上周,尚音校区非常荣幸地迎来了两位来自硅谷的神秘客人。AltSchool的Max Ventilla和Jeff Lui 。让小编先来扒一扒Altschool是个什么来头。
Last week we enjoyed hosting representatives, Max Ventilla and Jeff Lui, from the Silicon Valley’s AltSchool,. Let’s take a look at the general picture of Altschool first.
Altschool成立于2013年,其创始人是GOOGLE+创建团队中的一员马克斯•温蒂拉(Max Ventilla),Altschool的高管层则是从谷歌和Uber挖来的。最近,马克•扎克伯格刚刚成为它最大的投资人之一……Altschool是一项在旧金山湾区进行的教育实验,它秉承着以“学生为中心”的教学理念,拥有一批具有前沿思维的教师、一支强大的技术支持团队,强调孩子的学习应该是按自身的步调去追逐自己的兴趣爱好。
AltSchool was founded in 2013 with Max Ventilla, who was one of the establisher of Google+. The executive team is mostly from GOOGLE and Uber. Recently, Mark Zuckerberg has just become one of its biggest investors… The core values of the school is that it is student-centered, emphasizing that a child’s learning should be differentiated, according to their own pace and interests. In Altschool teachers and engineers work closely to support teaching and learning.
