港校面试小技巧及常见问题
高考结束,香港各所高校在北京,上海,广州,深圳等地的面试陆陆续续的进行,特殊形式的面试帮助这些香港的学校在内地的众多高考学生中选拨出适合香港教育的学子。港校面试绝对是申请中非常重要的环节,除了自身的硬件条件之外,还可以怎样吸引面试官?港校面试有哪些小技巧呢?
港校面试的一些小技巧,具体如下:
1.不要尝试去支配整个讨论。
虽然鼓励学生去做一个Leader,但一个好的leader并不是自说自话发号施令的,而是去引导大家各抒己见,要学会聆听他人的观点。
2.给害羞的同学发言的机会。
如果看到有同学没能找到机会讲话,可以邀请Ta发言,给Ta发表观点的机会,但也要注意哦,也不要强迫别人说话。
3不要在一开始就把讨论的框架定死。
更期望看到大家在讨论中碰撞出新的火花,在别人的观点之上构建自己新的想法。除非你很确定某一个固定的框架有助于大家更好地交流观点,否则不要一开始就把框架定死。
4.重点不是发表你的意见,而是在交流中使得讨论更深入和丰富。
如果仅仅是想要听你的观点,那么可以进行一对一面试;但期望看到的,是大家齐心协力,在讨论中将问题展开,深入。
5.不要过于强势也不要过于害羞。
不要随意打断别人的发言,等别人讲完,找到合适的时机才开始自己的发言。如果直到最后你都没能说上几句话,面试官会对你进行提问,给你机会展示自己,但这样恐怕不是非常有利的情况。
6.在Critical Analysis中多层次思考。
可仔细思考什么是Critical Analysis,以从多个角度,多个方面,纵向横向分析思考问题,以求达到更全面和多样的分析。
