“集体学习是一种高效共享信息的方式,通过这一途径,个人的见解可以存储在社区的集体记忆中,并得以代代相传。”正如七年级学生在“探险活动如何影响全球互动”这一单元中所学到的,信息的共享可以通过不同的沟通方式来实现。
同一时段,小学三年级学生正学习地球的大陆板块,探索人类是如何通过探险活动将地球陆地连成整体,还探究着航海家克里斯托弗·哥伦布及其地理大发现是如何影响全球互动的故事。
"Collective learning is the ability to share information so efficiently that the ideas of individuals can be stored within the collective memory of communities and can accumulate through generations". As Grade 7 students have learned in their unit 'How does exploration affect global interactions?', sharing information can be done through different means of communication.
At the same time, in PYP Grade 3 students were exploring the different continents of our planet. To then discover how people have connected through exploration across the globe. They learned about Christopher Columbus and how his discovery affected global interactions.
当被问及是否愿意把握机会进行集体学习并成为勇于冒险的人时,七年级的学生积极响应,期待着与三年级的学生分享他们对这一单元内容的知识和见解。在3月9日,他们很快地收拾好资料,带上调查作品,自信地踏上这段知识共享的旅程。抵达三年级的教室后,七年级学生受到了热烈欢迎,犹如任何一场冒险,总有惊喜相伴——因为在此之前,七年级以为三年级学生会是害羞的听众。然而,迎接他们的是热情的交流者,在此氛围烘托下,他们兴奋地分享知识和他们所创作的作品。
The opportunity was there for the risk-takers interested in taking it. When asked, the 7th graders were excited to share their knowledge and understanding from this unit with the 3rd graders. So, on March 9, they packed their materials, carried the evidence of the work that they had investigated, and confidently set off on their journey. Upon arrival, they were warmly welcomed, and like in any good adventure, there are always some surprises. Even though Grade 7 students were expecting shy listeners, they were greeted by eager communicators excited to share their knowledge and the different work they had produced.
七年级学生一直致力于提高TWIS的集体学习能力,他们自豪地展示了大型世界地图,并根据个人研究在地图上标注了不同探险家的路线。即使年级不同,但相同的是他们都对探险家的冒险故事充满了好奇,因此,这一学习时刻变得趣味无穷。在离开之时,三年级的学生依依不舍,盛情邀请七年级学生再次到来。
As Grade 7 remained committed to increasing the collective learning within TWIS, they proudly showed their large world map with different explorers’ routes marked on the map based on their individual research. It was a fun and engaging moment as the excitement about explorers’ exploits was shared between the two classes. The Grade 7s left with an open invitation to come and visit again.
