2025年4月11日，协和浦东三林校区的A1和A2年级地理与历史学科组的学生们踏上了一场意义深远的上海城市徒步探索之旅。上海，这座拥有众多建筑遗产和文化传说的城市，无疑是一个理想的“户外课堂”。在这一天中，学生们不仅能够亲身体验这座城市的独特魅力，还能在实地考察中丰富他们的知识和见闻。
On 11th April, students from the Sanlin Campus' A Level Geography & History course embarked on an enriching walking tour of Shanghai. Shanghai offers a large amount of architectural heritage and cultural stories, making it the perfect classroom for a day of learning.
外滩 The Bund
学生们搭乘渡轮到达外滩，开始了他们烧脑暴走的一天。站在江边，面对浦东的标志性建筑群，他们进行了一场关于上海殖民时期及其几十年来不屈不挠发展历史的演讲，并介绍了多座具有历史意义的建筑。对地理学感兴趣的同学特别指出，那些具有欧洲风格的建筑与中国的传统建筑之间存在着显著的差异。
The students arrived at the Bund by ferry and embarked on a day of exploration and education. Standing by the river, facing the iconic buildings of Pudong, students shared presentations describing Shanghai's colonial past and its survival through decades of change, going over many historical buildings such as the Zheng Dan building. Geography enthusiasts pointed out how many buildings with European design contrasts with traditional Chinese architecture.
江海关大楼
Shanghai Customs House
接着，学生们徜徉在法式文化街区，那里石库门建筑与装饰艺术风格的建筑相邻而建。在江海关大楼前，他们讨论了上海的历史价值以及它在当前贸易和文化互动中的关键角色。

Next, the students wandered through the former French Concession, where shikumen (stone-gate) houses and Art Deco buildings stand side by side. At the customs house, the students discussed the historical significance of Shanghai and its modern day importance in trade and cultural exchanges.
上海邮政总局
Shanghai General Post Building
当天的亮点是由学生们主导的演讲环节。每位学生都提前对自己负责的地点进行了深入研究，并在现场扮演起了“导游”的角色进行介绍。他们的讲解内容从上海邮政总局大楼到上海电力公司，不仅包括了建筑风格，还涉及了历史发展的关键节点以及城市空间与地理环境的相互影响。
A highlight of the day was the peer-led presentations. Each student researched a site beforehand, transforming into "tour guides" on location. From the Shanghai general post building to the First Electricity Firm, their talks covered architectural styles, historical milestones, and the interplay between urban spaces and geography.

“漫步历史长河，有助于学生理解地理如何塑造文化，反之亦然。”
"Walking through history helps students grasp how geography shapes culture—and vice versa."
南京路
Nanjing Road
A2A 的Eva同学作为南京路活动的策划及向导，带领学生们沿着南京路观察刻有上海著名地标和建筑的井盖。让学生们猜测对应的建筑，并分享了这些建筑的起源和历史传承相关知识。
A student-led activity was created by Eva Ye of A2A which took the students on a walking tour of manhole covers down Nanjing road engraved with famous landmarks and buildings of Shanghai. Eva had students guess the building and shared historical facts about the origin and heritage of the buildings.
新天地
XinTianDi
最后，学生们在新天地进行了反思，总结了当天的学习成果。地理专业的学生将他们所学的贸易、规模经济、城市更新以及中央商务区迁移等知识应用到当天所见的景象中，历史专业的学生则围绕上海在贸易和外交关系中的角色，以及老上海不同街区在时代变迁中的作用展开讨论。
The group reflected and concluded their day of studies at XinTianDi. The geography students applied their knowledge of trade, economies of scale, urban renewal and shifting of CBDs to the sight they saw during the day, whereas history students discussed the role of Shanghai in trade and foreign relation, and discuss the role of different neighborhoods in old Shanghai in the context of changing times.
户外教学的价值在于促进学生将课内知识与课外实践相结合。这次徒步活动使学生们学会了如何从周围环境中捕捉细节，从认知、观察到分析，进而理解每个事物的历史、现状和未来。学习的过程正是如此，始于好奇心，终于探索精神。
The value of outdoor education lies in promoting students to integrate classroom knowledge with practical experiences outside of the classroom. This hiking activity has enabled students to learn how to capture details from the surrounding environment, from cognition, observation to analysis, and further understand the history, current situation, and future of each object. The process of learning is just like this, starting with curiosity and ending with an exploratory spirit.
