The fifth China-North America international Education Forum
2014年第五届中国-北美国际教育交流论坛
2014.11.15-16 China·Shanghai
Intro
“The 5th China and North American International Education Exchange Forum” concluded with perfect ending on Nov. 17th.
The concept of education differs from traditional one in terms of teaching, preaching, and problem solving. Chinese and overseas educational experts further discussed educational reform and development direction of future education over the theme of “Student-oriented education”, on which they made an impact on interest, individuality, focus and vitality.
The Award Ceremony and Contract Signing Ceremony of “B.C. Blended Learning Center in China” with VPEA moved the forum into high gear. The newly established learning center will get through the cooperation on courses between schools and educational training centers in China and public education in Canada and thus will provide more Chinese students with the opportunities to learn the courses of Canadian high school.
The successful hosting of the forum once again witnessed that VPEA made the development of China education and international education exchange as her mission to create an exchange platform for the cooperation of international education in China and abroad.
