B4用外語說國際事-模擬聯合國
STMUN (12/5-6) 義大國際中學
Our elective class students finally had their first major MUN experience after months of preparation. We attended the sixth annual Southern Taiwan Model United Nations (STMUN) held at I-Shou International School in Kaohsiung. The two-day event was well-planned and included a dinner and Winter Carnival on the first night. Our ladies really enjoyed that unique experience. During the conference, they made their opening speeches, lobbied with other delegates to make compromises, merged their draft resolutions to create unified solutions, debated on the merits of theirs and others' resolutions, and then finally voted on the effectiveness of the proposed solutions. The SKMUN Elective delegates performed well despite the pressure of being the only local school involved - all others were American or International schools. There were even schools from Saudi Arabia and the Philippines involved. Congratulations to all those involved! We're now looking forward to TainanMUN, TAIMUN, and of course, SKMUN in August, 2015! |
STMUN Training Session II (11.30)
With STMUN less than a week away, we met up with the students on a chilly Sunday morning to help them with the final preparations for the conference. The focus today was on finalizing DRs, pre-merging, and improving students' debating techniques with a mock MUN. The students got tips on how to craft an opening and supporting speech, how to make and answer POI's, and the best ways to get out of a tight spot. All in all, they learned a lot and had a good time. |
Mock MUN (11.18)
Our SKMUN elective class students participated in a mock MUN today. The main purpose was to give them some experience with MUN rules and procedures. We debated just one operative clause dealing with a potential dress code for teachers. The students learned a lot and participated well. We're all looking forward to the upcoming STMUN event!! |
STMUN Training Session (11.1.2014)
Our dedicated SKMUN advisors and SK civics teachers hosted a training session this past weekend for all of our SKMUN club members and MUN elective class students. The focus was on understanding and researching their STMUN issues and beginning to write their position papers. The next training session will be on 11.29 and will focus on finishing up Draft Resolutions and preparing for STMUN through debate practice and a mock MUN. Look forward to seeing everyone there!
