Research and Education Policy

For the time being, I plan to continue researching consensus-generating discussion skills and developing and evaluating XingBoard.
Our educational policy is "student-centered." As members of a learning community, both teachers and students aim to build learning outcomes such as knowledge and insight through collaborative activities such as thinking, researching, and speaking up.

Message

I welcome ambitious students to take full advantage of the various learning resources available, including from me, to broaden their horizons.
