching resources.
