唔好意思,工作太忙,所以咁遲先回帖,首先多謝各位關心,另外leeamy還在線嗎?我再查看過cty其中middle school science的 demo內容,覺得是一套非常好的敎材,小兒對physical science很有興趣,但覺得earth & space science 比較淺,現在他學 ...
Actually CTY program is administered by Johns Hopkins University of Maryland, USA. And this program is as famous (認授性) as EPGY of Stanford University. Maybe some moms/dads do not know about it, but I am sure all Universities in Hong Kong/all over the world know about it.
In the US, middle school means Primary 6 to Secondary 2, that is grade 6 to grade 8, and it is not odd for your son at the age of 10/11 to attend those courses, because in the US, their curriculum is very different. If your child's any subject at school is excellent enough, the school will let your child skip to a higher grade for that the same subject. Let's say, your child is now at grade 7, his mathematics is good, very good that he gets A+ all along. Then the school will let your child studies grade 8 mathematics, but the other subjects stay at grade 7 level, cool??
If you want, send an email to CTY program in the US, and ask what you could do to enroll. Let your son try the assessment. Actually when my son did the assessment, his English was not good, and the marks were not high. As for the mathematics portion of the assessment, the important thing is make sure your son knows his math at school. Besides, since this assessment is in English, if he learns math in English that would be fine.
In my son's Secondary school, there is not much support. We did not claim any credits from CTY, that means, my son still needs to attend any mathematics courses at school. To us, doing all those Mathematics exercises is go for training the brain, and my son agrees. So I just went to his Mathematics teacher every year, telling him that my son is doing which CTY courses.
Besides, the school will post what organization offer what courses they can enroll. But the school does not do any help. As I know even the course from the Government 資優敎育學院 offers 無持續性的貴價興趣班, not to talk about CU.
If you are looking for 持續性的課程, only EPGY (infokids in HK) and CTY (online) can do. |
