IB-PYP课程设计和探究

　　Curriculum planner and inquiry

　　IB-PYP(小学)项目的目的之一是为3-12岁年龄阶段的学生创建具有趣味性、相关性、挑战性和跨学科的探究课程。因此，我们非常重视教学法和教学课程。这两天在协调员Ms.hailani的专业引领下，我们围绕“如何更有效地开展教学”。

　　One of the goals of the IB-PYP programme is to build an interesting, relevant, challenging transdisciplinary programme of inquiry. With the professional guidance of our coordinator Ms. Shailani, we had professional development training on the Enhanced PYP centering on “how to develop teaching more effectively”.

中学部Secondary

DP认识论CAT3培训

　　DP TOK (Theory of Knowledge) training

　　作为IB老师，为什么要参加“认识论”培训？

　　认识论是DP的核心课程，是一门培养审辨式思维及对知识进行探索过程，所有的DP学生都必须学习和完成的科目。认识论具有串起所有学科知识及目标的功能。

　　The theory of knowledge (TOK) course is a core component of the IB-DP that fosters critical thinking and exploration of knowledge. This workshop was run by an IB workshop leader Ms. Fenia Rizoponlou and provides IB certification for our teachers.  The workshop developed strategies for all subject teachers to use within their lessons to link TOK to their subject.

　　我们请来了非常专业的IB培训师Ms.Fenia Rizoponlou给中学部的老师进行了DP知识论的培训。她有着多年的认识论的教学经验，曾担任过DP、MYP协调员，IBEN的核实员。她也是IB认证的教育专家，为各IB学校提供关于知识论的专业培训。

　　Ms. Fenia Rizoponlou has many years of TOK teaching experience and has worked as a DP coordinator and an MYP coordinator. She is a registered IB Educator providing workshops to IB schools on TOK.

　　学习是为了更好的未来，在元耕山语湖双语国际学校，我们为老师提供持续的专业培训以提高老师们的教学质量，继而帮助学生得到更好的教育。我们相信，要“培养终身学习者去迎接21世纪全球性挑战”，每一位老师首先要成为终身学习的示范者与践行者。

　　Learning is for a better future. At CBIS Bilingual International School, we provide continued professional development for our teachers to improve their teaching and subsequently improve the learning of our students. We believe that for cultivating lifelong learners to meet the global challenges of the 21st century, every teacher should become a model and practitioner of lifelong learning.

　　踏进12月CBIS活动月，孩子们将踏上不同的舞台勇敢地展示自我。每一次新的尝试都是学习,每一次行动都是进步。让我们一起为孩子们加油，为他们每一次勇敢尝试而喝彩。

　　December is a time for winter celebrations around the world. Our CBIS students will showcase their talents at events within school and at external venues in Foshan. These events provide the opportunity for our students to challenge themselves and grow holistically whilst celebrating winter festivals.
