The Governor’s School of South Carolina at the College of Charleston is a four-week residential summer program designed for academically and intellectually gifted high school students. Established in 1976, the Governor’s School provides special academic opportunities for a limited number of rising high school seniors who have demonstrated exceptional academic achievement, intellectual potential, and creativity. The Governor’s School is conducted on the historic College of Charleston campus and typically takes place during a four-week period from mid-June to the first week of July. Due to State budget cuts the South Carolina Governor's Scholar Program was cancelled. The last class to graduate with the distinction of South Carolina Governor's Scholar was the summer program of 2008. ==Courses== Each student enrolls in a Subject Concentration and a Global Issues course to be taught for the duration of the program. Subject Concentration courses include classes, laboratories, workshops and supervised individual study in a variety of areas which include (a) the physical and natural sciences, (b) the humanities, and (c) the social sciences. In the Subject Concentration, students engage in intensive work which includes both exposure to current theory and extensive “hands-on” experience or fieldwork. Global Issues courses are the second component of the program and include classes, debates and guest speakers. The Global Issues courses are designed to give students the opportunity to think critically about the major global issues facing our increasingly interdependent world. Each course will approach many common global issues from different perspectives – political science, anthropology, geography, history, psychology, etc. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Governor's School of South Carolina at the College of Charleston」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
