项目背景
Chinaway Volunteers Program 是连续了十几年的暑假义工项目。这个项目的口号是“帮助他人,提高自己”。在过去的16年里,该项目不仅帮助中国农村及乡镇孩子学习英语口语,美国文化,以及用英文表达中国文化;也培养了美国学生的领导能力,表达能力,于此同时美国学生也提高了中文水平,演讲水平,开阔了学生的国际视野,学会了如何完成现实中的任务。参加这个项目的学生几乎都进入了美国名校。
当今世界,中国与美国是并行于世界的两大社会体系,治国理念,文化传统,管理规则,道德价值等等都有相当的不同。但两个国家的交流合作,或竞争冲突在世界舞台上又扮演了非常重要的作用,所以了解中国,了解不同于西方体系的社会运作系统在世界上如何发挥作用,是非常重要的,对在美国追求卓越的人拥有极大的启迪作用,而此项目能让学生通过实践深入的了解与认识中国。
Program Background
Chinaway Volunteers Program is a summer volunteer program that has been running for more than 10 years. The program's slogan is "Help Others, Improve Yourself". Over the past 16 years, the program has not only helped children in rural China and townships to learn spoken English, American culture, express Chinese culture in English; it has also developed American students' leadership and presentation skills, as well as allowed American students to improve their Chinese, speaking skills, broaden their international vision, and to learn how to accomplish real-world tasks. Almost all the students in this program have attend high ranking Universities.
In today's world, China and the U.S. are two parallel major social systems in the world, with quite different philosophies of governance, cultural traditions, rules of management, and moral values. However, the exchange and cooperation, or competition and conflict between the two countries play a very important role in the world stage, so it is very important to understand China, to understand the social operation system that is different from the Western system, for some career development. This is a great inspiration for those who pursue excellence in life. This program will give students a deeper understanding of the Chinese system through practice.
