The lecture group of the China Overseas Exchange Association was warmly welcomed by Chinese teachers in Arizona (photo) From 10 am to 5 pm on August 21, the lecture group sent by the China Overseas Exchange Association came to Arizona for the first time to conduct training for local Chinese teachers in the Mohave Room 23 classroom of the MU Building of the State University. More than 70 teachers participated in the training that day. They were Chinese teachers from five Chinese schools and Chinese teachers from American public schools. According to Shuai Zhiruo of the National Association of Chinese Schools, as soon as the announcement of the event was sent out, the places for the training class were quickly filled up, and Chinese schools in Alberta are very supportive. Led by Mr. Wang Kuangting from the Culture Department of the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office of the State Council, Professor Wang Xiaolu from the School of Literature and Journalism and the School of Foreign Languages ​​of Sichuan University, Mr. Li Ming, a senior teacher from the middle school, and Du Zhaohui, a senior teacher from the Primary School Affiliated to Central China Normal University, brought lively and interesting training courses to the Chinese teachers. Professor Wang Xiaolu Professor Wang Xiaolu gave two lectures on Chinese culture to Chinese teachers. The first is Chinese culture in a broad sense, and the second is the specific embodiment of specific fashion concepts in life in different eras. Professor Wang’s humorous introduction style made the audience burst into laughter from time to time. Especially the era that the teachers who participated in the training have personally experienced, let people truly feel the changes in "fashion". For example, the typical fashion of the Cultural Revolution was reflected in the photo studio. Every young couple who was about to get married would always wear green military uniforms in the most important wedding photos, and jointly assume the standard revolutionary posture of heroic forward movement. In the early days of reform and opening up, the most popular fashion was wearing bell-bottom pants that could be used for cleaning at all times. Professor Wang said that today's fashion is a reflection of personality. Every clothing-buying boss likes to whisper in the ear of his customers that this is the same style of clothing, and it will never be the same! But after the customer bought it home, two days later he found that everyone on the street was wearing the same clothes! Professor Wang used vivid pictures to introduce the specific embodiment of the concept of "fashion", emphasizing that culture is multi-layered and the application in daily life is the most important embodiment. It is a potential view of consumption that can influence people's view of the world and is also an explanation for every era. Teacher Du Chaohui Du Chaohui's lecture Du Chaohui, a senior teacher at the Primary School Affiliated to Central China Normal University, introduced various literacy methods to Chinese teachers in a very specific way, such as dispersed literacy, phonetic literacy, character family literacy, listening and reading literacy, game literacy, etc. In the process of describing these methods, she also demonstrated how a good Chinese class is formed, including introducing topics, explaining, analyzing, asking questions, motivating students, consolidating knowledge points, and achieving teaching goals. She once used the method of "big transformation" to guide students by playing different roles and conduct reading training. Cultivate students' potential reading awareness through the habit of telling stories and reading storybooks at the same time. She also provided a website for Chinese teachers to download a large number of teaching aids. At the same time, based on her own teaching experience, she answered the practical problems encountered by the teachers in the teaching. The teachers all expressed that they had benefited a lot. Teacher Li Ming's handicraft demonstration. Listening attentively to the handicraft class. The most relaxing part of the entire training was the handicraft training given by teacher Li Ming, a senior art teacher in the middle school. He taught the teachers how to make kites, Chinese knots, and Chinese paper-cutting. In a very simple way, teachers are taught to use these traditional handicrafts to display Chinese culture. The teachers who listened to the class all day became particularly active when making kites and Chinese knots. Some even walked up to the podium to watch Teacher Li demonstrate and experiment repeatedly. For teachers who are ingenious and handy, they can quickly complete the work step by step, and they can show off their handiwork with great benefit. For teachers who are not good at doing things, but they encounter big troubles, they take their "special" works and ask for help everywhere... The joyful and interesting atmosphere continues until the end of the training. Wang Kuangting issued certificates to the trained teachers. All teachers who participated in the training received training certificates issued by the China Overseas Exchange Association. The Chinese teachers took a group photo with the lecture group and left messages, thanking them for the wonderful training courses. They also thanked the Confucius Institute at Arizona State University for their generous sponsorship and support. They hope that such trainings can be held frequently. Group photo of training staff
