Technology-enabled Learning
5th Annual Xiehe Pioneer Curriculum Professional Development Day
协和教育集团重视教师的专业发展，努力通过多元渠道提升教师素养。2020年9月19日，秋风送爽，协和双语学校各校区先锋班课程教师来到青浦校区，以线上、线下相结合的方式，参加第五届协和跨校区先锋课程教师专业发展日活动。
The Xiehe Education Group attaches great importance to the professional development of teachers and strives to improve the quality of education through a variety of channels. On September 19, 2020, Pioneer Curriculum teachers from Shanghai United International School campus came to the Qingpu Campus to participate in the 5th Annual Xiehe Pioneer Curriculum Professional Development Day, engaging in workshops through a combination of online and offline methods.
2020注定是不平凡的一年，突如其来的新冠疫情加速了教学方式的转变。“科技赋能教学”这一主题应运而生，课堂的物理空间得以延展，如何利用科技引发学生灵感，实现多元化的教育目标，是教育工作者面临的新挑战。
2020 is destined to be a special year. Without doubt, the sudden COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the transformation of teaching methods in classrooms around the world. Thus, the creation of the theme of “Technology-enabled Learning” for this event came into being: we have all come to realize that the physical space of the classroom can be extended through technology. How to use technology to inspire students and achieve diversified educational goals, though, is a new challenge for educators.
青浦校区欢迎致辞
WELCOME SPEECH FROM THE QINGPU CAMPUS
青浦校区中外方执行校长 黄莹、Dr. Adam Neufield
SUIS Qingpu Co-acting Principals Ms. Sunny Huang and Dr. Adam Neufield
青浦协和执行校长黄莹、Dr. Adam Neufield向各位老师的到来表达真挚欢迎。在经历过疫情期间的线上教学和科技对教育的巨大变革之后，“科技赋能教学”不单单是一个与时俱进的话题，也是一个非常有意义的课题。当今教育工作者对学生有很多期许，“批判性思维、清晰的沟通、持续的反思、协作、自我指导、研究、全球竞争力以及多角度看待问题”，往往排在比较重要的位置，而科技技术可以在这些方面发挥其积极的作用。一旦技术被整合到教学中，技术就会让所有的利益相关者——学生、教师、家长，关注学习过程和成长，而不仅仅是学习的结果。
The Co-acting Principals of Qingpu Campus, Ms. Sunny Huang and Dr. Adam Neufield, expressed their sincere welcome to all participating educators. “Technology-enabled Learning” is a most timely theme, given the changes that have taken place in education and our professional experiences over the past eight months. Critical thinking, clear communication, continuous reflection, collaboration, self-direction, research skills, global competencies, and looking at issues from multiple perspectives…these are necessary attributes that many educators would have at the top a list for any student nowadays, and technology can play a large role in developing these things. Once technology is integrated into pedagogy, technology lets all stakeholders — students, teachers, parents — focus on the learning process and growth and not just on the product.
科技技术也不仅仅是一门需要学习的学科。它是一个工具，是一个用来支持协和集团和协和双语学校实现愿景的重要方法。作为教育者，在日常工作中整合并使用技术是一个复杂又交互的过程。我们希望并相信大家会在教育创新的路上越走越远，越走越好。
Technology is not only a subject to be learned – it is a tool to be used to support our organization’s and schools’ vision. Integrating technology in what we do as educators, though, is a multistep process that is complex and interdependent. It was our hope and trust that teachers came away from today’s PD event having taken at least a small step towards the innovation that we need to realize in our classrooms.
协和教育集团欢迎致辞
WELCOME SPEECH FROM XIEHE EDUCATION GROUP
协和教育集团总校长 卢慧文
Ms. Maxine Lu, General Principal of the Xiehe Education Group
协和教育集团总校长卢慧文以简洁新颖的方式开启致辞。在筹备此次培训活动期间，卢慧文校长采访了几名协和双语毕业校友，他们即将大学毕业迈入工作岗位和社会，请年轻人说说自己对四个问题的看法。一，这一代人和下一代人最大的区别是什么？二，成年生活面对的挑战，哪些是出乎意料的？三，如果提前知道将面临的成年后挑战，你所受的中学教育中，哪些是值得庆幸的，哪些是应被改变的？四，你希望对学校提出的建议。
Ms. Maxine Lu, General Principal of the Xiehe Education Group, opened her speech in an innovative way. During the preparation for this event, she interviewed several SUIS graduate alumni who are about to graduate from college and enter work and society. These young people were invited to share their views on four different issues. First, what are the biggest differences between our two generations? Second, what challenges in adult life are unexpected? Third, if you knew the challenges you would eventually face as an adult, what would you be grateful for from your secondary school education? What would you change? And four, what advice and suggestions do you have for others?
