What is Student-Led Conference?

什么是學生主導型家長會？

Student-led conferences play a vital role in the IB-PYP learning journey as they empower students to take ownership of their learning process, fostering responsibility and enhancing their management and communication skills. During these conferences, students act as mini-teachers, guiding parents through their academic achievements across various subjects. Additionally, parents have the opportunity to review their child's growth portfolio, gaining valuable insights into their semester-long development and progress.                                                         

學生主導型家長會是IB-PYP學習旅程中必不可少的一部分，它使學生能夠更好地掌握自己的學習進程，為自己的學習負責，同時也有助于提高學生的組織能力、交流能力。學生們將主導這場會議，變成一位小老師，向家長展示自己各學科的學習成果。家長們還觀看了孩子的成長檔案，了解孩子一學期以來的成長與進步。

Cultivating a Sense of Ownership

培養主人翁意識

One of the most powerful aspects of student-led conferences is how they empower students to become active participants in their own learning journeys. By leading the discussions and reflecting on their achievements and areas for growth, students gain a deeper understanding of their strengths and what they need to improve. This sense of ownership isn't just about self-awareness; it ignites a passion for learning and motivates students to set personal goals for both academic and personal development.

學生主導家長會的最大優勢在于學生能夠清晰地掌握自己的學習進程。當學生明確了解哪些知識已經熟練掌握了，哪些還需要精進時，他們將對自己的能力和責任有明確的認知。這種主人翁意識，對今后承擔更大的責任、達成學術和個人成長目標奠定了良好的基礎。

Enhancing Communication Skills

提高溝通技巧

Student-led conferences offer an invaluable platform for students to sharpen their communication skills. By taking center stage and presenting their academic journeys – achievements and challenges alike – students gain more than just confidence. They actively develop essential skills like clear articulation, organization of thoughts, and confident self-expression. These skills aren't just for academic success; they're the building blocks for effective communication in all aspects of life, both personally and professionally.

學生主導家長會能極大地提高學生的溝通能力。向家長和教師展示他們的所知所學，不僅可以建立自信，還可以鍛煉他們的表達能力和組織能力。這些溝通技巧不僅對學業成功有很大的助力，而且對未來個人及職業發展也至關重要。

Promoting Reflection and Goal Setting

促進設定可行性目標

Engaging in student-led conferences is a powerful tool for fostering self-reflection and growth. By leading discussions about their academic achievements and areas for improvement, students gain valuable insights into their strengths and weaknesses. This self-discovery empowers them to set realistic and achievable goals, a crucial step in developing a growth mindset. With a growth mindset, students learn to view challenges as opportunities to learn and persevere, building resilience that will benefit them throughout their academic journeys and beyond.

學生通過準備和完成學生主導家長會，學會了如何發現自己的優勢和不足，從而能夠設定可實現的目標。從小學會如何設定目標，對培養學生如何積極面對挑戰有很大的幫助。

Building Stronger Parent-Teacher-Student Partnerships

建立更加牢固的家校關系

Parents can have a clear understanding of what their children are learning at school, identify how they can provide assistance in the future, and find ways to collaborate with schools. This collaboration strengthens the partnership between parents, teachers, and students, as well as enhances recognition and trust in the school, thereby creating an environment focused on supporting students' overall development.

家長可以直觀地了解孩子在學校的學習情況，明確日后可提供怎樣的幫助，找到家校配合的方法。這種合作加強了家長-教師-學生之間的伙伴關系，以及對學校的認可和信任，從而創造一個專注于支持學生全面發展的環境。

Student-led conferences provide a relaxed and enjoyable platform for communication between students, parents, and teachers. They foster a deeper understanding between home and school, promoting student growth together. By cultivating a sense of ownership in students, strengthening communication skills, encouraging reflection, building stronger home-school relationships, and instilling lifelong learning skills, student-led conferences can better promote the holistic development of students. Additionally, they can establish effective home-school communication mechanisms and contribute to creating a pure learning environment.

這次由學生主導的會議為學生、家長和教師提供了一個寬松愉快的交流平臺，有助于加深家校間的相互理解，共同促進學生成長。通過培養學生的主人翁意識、強化溝通技巧、推動反思，建立更牢固的家校關系以及掌握終身學習技能，可以更好地推動學生全面發展，同時也能夠建立高效的家校溝通機制，為創造純凈的學習環境做出貢獻。
