講座一：美國(guó)高等教育的道德使命  
時(shí)間：3月17日 上午9：30-12：00

    縱觀美國(guó)高等教育發(fā)展史，哈佛學(xué)院從建立之初有著怎樣的教育目標(biāo)？隨著經(jīng)濟(jì)的發(fā)展，近年來(lái)，它的教育目標(biāo)又受到了什么樣的挑戰(zhàn)，在未來(lái)哈佛學(xué)院又準(zhǔn)備如何去應(yīng)對(duì)這些挑戰(zhàn)？哈佛學(xué)院目前的現(xiàn)狀又是什么樣的？對(duì)于經(jīng)濟(jì)飛速發(fā)展的今天中國(guó)，哈佛學(xué)院又給了中國(guó)高等教育什么樣的借鑒意義？ 

Professor Lewis will deliver two lectures on higher education. In the first talk he will sketch the history of American higher education, and how it was from the beginning (that is, from the founding of Harvard College in 1636) at least as much about civic and moral purposes as it was about skill training and economic development. Those civic and moral ideals for higher education have been challenged in recent years, and Professor Lewis will explain how issues of purpose may be resolved in the future. These matters are of critical importance today, as the U.S. feels economic competition globally and from China in particular, at the same time as many Chinese students seek higher education in the U.S. and many U.S. universities seek international talent and revenue.

 

講座二：信息時(shí)代的課堂重塑  
時(shí)間：3月17日 下午2：30-4：30

    Harry Lewis教授為我們描述了即將來(lái)臨的大學(xué)層面教學(xué)法的改革，不是MOOC的影響，而是如何從傳統(tǒng)的講授到主動(dòng)學(xué)習(xí)，以小組為單位，師生充分的合作與交流。他將從自己親身構(gòu)建新型課程的教學(xué)經(jīng)驗(yàn)和體會(huì)出發(fā)，講述如何玩轉(zhuǎn)這樣的“反轉(zhuǎn)課堂”。

Reinventing the Classroom in the Information Age

In his second lecture, Professor Lewis will describe a coming revolution in university-level pedagogy. Not the MOOC revolution, but a revolution in the use of the classroom. Far less time will be spent lecturing (since the Internet can be used for mere information transmission), and far more time on “active learning,” team-based, collaborative, interactive engagement of teachers and students. He will describe in some detail his own experience creating and teaching such a “flipped classroom” course, in discrete mathematics for computer science.

 

    Harry Lewis是哈佛大學(xué)工程與應(yīng)用科學(xué)學(xué)院計(jì)算機(jī)科學(xué)專(zhuān)業(yè)的約旦•麥凱教授（一種榮譽(yù)教授頭銜），從教40年。1968年在哈佛大學(xué)獲得學(xué)士學(xué)位，1973年獲得碩士學(xué)位，1974年獲得博士學(xué)位。博士畢業(yè)后，他一直任教于哈佛大學(xué)。1995年-2003年，他被任命為哈佛大學(xué)哈佛學(xué)院院長(zhǎng)。在這個(gè)崗位上，他對(duì)本科生教育和通識(shí)教育有了深刻的理解與思考。基于此，他撰寫(xiě)了《失去靈魂的卓越--哈佛大學(xué)是如何忘記它的使命的》一書(shū)，影響廣泛。

Harry Lewis is Gordon McKay Professor of Computer Science in the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences at Harvard University, where he in his fortieth year of teaching. He created the undergraduate computer science degree program at Harvard and has helped launch many thousands of Harvard students towards careers in the field. Among the giants of the computer industry he taught while they were Harvard students are both Microsoft founder Bill Gates and Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg. 

Professor Lewis holds the degrees of AB (1968), AM (1973), and PhD (1974), all from Harvard University in Applied Mathematics. He joined the Harvard faculty in 1974 and served as Dean of Harvard College from 1995–2003. His teaching, research, and writing have ranged across a variety of fields: mathematical logic, theoretical computer science, the impact on society of the digital information explosion, the role of sports in American society, and the future of higher education. His most recent books are Excellence Without a Soul; Does Liberal Education Have a Future? and Blown to Bits: Your Life, Liberty, and Happiness After the Digital Explosion. Both of these books have been translated into Chinese and have appeared in editions published in China.
