[T.E.A.M.] Sharing Our Practice 分享我们的教育实践

At Yew Chung International School of Beijing, along with a focus on traditional learning objectives (such as a mastery of maths, languages and sciences), an emphasis is also placed on the development of soft skills as a way to better prepare students for the world that awaits beyond graduation. The ability to collaborate and to communicate effectively is a skill set that will be increasingly valued during the 21st century.

北京耀中国际学校关注传统的学习目标（如掌握数学、语言及科学），同时也强调发展学生的软技能，使学生为未来做好更充分的准备。在二十一世纪，人们越来越看重学生的写作及有效的沟通技能。

But while these soft skills are being taught to our students, how are they utilized by the teachers themselves?  At YCIS Beijing, collaboration between members of the academic team is encouraged and facilitated through shared office spaces, Teapot Time gatherings, and this year’s new initiative, Sharing Our Practice, during which teachers from various year levels and disciplines gather together to exchange ideas about how to improve student outcomes.

学生们在学习这些软技能，那老师这些方面做得怎样？在北京耀中国际学校，我们鼓励教师们透过共享的办公区域、举办茶聚，提高相互之间的协作。今年，不同年级、不同学科的老师经常齐聚一堂，一同分享如何提高学生的学习成果。

Anne Dwyer, an experienced educator with more than 30 years of experience in roles as teacher, head of school, and professional development coordinator, explains the process and purpose of the initiative and discusses the idea that “when teachers share, students win”.

北京耀中国际学校专业发展主管Anne Dwyer老师进一步解释这个活动的过程和目的，并讨论“老师分享，学生收获”话题。
