大家好，我是Kelley Ridings, 上海市民办中芯学校资深校长。今天很荣幸在京领的全球院士论坛上为我们学校的创新、才能和发展做演讲。

Hello everyone. I am Kelley Ridings, International Superintendent at Shanghai SMIC Private School. It’s an honor to join you here today at the Global Academician Forum to speak about Innovation, Talent, and Development at our school.

在中芯学校，我们认识到，教育的根本目的是让我们的学生在21世纪成为积极、有爱心的全球公民。当学生完成初中学业时，我们希望他们对“我是谁”有一个很好的理解。当他们进入高中时，他们会问的最基本的问题是:“我将来会是谁?”

At Shanghai SMIC Private School, we recognize that the fundamental purpose of education is to prepare our students to be active, caring global citizens in the 21st century. As students leave our middle school, we want them to have a good understanding of “Who am I?” As they enter high school, the fundamental question they will ask is “Who will I be in my future?”

我们希望我们的K-12年级的课程能够从小学开始，一直到高中，用这个概念的精髓来激励我们的学生。我们的学生有机会在许多学术领域有远远超越课堂的优异表现—如科学、数学、技术领域，以及语言和历史等人文领域。我们高中的学生通过23门严谨的AP课程获得了卓越的大学预修课程经验。结果不言自明，整整71%的英文部高中学生参加了AP课程，每年参加450场AP考试。59%的考试成绩达到满分5分，95%的考试成绩达到3分合格分或更高。AP课程中有两门课程构成了一套完整的基石体系：AP研讨会和AP研究论文。通过这些课程，高中生学到了基本的研究方法。他们设计自己的研究，并在年终展示研究成果。学生们的创新研究简直令人难以置信地优秀。一名学生研究了食品快递包装垃圾的影响，以及它的快速增长如何影响上海的垃圾收集和我们的环境。一名十二年级学生研究了房地产开发对上海经济的影响。还有学生研究了顾客在使用出租车APP应用时的安全感，他用复杂的统计分析来支持他有趣的结论。

We want our K-12 curriculum to motivate our learners with the essence of this concept starting in elementary and continuing through high school. Our students have the opportunities to excel far beyond the classroom in so many academic areas – the sciences, math, technology, and the humanities such as languages and history. Our SMIC high school students gain exceptional Advanced Placement program experience through 23 rigorous AP courses taught directly in on campus classes by SMIC-International teachers. The results speak for themselves. Fully 71% of SMIC-International high school students take AP courses, taking 450 AP exams annually. 59% of these exams receive the maximum score of 5, while 95% of them receive passing scores of 3 or higher. The AP program culminates in the AP Capstone with two courses – AP Seminar and AP Research. Through these classes, high school students learn about original research methodologies. They design their own studies and present their findings at year’s end. SMIC students’ innovative research is simply incredible. One student studied the impact of food delivery packaging waste and how its rapid increase has affected Shanghai’s trash collection and our environment. One SMIC-I senior researched the economic impact of real estate development on the Shanghai economy. Another student researched the levels of safety that customers felt when using taxi APPs with his using complex statistical analyses to support his intriguing conclusions.

在中芯学生们通过我们的科学课程接受强化的训练，而我们严格的以学生为中心的课程强调技能应用，以解决现实世界的问题。K-12课程和学校设施支持着学生在科学领域的卓越表现。我们有6个新设计的中学科学实验室（生物、物理和化学各2个），学生使用最先进的设施来激发培养他们对科学的热情。这是贯穿全校的一个共识。小学生在我们一年一度的工程设计大会上大放异彩。我们每年中学的科学博览会继续展现了同学们对科学的热情，这是一个从初中到高中的全天的科学嘉年华。中学生们还参加了多个国家的国际科学竞赛。到了高中，学生们可以设计自己的科学实验，比如一个AP学生研究音乐对大脑功能的影响以及它如何影响情绪。

At SMIC-I students receive exceptional training through our science program which is supported through our rigorous student-centered curriculum that emphasizes skills applications to solve real world problems. Our K-12 aligned curriculum, and the school facilities support students’ excellence in the sciences. With our six newly redesigned middle high school science labs (2 each for biology, physics, and chemistry), students use cutting edge facilities as they exercise their passions in science. This is a commonly shared K-12 school-wide experience. Students in elementary shine through our annual Engineering Design Convention. The excitement about science continues with our annual MHS Science Fair which is an all day celebration of the sciences from middle to high school. MHS students compete in several national and international science competitions. By high school, students can design their own science experiments such as one AP student who researched the effects of music on brain function and how it impacts mood.

英文部所有学生都要学习计算机课程，从幼儿园开始，一直到高中。我们的学生通过学习每个年级的内容，结合国际技术标准掌握这门课程，尤其在拥有最先进设施的中学更是对学生对技术课程的掌握助力良多。如人工智能（AI）实验室、设计技术实验室、3个计算机实验室，以及一个带有广播功能的录播教室。高中学生有17门技术类课程，包括他们选择的视频制作、人工智能、广播新闻和AP计算机科学。学生们通过独立学习，将他们对高科技的热情提升到新的水平。有一位学生，也是我们的校友，在高中时就为他发明的设备申请了专利，该设备可以在远离传统电源的情况下为手机充电。另一个学生为我们的学生设计了一个应用程序，以出售他们在学校的旧课本。尽管他已经毕业了，但他把技术传给了其他学生，现在他们已经把这个应用程序发展到销售包括旧课本在内的其他与学校有关的学生物品。英文部的学生在中学时就设计了自己的电脑，这并不罕见。然后，这些中芯国际的毕业生通常会进入世界顶尖大学，比如加州大学伯克利分校学习计算机科学。

