11月13日，第34届全国中学生数学冬令营正式在成都七中林荫校区拉开帷幕，来自五湖四海的学子汇聚蓉城，参加为期5天的中国数学奥林匹克竞赛（简称CMO）。康德教育集团作为本次冬令营的赞助单位，很荣幸受邀参加开幕式并见证了这一历史时刻。
9点整，在庄严肃穆的国歌声中，第34届全国中学生数学冬令营开幕式正式开始。在开幕式中，成都七中易国栋校长发表欢迎辞，并在欢迎辞中特别感谢了四川省成都七中教育发展基金会以及康德教育集团对本次盛会的鼎力支持。随后，成都市人大常委会副主任仰协女士、四川省教育厅崔昌宏副厅长、中国数学奥林匹克委员会副主任杨新民先生以及营员代表成都七中景虹浩同学分别发表讲话，欢迎来自国内外32个代表队，共计388名数学英才来到成都，同场竞赛。
在开幕式尾声，来自成都七中的学生和教师代表为所有来宾献上了一场兼具四川特色与国际特色的艺术演出，使所有参赛选手在赛前放松精神，以更饱满的精神状态迎接接下来的比赛。开幕式结束后，所有参赛队伍来到操场上集合并拍下合照，记录下他们人生中这重要的一天。希望所有的参赛学子在比赛中取得满意的成绩！
康德教育助力此次竞赛旨在基础科学杰出人才培养。康德从20多年的国际教育经验中总结出：中国学生在数学和科学等科目上具备极大竞争优势。集团旗下的康德研究院独立研发了国际通用课程体系（Cogdel International General Curriculum, CIG），包括数学、物理等在内的7个课题组，将7个学科的中方学业水平考试的内容和要求与美国对应学科AP考试和SAT II考试的内容及要求进行了整合，形成了一整套既能对接中方学业水平考试同时又能对接AP考试的教学大纲和教材。目前，康德国际通用课程体系双语版（中英文）的教学大纲和教材已在成都七中国际部、武汉六中国际部、苏州国际预科学校、重庆双语学校使用。
同时，康德各校区纷纷设立了各类国际数理竞赛考点，如：滑铁卢大学数学竞赛、美国AMC数学竞赛、“物理杯”美国高中物理竞赛等并鼓励学生积极参与海外数学竞赛。在平时的教学中，开设专门竞赛指导课程。从报名前的常规性指导到竞赛前的集训，从周五的校本课程到周天的晚自习集中训练，均设置了一套完整的课程体系。参与竞赛能够让学生感受到不同文化国度对数理的理解和学习要求，同时体验原滋原味的海外考试，锻炼自身逻辑思维能力，激发对数理的兴趣和热爱。优秀的竞赛成绩也帮助学生收获了来自顶尖海外名校的录取通知书。

2. 中国数学奥林匹克
中国数学奥林匹克 (简称CMO) 起源于全国中学生数学冬令营。1985年，由北京大学、南开大学、复旦大学和中国科技大学四所大学提议，中国数学会决定，自1986年起每年举行。CMO每年吸引来自各省、自治区、直辖市全国高中数学联赛的优胜者，以及香港、澳门、俄罗斯、新加坡等代表队参加，目前成为中国中学生最高级别、最具规模、最有影响的数学竞赛。
On 13th November, the 34th National High School Mathematics Winter Camp kicked off in Chengdu No.7 High School Linyin Campus. Cogdel Education Group sponsored the winter camp and it was an honor to be here to witness the opening ceremony.
At 9 a.m., the opening ceremony started with China National Anthem, and following with Chengdu No.7 High School Headmaster Yi Guodong’s welcome speech. In the speech, he expressed the sincere thanks for Cogdel Education Group’s support in this winter camp. After the welcome speech, the Deputy Director of Chengdu Municipal People’s Congress Ms. Yang Xie, the Deputy Director of Sichuan Education Department Mr. Cui Changhong and the Deputy Director of Chinese Mathematical Society-Mathematical Olympic Committee Mr. Yang Xinmin all had the speeches to welcome 388 participants from 32 cities.
In the end of the opening ceremony, the representatives from Chengdu No.7 High School expressed their welcome by talent show. After the talent show, all the participants took the group photo in order to memorize this important moment.
The reason why Cogdel Education Group sponsored this winter camp was to cultivate talents in Basic Science. With more than 20 years of experience in international education, Cogdel realized that Chinese students have strong ability in Mathematics and Science. Cogdel Academy developed Cogdel International General Curriculum (CIG) which included 7 majors, such as Mathematics and Physics. Cogdel combined Chinese Huikao with AP and SAT II, and then conducted CIG which could be recognized by education authorities at home and aboard. CIG was applied in Chengdu No.7 High School, Wuhan No.6 High School, Suzhou International Foundation School and Chongqing No.1 International Studies School.
In addition, Cogdel encouraged students to participate in international Mathematics Competitions, such as Waterloo Mathematics Competition and American Mathematics Competition. In daily teaching, Cogdel organized guidance courses for the participants which helped the participants to reach better results. Students who got the excellent results from these competitions also helped them to work better in their future universities applications.
