In order to promote the internationalization of CityU and to develop overseas international cooperation and exchanges and improve the teaching quality, under the leadership of Vice Rector Kong Fanqing, some teachers and employees under Quality Migrant Admission Scheme of CityU went to Seoul to participate in the Teaching Mobile Workshop from June 29 to July 4. Vice Rector Kong Fanqing led the delegation to visit academic institutions such as Kyung Hee University, Hongik University, and Ewha Women's University to study the unique concepts, facilities, methods of Korean universities, and to explore the academic research and exchange, teacher training, teaching reform and innovation, postgraduate and postdoctoral training, teaching management and administrative management, teaching rules and regulations, quality examination, teaching and scientific research and academic activities. The delegation held a heated discussion and exchanged experience, which was informative and beneficial. The delegation visited such famous historical and cultural landmarks as the border between North and South Korea, Cheong Wa Dae, the War Memorial of Korea, and the National Folk Museum of Korea, fully understanding and experiencing the unique history, culture and regional characteristics of South Korea. Kyung Hee University conducted in-depth exchanges with CityU on issues such as teacher training, student training, teacher exchanges, student exchanges, joint academic seminar, mutual employment of part-time and special professors and joint training of graduate students, and further discussed the construction of tourism, hotel management, business management, cultural tourism and other related programs. The two sides reached broad consensus on further advancing various cooperation matters. The unique history, regional culture and customs of South Korea made the delegation deeply understand the mutual influence, connection and difference between Chinese and Korean cultures, and feel the profoundness of Chinese culture as well as the national characteristics of Korean culture and education. Teachers who teach such disciplines as tourism, cultural industry and language studies expressed that they would combine these feelings into their teaching, research and reform. |
