五、閱讀測驗 （ 占 3 2 分 ）第 36 至 39 題為題組    Some people call it a traveling museum. Others refer to it as a living or open-air museum. Builtin Brazil to celebrate the quincentennial of Columbus’ first voyage to the New World, the Nina, aColumbus-era replica ship, provides visitors with an accurate visual of the size and sailing implementsof Columbus’ favorite ship from over 500 years ago.    I joined the crew of the Nina in Gulf Shores, Alabama, in February 2013. As part of a research projectsponsored by my university, my goal was to document my days aboard the ship in a blog. I quickly realizedthat I gained the most valuable insights when I observed or gave tours to school-age children. The field-triptour of the Nina is hands-on learning at its best. In this setting, students could touch the line, pass around aballast stone, and move the extremely large tiller that steered the ships in Columbus’ day. They soon cameto understand the labor involved in sailing the ship back in his time. I was pleased to see the studentsbecome active participants in their learning process.    The Nina is not the only traveling museum that provides such field trips. A visit to JamestownSettlement, for example, allows visitors to board three re-creations of the ships that brought the first settlersfrom England to Virginia in the early 1600s. Historical interpreters, dressed in period garb, give tours to theSusan Constant, Godspeed, and Discovery. These interpreters often portray a character that would havelived and worked during that time period. Students touring these ships are encouraged to interact with theinterpreters in order to better understand the daily life in the past.     My experience on the Nina helps substantiate my long-held belief that students stay interested, askbetter questions, and engage in higher-order thinking tasks when they are actively engaged in the learningprocess. The students who boarded the Nina came as passive learners. They left as bold explorers.
