• Flag Football
  • Hi, we are Annie & Tiffany from Flag Football CCA.
  • It is a non-contact version of American football, where tackles are made by pulling off flags that all players wear on their hips.
  • The game retains the same inclusivity that makes American Football great, welcoming athletes of all abilities, genders, and levels of experience. Play is based on the same principles as the contact game with offensive teams having four attempts (downs) to reach a certain point on the field with the defensive team seeking to halt their progress.
  • We are enthusiastic and friendly players, and we welcome players of all levels.
  • Involvement in lots of events: e.g. Last year we went to different schools for matches and even played with ECUPL. A tournament among Shanghai’s international schools is going to be held this school year.
  • Contact Tiffany Guo。

• Peer Pao：学生辅导，互帮互助。请联系 Frank Zhou。

  • 这是一种非接触式的美式足球，所有球员都要扯下对方腰间挂着的旗子才能阻碍其进攻。
  • 该游戏保留了橄榄球的包容性，对各种能力、性别和经验水平的运动员友好。比赛基于与接触式比赛相同的原则，进攻队有四次机会进攻，防守队则设法阻止他们前进。
  • 我们是热情友好的业余选手，欢迎所有水平的同学加入。
  • 去年我们和一些高中还有华政进行了友谊赛。这个学年将会举办上海国际学校间的联赛。
  • 请联系 Tiffany Guo。

Psychology and TOK: Weekly Dose of TOK 每周知识论

• Is Psychology a Science? Of course! Psychologists use the scientific method, just like Physics!
• Then why don’t people debate over whether Physics, Chemistry, and Biology are sciences but only over Psychology?
• Some people say a feature of science is paradigm. A paradigm is a set of shared assumptions or basic set of principles shared by the scientific community.
• In Physics, some famous paradigms include:
  • Heliocentric view of the Solar System
  • Einstein's Relativistic Approach
  Most people reach consensus on them.
• But in Psychology, we have the:
  • Biological Approach
  • Cognitive Approach
  • Sociocultural Approach
  All three have completely different methodologies for the same psychological issue without sharing paradigms.

Artist of the Week 每周艺术家

Eva Hesse

Hesse was a German-born Jewish artist. Her family fled to the US under the rise of Nazism when she was a toddler. She started her career as a painter, experimenting with minimalism and abstract expressionism, filling her canvas with small, erratic abstractions. Marrying a sculptor in 1965, she moved back to Germany and lived in an industrial area. There, she became accustomed to manufacturing materials such as latex, plastics, and fiberglass, with which she created some of her most famous and influential sculptures. With her 3D work, Hesse became known as a pioneer then-up-and-coming Post-Minimalist movement. This is evidenced by her interest in extreme abstractions and industrial media, both of which are key to the Minimalist movement, and her simultaneous rejection of Minimalism's closed, polished geometric forms. To complete her work, Hesse undergoes often meticulous processes: for example, brushing latex onto more than 300m² of draping cheesecloth. Hesse's techniques created expressive pieces with dynamic forms and authentic characteristics, simultaneously simplistic and complex. She passed away due to a brain tumor in 1970 when she was just 34.

Exhibition of the Week 每周展览

Bodies of Water: The Shanghai Biennials
水体：第十三届上海双年展

• Date: 2020-11-10 – 2021-07-25
• Location: 上海当代艺术博物馆 PSA

First started in 1996, the Shanghai Biennials are the oldest Biennials of contemporary art in China. Functioning as a place of dialogue and display for artists from around the globe, it includes a main exhibition in the PSA, as well as multiple other portions that span the city.

Titled 水体 (Bodies of Water), the 13th Shanghai Biennale will advocate for processes of planetary re-alliance relying on transspecies collectivity. Exploring forms of fluid solidarity, the Biennale will convene artists to think beyond human-centered and nation-based narratives, connecting the discussions of bodies with those of the environment.

Chief Curator Andrés Jaque says: “From the depth and tempo of a breath to the evolution of an ecosystem, the Biennale will reflect on how collectivities are made tangible and bodied in wet-togetherness, exploring diverting forms of aqueousness. Beyond the confines of flesh and land, the curatorial proposal considers how discharging, breathing, transfusing, flushing, and decomposing are ways in which bodies exist together.”
