This diverse set of workshops at this conference will meet a cross-section of focus areas, roles, interests and year levels. We thank the amazing Chinese educators for their generosity in offering these workshops.
Throughout the conference, there will be opportunities to construct meaning and to connect with others to share ideas and practice. The conference will enable educators to consider their own educational settings and reflect on how what they are learning can be applied to their own setting.
本次研讨会的系列讲座从教育的各个层面进行梳理，充分照顾到与会者的角色，兴趣和所教年龄段的特色。我们衷心感谢几位国际教育业界杰出的中国教育工作者为本次研讨会做出的贡献。
与会者们在参与过程中将有机会构建自己的理解和意义，与他人建立联系，分享想法，并进行实践。通过参与本次研讨会，与会者应把学到的新知识和技巧有机地与自身身处的教育环境相结合，在日后的教学中不断内化，提炼，创造出能够回应自己学校群体和学生需要的最佳化教学。
Paid Webinar - Young Children as Thinkers and Theory Builders April 18th & 25th
Join us to learn about how to document and support children's learning processes and thinking. The emphasis is placed on how to build a culture of thinking and curiosity that promotes conceptual understanding and theory building. This revolves around high degrees of intentionality and responsiveness by planning for learning that is open-ended and uncertain and invites children to wonder, explore, experiment and play with ideas and theories.
