As a representative of the first generation of education departments

John of Salisbury

Created a multidisciplinary social university - the University of Paris

And assisted in the establishment of three social universities - Oxford University

When it comes to education, he once said:

The purpose of education

It is sufficient training to give people the 'innate gift' from God

Make it more functional

Fully cultivate people's' innate qualifications'

Enable its purpose to be implemented

Messalonskee, Oakland, Maine, USA

Amanda Ripa, a high school science teacher, is exactly like this

This Teacher's Day, she was awarded the Gustav OHAUS award

This award was established by Ohhaus in 1969

Only awarded to teachers who have made contributions in the academic community

Scholars who have performed well in the field of science education

(So far, nearly 50 relevant representatives have won awards)

As a high school teacher

Ripa is good at guiding students to use what they have learned

Find and create scientifically simple methods

The ability to solve environmental problems in one's own community

In 2016, she led her students to launch the Power Plants project

They optimized the use of school water reservoirs

Continuously improving the water quality of campus reservoirs

More than 160 middle school students actively participated in it

Embark on a journey of establishing interdisciplinary research exploration

Before the start of the Power Plants project

The school reservoir is only used for filtering rainwater

Unable to prevent the proliferation of algae and plants in the pool

Ripa hopes to establish floating islands and plant plants in the reservoir

To improve the water quality of the reservoir in this way

Under Ripa's guidance

The students built two floating islands in the reservoir

Planting new plants on the floating island

Simultaneously perform regular maintenance on it

And continuously monitor the water quality of the pool

Assessing whether floating islands contribute to improving water quality

Talking about the future development of Power Plants

Ripa hopes it can be handled by students

As the project progresses,

Optimization design of the project

Regular monitoring of water quality in reservoirs

Evaluation of water quality improvement effect

All are good opportunities for students to exercise and practice

Good education is collaborative education between teachers and students,

Like iron grinding iron and sharpening a blade.

The cultivation of learning is not solely based on rationality,

Creativity can also be used.

——John of Salisbury

The Gustav OHAUS Award Evaluation Committee believes that

Ripa's educational philosophy and passion

Help students practice what they have learned

Not only does it stimulate students' creativity

It has also truly improved the environment and education

Therefore, Ohhaus presented a gift to Messalonskee High School

A water quality analysis product worth $1000

And reward Teacher Ripa with $1500

Simultaneously funding their participation in Atlanta, Georgia, USA

The 2018 National Conference of Science Teachers

Mastering knowledge is not the purpose of education

The purpose of education is to use knowledge to benefit humanity

We look forward to more 'Ripa Teacher' in the future“

Cultivate children's responsibility and practical ability

Guide children to learn 'learning for practical use' from an early age
