OMG! We did it. Of
all the candidates, only six received the award and won a one hundred thousand
TWD grant from the British Council Taiwan and Education Bureau of Taichung City
Government. All the sweat and tears going into this Skype Exchange Project
finally paid off.
Under the
framework of Identity and Belonging, we developed an action plan in the hope to
create an authentic environment for the students not only to use the language
but experience cultural differences. I cannot thank Akiko Kubo enough for her
determination and dedication to this project.
