Active Learning Project

“Never fear to say your dream out loud before it comes true.”
— by a participant of Active Learning Project for 2020 Spring semester

Participants in the past have designed their learning theme, such as Biomimicry, for the Active Learning Project. After one semester of active learning and peer exchange, participants not only gained greater knowledge but also became more sophisticated in time management and project execution skills, thereby successfully achieving their learning milestone.
The Active Learning Project accepts various learning proposals. It encourages students to seek solutions to a problem in the field that have captured their attention, and through the process, to discover the treasures of knowledge, partnership, and life.
