The traditional role of museums is to collect objects and materials of cultural, religious and historical importance, preserve them, research into them and present them to the public for the purpose of education and enjoyment. Today, museums have served as agents of change and development. They mirror events in society and become instruments of progress by calling attention to actions and events that will encourage development in the society. They are part of the bigger communities that they serve and reach out to every group in the society. Education is critical for development. Education that is devoid of the cultures of the people in the society is empty and incomplete. It is only the museum that has the capacity and the ability to impart cultural education effectively as it houses the tools and materials for doing so in its collections. In SUIS, museums enrich the educational process by exposing students to history in a positive way. They assist our future generations to understand and appreciate their history and culture and take pride in the achievements of their ancestors.
3月27日上午，协和双语万源校区初中部刘主任来到中国航海博物馆，与博物馆方面签订了为期三年馆校合作协议，为协和万源初中的博物馆学习项目中又添一座国家级博物馆。
Tips：上海中国航海博物馆是国家级航海博物馆，是重要的综合性科普教育基地和公众科技文化交流平台，承担着弘扬航海文化,传播航海知识的使命，是国家海洋强国战略和“一带一路”倡议的重要文化宣传阵地，其独特的展览和教育活动为学校提供了丰富的教育资源，适合学生团体开展层次丰富的活动。
航海博物馆以“航海”为主题，“博物”为基础，分设航海历史、船舶、航海与港口、海事与海上安全、海员、军事航海六大展馆，渔船与捕鱼、航海体育与休闲两个专题展区，并建有天象馆、4D影院、儿童活动中心，涵盖文物收藏、学术研究、社会教育、陈列展示等功能。
航海博物馆
3月27日下午，我们全体七年级同学来到了航海博物馆进行参观学习。
一进入馆内我们便可以看到一艘明代福船，在讲解员老师的讲解下知道了福船名称的由来，同时也意外的知道了原来这艘船，就是按照我们七年级历史课中学习过的郑和下西洋时所乘坐的“宝船”的造型一比一建造的。
在一楼的航海历史馆参观的过程中，我们仿佛走过了数千年的岁月。从羊皮筏子到如今的巨轮，我们惊叹于先人勇于开拓创新的精神，了解了中国航海技术的起源与演变的过程。
在船舶馆参观的过程中，我们看到了许多现代船舶的结构与设备。其中船舶馆入口处的几个船结构给我留下了深刻的印象，让我深深感受到了数学学科与物理学科在生活中应用的魅力，如：破冰船的船首底部特别的“窄”，倾斜的角度也有讲究，这是为了船只能够更好地在有浮冰的区域更加快速安全地破冰前行。而油罐船的船首的底部就特别的“宽”，这是为了船只能够更加平稳得在水中行驶，降低侧翻的风险。
在二楼的航海与港口博物馆中，我看到了很多的保障船舶航行的各类仪器，古代的“牵星板”，近代的六分仪、八分仪、罗经等，现在的无线电导航设备雷达、GPS卫星导航设备等。它们的设计与使用无一不与数学息息相关，几何学、代数学、数学分析……
虽然只有短短的一个下午，却让同学们受益良多。大家都在趣味中度过了一下午的学习，为自己的“知识库”增添了新的储备。
Multiple studies show the students who participate in museum visits become better learners and more flexible thinkers — skills that are crucial for success in the changing world. One afternoon has helped demonstrate the positive impact of museum visits and art education on the development of students’ literacy, critical thinking and problem-solving abilities.
