From the learning side, he will also share about the students’ understandings toward social issues from humanistic perspectives, and the knowledge of Service-Learning they learnt in Taiwan, including visiting the “Silver Hair’s Lodge”, interviewing an elderly wood-carver, and investigating developments of Salt Fields.| Period | 9 Mar 2020 |
