In the Renaissance Period (文艺复兴时期) (1500-1650),people became

interested in higher education. They wanted to learn the ancient languages such as

Greek and Latin- languages that were used in the old times, and study mathematics,】

scienceand so on. Many universities were set up in the 16th century.2

University education was a privilege (特权) of the rich. Girls were not allowedto attend and poor people could not afford to go. A member of a wealthy family could attend university at the age of ten. He might study in different universities and since the teaching was all done in Latin, it didn’t matter which country he studied in. It was not unusual for a young boy to study one year in Italy and another in France without speaking either French or Italian.

It was possible in the 16th century to complete university without learning how to read or write. Since books were handwritten, there was not enough to give one to each student. Often, only the teacher had a book. He would read to the students who would memorize what he said. Tests were oral, not written, In fact, many students finished school without ever writing a word.

Grammar schools were built in towns for the not -so-wealthy. They learned basic grammar and mathematics, and took part in Bible study. At home, girls learned washing, cooking, dancing, and how to take care of their family. Poor children rarely attended school.

The Renaissance was a time when learners did not simply accept what they were told. They did scientific experiments themselves to search for answers to the mysteries of the space. Copernicus worked out that the earth turned around the sun but was afraid to publish his works for fear that the Church would punish him. Galileo(伽利略) later supported this. The watch, the telescope and some others were some inventions of this period.
