(Fight against New Crown Pneumonia) "Cloud Classroom" becomes a new trend in overseas Chinese education

  China News Agency, Lanzhou, May 16 (Reporter Ding Si Li Yalong) Overseas Chinese education under the epidemic ushered in many new challenges and opportunities. The "Internet +" education model resolves the crisis of "teaching" and "learning", accelerates the development of "online classrooms", and gives birth to "micro-degrees", online "root-seeking" summer camps, "Chinese cloud classrooms", and overseas "Fancy" methods such as dual-channel live broadcasts explore ways to diversify and upgrade the quality of Chinese education, hoping to "root and take root" locally.

  The "Chinese Cloud Classroom" co-organized by Northwest Normal University in the interior of China and the Chinese Teachers' Association of Thailand, thousands of miles apart, was recently launched. On the 16th, Li Le, a teacher of the School of International Cultural Exchange of Northwest Normal University, and his colleagues were preparing a lesson plan for a series of lectures on "Chinese Character Culture and Chinese Character Teaching".

  In 2012, the Chinese Education Base of Northwest Normal University, the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office of the State Council of China, was established in Lanzhou, dedicated to the research and talent cultivation of overseas Chinese education. The school sends international Chinese language teaching volunteers to Thailand every year to accept the cultural experience activities of the children of overseas Chinese from Thailand who come to China for a root-seeking journey.

  Last October, Li Le also gave a calligraphy class to Thai students who came to Lanzhou for a root-seeking trip. From the offline to the "cloud classroom", Li Le said in an interview with a reporter from China News Service, "In actual classrooms, children can feel what they see and hear through his eyes, hands and feet, and give feedback to teachers in time. Problem; online classroom is an emergency under the epidemic and will become a trend. How to effectively combine offline interaction with online new media communication is the direction of future Chinese education efforts. "

  Coincidentally, Huaqiao University of China has also joined the team to help the training of Chinese teachers in Thailand, and innovatively combined the Chinese online teaching platform with the social platform used by Thai native Chinese teachers to conduct a "live broadcast + recording" online teaching model.

  In order to allow overseas Chinese youths to continue to learn Chinese culture during the epidemic, Jiangsu Province officially opened the "Cloud Classroom" of Chinese culture to more than 30 Chinese schools overseas, teaching martial arts, paper-cutting, ancient poetry appreciation, calligraphy and other courses. The Chinese Overseas Chinese Federation launched the "Family Love China: Telling Stories for You" online summer camp activity, which made idioms, fables, human geography, and epidemic prevention knowledge into videos or animations and pushed them to overseas Chinese schools in the form of storytelling.

  "Online training courses at this time are particularly important and urgently needed for Chinese teachers around the world." The 85-year-old chairman of the Thai Chinese Teachers' Association Luo Zongzheng said through the Internet that the various offline training activities previously conducted by the Association are like teachers. For the "first classroom" of learning, we named this new online training model "second classroom". This model can accurately grasp the curriculum needs of teachers, quickly and efficiently promote training, save costs, reduce aggregation, include famous teachers and quality courses, real-time interaction, no borders restrictions, online permanent retention, unlimited broadcasts, etc., for the development of overseas Chinese education Inject power and vitality.

  The Internet has also accelerated cooperation between all walks of life at home and abroad, turning crises into opportunities. Various network teaching infrastructures and teaching platforms are rapidly blossoming in the "cloud." The informatization of Chinese teaching has become a major trend in the development of Chinese education in the world.

  "In the face of fast-growing online education, how to improve quality is the focus of the future thinking, and explore improvements in teaching methods, concepts, and technical support." Wu Heping, dean of the School of International Cultural Exchange of Northwest Normal University, said the school will innovate Develop a new model of "online classroom + offline local teacher assistance". While seeking the diversified development of Chinese education, we will introduce "micro-degree" and other teaching methods according to local conditions to promote Chinese education to a new stage of personalization and intelligence. The local Chinese school "falls to root". (Finish)
