“Critical thinkers. Purposeful doers. Creative thinkers. Connected learners.” These are the core descriptions that define the students of the BCIS IDEATE diploma program. These young scholars thrive through learning environments and experiences that blend experiential learning, transfer learning, self-directed learning, and social-emotional learning. Being empowered to follow their passions and interests, the students are able to build their skills and strengths through entrepreneurial projects they fully believe and support.
在北京乐成国际学校(BCIS),我们鼓励学生兼收并蓄、获得博学多才的学业成就。因此我们在国际文凭大学预科课程之外,自主研发并开设了高中创思课程(IDEATE),支持学生选择自己感兴趣的领域中的一个课题学习并深入研究,同课程实践相结合,并与学生的未来发展有效衔接。于是,在BCIS有这么一群学生,明明已经有很多课要上,还要为申请大学做准备,却偏偏不走寻常路,每天要花2节课的时间去做自己喜欢的“杂事”,譬如养点冷血动物、做点首饰、设计点衣服、创个潮牌什么的,他们便是IDEATE高中创思课程的学生。近日,IDEATE的学生将他们一年以来的学习成果集中展出,向社区成员们揭开了他们优秀的另一面。
Recently, the inaugural group of Grade 12 students that took part in this special program held an exhibition to showcase the progress of their personalized studies. From growing artificial crystals, raising leopard geckos, making shirts highlighting Beijing culture, and creating shoe braces for foot injuries, to designing dog jewelry pet owners can actually wear, illustrating a recipe book of simple (yet delicious) dishes, and even making their own film, the young creatives certainly proved they possess ingenious ideas and the entrepreneurial spirit. Student Jerry Li, who created his own fashion brand called the “Angler Gang,” mentioned the program has allowed him to pursue and focus on his passion and beliefs, while also giving the confidence to further promote the hip-hop culture to the public. Student Abraham You, who also expresses himself through unique fashion, shared that he has been able to explore many of his creative ideas through the program, leading to discovering more of his personal aesthetics and style.
Maggie Wang将首饰设计延伸到宠物领域,将皮革、毛线等材料与狗狗的玩具结合,制作成项链、帽子等配饰,让它们成为人与宠物互动的桥梁。制作人工水晶只是Lila Zhang研究课题的一部分,接下来,她还计划将人工水晶切割成不同的形状、或是制作成琥珀的样式,做成饰品,让它们发挥实际的作用。HaoTian则带来了自己动物园中的两只蜥蜴,课题的任务让他第一次开始从专业的角度研究蜥蜴的创新繁殖,并和一群志同道合的伙伴参与出版了一本有行业意义的指南。Harry和我们分享了3份作品,其中之一是他自己设计的T恤,他将十二生肖同中国一些地标性建筑的照片印在衣服上,成为了对中国传统文化更全面的展示平台。
The members of the Class of 2019 in the IDEATE program have truly taken control of their own learning and growth to express their unique selves. They have gained self-confidence and even greater abilities. Furthermore, they have gained awareness and clear minds regarding what passions and goals they would like to pursue. If the recent exhibition these entrepreneurs held is any indication of what’s to come, we are certainly looking forward to learning about all their endeavors in the near future.
通过和IDEATE学生的交流,我们发现,他们往往会从某一个小小的兴趣点出发,在达成研究目标的过程中接触到其他领域的知识、借助跨学科的方式掌握未曾习得的技能。这不仅为他们成功申请心仪学府加分不少,更重要的是在完成课题的过程中,学生需要自主学习、实践调研、同老师探讨、与同学协作、拓展思路、接触多元领域的知识,这些将对他们日后的个人发展提供更有意义的帮助。
