讲座内容：
全球素养对儿童的教育成就和长远发展至关重要。然而，如何以既贴合年龄特点又富有意义的方式，将其融入低龄学生的语言教学中？本次讲座将探讨全球素养的内涵及其在当今快速变迁的数字时代中的重要价值。讲者将提出一个基于“全人教育”理念的框架，用于在幼儿英语教学中系统融入全球素养——该框架以儿童年龄及其社会、认知、心理、情感、身体、创造性与语言发展阶段为出发点，通过教学引导，帮助孩子：
i）在选择和决策中掌握自主权，
ii）逐步承担自身学习与行为的责任，
iii）形成表达自我观点和思想的独特声音，
iv）积极行动，为本地乃至全球社群作出贡献。
讲座核心将聚焦于实用的教学思路与课堂活动，展示如何借助故事实施该框架，综合、自然地促进幼儿的语言交际能力与全球素养发展。现场将结合讲者自编故事案例进行说明。最后，讲座将总结通过故事教学培养幼儿全球素养的多重益处，助力他们成长为有责任感、关爱他人的社区成员，以及积极主动、自信满满的语言学习者
Session Description:
Global skills are critical to children's educational success and long-term future. But how can we incorporate them into language teaching with young children in a meaningful and age-appropriate way? In this session, we will explore what global skills are and why they are so important in today's fast moving, digital world. I will then propose a framework for integrating global skills in ELT with young children based on a whole child approach, which takes as its starting point children's age and stage of social, cognitive, psychological, emotional, physical, creative and language development and, through the process of learning, leads them to i) have agency in their choices and decision-making, ii) take increasing responsibility for their learning and behaviour, iii) develop a unique, personal voice in expressing their ideas and opinions, and iv) take positive action to contribute to the local or global community. The main part of the session will focus on practical ideas and classroom activities to illustrate how we can use a story to implement the framework and develop communicative language learning and global skills with young children in an integrated and accessible way. The session will include an example based on one of the presenter's own stories. The conclusion will summarize the benefits of developing global skills through storytelling with young children to help them become responsible, caring members of the community as well as engaged and confident language learners.
