本校舉辦教師專業發展評鑑初階培訓

本校於11月29、30日舉辦為期兩天的教師專業發展評鑑初階培訓，邀請大理高中退休校長，現任淡江大學講師及教育部教師專業發展評鑑輔導委員黃淑馨校長蒞校演講。黃校長結合17年擔任校長的豐厚行政經驗及研究心得，深入淺出地引導參加教師們如何在「課程設計與教學」上精進。所有參加初階培訓研習的教師需預先參加至少10小時線上研習課程，瞭解教師專業發展評鑑的規準、教學觀察的進行方式與工具記錄，然後才參加本次培訓。雖然整整兩天的課程有些辛苦，但黃校長精闢的經驗傳授不但課程精采且笑聲不斷，老師們經由觀察不同課程領域的教學影片、對問題的討論與操作進行腦力激盪與心得分享，都使人覺得收穫良多，更希望將培訓所學的心得與經驗相結合，以期讓教學技巧精益求精。

黃士淵老師榮獲教育部高中教學活動設計優勝

黃士淵老師設計的「夜光風箏」單元教學活動勇奪99年度教育部高中生活科技學科中心單元教學活動設計的優勝。「夜光風箏」起源於黃士淵老師常常在假日的下午帶著全家去新竹南寮漁港放風箏，但隨著秋冬季節的到來，傍晚的時候天色很快地就暗了，因此期盼能將放風箏的時間延長到晚上。但一般夜光風箏所使用的鋰電池，除了重量重、危險性高及過度放電等等的缺點，在空中所能提供照明的時間是短暫的，而且會影響風箏的穩定性。因此設計教學活動所製作的夜光風箏係以風力發電為主要提供電源的作法，讓夜光風箏靠著風力發電組，可以持續且穩定的電源提供給LED發光之用，進而達到不需使用外接電源，且可以連續使用的目的。

水中競速與競距風和日麗展創意

第三屆物理創意教學活動「行舟大賽」，已於11月17日下午假本校游泳池舉行完畢。經過激烈的競逐，高二4班「S.T.D隊」獲得競距項目的第一名，高二4班的「黃金梅莉隊」則在競速項目勝出，獲得冠軍。今年此項活動由陳元彰、游彥辰和賴奕帆三位老師所規劃和指導，目的是讓學生經由動手製作，培養團隊合作，發揮創意及解決問題的能力。活動過程中，在經過老師的理論課程講解之後，學生便各自分組，報名組隊參加。各組學生使出渾身解數，動手做出成品，結合理論與創意，成果令人驚豔！值得一提的是，主辦單位所提供的一大桶紅豆湯圓（約30公升）大家竟然都把它都解決了!真是太好吃了! 【實驗研究組/記者鐵丁/實驗中學報導】

Teacher Shr-Yuan Huang receives an award from the Ministry of Education

Teacher Shr-Yuan Huang𠏋幞ighttime Kites?honorably received recognition from the Ministry of Education for being the best high school educational design material in 2010. 幞ighttime Kites?originated after teacher Huang-Shr Yuan took numerous trips with his family to Nan-Liao, Hsinchu to fly kites. He realized that as winter is just around the corner, there must be a way to fly kites even as the sun sets earlier in the evening. However, the batteries used by typical night time kites are not only heavy, but also carry consequences such as risks of danger. Such batteries can only illuminate the night sky for a brief period and will also affect the stability of the kite as a whole. Therefore, the educational design activity created a new night time kite that used wind power as its main source of energy, allowing the kite battery to be fuelled solely from the wind. This new battery not only allows the kite to fly with stability, but also allows it to continually soar in the sky without external sources of energy.

A Creative Competition of Speed and Distance in Water

孏he Sailing Competition,?the Third Annual Physics Creative Activity, was held in the afternoon on November 17th. After an intense competition, teams from Class 204 won the first place in both the distance and speed categories. This event was planned and supervised by Mr. Chen Yuen Chung, Mr. Liu Yen Chen, and Mr. Lai Yi Fan, with the aim of cultivating team spirit, strengthening students problem solving skills, and enhancing students creativity. After learning about the basic physics principles, students formed groups and signed up for the activity. Each group unleashed their potential, combining theory with creativity, and created outstanding final products. Something noteworthy was that the hosts of the event provided a bucket of Tang Yuen that was quickly devoured by the contestants. [Reported by Tyeh Ding from NEHS]
