Today, Hangzhou Youth Activity Center is as busy as ever. Many families send their children to the Children's Palace to study various courses to increase their knowledge and improve their skills. In the robot classroom, we were surprised to find that there was an extra computer on the teacher's podium. On the computer screen, a group of real-time images of children from far away appeared. It turns out that children from all families have attended the Children's Palace class through the Internet. The teacher's voice and smile, the courseware that the teacher explained about the intelligent robot, the magnified action when the teacher made the robot on the spot, and every detail of the interaction between teachers and students in the online classroom are transmitted to the family in real time through the network. Between teachers and students, you ask and I answer, with pronunciation and writing, with questions and hands raised. The network classroom has become a real classroom.
Since July 22, the first online children's palace experiment in China has been quietly carried out in our province. The course 15, represented by mathematical thinking, literary writing, natural English, Cambridge English, junior high school English, science, astronomy, intelligent robots, artistic creativity, creative artistic design, animation, China chess, pottery making and pastry making, passed the "Wan Peng" on Saturday and Sunday for three consecutive weeks. As the first registered audience, hundreds of children experienced the charm of online real-time teaching at home.
It is reported that this online teaching experiment was initiated by the Provincial Youth Palace Association and supported by china national youth palace association, Zhejiang Provincial Committee of the Communist Youth League, Zhejiang University Network Company and Zhejiang Wan Peng Company. It aims to solve the bottleneck of "too much porridge" in the resources of high-quality children's palace, and use advanced information technology to let children move the children's palace home and realize the dream of a children's palace in the world.
Professor Yu Xiaohong, an expert in educational informatization, pointed out: firstly, the online Children's Palace experiment is a meaningful attempt, which probably changed people's vague understanding of online teaching; Second, the main feature of the online Children's Palace is the interaction between teachers and students based on the Internet, not just the live broadcast of the teaching site; Third, the difference between this form and the traditional form is essentially reflected in whether family members participate in children's learning process, so the effectiveness of teaching is obviously improved in some aspects, and secondly it is convenient for parents; Fourthly, it can be considered that the online Children's Palace is a positive way to amplify the social value of the Children's Palace, especially to guide young people to surf the Internet healthily, which should be supported and responded by the society more widely.
In this pilot course, in addition to Hangzhou Youth Activity Center, Ningbo Youth Palace, Jinhua Youth Palace, Shaoxing Youth Activity Center and Xiaoshan Youth Palace also performed on the same stage. I learned from the Hangzhou Youth Activity Center that since the online booking on July 14, it has aroused widespread concern in the society. The number of applicants far exceeded expectations. The first 400 places were full in two days, and the actual number of applicants reached 803, including some from Shanghai and Guangzhou outside Zhejiang, and Vancouver from Canada. Parents who are a little late regret not being able to catch the first through train for their children.
What's the difference between the online Children's Palace and the real Children's Palace? Can the online Children's Palace achieve satisfactory teaching results? What do parents and children think of this new thing? With all kinds of questions, we went to Hangzhou Youth Activity Center and children's families for the first time to capture the social latitude and longitude of the online Children's Palace.
Feedback from Children's Palace: The actual effect far exceeds expectations.
July 22nd and 23rd are the initial stages of the trial operation of the online Children's Palace. In these two days, Hangzhou Youth Palace Activity Center opened four courses: artistic creativity, mathematical thinking, pottery making and natural English. According to the introduction of the Children's Palace, the children in the four courses are active in learning and speaking. The teacher taught brilliantly and effectively; Parents fully recognize and are completely satisfied. All three groups have shown great enthusiasm for the online Children's Palace.
In order to get more specific feedback information, the Children's Palace organized a "feedback questionnaire for the summer pilot course of distance education in Zhejiang Youth Palace". The questions are carefully designed and informative. The online survey and voting results show that 95.7% of the families have recognized and affirmed the online Children's Palace and are very satisfied with the teaching effect in the new environment. The result of this survey far exceeds the original expectation that about half of the best scheme may be recognized! Some parents even think that fees can be charged, which can be set at about 1.5 times of the ordinary children's palace course fee standard.
It is really inspiring that four courses are the first to write a successful chapter.
Parents' voice: the whole family is happy when one person logs in.
According to the registration information of the Children's Palace, we visited the children's families, and parents' enthusiasm and affirmation for the online Children's Palace made the Children's Palace see a feasible application prospect.
At the home of Mr. Fu, a citizen, Mr. Fu is accompanying his 6-year-old son to learn natural English. His mother and grandfather are around him, and the whole family is happy. When I mentioned the course of natural English, Mr. Fu felt infinite emotion. At the beginning, in order to register my son, because the course was very popular and the registration was hot, the Children's Palace adopted the method of computer lottery admission. As a result, although Mr. Fu's family spent a lot of time and energy, they finally failed to let their children enter the Children's Palace. This time, I heard that I could attend classes at home. I was really surprised and happy. I quickly signed up my children. We can see that the popularity of the popular natural English on the Internet has not lost, and 46 students have entered the classroom. Many students who registered late missed it again.
In this English class, we found that the voice of the online teaching platform is vivid, the video is smooth, the teacher's courseware is rich and colorful, and the children focus on interaction. It is gratifying that an English class can fully interact between teachers and students at both ends of the network, and it is so full of vitality.
Mr. Fu said: "In the past, sending children to the Children's Palace would tire the whole family to death. Finally, it takes time to send the children to the Children's Palace and wait outside. It's easy to attend classes at home now, and even the cost of taking a taxi back and forth is free. And after listening to the whole process, I found that the class effect is still very good, and I won't regret that the computer didn't shake it. "
Mr. Fu Lao (the grandfather of the child) was also very excited after experiencing the online Children's Palace class. He said: "Such a small child sometimes has poor self-control, and it is easy to distract attention in class." I used to look around in the narrow gap outside the classroom of the Children's Palace, wondering if my grandson had listened to the class well. It's great now, my grandson is attending classes at home. Once he is naughty, I can control him to go to class in time. "
In the course of class, the child's mother has been sitting in front of the computer and listening attentively. She often finds that the child's English pronunciation is not very standard, so she reminds the child how to imitate the teacher's correct pronunciation, which gives the child a chance to correct his mistakes in time. The mother said happily to us after class: "Our parents are also happy to stay at home with their children, because we can really participate in the fun of children's learning, which is also the success of parenting education."
Mr. Fu's family is just an ordinary case among thousands of China families in Qian Qian, Qian Qian, but from the happiness of Mr. Fu's family, we deeply feel the family's ardent feelings and strong demand for children's education. The establishment of the online Children's Palace has undoubtedly opened up a brand-new way and way for parents and children.
