#師長群口碑好評的閱讀寫作課#報名堪比中樂透、搶演唱會門票這是一堂很不一樣的閱讀寫作課：☆有書寫困難的孩子，自動養成寫詩宣洩情緒的習慣。☆原本態度挑釁帶刺的孩子，願意尊重他人、分享自己的內心。☆面對看不懂的英文詩，孩子們也勇敢發揮創意「超譯」。☆中途學校的學生、發展障礙的孩子，都能全心投入寫詩。 韓麗蓮長年在課堂上帶孩子們讀詩、寫詩，見過無數原本不被大人看好的孩子，寫出令人讚嘆的作品。她發現許多孩子之所以不喜歡寫作，是以為不能寫出真心話，但又不擅於說假話，因此不敢動筆。又或者在標榜「標準答案」、「高分技巧」教學的影響下，日漸失去原生的想像力和創意。 要讓孩子跳脫這樣的心魔很簡單，當大人願意放下對於寫作的既定印象，轉而用可以幫孩子自由想像、抒發的詩去引導，鼓勵他們放手去寫，孩子自然能在過程中感受到療癒和喜悅，想要一寫再寫。 本書共有十二堂課，提供趣味的教學主題，還有引導Tips，讓孩子和大人都能在詩的世界裡玩得開心：● 以手語比出一段歌詞，讓孩子寫出自己的詮釋。● 發揮聯想力，將國字擬人化或拆解部首來寫詩。● 搭配塔羅牌上的圖像，透過觀察成為「解牌大師」。● 收集不同顏色當素材，相似的顏色也能激發不同的作品。 在AI時代，我們更需要讓孩子的想像力、表達力與創意力成長茁壯，這三者不只是科技無法取代的能力，更是孩子翱翔的翅膀，讓他們盡情飛到更高、更遠的地方。

This book examines the British cultural engagement with Hong Kong in the second half of the twentieth century. It shows how the territory fit unusually within Britain’s decolonisation narratives and served as an occasional foil for examining Britain’s own culture during a period of perceived stagnation and decline. Drawing on a wide range of archival and published primary sources, Hong Kong and British Culture, 1945–97 investigates such themes as Hong Kong as a site of unrestrained capitalism, modernisation, and good government, as well as an arena of male social and sexual opportunity. It also examines the ways in which Hong Kong Chinese embraced British culture, and the competing predictions that British observers made concerning the colony’s return to Chinese sovereignty. An epilogue considers the enduring legacy of British colonialism.

科技對華文教學的衝擊與挑戰專輯前言符傳豐、張麗妹自二○二二年十一月三十日ChatGPT的問世，人工智能（Artificial Intelligence, AI）技術的發展進入了一個嶄新的階段。人工智能技術的迅猛發展正以前所未有的方式改變著我們的生活和學習方式。在華文作為第二語言的教與學中，人工智能技術帶來的轉變主要體現在以下幾個方面：首先，學生知識的來源越來越多元，教師不再是唯一的權威，傳統的課堂環境也不再是唯一的選擇。人工智能技術使學習者人機互動成為常態，傳統的傳道授業的模式受到挑戰。其次，人工智能提供了個性化的學習體驗。在傳統的課堂上，老師往往難以兼顧每個學生的學習進度和需求。人工智能系統通過對大數據的分析，能夠找到學習者的「最近發展區」（Vygotsky, 1967），並針對性地提供練習和輔導，達到最優的學習效果。再次，教師可以利用人工智能技術帶來的豐富的教學資源和多樣的學習渠道，鼓勵學生帶著問題主動學習，實現翻轉課堂（Flipped Classroom）「先學後教」的效果，這不僅提高了學生的學習效率，也讓他們成為自己學習的主人，找到學習的內驅力。這對於缺乏學習動機的以華文作為二語的學生尤為重要。此外，教師可以借助人工智能技術及時獲取學生學習成果信息，不斷調整和優化教學流程和內容，根據學習者實時學習情況調整教學方式，為學生提供及時反饋，隨時解決學生提出的問題，實時答疑解惑，幫助學生及時改正錯誤。本刊共輯六篇文章，六位老師從不同視角探討了面對科技對華文教學帶來的衝擊和挑戰，教師如何教，學生如何學。蘇啟禎老師從人類科技發明的作用談起，指出華文教師應該善用電子科技，充分發揮新科技的優點，提高華文教學的效果；周恩國老師探討了如何設計人工智能教學助手，幫助華文教師提升華文教學設計；焦福珍老師結合新加坡學生學習平臺有關個性化學習的新功能，探討了實施個性化學習的過程中人工智能賦能的路徑和策略；李冬梅老師從生成式人工智能的能供性出發，探討了生成式人工智能背景下促進學習評價的教學模式，以期對教師的教和學生的學提供新的探索方向；王學萍老師聚焦目前新加坡中學華文教師的教學實踐，探討了如何安全、有效地與人工智能技術協同合作，打造更加智能化、個性化的以華文作為二語的教學環境；韓軼婷老師探討面對新科技浪潮的衝擊，AI 如何重塑華文教學，嘗試引領讀者探尋新科技時代華文教學的未來方向。本專輯
