UW Institutions' Engagement with Chinese Unive TO: Regent Loftus FROM: Jess Lathrop, Office of the Board of Regents SUBJECT: UW Institutions’ Engagement with Chinese Universities DATE: May 3, 2011 Last week, you asked for information regarding UW institutions’ engagement with Chinese universities. Specifically, you asked for the number of UW System students in China, the number of Chinese students studying at UW institutions, and the Chinese universities that UW institutions are working with to serve students. UW Students Studying in China Staff from UW System’s Office of Academic, Faculty and Global Programs contacted each campus to request information regarding the number of students studying in China, as this information is not centrally collected or maintained. Individual campuses reported back with the following information regarding UW students studying in China: UW Institutions Number of Number of Chinese Universities Type of Experience Students Students in 2010-11 in 2009-10 La Crosse 8 4 Guangxi Normal University Individual study-abroad Hong Kong City University Shanghai Normal University Peking University Madison Not 143 Not provided Not provided available Milwaukee 32 32 Peking University Individual study-abroad; Chongqing University four faculty-led business or language/ cultural programs to multiple Chinese cities Oshkosh 1 12 Ningbo University Individual study-abroad; short-term field geology program (students not enrolled at Chinese university) Platteville 3 1 Guangxi University Individual study-abroad City University of Hong Kong Nanjing University Stout 14 11 Guangdong University of Short-term faculty Foreign Studies sponsored trips Superior 2 Not Shanghai University Individual study-abroad provided Chengdu Whitewater 2 9 Not provided Individual study-abroad Source: Study Abroad Directors, UW Institutions Chinese Students Studying at UW System Institutions Staff from UW-System’s Office of Policy Analysis and Research provided the following information regarding the number of Chinese students studying at UW institutions: UW Institution Fall 2010 Fall 2009 Eau Claire 72 37 Green Bay 12 4 La Crosse 172 110 Madison 1,340 1,090 Milwaukee 154 25 Oshkosh 22 15 Parkside 15 8 Platteville 4 33 River Falls 8 12 Stevens Point 104 87 Stout 24 13 Superior 56 50 Whitewater 25 19 Colleges 5 1 Total 2,013 1,504 Source: UW System OPAR Types of Programs and Partnering Chinese Universities At the request of UW System’s Office of Academic Affairs, the Office of Operations Review and Audit conducted a survey to identify the various international programs offered by UW institutions. This survey was conducted in the fall of 2010, with thirteen institutions responding to the survey. Although survey results and conclusions have not yet been finalized, it appears that more international programs and activities are offered in China than any other country. In addition, China is the fastest growing area of new program development. Of the 13 institutions responding to the survey, 64 separate partnering Chinese institutions or organizations were identified. Among the UW institutions providing information, UW-Eau Claire identified the highest number of Chinese institutions/organizations with 26 partners. A complete list of partnering institutions is included in the attachment. The most frequently offered programs by UW institutions include short-term international experiences, study abroad programs, student exchanges, and international recruiting, as shown in the table below.

  • A Preliminary Analysis of Chinese-Foreign Higher Education Partnerships in Guangdong, China∗
    US-China Education Review B, March 2019, Vol. 9, No. 3, 79-89 doi: 10.17265/2161-6248/2019.03.001 D D AV I D PUBLISHING Stay Local, Go Global: A Preliminary Analysis of Chinese-Foreign Higher Education Partnerships in Guangdong, China∗ Wong Wei Chin, Yuan Wan, Wang Xun United International College (UIC), Zhuhai, China Yan Siqi London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), London, England As China moves toward a market system after the “reforms and opening-up” policy since the late 1970s, internationalization is receiving widespread attention at many academic institutions in mainland China. Today, there are 70 Sino-Foreign joint institutions (namely, “Chinese-Foreign Higher Education Partnership”) presently operating within the Chinese nation. Despite the fact that the majority of these joint institutions have been developed since the 1990s, surprisingly little work has been published that addresses its physical distribution in China, and the prospects and challenges faced by the faculty and institutions on an operational level. What are the incentives of adopting both Western and Chinese elements in higher education? How do we ensure the higher education models developed in the West can also work well in mainland China? In order to answer the aforementioned questions, the purpose of this paper is therefore threefold: (a) to navigate the current development of internationalization in China; (b) to compare conventional Chinese curriculum with the “hybrid” Chinese-Foreign education model in present Guangdong province, China; and

