  • New Fall 2013
    FALL 2013 NEWSLETTER A message from San Duanmu, CCS Interim Director, 2012-13 Dear CCS Community, ast year, two major changes took place at the College and the International Institute, which have affected CCS in various ways. First, initiated by the Provost’s Office, Dennison is being transformed, from a heavily used but unattractive teaching building to an exemplar, modern, and multicultural learning center, to which all units of II are scheduled to move, including CCS. LThe final plan is still in the works. For example, we do not know how much space or what kind of space CCS will have. On the other hand, there are exciting new opportunities. For example, the combination of offices, classrooms, research events, and social space in the same building will be a great improvement from the current situation. In addition, space for visitors and study/meeting areas will likely promote interac- tions among faculty, students, and visitors. The other major change is prompted by budget cuts at various levels, in particular the continued decrease in Title IV funds from the Department of Education, which many II centers reply on. In response, the College decided to implement a new staff structure for II that is sustainable even without Title IV funds. In the new structure, each center is left with one full-time staff person (in the case of CCS, it is Ena Schlorff), and everyone else is moved to ‘shared services’. Under special circumstances, a center may request to hire additional staff, with the center’s own money. During the transition, CCS had to make some adjustments.

  • THE CHINA INSTITUTE Dean Say’S Message the Year of the Sheep Is Said to Herald a Year of Promise and Prosperity, Kindness and Benevolence
    THE CHINA INSTITUTE Dean Say’s Message The Year of the Sheep is said to herald a year of promise and prosperity, kindness and benevolence. These are qualities long shared between CSUN’s China Institute and its many partners in China. Over the past 33 years the China Institute has cultivated strong and meaningful relationships with 67 Chinese institutions of higher education, and as a result scores of CSUN students have been awarded full scholarships to pursue their dreams of studying abroad at a versatile array of universities and technical schools. Beginning in the Fall semester, we will welcome a new faculty member who will join our China Studies program and further develop opportunities for our students to study Chinese language and culture. I want to take this opportunity to recognize and thank the China Institute, our Chinese higher education partners, and CSUN’s Tseng College of Graduate, International, and Midcareer Education for their tireless work in moving our students’ academic and career goals forward. And I want to wish everyone a most Dean Say and Dr. Su wish you all a happy, healthy and prosperous Year of the Sheep! successful Year of the Sheep!

  • The Creative and Expressive Arts in Education, Research and Therapy–Focus on China
    Creative Arts Educ Ther (2016) 2(1):3–28 DOI: 10.15534/CAET/2016/1/37 Colloquium: The Creative and Expressive Arts in Education, Research and Therapy–Focus on China 专栏报告：创造性和表达性艺术：教育、 研究和治疗---专注中国 Preface 前言 Stephen K. Levine The European Graduate School, Switzerland With these accounts from a diverse group of Chinese therapists, educators and research- ers, we initiate what we expect will become a series of regular reports from different countries and cultures in Asia. As the reader will see, the arts have always been a valued part of Chinese life. Thus there is a rich tradition to draw on in the formulation of new approaches to education, therapy and research. In addition, Western perspectives on these fields are becoming more well-known in China. The joining together of ancient traditions with modern methods has already produced a great many interesting results. In particular, the Chinese government has included the arts and art education within the core competencies that are required to reach the highest standard. Thus there is a substantial amount of governmental funding and support for the study and practice of the arts in both mainland China and Hong Kong. As a result, we can only expect greater participation and a higher level of training and practice in the future. It seems that there are differences between mainland China and Hong Kong in terms of the development of the arts in therapy, research and education. Western influences have penetrated HK to a greater extent, as might be expected from the special status of Hong Kong, its history and geography.

Abstract. Recently, Educational Drama has been a hot topic in English language teaching in China. Educational Drama originated in Europe and America, which has a history of nearly one hundred years in western countries. While compared with western countries, domestic Educational Drama only has 20 years. Hong Kong and Taiwan is earlier than the mainland to introduce Educational Drama. Educational Drama research has gone through the pre-research stage, the embryonic development stage, the exploratory growth stage and the vigorous development stage in China. This paper summarizes the research results of Educational Drama in China based on the development process, research content and research methods, in order to provide some guidance for the further development of dramatic teaching method in China. 1. Introduction Educational Drama refers to the teaching method with drama elements or techniques adopted in education.[1]In western countries, Educational Drama is regarded as a very effective teaching method to cultivate students' comprehensive quality and all-round development. In recent decades, domestic Educational Drama research literature has been increasing, which has attracted wide attention of educational scholars. At the 2018 National Education Conference, president Xi emphasized the needs to strengthen school's aesthetic education and build an education system that comprehensively cultivates morality, intelligence, physique, art and laboring capabilities.

Abramson Senior Supervisor Associate Professor Faculty of Business Administration ________________________________________ Dr. Andrew von Nordenflycht Second Reader Assistant Professor Faculty of Business Administration Date Approved: ________________________________________ ii ABSTRACT The Eliza Fashion School of Art (EFSA) is a fashion school in China founded by the fashion legend Eliza Wang in 2008. EFSA has five programs encompassing almost every aspect of the fashion industry, including modelling, fashion design, makeover design, movie & TV performance, and hospitality management. Because, from my point of view, modelling training is the core competency of EFSA, this paper’s strategic analysis focuses on the modelling section of this school. Utilizing Michael Porter’s 5 Forces analysis (Porter, 1979), my findings indicate that the modelling industry in China lacks differentiation, but has great potential. Hence, it is essential for EFSA to adopt a differentiation strategy to leverage its strengths on sensational experiences and expertise to maximize its profit.

Among the Chinese who studied there in the 1880s was Dr. Sun Yat-sen, whose name the hospital now bears. 2014 The Yale Center Beijing opens, providing a dedicated facility for Yale’s schools and programs to hold workshops, conferences, and leadership programs in Beijing. More than 150 Yale faculty members are currently pursuing a broad array of research, educational, and training activities in, and related to, China— with projects in more than 20 cities involving scores of Chinese institutions. 1999 The China Law Center is established by Yale Law School. Later renamed the China Center at Yale Law School, it undertakes teaching, research, and concrete projects with Chinese partners to help advance legal and policy reforms in China and to advance U.S.-China relations more generally. With offices at Peking University and Yale, the center provides expertise to assist in the drafting of Chinese laws and regulations and their implementation, and carries out dialogues and exchanges addressing wide-ranging issues of U.S.- China relations. 2001 The Peking-Yale Joint Center for Plant Molecular Genetics and Agro-Biotechnology opens at Peking University. It supports research in the field of basic biology in plant systems and applies this research to crop improvement. 2003 The Fudan-Yale Biomedical Research Center opens in Shanghai. The first research from China to be featured on the cover of Cell is from the lab.
