深圳香港培僑書院龍華信義學校教師專業發展日於2023年10月24日順利舉行。

The Staff professional development day of Pui Kiu Xinyi School was successfully held on 24th October 2023.  

一如往年，教師專業發展日的主要目標是為了提升課堂教學效能，以符合我們每年的關注重點。今年，我們關注重點是培育學生敢於施展抱負，追求更好表現，因此專業培訓的重點則在於加強教師對於以學生為中心的上課模式的認識和實踐。今年，我們的培訓目標更廣泛地涵蓋促進三個課程體系的教職員之間更好的共融和協作。

Like every year, the staff professional development day is held with the main objective to enhance classroom teaching effectiveness with regard to our yearly major concern. This year, we are working towards the goal of nurturing students to aspire to higher performance, so the focus of pedagogical training lies on preparing our teachers to adopt a student-centred learning approach. This year, our programmes are also held with a broader vision to foster better integration and collaboration between the staff from the three curricula.

教師專業發展日的開幕式由內地課程校長林海平和香港課程副校長張小妹主持。他們在開幕式上分享了共同的願景，希望通過採取有效的教學策略進一步提升學生成就，同時照顧教師的身心健康。林校長提到，不只培僑信義學校為了教師專業培訓而努力邁進，龍華區教育局和深圳有關學校也一直支持我校的教師培訓工作，致力於和本校合作，一同為增強教師隊伍的專業發展，提升師德素養而努力。張副校也強調了進一步優化教師教學效能的重要性，時刻確保教師能在課堂中更好地照顧學習差異。她還表示，未來的一學年將是教職工彼此互相學習，汲取成功經驗、與其它科目教師密切合作、以實現教學成果最大化的黃金時期。

The opening ceremony was hosted by the Principal of the Mainland Curriculum, Mr. LIN Haiping, and Deputy Principal of the Hong Kong Curriculum, Ms. CHEUNG Siumui Kathy. They both shared the vision of raising student achievements through implementing effective pedagogical strategies while taking care of teachers’ well-being. Principal Lin mentioned that not only the school, but also the district Education Bureau as well as the schools from Shenzhen network have all along been offering support to our school regarding the training of teachers to strengthen their professional growth, morality, and ethics. Ms. Cheung also emphasized the necessity to further empower teachers’ pedagogical capacity so they can better cater for the diverse needs of students in the classroom. She also said that the upcoming academic year is a golden opportunity for staff to learn from their successful practices and work in close collaboration with staff from other subjects in view to maximizing learning outcomes. 

教師專業發展日伊始，學校課程部開展了兩場互動的校本工作坊。主題分別為以學生為中心的教學法和跨學科規劃工作坊。

The day began with two interactive in-house workshops on student-centred learning (SCL) and cross-curricular planning led by the school’ curriculum leaders. 

教師的身心健康對學生在生活上和學習上取得的成就有密切關係。因此，為了加深教師對兒童心理的認識，學校邀請到著名心理學專家余德淳博士主持兩場講座。講座內容涵蓋兒童心理行動的各種因素，也幫助教師培養良好的情緒管理和積極心態面對生活和工作。

Two seminars by distinguished guest speaker, Dr. Charles YU, were also held to deepen the teachers’ understanding of children’s psychology and equip teachers with the strategies to manage emotions and develop a positive mental attitude towards life and work, which, in the long run, would help students to make a difference in their life and studies. 

講座結束後，大家期待已久的團建活動開展了。各科組教師分別參與了不同活動，例如「繪出我們的理想學校」，「逐夢培僑」的冰壺挑戰以及「同心同夢」的書法比賽。教師們在過程中需共同策劃、練習、控制好時間，一同協作完成任務。團建活動的開展極大地促進了教師們之間的專業交流和彼此信任。

Following the seminars were the long-awaited parallel sessions of team building activities, such as visualizing our ideal school, curling challenges and calligraphy workshops, for staff from various departments. Staff had to plan together, practice, control the time, and agree on the skills needed to finish the task, which, in the process, promoted professional exchanges.
