语言，是一系列高低起伏，承载着独特含义的声音符号，所有的语言学习，其本质都是一样的，需要环境的营造，对于国际学校的孩子来说，英语的学习和运用，显得尤其重要。
近日，BANZ英语教学组将PBL搬入课堂，以「TED」演讲的方式让同学们把英语学习运用于实际，在完成目标的过程中，自我解决自我提升。课堂运用沉浸式、情境式、戏剧化、游戏化的教学模式，赋能学生全球视野和跨文化交流能力，培养学生自由精神和独立思想。
PBL（Project-BasedLearning）
项目教学法，指通过实施一个完整的项目而进行的教学活动，强调以学生为主体，老师为引导，依托设定项目主体和学习方式，让孩子自主观察、分析、探究、展示与分享，锻炼孩子自主分析和解决实际问题的能力。
课程关键词：
✔TED&BANZ；
✔PBL英语学习；
✔学生主导型探究学习；
✔关注社会热点话题；
✔全球视野和批判性思维；
✔group work+leadership+creativity；
✔英文presentation；
课程设计理念：
学习是提出问题解决问题的过程，英语学习更是跟社会、人文、文化等息息相关。随着时代不断变幻，未来优秀人才更要具备全球视野、批判性思维、创造力和协作能力。
基于cyber bullying（网络暴力）和body shame（身体羞耻）等社会热点话题，引导学生进行PBL（项目式学习）。将学习的主动权还给学生，将问题的答案留给探索与未知，鼓励学生对于社会问题探讨和研究，不仅帮助学生将所学知识做到融会贯通, 更能通过PBL的训练锻炼批判性思维、团队协作能力、领导力、创造力等社会必备能力，帮助学生真正的化知识为力量, 做到学以致用。

Why some incompetent people tend to be over- confident
指导老师：Bella Guo
Good afternoon everyone, before ourspeech, I have a query .Have you ever heard someone who said that “I’m the best Mack Daddy in the world”or something like“Why am I so perfect？”It's a subjective question so we cannot judge whether he is right or wrong, but we can see whether he is exaggerating on his own conditions.
So this is associated with our topic “Why are incompetent people over-confident”
In order to give you a deeper understanding ,I have prepared a situation for you and then I will choose three people randomly to answer my following questions.
If someone were looking at you right now, for what reason would you think they were looking at you?
(Answers)
Thanks for all your answers. These answers showed that someone is modest, somebody is confident and someone is over-confident. Why does this happen？Now let's welcome Olivia to give you the professional explanation.
Knowing how competent we are and how do skills stack up against other people is more than a self-esteem boost. It helps us to figure out when we can forge ahead on our own decisions and instincts and when we need, instead, to seek out advice. But psychological research suggests that we're not very good at evaluating ourselves accurately. In fact, we frequently overestimate our own abilities. Researchers gave a name for this phenomena, the Dunning-Kruger effect. As the figure shows, we can see that The Y-axis is confidence and the X-axis is intelligence.
This effect explains why more than 100 studies have shown that people display illusory superiority. We judge ourselves as better than others to a degree that violates the laws of math.
Next, I will introduce the difference between self- confidence and conceit.
l understand that the self-confidence is more compatible. He is more able to recognise the ability and strength of others.
But conceited people can't see the excellence and bright sides of others and over-estimate their own abilities.
Confidence and conceit can also change positions under certain conditions. From self-confidence to conceit, from modesty and prudence to arrogance, there are many people like that. These people are usually complacent and forgetful because of their insignificant achievements. After experiencing a period of glory, they inevitably goto a conceited path and become arrogant and self-righteous. However, they do not know that their former glory has been subconsciously faded.
Self-confidence is the foundation of doing things. Believe in yourself, but not blindly. According to your own strength, the goal is set appropriately and the conditions for completion are just right, so you are not far from success.
For Internet: Post some overconfident comments on the Internet or belittling others to show yourself.
For Comments：Post your own experience under other people's posts to gain public attention.
Ability: Overconfidence in one's ability leads to failure.e.g.you think you're good at a specified subject, but your score is low.
For Relationship between you and your friends：
Overconfidence may cause trouble to others, e.g. some overconfident comments actually offend people while you do not even realize it.
大家下午好，在我们演讲之前，我有一个问题。你有没有听过有人说“我是世界上最好的爸爸”或“为什么我这么完美？”这是一个主观的问题，所以我们无法判断他是对还是错，但我们可以看到他是否夸大了自己的条件。
所以这与我们的主题“为什么普通的人过于自信”有关。
为了让大家有更深入的了解，我会随机选择三个人来回答我下面的问题——“如果现在有人在看着你，你认为他们为什么在看着你？”
大家的这些答案表明，有人谦虚，有人自信，有人过于自信。为什么会这样？现在让我们欢迎Olivia给大家专业的讲解。
了解我们有多么胜任以及我们的技能与其他人相比如何，不仅仅能增强自尊心，它还有助于我们弄清楚何时我们可以按照自己的决定和直觉大步向前？何时我们需要去寻求建议？但心理研究表明，我们不是很擅长准确地评估自己，研究人员给这种现象起了个名字，叫做【邓宁-克鲁格效应】。如图所示，我们可以看到Y轴是信心，X轴是智力，这种效应解释了为什么 100 多项研究表明：人们表现出虚幻的优越感，我们判断自己会比别人来的更好好，这违反了数学定律。
接下来，由我向大家介绍自信和自负的区别。
自信更相容，他更能认识到他人的能力和力量，但是自负的人看不到别人的长处和优点，而且高估自己的能力。自信和自负在特定条件下也可以互换位置，从自信到自负，从谦虚谨慎到傲慢自大，这样的人有很多。这些人通常因为微不足道的成就而沾沾自喜、得意忘形，经历过一段时间的辉煌后，他们不可避免地会走向自负的道路，变得傲慢和自以为是。他们却不知道，自己曾经的辉煌已经已经在不知不觉中暗淡了。
自信是做事的基础。相信自己，但不要盲目。根据自己的实力，适当设定目标并完成，那你离成功不远了。
在互联网上发表一些过于自信的评论或贬低他人以展示自己，在别人的帖子下发表自己的经历以获得公众的关注……事实上对自己的能力过度自信会导致你的失败，比如你认为自己在某门课程上很厉害，但是分数很低。比如你和你的朋友之间，因为过度自信的言论从而冒犯到对方，给别人带来麻烦，而你甚至都没有意识到这一点。
发现、探究、汲取、融合
让更多形式走进课堂
也能跳出课堂放眼社会与世界
这是BANZ课堂上的一节缩影
也是我们想要为孩子们构建的
