Teaching About Taiwan: Fulbrighters Sharing Their Stories In the summer of 2023, 16 faculty from across the United States representing a broad array of disciplines participated in a Fulbright-Hays seminar in Taiwan. They toured the island and participated in many cultural exchanges while learning about Taiwan's politics, economics, social issues, educational system, and biodiversity. In this session, some of these faculty will discuss their experiences and how those affected their teaching. The session will include breakout rooms for economics, education, political science, and other fields to allow for more focused discussions. |