通过这些年轻人的回答，我们发现两代人面对着不同挑战，作为长辈的家长和老师，我们的经验或许不足以指导这一代、甚至下一代的年轻人。即使是同龄人，对事物也有着截然不同的想法，一部人认为理所当然的，另一部分人则觉得匪夷所思。
Through the answers these young people provided, we learned that the two generations are facing different challenges. As older parents and teachers, our experiences may not be enough or suitable to guide the current young generation or even the next generation. Even people of the same age have completely different ideas about things.
反看每一个人的学习时代，许多当时作为前沿领域的知识，很快会成为过时的内容。然而，这并不阻碍每一代学子不断尝试探索，正因为当时的那些“酷玩意儿”打开了年轻人的视野，获得巨大的试错空间。作为教育者的我们，应当不断了解学生的真实想法，对新科技、新技术不恐惧，并时刻保持初心——教育的本质终究要回归于“人”，激发学生的人文素养、感知共情，不是与科技做比拼，培养孩子具备作为“人”方有的才能，为未来世界的各种可能做好准备。
Looking back at everyone’s school life, much of the knowledge that was at the cutting-edge of different fields soon becomes out-of-date. However, this does not hinder every generation of students from constantly trying to explore, because the ‘cool stuff’ at that time opens up the horizons of young people and gains a huge space for trial and error. As educators, we should constantly understand the real ideas of our students, to not be afraid of new technologies, and to always maintain our original purposes – to make the essence of education ‘human’ and to stimulate students’ humanistic qualities and to be empathetic.
主旨演讲 KEYNOTE SPEECH
传统与颠覆：“以学生为中心”的科技赋能教学
Tradition and Change: “Student-centered” Technology-enabled Teaching
沈富可教授 Professor Shen Fuke
华东师范大学信息化治理委员会秘书长，计算机科学与技术学院教授
Secretary General of CIO Office, East China Normal University, Professor of The College of Computer Science and Technology
沈富可教授从教育的传统模式和新新模式间的矛盾、科技引入教育产生的正负两面作为切入点，向我们分享信息技术在推动育人模式中的探索。
Professor Shen Fuke started his speech illustrating the contradiction between the traditional mode of education and the contemporary model, reminding us about the positive and negative sides of the introduction of technology into education, and sharing with us about the exploration of information technology in the promotion of educational modes.
科技的到来为传统的教育模式产生了颠覆。以前的课堂遵照着“传道授业解惑”，老师单方面向学生输出知识。然而，在知识扁平化的今天，学生的知识获取早已不局限于课堂，学生知道的或许比老师更快。如何引领学生，帮助学生实现梦想、实现更多元的教育目标，是教师们新的挑战。
Technology has changed the traditional education model. In the past, the teacher unilaterally exported knowledge to the students. However, today, students’ knowledge acquisition is no longer limited to the classroom, and students are able to acquire more information on a given topic than teachers can provide. So, how we lead students, help them realize their dreams and achieve more diverse educational goals, is a new challenge for teachers.
科技确实给教育带来了美好预期，但面对现实状况，当前的教育信息化仍然存在值得进步之处——提高效率和精准度、实现教育理念、回归育人初心、实现科技优势的可持续等等。科技赋能教育至今还未得到完美的答案，因此更激励着教育工作者不断探索，发现更多更好的优化方式。
Technology has indeed brought good expectations to education, but in the face of reality, there are still areas worthy of progress: improving efficiency and accuracy, realizing educational concepts, returning to the original intention of education, and realizing the sustainability of technological advantages, and more. Because technology-enabled learning has yet to find a perfect answer, it encourages educators to continue to explore and find more and better methods.
