四校区联动教师培训

 Union of 4 Main Campuses: VCA Teacher Training

来自阿灵顿校区的校长与校长夫人，Elgut夫妇，首先向四个校区的老师们讲解了美国古典精英教育的三大阶段：语法阶段、逻辑阶段、修辞阶段，并详细说明了每个阶段的教学任务和教学目标，他运用了大量发展心理学的原理，将儿童与青少年的成长趋势与学校教育紧密相连，展现出威睿达思学校特色教育系统的优势，也提升了四个校区老师们的认同感和凝聚力。

The principal and his wife, Elgut, from the Arlington campus, first explained to the teachers in the four campuses the three stages of American classical elite education: grammar stage, logic stage, and rhetoric stage, and elaborated on the teaching tasks and objectives of each stage. He applied a large number of principles of developmental psychology to closely link the growth trends of children and adolescents with school education, demonstrating the advantages of the distinctive education system of VCA and enhancing the sense of identity and cohesion of the teachers in the four campuses.

Elgut校长还建议老师们鼓励学生参加大量文学、科学的竞赛项目，在紧张的竞争环境中，学生可以更加积极地提升知识水平与抗压能力。Elgut夫人补充道：“我非常同意在学习的过程中发现乐趣的教学思路，教师应该教授学生的不仅仅是知识本身，更是他们架构知识与时间管理的能力，她还提到在美国的校区，学校的教育管理者都非常注重三个方面，分别是：truth（knowledge），beauty（art music），goodness（good virtue）

Principal Elgut also suggests that teachers encourage students to participate in a large number of literary and scientific competition projects. In a tense competitive environment, students can actively improve their knowledge level and stress resistance. Mrs. Elgut added, 'I strongly agree with the teaching approach of discovering joy in the learning process. Teachers should not only teach students the knowledge itself, but also their ability to structure knowledge and manage time. She also mentioned that in American campuses, educational administrators place great emphasis on three aspects, namely:truth（knowledge），beauty（art music），goodness（good virtue）

来自切萨皮克校区的校长Keating先生向各校区教授Omnibus相关课程的老师们分享了一本教育学的经典著作——《The Well Educated Mind——A Guide to the Classical Education You Never Had》，他认为VCA每一位Omnibus的老师都应该仔细研究这本著作，这对文史类教学的帮助很大。

Mr. Keating, the principal from the Chesapeake campus, shared a classic educational book called "The Well Educated Mind - A Guide to the Classical Education You Never Had" with teachers who teach Omnibus related courses at various campuses. He believes that every Omnibus teacher at VCA should carefully study this book, which is of great help to cultural and historical teaching.

在书中，他尤其推荐了阅读训练的第二个阶段《Practice the Machanics of Reading》，他建议教师们要明确阅读的功能性与实用性，培养学生长篇阅读的能力。同时，他还鼓励老师们带领学生走出传统课堂，与自然亲密接触，除了可以带学生在更加实用性的环境中建立语言系统，更能够让学生在轻松愉悦的心境下学习知识，让枯燥的文史课程变成寓教于乐的温床。

In the book, he particularly recommends the second stage of reading training, "Practice the Machanics of Reading," and suggests that teachers should clarify the functionality and practicality of reading, and cultivate students' ability to read long texts. At the same time, he also encourages teachers to lead students out of traditional classrooms and have intimate contact with nature. This not only helps students establish language systems in a more practical environment, but also enables them to learn knowledge in a relaxed and enjoyable state of mind, turning dull cultural and historical courses into a breeding ground for teaching and enjoyment.
