Like it Taida

This course is designed primarily for first-year foreign students although it also opens to interested local students to experience Taiwanese culture together. This lecture opens with a self-introduction and group assignment. Students then will be divided into a group of five, one local plus four foreign, to visit different locations every other week starting March 14. The point of interests may include but not limited to night markets, temples, memorial halls, NTU museums, handcraft and cultural centers, ecoparks, and historic relicts in Daan district. Each group needs to send their reports to the instructor three days prior to the five-minute presentation in the next meeting. The instructor will then summarize and conclude the reports in the second-hour lecture.
