欢迎同学们回归,开启第二学期的校园生活。
Welcome back to Semester 2 at SUIS Pudong-Sanlin Campus.
模考周正式开始了,对于学生们和老师们来说,这都将是忙碌的开始。
We have kicked off our first week back to school with our Mock Examinations which is going to a busy time for both students and teachers.
为了应对考试,学生们将花费大量时间复习,写笔记,以及坐在考场内参加考试。我们都知道“熟能生巧”,这次模拟考试将为他们提供真实的考试体验:依照要求准时进入考场,参加测试,并在考试时间内完成所有答题,摆脱他们可能出现的“怯场”。通过考试,学生们也会了解到在正式参加5月-6月的大考前他们还需要做哪些课程学习准备。
Students will be spending a lot of time revising, writing notes, and obviously sitting the examinations. We all know that “Practice makes perfect” and this mock examination will provide them with authentic examination experiences: sitting in an examination hall, arriving at the venue on the right day and at the correct time, managing their time during the examinations and getting rid of their “stage fright”. Students will also find out where they are at and see what they will need to revisit before the real external examinations in May/June this year.
另一方面,模拟考试可以作为教师的教学的指南针。老师们将在考试后评估学生的表现,并提供个性化的学习反馈,以帮助学生们有针对性得提高。同时,老师们也会以此为基础,修改他们的教学计划以“填补空白”——回顾薄弱环节,强调关键点并练习重要的考试技巧。
On the other hands, mock examinations can serve as a performance indicator for teachers. Staff will gauge the performance of their students and give personalised formative feedback to help students improve. Teachers will also modify their teaching programme to “fill in the gaps” – recapping areas of weakness, re-emphasising key points and practising important examinations skills.
我们想重申的是,模拟考试的结束只是一个开始——本学期才刚刚开始,除了复习和练习之外,还有其他知识点需要涵盖。学生应继续充分参与课堂,在有疑问时提出问题,并尽最大能力完成分配的学习任务,按时提交作业以及在收到教师反馈后反复打磨。这是一个完整的学习过程,不应该懈怠。在学习的过程中,我们希望家长们也能参与其中并支持我们。
However, we would like to reiterate that the end of the mock examination is just a start – this semester has just begun and there are still materials to be covered in addition to revision and practice. Students should continue participating fully in class, learning as much as they can, asking questions when in doubt, completing assigned work to their best ability, submitting work on time as well as responding to written or verbal feedback upon receipt of their marked pieces of work. This is a complete learning process and should not be slack off. We would also like our parents to support us on this.
我们期待着一个全新的学期,一个同样硕果累累的学期。学校,老师和同学,在教育面前,我们都是携手并进的伙伴。当学年结束,回顾过去的每一步付出和努力,相信我们都将有所收获。
We look forward to another successful and productive Semester 2 and we are sure all parties will reap the benefits at the end of the academic year from all the time and effort we have all put in.
