MIdS CMU Contemporary Chinese Language Teaching Students Participate in Study Visit and Exchange Program at Yunnan Normal University, People's Republic of China
On April 1, 2025, under the leadership of Dr. Jirapipat Thanyaphongphat, Chair of Contemporary Chinese Language Teaching Program at Multidisciplinary and Interdisciplinary School (MIdS), Chiang Mai University, a group of students from the Contemporary Chinese Language Teaching Program embarked on a study visit and student exchange program. They were warmly welcomed by Prof. Wang Xiucheng, Dean, School of International Chinese Studies at Yunnan Normal University, along with university administrators, faculty members, and mentors who will be supervising the students during their internship. This initiative is part of a student development program taking place from April 1 to April 30, 2025.
The program aims to enhance students' experience and teaching skills through exchange activities and hands-on practice in an international educational environment. It also provides an opportunity to explore effective teaching methodologies and gain insights into educational concepts in a global context. The program emphasizes modern teaching techniques and the application of information technology in education, aligning with the evolving trends in contemporary education.
Additionally, this initiative seeks to develop students' potential, equipping them with the adaptability and expertise needed to become educators capable of applying their knowledge in diverse educational settings. It also strengthens academic collaboration between Chiang Mai University and Yunnan Normal University while promoting the Master of Arts in Contemporary Chinese Teaching program to universities in China. This effort aligns with Chiang Mai University's 13th Development Plan and the signed memorandum of understanding, reinforcing international partnerships (Global Partnership) and advancing research and academic collaboration.
