近日，剑桥国际教师职业发展资格认证项目负责人研讨会在北京爱迪学校教与学创新中心举行。剑桥国际教育评估(Cambridge Assessment International Education，简称 CAIE)是剑桥大学的一个分支，提供包括剑桥国际教师职业发展资格认证项目(Cambridge Professional Development Qualification，简称PDQ)在内的一系列国际资格认证。此次研讨会汇集了来自全国的40余位PDQ项目负责人，以促进剑桥国际教师职业发展培训项目的发展。

我校PDQ培训课程完全由教与学创新中心自主研发，有效融合了形成性评价、逆向课程设计、哈佛大学零点计划和教师行动研究等内容。本着“支持每一位教师”的原则，培训开展两年多来，已有数十位教师通过培训并顺利拿到认证证书。在我校学术校长 Paul Keatley 的带领和 Lydia Liu 校长的支持下，爱迪成为去年全国参与PDQ培训教师人数最多的学校。

会上，我校教与学创新中心总监 Russell Hazard 发表了题为“成功开发和实施PDQ项目的思考——构建一个以学习为中心的组织”的演讲，演讲中 Russell 总监谈到，对于一个学校来说，PDQ项目为来自不同学科的教师提供研讨的平台，促进问题的有效解决，从而改进教学实践;教师则有机会基于已知的理论和实践，反思职业生涯，提出改进学校实践的想法，促进自下而上的积极变革;学生将更好地获取教师的支持，促进学习的主动性和参与度。

在学习型组织中的每个人，从最高管理层到每个部门主管、团队领导、教师和学生，都应该通过协作探究，一起进行周期性学习。学校是一个动态的组织，每一个人都应适应知识和技能的不断变化, 成为学习型组织的一部分, 并不断创造新的知识。这也是教与学创新中心的未来努力方向。

我校始终致力于师资力量的培养，这也正体现了教与学创新中心的战略发展目标——把爱迪学校打造成为一个学习型组织，紧跟全球最先进的教育研究，引领教育实践，培养学生和教师具备世界公民的素质和能力。

Being a Learning Organization

The Aidi School Teaching, Learning, and Innovation (TLI) Center hosted the Cambridge Assessment International Education (CAIE) Professional Development Qualifications (PDQ) Programme Leader’s Workshop series in the Aidi Innovation Lab. CAIE is a branch of Cambridge University that offers a range of programs and qualifications internationally including the PDQ teacher professional development qualifications.

Each PDQ program, though accredited by Cambridge, is unique in its design and delivery. Using the PDQ program, the educational research team in the Aidi Teaching, Learning, and Innovation Center has developed an integrated year and a half long post-graduate training in teaching that effectively integrates the work of Project Zero from Harvard University, the Buck Institute of Education, the Understanding by Design curricular development framework, and teacher-led action research training.

In providing this program to all of our teachers, Aidi School seeks to support them in continually improving their capacity to support our students as well as growing their own pride in professional practice and well-being. Based on this principle of supporting every teacher, spearheaded by Headmaster Paul Keatley and supported by Principal Lydia Liu, Aidi School has become the school with the highest number of Cambridge PDQ participants in all of China last year. The PDQ Programme Leader’s workshop brought together over 40 participants from around China to enhance their understanding of the PDQ program. Experts from Cambridge led workshops over two days, supported by experienced PDQ Programme Leaders such as the Aidi TLI Center Director.

At the two day PDQ workshop, Russell Hazard, Director of the Aidi School Teaching, Learning, and Innovation Center, led a workshop entitled "Reflecting on successful PDQ program development and implementation: Becoming a learning-centered organization". In the workshop, Russell said that well designed PDQ programs can provide a forum for teachers from different disciplines and grades to interact and learn together, develop a whole school community for problem solving, and can be used to make research-based teaching and learning practices accessible to all teachers. However, he discussed the critical need to incorporate these goals into a broader effort for schools to become true learning organizations.

A learning organization is a term for an agile institution in which everyone - from the top management team, through every department head, team leader, teacher, and student - are all learning together through collaborative cycles of inquiry/research. This 21st century model of practice is revolutionary because, instead of schools being static organizations that disseminate similar knowledge year after year, schools become dynamic places in which every single person becomes used to the constantly changing nature of in-demand knowledge and skills, as well as becoming part of an institution that actually creates new knowledge. This is the model the TLI Center uses to promote excellence throughout Aidi School’s staff and students, both during teacher professional development and through student programs such as multidisciplinary Project Based Learning in the Innovation Lab.

Aidi School has always been committed to supporting our teachers as well as our students. This effort is reflected in the central strategic development goals of the Teaching, Learning and Innovation Center - to lead Aidi School as a learning organization that is part of the world's most advanced educational research and practice circles, and thereby help both students and teachers to reach their full potential both intellectually, emotionally, and as citizens equipped for the future.
