斯坦福大学SPICE
斯坦福国际和跨文化教育项目(SPICE)创立于1976年,隶属于斯坦福大学弗里曼·斯波格利国际研究学院(FSI)。FSI致力于探索跨越国际边界并影响世界各地生活的问题和政策等。通过其跨学科的学院及12个中心和研究计划,该研究院增进了对治理、卫生政策、移民、发展、安全以及亚洲、欧洲和拉丁美洲等地区动态的知识和理解,促使斯坦福大学参与解决一些世界上最紧迫的问题。
SPICE充分汲取斯坦福大学作为硅谷创新原动力的优势,通过发展国际化主题的跨学科课程,为斯坦福大学和K-12学校建立了桥梁和衔接。
U.S.–China Co-Lab on Climate Solutions 中美联合实验室
- 关于气候问题的解决方案
With climate change upon us, cooperation between the U.S. and China is more urgent than ever as we work towards sustainable solutions for our planet.
随着气候变化的到来,中美之间的合作比以往任何时候都更加紧迫,我们致力于为我们的星球寻求可持续的解决方案。
SPICE announces a new, transnational, online high school program for students from the U.S. and China. We are seeking 15 students from each country, 10th through 12th graders who are intellectually curious, with a sincere desire to connect across cultures and tackle the climate crisis.
SPICE宣布为来自美国和中国的学生推出一项新的跨国在线高中学术项目。我们将招募来自中美两国的各15名优秀的10-12年级的学生,希望他们具有求知欲,并真诚地渴望建立跨文化联系,以学习和探索应对气候危机的方案。
As the world’s two superpowers, biggest economies, and largest sources of carbon emissions, the United States and China must collaborate on climate solutions to ensure global sustainability. U.S.-China relations are complicated, across cultures, oceans, technological firewalls, and political tensions. The pressing need for committed and well-informed young people to delve into this vital challenge led to the launch of the U.S.–China Co-Lab on Climate Solutions, an active lab for collaborative practice engaging both Chinese and American students in one class as co-learners.
作为世界上两个超级大国、最大的经济体和最大的碳排放源国家,美国和中国必须在气候问题解决方案上进行合作,以确保全球可持续发展。中美关系很复杂,因为其跨越文化、海域、科技技术和政治局势。因为迫切需要信念坚定且信息灵敏的年轻人深入参与研究这一重大挑战,所以成立了“中美联合实验室-关于气候问题的解决方案”这一新项目。这将是一个活跃的合作性实验室,让中国和美国学生在一个班级里共同学习。
