战疫情|赫德外教们用行动诠释:“这座城市就是我的城市!”

写在前面:

受疫情影响,开学时间不得不一推再推。在这段特殊时期,孩子们无法走进教室享受往日课程所带来的乐趣,取而代之的是,通过网络在线学习的方式进行上课。在赫德,从最初为学生们提供丰富的线上学习资源,到现在通过直播的形式,有计划有条理地进行各种课程的学习,可以说,这种疫情期间创新的上课方式,其实对孩子们的成长有着极其重要的作用。

今天,青岛赫德小学部Jamie校长,将通过全方位解读线上教学, 帮助家长们更加理解在线教育,有效帮助孩子进行线上学习。

During this time of the coronavirus epidemic, children are unable to enter the classroom to enjoy the fun of learning with their peers. Instead, they can take classes through online learning. At HD Qingdao, the school initially provided a wealth of online learning resources for students, but now, through live broadcasts, students are engaging in live lessons with their teachers over the internet. It can be said that this innovative way of teaching can play an important role in supporting the development of our students.

Today, the principal of HD Qingdao Primary school, Jamie, will help parents understand online education through a reflective article that provides some hints and tips for overcoming the challenges.

一场突如其来的疫情,让我们看到了太多温暖和感动。当外教老师们疫情期间毅然选择留在青岛;当他们将这座城市视为自己的城市;当他们带着期盼和思念,想要尽快返校;当他们兢兢业业忙碌于线上教学,每一个画面都是那样暖心。从他们的言语之中,我们能够真切地感受到,他们对于青岛的爱,对于赫德的爱。

Since the outbreak of the Coronavirus in China, schools have been forced to close for an, as yet, unknown length of time. In this situation, teachers at HD Qingdao are trying to make the best of the situation and use the current period as productively as possible by providing a quality online learning experience for our students.

自从新冠病毒在中国爆发以来, 学校不得不推迟开学。在这种情况下,青岛赫德的老师们正在竭尽全力为学生们提供优质的在线教育服务。

I’m sure I speak for all the teachers, students and parents in our community when I say that despite how fun and exciting online learning can be, we’d all much rather be at school and can’t wait for the day when HD Qingdao opens its gates again.

在过去的这段时间里,孩子们一直在学习学校所精心准备的线上课程,线上课程都非常有趣,饶是如此,我相信,孩子们、老师们、家长们依然希望尽快回到校园,坐在我们熟悉的教室里,继续我们的日常校园生活。

The challenge of online learning

在线学习面临的挑战


黄岛私立小学

Online teaching and learning is generally less effective than teaching in the classroom because it restricts a teacher’s ability to ask individual questions and respond in real time to students’ needs.

与线下课堂相比,在线教学确实存在一些不足之处,它限制了老师与学生在课堂上的互动与沟通。

In a classroom, the teacher can pose questions, test existing knowledge and then adapt the lessons to the children’s current understanding, providing more support to those individuals who need it. This means that teaching and learning, as much as possible, is tailored in real time to the needs of each child.

在教室里进行教学, 老师可以提出问题, 测试学生已掌握的知识, 然后根据大家目前对于知识的理解程度调整课程, 为那些需要帮助的学生提供更多的支持。这意味着,教与学都尽可能地根据每个孩子的需求进行实时调整,量身定制

This is far more difficult to do in an online context. Live lessons over the internet provide the next best thing to classroom teaching but even here, it is difficult for teachers to interact with each child and find out what level of individual support they require to make the best possible progress.

课堂教学的优势在网络教学中很难实现,即使网络教学是仅次于课堂教学的最佳方式, 但老师们也很难与每个孩子进行有意义的互动, 并找出他们需要什么程度的个别辅导才能取得最大的进步。

So, we are under no illusion – online learning does present challenges to the teaching and learning process.

我们得承认——在线学习确实在教与学方面都存在挑战。

The benefits of online learning

在线教学的益处

Because we recognise the challenges associated with teaching and learning over the internet, this does not mean that we should dismiss it altogether.

