The EEA crew believe that critical thinking is a crucial skill in the era of information explosion.The average person is exposed to countless pieces of information on a daily basis, however not all are completely true.

Reading & Textual Analysis:
The Neverending Story
Guided reading exercise was carried in our classrooms. We have led and encouraged students to analyse authorial choices and interpret valuable meaning behind the work.
Day3
Free Discussion:
How do you manage time?
We have discovered that: the students arbitrarily spend their off-time as a "complement" of the strict supervision at school to "balance" their stress.Hence in our discussions,we tried to involive them to become more active of their self-management, encouraging them to foresee their life after they graudate and have to live without a "supervisor".
