【活動報導】

    2022年11月4日綠衣使節與密涅瓦大學的實體交流在熱切期待下展開。密涅瓦大學以美國舊金山為基地,但沒有傳統概念上的「實體校園」,所有課程都在學校開發的線上學習平台上進行而不是在教室,此外,密涅瓦大學的錄取率低於2%,入學方式也非常特殊:以一套獨特的測驗方式來篩選學生,而非採計任何標準化測驗檢定成績。這所被評比為全球最創新的學校希望能培養出一批具備思考能力與解決社會問題能力的優秀學生,進而對世界產生正面影響。

    密涅瓦大學的學生一踏進交流場地,綠衣使節便熱情歡迎他們的到來並引導他們入座。北一女中陳智源校長和謝智傑老師的開場揭開交流活動的序幕,其中陳智源校長表示,密涅瓦大學前衛的教學模式極有可能是未來新世代的人才培育途徑,希望藉由他們學習經驗的分享對綠衣使節學生有所啟發,謝智傑老師則向密涅瓦大學學生簡要說明綠衣使節主要的負責工作以及使節發展願景,期許十一屆綠衣使節能以充滿愛的態度讓校內學生與校外貴賓快速了解北一女中的歷史與校園特色,提升北一女中的能見度。

    接著是來自南韓與埃及的兩位學生代表以簡報方式介紹密涅瓦大學的課程特色與教學核心理念。密涅瓦的大一學生必須經歷一系列批判性思考的能力培訓,這使學生具備面對未來社會不斷變遷的適應能力。此外,學生將會在四年內移動到世界七個不同的城市進行沉浸式學習。兩位學生代表在個人經驗分享時提到,每到一個城市他們就會盡量多接觸當地居民、體驗當地文化,雖然過程中會遭遇許多困難,例如語言隔閡、生活習慣或作息時間與當地人不同等等,但這些具挑戰性的異地學習經驗讓他們更能以開闊的心胸接納並尊重多元文化,培養現代公民的必備素養—國際觀。

    聆聽完密涅瓦大學學生精采的介紹之後,綠衣使節為密涅瓦學生導覽校史室。在導覽過程中,密涅瓦學生對眼前歷史悠久的文物和照片非常感興趣,不斷拿起手機拍下一張張珍貴的照片留做紀念,綠衣使節則親切地回答密涅瓦學生的提問。校史室導覽結束後,來到本次交流的重頭戲—分組討論時間,與會的20位綠衣使節與7位密涅瓦大學學生相談甚歡,討論主題從彼此國家的美食、校園文化、觀光勝地到疫情的衝擊與線上學習的經驗,輕鬆活潑的氣氛搭配使節準備的輕食與飲料,讓這段熱烈討論的時間成為雙方學生都印象深刻的美好回憶。

    在交流的尾聲,綠衣使節與密涅瓦大學學生拍攝團體合照、交換彼此的聯絡方式,也依依不捨地向彼此道別。雙方參與本次交流的學生紛紛表示這次活動讓他們收穫滿滿,希望兩校未來能有更多實體交流的機會。

【Topic: 2022 Exchange with Minerva University】

【Date: Nov 4th, 2022 16:30-18:30】
【Location: Classroom105, Zhongzheng Building, Taipei First Girls High School】

 

【News Report】

        Minerva University, ranked as the most innovative university in the world by World’s Universities with Real Impact (WURI), is an online institution with no physical campus.  In other words, with the help of an Internet connection, every corner of the world can become their classroom. Students from Minerva University travel to seven different cities throughout their college years.  This year, they are visiting Taipei from September to December, and we had the privilege of spending some time with them today.

        Due to the impact of the pandemic, student ambassadors genuinely cherished this precious opportunity to communicate and interact with foreign visitors face to face. When the guests arrived and the doors finally opened, an exhilarating atmosphere filled the whole room. The students on both sides greeted each other enthusiastically. Principal Chen Chih-Yuan and Teacher Bryant gave an opening speech and expressed their gratitude for the TFG students’ chance to hear about new learning strategies and to broaden their perspectives. Then, Minerva University students briefed us about their school. They gave an introduction to their school, courses, activities, and application procedures. In addition, they shared their stories while traveling to different countries. Their school motto school is “Nurturing Critical Wisdom for the Sake of the World,” and they emphasized their fundamental value of “challenging yourself.”

 

 

        After Minerva University students’ briefing, the student ambassadors gave them a guided tour of our school history room. Student ambassadors tried their best to share all the interesting historical details and facts in English, hoping to let our guests learn more about our school. After the guided tour, we sat down and talked about our school life, cultural differences, and learning.  All the student ambassadors learned a lot from their conversations and had a memorable afternoon.

 

 
        At the end of our exchange, we took photos together and traded our social media accounts to keep in touch. Through this opportunity, student ambassadors gained more experience by meeting people from other nations and learning from one another. It is with experiences like this that they will become more confident about the missions they’ll face in the future. Student ambassadors will keep learning and moving forward to ensure they bring their future visitors the best experience possible.
