协和教育集团总校长卢慧文女士为此次活动致欢迎辞 “教师专业发展是教育教学不可分割的重要组成部分。只有通过不断的学习,才能提升专业教学技能,保持与日俱进的知识更新,并具备运用不断更迭的教育科技的能力。协和教师专业发展日就是为各校区的老师们提供这样一个继续学习的机会,同时也为各校区的老师们提供一个相互交流的平台。今年,我们又迎来了青浦和合肥两所校区,中外教师队伍不断壮大,承担的社会责任也越来越重。因此,我们协和集团所有中外员工更是责无旁贷,在原有的知识结构、认知系统和操作经验的基础上,不断学习和进步,为自己的成功打下坚实的基础,从而更好地适应学校和集团在未来教育发展中的需要。”
The general principal of Xiehe Education Group Maxine Lu delivered the opening speech.Professional development is accepted as an integral part of teachers’ education, because only a continual learning and training ensures a high level of expertise and enables the teachers to keep their professional skills, knowledge up-to-date, whilst also having the ability to use modern technologies. Our PD Day also provides teachers from all campuses with such an opportunity to learn consistently, a platform to interact with peers and counterparts. This year, we will have two new campuses, Qingpu and Hefei, opening soon in the coming September, so our staff team is getting ever bigger again, and therefore, more social responsibilities will be taken on with regards to our staff, both foreigners and locals. It’s necessary to continue to enrich the learning and develop professional careers with strong foundation built upon the original information, cognition and prior experience, so as to meet the requirements for our future needs.
