以史為鏡可以知興替

Learning from History

我們相信溝通比語言更重能增進學生能力，讓學生接觸不同的文化和人民，可幫助學生成為世界公民。

歷史課程的教學目標是培養全球公民，保證學生擁有史觀、政治、經濟、文化和地理知識。

作為歷史學習者，學生從不同的文本和媒體學習，提升學生做筆記和定義關鍵重點的能力，也教導學生分析第一手和深入的資料，歷史的學習必須應用因果概念和對比，針對不同的事件和時期，學習批判思考，解決問題，了解深層的連結關係。從模擬，辯論和報告的計畫，建立自信和發表能力。這些技巧建立提供學生深入學習以及面對未來的能力。

We believe that the ability to communicate in more than one language gives students the ability to relate better to other culture and people, and results in better global citizens.

 

The goal of the school history program is to cultivate global citizens by ensuring our students have knowledge of history, governments, economics, culture, and geography.

 

As a learner of history, students are exposed to different types of text and media. This provides opportunities to enhance note-taking skills and identify key points. Students are also expected to analyze primary and secondary sources. In studying history, students must apply the concepts of “ cause and effect” as well as “ comparison and contrast”. While studying different time periods and events, students must incorporate critical thinking skills and problem solving in order to show understanding and deeper connections. Also, simulations, debates, and presentations are part of the program. These speaking opportunities allow students to gain confidence in the classroom and showcase what they have learned. Finally, students develop research and information literacy skills. These skills provide a strong foundation for upper school history course s and prepare students for the challenges ahead.
