CLTA-SIG: Program Articulation 项目衔接

Description

The Program Articulation SIG aims to promote better articulation across Chinese K-16 programs. We believe good articulation comes from collaboration, which in turn comes from understanding. Therefore, this SIG strives to first bring teachers together so that teachers from different levels and school types can connect and exchange experiences and ideas. The SIG will then help teachers to collaborate on various projects on learning standards, assessment benchmarks, and teaching practices, etc. Such collaborative efforts will lead to the mindset that sees beyond one’s own program and keeps articulation in mind while carrying out various program and curriculum development activities.