虽然我们认识到了在线教学的一些问题和挑战, 但这也并不意味着,我们应该完全否定网络教学的作用。


There are several reasons why online learning can still be a valuable experience for our students during this difficult time:

特殊时期的在线学习,对于学生们来说,是一段弥足珍贵的经历。


1

Many of our students are confined to their homes during the coronavirus crisis and online learning provides a valuable opportunity to interact with others and maintain relationships with peers and teachers;

在新冠病毒疫情期间, 我们的许多学生都必须待在家里, 而在线学习提供了一个让他们与他人互动、与同学和老师保持良好关系的宝贵机会;


2

Although online learning does present challenges, this is not to say that it is without value. Online lessons that are pitched effectively and allow for real time interactions between teachers and students allow the students to practice key skills with English and other curriculum areas that will benefit them when they return to school;

虽然在线学习存在诸多挑战, 但并不是说它没有价值。高质量的在线课程, 能够实现老师和学生之间的实时互动, 让学生掌握英语以及其他课程中的重要知识, 这对他们返校后的继续学习是非常有利的;

Providing online lessons and activities provides a familiar routine for students and for teachers and this is key for maintaining wellbeing and mental health at this difficult time;

在线课程和活动,给学生和老师们提供了一个有规律的日常生活安排,这对于在这个特殊时期保持身心健康至关重要。


4

Not only can key academic skills be maintained and developed during this time, but subjects such as Music, Art, Dance and PE encourage students to think creatively and remain active even within the confines of their homes – another key ingredient for maintaining physical and mental health.

在此期间,在线学习不仅可以让学生们继续获取知识,而且音乐、艺术、舞蹈和体育等科目,还可以帮助学生们即使在家,也能够进行创造性地思考,保持运动——这是保持身心健康的另一个重要因素


5

With encouragement and the help of simple routines, children can develop their own levels of independence with regards to learning at home; organising their resources and ensuring they are ready at set times to engage in learning.This would be a great opportunity for many of our younger students to learn how to tell the time and then use this knowledge to help organise themselves for each day of learning at home.

通过鼓励学生自己规划日常安排,能够让他们在家中学习的这段时间,提高自主管理能力,他们需要整理好自己要学习的资源,并确保能够在规定的时间内进行学习。对于许多孩子来说,这是一个让他们学会如何规划时间,并且运用自我管理能力合理安排每一天的居家学习日程的绝佳机会。

My tips for improving online learning in your home

改善家中在线学习的技巧

Routines: ensure you establish a daily routine and that your child helps with this process. This will provide them with ownership over their learning and is likely to increase their motivation to engage with the process. 

It can be easy during this period to get into bad habits such as going to bed late and then waking up later in the day. This can lead to arguments as parents try to get their children ready for lessons that they do not feel motivated to take part in. Sit down with your child and plan the schedule for the week, ensuring that you make time for rest and plan in rewards when your child has worked hard.

日程安排:确保在孩子的协助下,共同建立起常规日程安排。这样能够提高他们学习的自主性,并且能够增加他们参与该过程的动力。

在此期间,容易养成晚睡晚起等不良习惯。由于父母试图让孩子们参与一些他们没有动力去参加的课程,也可能由此导致双方的争论。与您的孩子坐下来,一同计划一周的时间表,其中,既要确保孩子有时间休息,也要在孩子努力付出时,给他一些奖励。


Create a defined work and resource area: by creating a defined work space with all the resources easily accessible, it helps to create boundaries in the home and children learn that when they are in this space, it is time to concentrate and learn. 

创建一个固定的学习区域:划定一个明确的学习空间,将学习所需要的材料等资源都放在里面,通过划定明确的学习空间范围,孩子们会知道, 当他们处于这个空间时, 便是需要集中精力学习的时候。


Restrict Screen Time: One of the concerns that many parents have about online learning is related to the amount of screen time it forces on young children.Ensure that when lessons are complete, you plan alternative activities for your child to engage with, such as reading stories, painting, drawing and exercise. This will ensure that your child develops a balanced and healthy relationship with technology.


限制看屏幕的时间:对于在线学习,家长们的顾虑之一,在于孩子们必须长时间接触屏幕。家长们需要确保在课程结束后, 为孩子们安排阅读故事、绘画、拉伸和锻炼等其他活动,这将使得您的孩子学会如何平衡自身健康与科技发展的关系。