Technology is taught to all SMIC-I students starting with kindergarten computer classes and continuing through high school. Our students access a curriculum aligned through each grade level that combines the international technology standards that culminates in the MHS with state of the art facilities. The Artificial Intelligence (AI) lab, a Design Technology Lab, 3 computer labs, and a state-of-the-art media center with a broadcast room. High School students have 17 technology classes including their choices of Video Production, Artificial Intelligence, Broadcast Journalism, and AP Computer Science. Students take their passion for high tech to new levels by pursuing their studies independently. One student, who is an alumni, held a patent while still in high school for a device he invented that charges phones while away from a traditional power source. Another student designed an app for our students to sell their used text books at school. Even though he has graduated, he passed along the tech know-how to other students, and now they have evolved the app to include sales of other student-owned school-related items as well as books. It’s not unusual to find SMIC students who designed their own computers in middle school. And then routinely these SMIC graduates matriculate to study computer science at the world’s top universities such as University of California at Berkeley.

英文部学生从小学到高中都在学习团队合作和解决问题的方法。无论是参与课堂上的小组合作，成为9个中学运动队的一员，还是比赛团队的一员，如我们获得国际奖项的美国学术十项全能（USAD）、或世界学者杯（WSC）、或国家历史日团队。学生们通过每年的全校性活动创造和展示他们的作品，如中学生人文研讨会，中学外语电影节放映自己制作的电影，或上面提到的科学活动。我们的高中生有47个学生社团可以参加。许多与科学（如环境社团、国家科学荣誉学会）、数学（数学社团）、人文（广播新闻社团）相关，或与社区服务有关，如社区服务社团或肯尼亚饼干社团。两个全校性的慈善项目每年筹集超过60万人民币。我们的博爱义卖项目支持中国各地有需要的孩子。百万植树计划使中芯学生在过去几年里筹集到足够的资金，用于在内蒙古植树造林。所有社团都有一个共同的特点。它们都是完全由学生管理的。学生们创建了社团，虽然他们有一位教师参与监督，但学生们负责管理社团。这是一个现实生活中的实验室，在那里他们创造目标，设计项目，并创造出现实世界的东西，通常是非凡的。两名学生在创业社团的工作中表现出高度的活跃和创新精神，毕业时设计了自己的发明，包括广受欢迎的创新高概念夜灯Eggie。

SMIC-I students learn from elementary through high school about teamwork and problem solving. Whether in working on student groups in academic classes, being part of our 9 MHS sports teams, or being part of competitive teams such as our internationally award winning United States Academic Decathlon (USAD), or World Scholars Cup (WSC), or National History Day teams. Students create and present their work through annual school-wide events such as the MHS Humanities Symposium, MHS Foreign Language Film Festival where they screen their own student-produced movies, or the above-mentioned science events. Our high school students have 47 student clubs in which to participate. Many are related to science (such as the Environmental Club, National Science Honor Society), math (Math Club), humanities (Broadcast Journalism Club), or community service such as the Community Service Club, or Cookies for Kenya Club. For example two-whole school charitable projects raise over 600,000 RMB annually. Our Art for Charity Program supports kids in need throughout China. The Million Tree Planting Project has resulted in SMIC-I students raising enough money over the last several to plant 1000s of trees for reforestation in Inner Mongolia over the last several years. All clubs hold one unique feature in common. They are all fully student run. Students create the club, and while they have a staff sponsor, students are expected to run the club. This is meant to be a real-life laboratory where they create goals, design projects, and create real-world out that is oftentimes phenomenal. Two SMIC-I students who were highly active and innovative in their work in the Entrepreneurs Club, and upon their graduation designed their own inventions, including the popular Eggie – an innovative high concept night light.

我们的学生在学校里追求卓越。我们的毕业生进入世界上最好的大学，目前世界排名前10的大学中有5所学校有中芯的学生攻读本科和研究生学位。通过在中芯学校的学习，我们的学生毕业后成为全球公民，他们在追求卓越学习的过程中充满动力，同时保持身心健康。在上海市民办中芯学校学习中，创新和发展学生的天赋是在学习过程中培养出的关键衍生物。我们学校毕业的校友的成功经历背书了学校的愿景，这些愿景得以在学生们身上完美体现。这就是品格第一，追求卓越，胸怀世界，快乐成长。

Our students pursue excellence throughout their years in our school. Our graduates matriculate into the best universities in the world, with SMIC-I alumni currently attending 5 of the world’s top 10 universities in undergraduate and graduate degree studies. Through their work at SMIC, our students graduate with mastery as global citizens of character who are motivated in their pursuit of learning excellence, while being healthy in mind and body. Innovation and development of our students’ innate talents is a key byproduct of their learning path while at Shanghai SMIC Private School. Our school’s motto embodies the vision of what our successful graduates gain as alumni of the Shanghai SMIC Private School. That means Honor, Excellence, Community, and Joy.

能成为上海市民办中芯学校社区的一员是一种荣耀，我们致力于培养学生的创新才能，进而点燃并实现他们的梦想。

It’s an honor to be part of a community like what we have at Shanghai SMIC Private School that is so dedicated to developing innovative student talents as they aspire to reach their dreams.
