            Q1: How do you encourage your students to enter the field of biology?<br />
 +
            A:  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Students studying biology shouldn’t be disconnected from nature, especially those studying ecology. That’s why I often take my students out to the field in addition to giving traditional lectures. I also like to teach in an interdisciplinary way.  For instance, I’ll often cooperate with the geology teacher, leading students to study organisms living in intertidal areas. This type of cooperation is dependent upon the subject matter at hand and the other teachers’ interests, of course. Through these field excursions, students often gain a deeper understanding and appreciation towards our environment.<br />
 +
            &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; In Yilan, we teach Applied Biosystems, a book regarding agriculture and biotechnology. During class, I encourage discussion among students and hands-on activities. For example, we have cooperated with the local farmers to let students participate in agricultural activities.<br />
 +
            &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Throughout the student’s sophomore and junior years, biology class is more focused on exploration and discovery; but during their senior year, in preparation for the college entrance exam, we follow the textbook more closely. The school takes into account the needs of different students and recommends them not to take extra lessons outside of school (e.g. cram school).
 +
        </p>
 +
        <p>
 +
            Q2: How does the Information Age affect your teaching style?<br />
 +
            A: &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; We often assign research projects to students, but many of them only know how to search in Wikipedia. In many cases, a student already has an opinion in mind then goes online to search for evidence that confirms their opinion, often ignoring other evidence with different perspectives. For example, one of the research questions asks whether alcohol can kill viruses. During the first week, many students confidently said “yes”, but after some hints, they usually come up with a different answer. Multimedia use depends on the lesson at hand; some teachers use PowerPoint presentations to enhance the visual effect on specific chapter, while others choose to play a Youtube video to help students understand the lesson material.<br />

        </p>
 +
 +
        <p>
 +
            Q3: iGEM is closely related to synthetic biology. What is your opinion on synthetic biology?<br />
 +
            A: &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; For many high school students, synthetic biology is a long way off. They only learn about the concept of synthetic biology during their senior year. I’m personally not in favor of teaching university material to high school students.  However, I am very happy to see students go deep into research if they show interest in synthetic biology.  The philosophy of synthetic biology: it allows one to play God and create lots of organisms using simple tools, almost like the putting legos together.
 +
        </p>
 +
        <p>
 +
            Q4: Science and Humanities<br />
 +
            A: &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Biology can relate to lots of other issues: plastic waste in the ocean, agriculture and food safety… etc. I require students to participate in DFC: Design For Change Challenge. Looking around, students may feel disconnected from the society, but that is not actually the case. Through DFC, students can realize that they too have the power to change the ones around them, indirectly changing society in the process. For instance, a former student researched on the ingredients contained in each brand of instant noodles, compiling them into a table; allowing consumers to quickly and conveniently check for themselves. Another student did community service at a remote town, teaching the local children new scientific discoveries and playing little games etc. Some students found their direction in life through these activities. Once you step out of your comfort zone, the resources are there for you to use.

            &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Mr. HUANG not only teaches students the basic subject but inspires them to love their environment and community by introducing them the field.  We found KAP, knowledge, attitude, and practice, on Mr. HUANG.  He delivers the knowledge in a brand new way to students, changing their attitude on biology and the environment.  Last but not least, they do DFC to actually practice their thought.  Through this kind of education, children would build a strong connection with nature and be inspired to protect her.

Abstract:
     We met Prof. Lin, Y.-R. to discuss about the interaction between science and agricultural workers. Prof. Lin mentioned that a researcher has responsibility to spray knowledge to society in a simple and clear way and help they to do the right decision. She focused on helping farmers to grow food in a more efficient and safer way for over a decade. We learned a great attitude of being a scientist from Prof. Lin.5555

Content:
    The science can be divided into three, basic science, theory science, and apply science. Among these three, the apply science take the responsibility of connection between science and society most of the time. Our job is to cooperate with Agricultural Research and Extension Station to educate the farmers about latest knowledge. Scientists often cooperate with farmers too. Take the latest technology, Marker-assisted Selection, as an example, it is hard to discuss to the farmers. Thus, the Agricultural Research and Extension Station helps to build up connection between researcher and farmer.

     The lack of knowledge in something would cause irrational rejection since human being is fear of uncertain things. Most of people in Taiwan think that the synthetic biology is dangerous to our environment. The synthetic biology is seen as Genetically Engineered Organism(GMO) by most of the people. Thus, our job is to promote the correct concept and knowledge. As long as they have knowledge, they would choose the right decision.

     The education is long-term process. We have done several things for knowledge promotion for Taiwan agriculture development. First, we opened courses of Technology of Agriculture for administrative staff in Council of Agriculture in order to keep up with the latest technology around the world. Second, we educate farmers. We are like an interpreter to translate difficult science research into simple language that farmer can understand. Last but not least, we teach our student to practice what they have learned and pay back to the society.
