Dulwich College Seoul was awarded Teaching Initiative of the Year at the British International School Awards for 2018 in London this January. Mathematics teachers Neil Gorton and Chris Bonnet accepted the award on behalf of Dulwich College Seoul.

The award was in recognition of their initiative designed to change the delivery of their primary mathematics curriculum from traditional blocks of content to the spacing and interleaving (IL/SP) approach, based on the work by Robert Bjork of UCLA.

Teachers at the school had noticed a trend that some of the younger students were good in isolated topic areas and end of unit exams, but limited in problem solving when lateral and creative thinking was required, with poor cumulative assessment results. The three-year project has been immensely successful, with evidence from assessments and surveys showing an increased confidence in applying mathematical principles and increased achievement in students’ results.

At Dulwich College International schools, we encourage students to take risks with their learning. While we want students to respect the benefits of traditional solutions we also want them to experiment with potential improvements and to be courageous in class by offering an opinion or challenging dogma. We congratulate the staff at Dulwich College Seoul for this incredible accomplishment, and for continuing to put students first.

首尔德威英国国际学校

荣获2018国际教学奖

今年一月在伦敦举办的2018年度英国国际学校奖的颁奖礼上，首尔德威英国国际学校荣获年度教学创新奖。数学教师尼尔·戈顿（Neil Gorton）和克里斯·博内特（Chris Bonnet）代表学校领取了这一奖项。

该奖项旨在表彰首尔德威学校在小学数学教学上的创新。基于加州大学洛杉矶分校的罗伯特·比约克（Robert Bjork）关于交叉和间距如何提高回忆和记忆储存能力的研究，首尔德威学校将数学课上传统的成块内容教学法改为交叉间距教学法。

尝试这种教学创新的原因是一些教师发现，一些小学低年级的学生单个知识点掌握得不错，单元末的测试成绩也挺好，但是在需要用发散和创新思维解决问题时就略显不足，累积评估的结果也不理想。这项为期三年的教学改革项目取得了显著的成效，评估和调查结果均显示学生在运用数学原理方面信心倍增，学生的成绩也有提高。

德威国际学校始终鼓励学生在学习中勇于尝试和冒险。一方面，我们告诉学生传统的解法有其益处，值得尊重，但同时我们也要求他们寻找更好的做法，鼓励他们在课堂上提出自己的想法，挑战教条。我们祝贺首尔德威英国国际学校的教职员工在坚持以学生为本原则的同时，取得了骄人成就。

英国国际学校奖（British International School Awards）旨在“表彰海外表现卓越的英国学校，推广学校分部分项的成就，以期通过最佳实践范本来树立行业基准。”（BIS杂志）http://www.bismagazine.co.uk/awards/