  • Bo ZHANG Henan University
    Bo ZHANG Henan University Abstract: In today’s college English teaching, there are often many kinds of diffi- cult problems. Teachers generally attach importance to language education and despise traditional cultural education in the process of teaching. This kind of edu- cation is not conducive to the widespread of traditional culture in China, and hin- ders the inheritance and continuation of traditional culture. In the process of histor- ical development, China’s traditional culture has a long history. If the teaching of English affects the popularization of traditional culture in domestic colleges and universities, it will be a behavior of loss and gain. Therefore, this paper aims to study the heritage of traditional culture in higher English education, and analyzes the existing problems and solutions. Key words: Higher English; Education and teaching; English teaching; Traditional culture DOI: 10.12184/wspiedWSP2516-250006.20190303 With the continuous development of science and technology and the increas- ing economic level in China, the traditional culture of our country has gradually played its own cultural value in the world cultural stage, and has a very profound and extensive impact. But at present, there is still a phenomenon that the education of our country pays attention to foreign cultures and ignoring local cultures. In or- der to improve the incorrect values and ideas of the new generation of teenagers, it is necessary to integrate traditional culture into the teaching of higher English and allow students to continuously understand the unique advantages of the traditional culture in the process of learning English. In this process, teachers can also inte- grate traditional culture and higher English knowledge, so that students can con- About the author: Bo ZHANG (1980-05), male, Han, Zhengzhou, Henan Province, As- sociate Professor, Postgraduate, Research on Cross-cultural Communication.

  • Urban Project
    Urban Development Planning/Needs Assessment Collaborators: Guangxi University of Technology, Departments of Foreign Languages and Social Work Guangxi University, Nanning, School of Public Administration Pingxiang Mayor and City government Photo Courtesy of Field School Participants The purpose of this project was to illustrate objective, systematic, and representative community needs and assets assessment methodology to Chinese social science and public administration students and faculty; city and regional planning staff and officials; as well as U.S. graduate and undergraduate students. The objective of data collection was to help inform local planning and policy decisions and improve responsiveness of government, give some voice to local resident concerns, and serve as a pilot study for potential comparative urban studies (such as U.S. versus China perceived community needs). The urban project was planned to be implemented in the city of Liuzhou, but like the rural project, the urban development project was delayed by local officials so the research site was moved to Pingxiang and included the collaboration of students and faculty from Guangxi University in Nanning. Some of the findings include: • The only problem approaching a moderate level of concern was unemployment. • All the others were identified by most residents as “not a problem” or a small problem. • When asked what areas of the community needs the most improvement, the responses varied. The most common were public safety/security and street lighting, followed by the environment and maintenance of public property. • Asking about local services resulted in more critical responses: residents were only moderately satisfied with all the city services and neighborhood resources.

Abstract: Tea polyphenols (TPs) are the general compounds of natural polyhydroxyphenols extracted in tea. Although a large number of studies have shown that TPs have obvious neuroprotective and neuro repair effects, they are limited due to the low bioavailability in vivo. However, TPs can act indirectly on the central nervous system by affecting the “microflora–gut–brain axis”, in which the microbiota and its composition represent a factor that determines brain health. Bidirectional communication between the intestinal microflora and the brain (microbe–gut–brain axis) occurs through a variety of pathways, including the vagus nerve, immune system, neuroendocrine pathways, and bacteria-derived metabolites. This axis has been shown to influence neurotransmission and behavior, which is usually associated with neuropsychiatric disorders. In this review, we discuss that TPs and their metabolites may provide benefits by restoring the imbalance of intestinal microbiota and Citation: Zhang, Z.; Zhang, Y.; Li, J.; that TPs are metabolized by intestinal flora, to provide a new idea for TPs to play a neuroprotective Fu, C.; Zhang, X.
