常见科目现新意
在这次作品展中,不少是取自于同学们中文、英文等常见科目的日常作业,但从这些作业中我们可以不难看出IB课堂鼓励自主探究和辩证思考,注重融入素质教育和全人教育。
以中文组为例,除了有文本分析、文学创作,我们还可以看到同学们在中文课上会用利用绘画形式梳理名人生平,会基于小说内容进行书本封面设计,会使用海报剖析戏剧作者……又以英文组为例,除了基本写作,同学们还需要在课堂上撰写演讲稿、制作介绍册子等。
△Jason Zuo制作海报分析戏剧《雷雨》作者曹禺
△Mily Li 散文作品《骨灰》
△Natalia Kang和Simon Deng梳理苏轼生平
△Jay Liang设计的册子
同样是中文课和英文课,同学们能在其中得到的,除了文学知识,文学作品蕴含观点和文化,还有背后的逻辑思维能力、反思能力、演说能力、团队协作能力等许多文字以外的东西。
学术以外创新篇
IB课程提倡全人教育,注重均衡发展,除了学术课程,艺术在IBDP课程体系中同样占据重要地位。在本次作品展中,我们可以看到IB学子如何将艺术作为一种探究途径,以日常生活常见现象和话题为切入点,通过艺术认识自我、探索世界。
Sara Gui同学通过艺术进行自我剖析,把真实的自我以Mix-Media Painting的形式表达出来。
Susan Liu 同学以《爱丽丝梦游仙境》为灵感来源,创作服装设计作品。
IB艺术并不是单纯的技能教育,更是探究教育,希望培养同学们的可迁移学习能力。在课堂上,IB艺术老师会让同学们对新接触的知识进行思考内化,培养同学们的思辨能力和探究能力,帮助其更好学习及理解其他学科,解决实际问题。
多种角度促新思
从IB学生的作业中,我们可以看出IB学子关注度的多样化,以及多角度思考问题。他们不止关注当下,更会联系过去,展望未来;另一方面,他们不止着眼自身,更会关爱社区,关注社会问题。

△Rachel Li 同学着眼于抖音上物化女性的现象,

△Julia Peng抨击艺术家进行创作时浪费事物的现象。
这次选择课堂作业进行展示,体现出IB十分注重学习过程。在许多课程体系中,对于学生的评价都是来源于屈指可数的几次考试结果。而在IB课程评估中,每门学科成绩由内部评估和外部评估组成。注重过程的考评体系可以避免“一考定终生”,有利于对学生进行更全面、客观的评价。

New Ideas on Common Subjects
In this exhibition, many are just taken from the students’ daily assignments in Chinese, English and other common subjects. From these assignments, we could easily see that the IB class encourages independent inquiry and dialectical thinking and pays attention to integrating quality education and holistic education.
Taking the Chinese subject as an example, in addition to text analysis and literary creation, we also see that students in Chinese class use drawing to sort out the lives of famous people in history, design book covers based on the content of novels, and make posters to analyse drama authors and so on. Taking the English subject as another example, in addition to basic writing, students also write speeches in class, make brochures, etc.
△Jason Zuo made a poster to analyse Cao Yu,
the drama author of "Thunderstorm"
△Essay "Burned Ashes" by Mily Li
△Natalie Kang and Simon Deng sort out

Innovations Beyond the Academic
The IB curriculum advocates holistic education and focuses on students’ balanced development. In addition to the academic courses, the IB arts also play an important role in the IBDP curriculum. In this exhibition, we see how IB students inquire into common phenomena and daily topics through art to understand themselves and explore the world.
Sara Gui conducts self-analysis through art and expresses her true self in the form of Mix-Media Painting.
Susan Liuused "Alice in Wonderland" as a source of inspiration to create costume design.
Besides teaching skills, IB arts provide inquiry-based education, to develop students’ transferable learning ability. In the class, the IB art teachers have the students think and internalize the new knowledge they learn, cultivate their abilities of critical thinking and inquiry, help them better learn and understand other subjects, and solve practical problems.
Promoting New Thinking
from Multiple Dimensions
From the IB exhibition, we see that IB students are good at following diverse issues and thinking about them from multiple perspectives. They not only pay attention to the present, but also make connection with the past and look into the future; they not only focus on themselves, but also care about the community and social issues.

△Julia Peng criticizes artists
for their waste during artistic creation
Choosing students assignments for this exhibition also reflects the emphasis that IB attaches to the learning process of students. In many other curriculum systems, the evaluation of students only comes from the results of a handful of exams. Whereas, in IB assessment, each subject grade comprises internal assessment and external assessment. This assessment system that focuses on the learning process avoids the situation where students are graded only by few exam results and allows a more comprehensive and objective evaluation of students.
