2024 Valencia, Spain Program
SHBS is thrilled to offer an opportunity in conjunction with the Valencia, Spain-based community organization La Meridional. This program is designed to immerse students in the unique cultures and habitats of the coastal Mediterranean region of Spain, to broaden their personal perspectives about leadership and social action, and to develop connections across countries.
The program is guided by four main principles: Community Engagement: Using “the accompaniment model,” through the stories and testimonials created through interactions with local active citizens, participants gain a better understanding of intra-community relations with the environment and their impact on a global scale.
Global Competence: La Meridional's Youth Leadership Curriculum is a compilation of “gametivities” and reflections based on The Global Competence: knowledge, skills, attitudes and values applied to intercultural situations.
Connection to Land: The program narrative is born from the land our feet are walking on. The communities we partner with, the cultural visits, the activities... all is tied to the region we are exploring and its context.
Social Action: Back home, I understand my purpose and concrete actions I can take, as a socially responsible person. I will be better able to share my perspective, make changes, and inspire my community with my words and actions.
At the same time, such topics inevitably lead to students asking questions. Students also presented many common or abstract love processes that they and others have experienced, and Dr. Cailian also answered and analyzed the students' questions.
In addition to time in Valencia, the program also includes homestays in the small (c. 1,500 residents) village of Siete Aguas, about 35km from the city center. SHBS students will get to experience local life, connect with their Spanish peers, and have experiences with local education. The host families in this small village are part of a tight-knit community and are well-practiced in hosting small groups of international students, including a number of USbased exchange programs.

每⽇⾏程 – 可能会变动
迥然不同的国家和地区⽂化,在时间和⽇程安排上彰显得淋漓尽致。我们竭尽全⼒详尽计划和安排,但仍有可能⾯临不可抗因素,须做出必要的⾏程临时变更。我们的社区参与体验内容需要根据主办社区的偏好和资源等因素加以确定,这意味着活动安排有临时变更的可能性。学⽣们常常说,灵活应变能⼒和接受不同且具有挑战性的⽂化实践能⼒是他们在世界领导⼒学校项⽬中最有价值的收获之⼀。希望你能带着开放和灵活的⼼态参与其中。记住:适应变化是未来世界领袖的重要⼯作技能!

背景
全球化和科技发展使得世界各地的学校重新设计它们的学习环境。互联⽹的普及让世界各地的学⽣获得⼤量的信息。但是,全球变化的速度和复杂性使得⼈们很难分清哪些信息是我们的学⽣在未来取得成功时所真正需要的。
由于这些新的变化,学校正在从内容学习⾛向技能学习。越来越多的学校都在思考这个关键的问题:除了核⼼学术课程,什么样的技能和才⼲是学⽣⾯向未来时真正需要的?
世界领导学校认为以下能⼒很关键。这些能⼒是21世纪技能(P21)的合伙⼈,企业,教育领导者和政策制定者联盟提炼出来的。
• 4C的能⼒——批判性思维,沟通,协作和创造⼒
• ⽣活和职业技能——领导⼒,坚毅,适应性
• 信息,媒体和科技技能技能的转变需要新的学习环境。
过去,学⽣⼀排排坐在教室,⽼师在讲台前授课。学习是教师为中⼼,侧重于内容,并通过标准化的考试评估。在未来,学习会以学⽣为中⼼,侧重于技能和执⾏能⼒,以及应对真实世界挑战的能⼒。
我们的协作领导⼒项⽬是具有挑战性的学习体验,涉及下列学习⽬标:
• 调查世界:学⽣形成并加⼊“爱⼼团队”专注于全球性问题,如⽓候变化,贫困和教育。来⾃不同⽂化的两所学校的学⽣和教师⼀起,为⼀所学校所在社区的重点项⽬⼯作,参加协作学习会议。
• 认识观点:我们的领导⽅式强调⾃我意识和对当地领导的研究。我们相信,当地社区的领导⼈有⾃⼰独特的领导⼒思考和案例。同学们需要学习和了解当地领导⼈的想法和观点。并分享⾃⼰的领导⼒故事和想法。
• 采取⾏动:学⽣将合作开展社区项⽬,帮助当地学校建设基础设施,如教室,⾷堂或操场。学⽣将学习如何采取有意义的和负责任的⾏动响应当地需求或问题。世界领导⼒学校的校友们在未来的⼯作中也会继续传承这份“⾏动呼吁”。
• 沟通思想:最后,学⽣们将分享⾃⼰在参与项⽬时的“领导⼒故事。”这是⼀个让学⽣反思⾃⼰是谁,他们的收获以及想要创造怎样的未来。
