运用office lens让课本‘说话’

这是一个很有用的教学工具。学生一旦有了这个App,就能够自己练习听力。从学生自己产生自己的句子(speaking/production),用电脑打出(practising pinyin/reading),经过老师修改(feedback),到印出文本(reading),再用Office Lens练习(自己作品)的听力(listening)。这是一个非常有效的语言学习方式。


《雾霾风暴》- 一个探讨环境问题的有效教材

教学资源分享

这个视频适用于第四个议题:世界公民。雾霾是中国经济高速发展的最大副作用之一。它不仅是中国人生存环境的威胁,也是世界环境恶化的一环。面对如此恶劣的空气污染,中国人用这种自我调侃的方式来表达内心的不悦。谁说中国人没有想象力呢?

短短几分钟的《雾霾风暴》(古装剧大咖云集)可作为开启这个议题的Stimulus,由此引发学生们的讨论与思考。

一个不错的教学资源:与全世界做生意 第一集 与世界的距离【A Biz Date with the World EP01】

教学资源分享

这是一个非常不错的教学资源。很适合第五个议题:国际情境下的华人身份认同(Chinese identity in the international context)。中国国际地位的增强跟它的经济实力有关,而经济的发展是离不开人与文化的因素的。学生们若能理解(中国)人与文化的这两个因素,自然就比较能够产生对中国或中国文化的认同。

瓶裝水的故事_The Story of Bottled Water_中文字幕

教学资源共享


这是一个培养学生批判性思考能力(critical thinking skills)的好教材。学生并一定要接受作者的观点和看法。但它可以让学生从不同的角度去思考环境的问题。老师们可来教第四个议题:世界公民(The individual as a global citizen),尤其是从国际的视野来看待。

“多重职业”成为全球新趋势

教学资源共享

这是一篇很有前瞻性的文章。它提到未来人们”多重职业“的趋势。事实上,”多重职业“已经不是未来式,而是正在发生的‘现在式’。”共享经济时代”(The Business of Sharing)的作者Alex Stephany已经在他的书中提到了这种趋势的出现与发展。这篇文章很适合Heritage 课程的第三个议题:未来工作形态的改变(The changing nature of work). 对许多年轻人来说,这不仅是有利于考试的‘深层次的知识’ (Deep knowledge),也是涉及他们自身未来的‘思想准备’。

元宵节的故事

资源共享

这个短短的视频介绍了中国传统节日 - 元宵节。它很适合Heritage 课程的第二个议题:传统与价值观。它让海外的华裔子弟了解了自己的文化传统。在传统逐渐被忽略的这个时代,元宵节的故事提醒了我们中华文化浪漫的一面。
