恭喜我校学生
在John Locke Essay Competition中
荣获佳绩！
什么是John Locke Essay Competition？
John Locke Essay Competition（约翰·洛克论文竞赛）是一项由牛津大学和普林斯顿大学等名校教授联合组织的学术项目竞赛 。
覆盖哲学、政治、经济等七大人文社科领域，旨在鼓励年轻人培养独立思考、深度知识、清晰推理、批判性分析和有说服力的写作风格。
继全国地理最高奖后，协和三林学子再次在堪称文科竞赛“天花板”中获得佳绩。
本次我们邀请三林校区人文学科组长Mr. Hamilton与我们分享，三林校区的人文课堂是如何呈现，以及对未来想选择人文专业学生的建议。
“首先我要再次恭喜Annie和Kallie，她们在学业上的付出和努力，值得赞扬。这确实也是一个巨大的成就！
Annie和Kallie在Igcse阶段就选修了3门人文学科，并在alevel阶段深入学习。
本次比赛中，他们的选题分别是“Does God reward those who believe in him? If so, why”和“What is the optimal global population”，而探讨这些话题，需要学生有全面的学科知识作为基础，也得益于协和学校丰富的学科设置。
在三林校区，我们开设历史、地理、经济供学生选择。在人文课堂中，当学习新知识时，学生需要提前进行独立研究，在课堂中积极讨论，将所学内容与学生的生活和全球时事联系起来，通过课堂展示、海报、小论文等形式，完成作业。也会利用户外教学，让学生走出课堂，结合所学的知识，再次巩固。
选择人文学科的学生，一定对世界充满好奇。具有全球视野、良好的写作能力和理解多元视角的意愿，这有助于他们培养出色的沟通技巧和对他人的同理心，帮助他们理解并探索、学习和认识这个世界。
对所有学生，我建议沉浸在你喜欢的学科中，并提升你的英语能力，以便能够理解、阅读和写出复杂的论点。养成定期阅读新闻、英文书籍的习惯，参与讨论、加入辩论俱乐部、模拟联合国或人文竞赛等，都是不错的方法。”
01
丰富的学科设置
从IGCSE阶段开始，协和三林校区提供丰富的选课，要求学生从中选择8门学科，其中包含的人文学科，例如历史、地理、经济，鼓励学生探索自己的兴趣科目。
在人文学科的教学中，注重培养学生的批判性思维和学术表达，这与John Locke Essay Competition的核心理念不谋而合。
02
全英教学环境
在协和三林校区，我们重视英文语言环境的重要性。英文实行分层走班，帮助不同英文基础的学生提高语言能力。除中文课外，所有科目授课语言为英文，外教占比60%。
03
往届优秀人文专业大学录取
我们鼓励更多热爱人文学科的同学，积极投身于自己喜欢的科目，在未来成为更加全面、有洞察力和参与感的个体。
Congratulations
to our students for winning awards in the John Locke Essay Competition!
What is John Locke Essay Competition？
The John Locke Essay Competition is an academic competition organised jointly by professors from prestigious universities such as Oxford and Princeton.
Covering seven major fields of humanities and social sciences, including philosophy, politics, and economics, it aims to encourage young people to develop independent thinking, in-depth knowledge, clear reasoning, critical analysis, and a persuasive writing style.
Following the national geography award, students from SUIS Sanlin campus have once again achieved outstanding results in what can be regarded as the "ceiling" of liberal arts competitions.
This time, we invite Mr. Hamilton, the head of the humanities department at Sanlin Campus to share with us how the humanities classes at Sanlin Campus are conducted and to offer advice for students who wish to choose humanities as their major in the future.
'Congratulations to Annie & Kallie for their hard work and dedication to their studies. It is truly a massive achievement. They both took all 3 Humanities classes at iGCSE and continue to pursue humanities at A-level.
Annie chose to write her essay on Theology answering the question ‘Does God reward those who believe in him? If so, why?’ and Kallie wrote her essay answering the Economics question ‘What is the optimal global population?’. These topics show the diversity of interests that exist at SUIS Pudong Sanlin Campus.
When introducing new topics in humanities classes, we always engage in classroom discussions and independent research to try and relate the content to the students’ lives and current events around the world. Complete assignments through presentations, posters, short essays, and other forms. Field trip is also utilized to take students out of the classroom and reinforce the knowledge they have learned.
Students who choose Humanities subjects are curious about the world around them, they have a global mindset, good writing skills and like to understand multiple perspectives. This helps develop good communication skills, and empathy for others and helps students make sense of the world they wish to go out to explore, study and travel.
For all students, I would suggest immersing yourself in the subjects you enjoy and developing your English language skills to be proficient enough to understand, read and write complex arguments so you can excel in a humanities subject. Simple habits like reading the news regularly, reading English language non-fiction books, engaging in discussions, joining debate clubs, model UN or Humanities competitions allow you to explore and discuss complex ideas.'
01
Various Course Options
Starting from the IGCSE, SUIS Sanlin Campus offers a rich selection of courses, requiring students to choose 8 subjects, including humanities such as history, geography, and economics, encouraging students to explore their interests.
In the teaching of humanities, there is a focus on cultivating students' critical thinking and academic expression, which aligns with the core philosophy of the John Locke Essay Competition.
02
Immersion in an English Teaching Environment
At SUIS Sanlin Campus, we place great emphasis on the importance of an English-speaking environment. We implement different sets of English classes to help students with varying English proficiency levels to improve their language skills. Except for Chinese classes, all subjects are taught in English, with 60% of our teachers are expats.
03
Previous Outstanding Offers in the
fields of Humanities
We encourage students who are passionate about humanities to actively engage in their favourite subjects, becoming more well-rounded, insightful, and participatory individuals in the future.
