2022暑期線上游學
2022 Ottawa Summer School
由于疫情的影響，21級的小鸚鵡們?nèi)詿o法奔赴國外進行游學。今年，同學們繼續(xù)通過Brightspace連線千里之外的渥太華大學，進行線上暑期游學。在參加完渥太華大學熱情的orientation之后，我們的summer school正式開始啦。
在這個暑假里，我們進行了三門課程的學習： ANT (Social and cultural anthropology)，HSS (Determinants of health), PSY ( Introduction to psychology: applications)。
Due to the impact of the pandemic, we were still unable to travel abroad for study tours. This year we continued to get in touch with the University of Ottawa thousands of miles away from home through Brightspace for an online summer school. After the warmly orientation of University of Ottawa, our summer school officially began.
During this summer vacation, we studied three courses: HSS (Determinants of health), APA (Physical activity in a global health perspective), ANT (Social and cultural Anthropology).
ANT: Social and cultural anthropology
在Social and Cultural Anthropology這門課程中，我們學習了人類學在解釋社會現(xiàn)象、分析社會問題等方面的作用。教授通過PPT、文獻、廣播等多種多樣的資料為我們講授了人類學的知識，并提供了鮮活的案例來讓我們進行分析。別具一格的教學方式令課堂不再只是拘泥于知識和課本，而是真正地走入了社會，為我們提供了應用知識的絕佳場景。在暑期的課程中，我們不僅是學到了知識，運用了知識，更多的是學到了一種對待知識的態(tài)度。相信這會對我們未來的醫(yī)學生涯大有裨益。
In the lecture of Social and Cultural Anthropology, we've learnt to explain social phenomenon and analyze problems in the society from an anthropological perspective. Through the various slides, literature and podcasts, the professor impart knowledge to us by providing concrete cases for us to analyze. This unique way of teaching provided us with the best real-time scenario to apply what we have learnt in class. Through the summer courses, we not only learnt and applied our knowledge, but also obtained a new attitude towards knowledge. I believe this will help us a lot in the future.
HSS: Determinants of health
在HSS這門課程中，我們主要學習了日常生活中影響健康的多方面因素、某些因素失衡所導致的影響和病癥和如何采取更健康的生活方式等內(nèi)容。在課程中，老師采用了講解、視頻和教科書相結合的授課方式，讓我們對講解內(nèi)容記憶更加深刻。同時，教授在課程后拓展的內(nèi)容也經(jīng)過精挑細選，讓對某方面感興趣的同學可以在課后有擴充知識的方向。在課程中，我們也可以給教授互動，通過郵件聯(lián)系，教授也會及時回復我們提出的問題，進行解答。在課程的最后，老師更是錄制了告別視頻，師生交流令人暖心。
In the HSS course, we mainly learnt about the various factors that affect health in daily life, the effects and illnesses caused by the imbalances of certain factors, and how to adopt a healthier lifestyle. In the course, the teacher adopted a combination of lectures, videos and textbooks to make us remember the content more deeply. At the same time, further readings recommended by the professor were also carefully selected, so that students who were interested in a certain aspect knew where to expand their knowledge after class. In the course, we could also interact with the professor and contact them by email. The professor would always respond to us promptly regardless of the time difference. At the end of the course, the teacher recorded a farewell video for us. The teacher-student interaction was heart-warming.
PSY :Introduction to psychology: applications
PSY是一??理學課程，內(nèi)容包括關于?格發(fā)展，?理疾病及其治療?法和壓?管理等。課程包括教學視頻和電影觀賞等不同教學?法，使得學?們能從多??了解課題。教授的課件?包含由課題中延伸的內(nèi)容，這能激發(fā)同學們對課題的好奇?，讓我們更有動?去知道更多有關?理學的知識。另外, 電影觀賞為課題提供了具體的例?，比如由’Stanford Prison Experiments’的記錄?中可以知道?的?為和社交環(huán)境有關；完成電影后需要寫一段?感想給教授，教授亦會根據(jù)你的觀點進?回覆，因此即使是線上教學，也能有友善的老師交流的機會。
PSY is a psychology course which focuses on the development of personality, psychological disorders & treatments and how to manage stress, etc. There were regular tutorial videos and film assignments for us to learn those topics in different ways. The slides included not only the details that we need to know for exam but also the supplementary notes that cultivated our interest in psychology. Moreover, the films provided concrete examples to help us understand what we have learned in the course. Take the documentary ‘Stanford Prison Experiment’ as an example, it illustrated that human behaviour is affected by social situations. After watching the film, we were asked to give some feedback of the movie and professor Schindler would reply to us and share some of his thoughts too.. Even though the course was delivered online, the close & intimate conversations of the course made it as if we were having face- to-face lessons.
本次線上游學項目讓同學們居家也可以遠程參加到渥太華大學的課程。通過zoom會議以及Brightspace等線上交流平臺，同學們與渥太華大學教授實時互動，不僅學到了新的知識，提升了自我，也豐富了暑假的生活。
This summer school program enabled students to have access to the courses in University of Ottawa at home. Thanks to various online platforms such as Zoom and Brightspace, students were able to have real-time interaction with their professors, acquire new knowledge and maximize their summer vacation.
