Theme: 以人为本,破界育新,融合创生 Human-Centered Innovation

  1. 如何利用技术助力激发学生内在学习动力,主导性和创造力?

对话世界:跨文化语境下的中文新生态

四十余年前,潮起蛇口,掀起了中国改革开放的浪潮,从此,“实干兴邦”的理念与“汇通天下”的精神在此交融。今日的蛇口,不仅是山海相拥的宜居之地,更是创新思维与国际社群交流的前沿窗口。

在此举办以“以人为本,破界育新,融合创生”为主题的ACAMIS中文大会,意蕴深远。我们期待,在这片以“变革”为基因的土地上,共同审视中文教育的本质:教育不只是知识的单向填充,更是文化与思维在碰撞中的新生。我们诚邀您共同践行:以破界的勇气重构课堂,以融合的智慧创生课程,回归“以人为本”的教育本质,培育出兼具文化根基与全球视野的未来开创者。

Over four decades ago, the pioneering wave of China’s reform and opening up rose in Shekou, where the spirit of “achieving prosperity through diligence” converged with the vision of “connecting the world.” Today, Shekou is not only a livable coastal community embraced by mountains and sea but also a forward-looking hub for innovative thinking and international exchange.

Under the theme “Human-Centered, Boundary-Breaking, and Creatively Integrated”, the ACAMIS Chinese Conference carries special significance. We hope to re-examine the essence of Chinese education together: Education is not merely the one-way transfer of knowledge, but also the renewal of culture and thinking through dynamic engagement.

We sincerely invite you to join us in this shared endeavor: to redesign classrooms with the courage to transcend boundaries, to create curriculum through the wisdom of integration, and to return to the human-centered core of education—nurturing future innovators who are rooted in culture and equipped with a global vision.

Registration deadline is Friday, June 12
