Thoughts and feedback:

This lecture is really honored to have the Internet celebrity Maya come and share with you. Originally, this lecture was just to enhance our knowledge of designing cross-field lesson plans and to better understand the connotation of fantasy creation. I didn’t expect to be able to listen to it. Learn about Teacher Cai’s very special life experience, especially his touching process of chasing his dreams.

        The Maya culture that he loved since childhood was rarely studied by anyone in Taiwan, so he had to explore it on his own and was questioned. However, he still chose to be a pioneer and take a path that few Taiwanese people took. Knowing what his dream is, he will persevere and work hard. Although the process is difficult, he still keeps preparing. He said: "Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared." Because he continues to study Mayan culture, although he is not A student from the Department of Archeology of National Taiwan University, who does not have a good command of English, was able to get the opportunity to participate in archeology with students from prestigious foreign universities in Besili. He shared a lot of his experience working with students from Cambridge University in Besili and told us about it. What your interests are is really important. Taiwan’s education seems to lack opportunities for children to explore their interests, and children don’t know how to choose what they love. However, no matter what you do, you will definitely encounter difficulties and bottlenecks. Only by Only passion can persist to the end, so Teacher Cai’s experience sharing allows us to bring it into the course to encourage students who love creation.
