Email: [email protected] †These authors contributed equally. ABSTRACT This paper reviews the differences of classroom interactions between China and America. Effective classroom interactions play a nonnegligible role in teaching and learning processes, which can enable the class to be active and innovative. Scholars have also managed to classify different types of classroom interactions by their characteristics such as different roles played by teachers and students. However, categorizing the different modes in classroom interactions between two or more countries has not been researched widely and seriously. Therefore, this paper attempted to discuss the difference along with their advantages and disadvantages. By reviewing various relevant academic articles and analyzing class videos from China and America, it is found that on one hand, Chinese classroom interactions are plain and unitary, which is harmful to the development of the active and critical thinking for students, but it has a positive influence on the efficiency and the range of teaching process- these could result from the history and culture of collectivism and Confucianism as well as the educational conditions.

Abstract The foreign students’ education has a great influence on the internationalization of higher education and the reputation of university. Since the 21st century, the foreign students’ education has developed rapidly and has been extending continuously in Shandong Province. However, a series of problems still exist, such as the imperfect of the specialty structure and curriculum, which have impeded the sustainable development of the foreign students’ education. This article would carry on the discussion about the current situation and existing problems of the foreign students education in Shandong Province from the following aspects: the scale, the construction of specialized curriculum system and the management, etc. And based on that, we put forward feasible countermeasures, in order to offer certain reference to the development of foreign students’ education. Keywords: internationalization, Shandong Province, the foreign students’ education 1.

Summer Program Handbook [Pdf]
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION Chinese Flagship Qingdao Summer Program Level D (OSU Pre-Flagship Program): June 15 – August 14, 2009 The Pre-Flagship Level D program is designed to bridge the gap from beginning advanced level Chinese to true advanced level and from undergraduate level work to graduate level work. This Summer Program is not a traditional, classroom-based approach to learning Chinese. While attending regular classes is an important part of the program, community practice, cultural exchanges, and extracurricular activities are equally important for success in the Pre-Flagship Program. This program stresses “performing.” In other words, instead of memorizing and reciting, you will be presenting, debating, and interviewing in the real world environments. You will learn how to build relationships and behave in culturally appropriate ways to get things done. Your ultimate goal should be to become a functional and meaningful participant in Chinese Society. The 2009 program will be centered on US-China relations with four main themes: economics and trade, the Taiwan issue, Chinese interpretation of US intensions, and the dynamics between basic values and international relations. The nine-week program breaks down into four two-week projects plus one week long field research trip in the near by area. The presentation at the end of the two-week project will be done in a formal environment with appropriate attire and with a non-academic Chinese audience. Presentations must be well organized, clearly delivered, and reflect two weeks of quality work. The final two weeks of the summer program will require students to begin researching their MA thesis ideas.

Qingdao University of Science and Technology Tsinghua University
Qingdao University of Science and Technology Tsinghua University Welcome to ISMNT7 and IWHTE The Seventh International Symposium on Micro and Nanotechnology will be held in Qingdao, China, from April 26th to 28th in 2019. Nanotechnology, information technology and biotechnology, which bring the potential of lasting technological innovation and the fundamental changes in social infrastructure and lifestyle, constitute the most innovative technology areas. Micro/nano thermal engineering is one of the most important research aspects of the above emerging technologies. The International Symposium on Micro and Nano Technology (ISMNT) started from 2004 are a series of meetings sponsored by the Pacific Center of Thermal-Fluids Engineering (PCTFE). The previous six ISMNTs were held in: 2004 in Honolulu (USA), 2006 in Hsinchu (CTW), 2009 in Seoul (RoK), 2013 in Shanghai (China), 2015 in Calgary (Canada) and 2017 in Fukuoka (Japan). This symposium will bring together international researchers and engineers focusing on micro and nanoscale technology in energy conversion and transport in a variety of applications. It will provide a forum for the presentation of state-of-the-art researches and opportunities for technical interactions among participants. Together with information technology and biotechnology, micro/nanoscale technology forms one of the three axes of innovative technologies. These technologies are important because they have the potential to bring about a discontinuous innovation in technology which results in fundamental changes in our social infrastructure and life pattern. We look forward to a productively and intellectually rewarding ISMNT7 and IWHTE, and wish that you will leave Qingdao with new insights, ideas and friends, and that you will return soon to Qingdao, one of the most extraordinary and beautiful cities in the world.

As start-up fund, the German government invested 600,000 marks, and the Chinese government 40,000 marks. On September 12, 1909, German- Chinese College was officially opened. The first President was Georg Keiper, German Geologist and Navy Officer. Due to the war, German-Chinese College closed in 1914. In 1922, in order to continue higher education, the Northern Government intends to set up a comprehensive university in Qingdao. In 1924, Private Qingdao University was founded, disciplines included arts, science, law, business, engineering, medicine, agriculture, and forestry. In 1929, National Qingdao University was founded on the basis of Private Qingdao University, adding literature, education, mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology and other disciplines. In 1932, National Qingdao University was renamed as National Shandong University. In 1937, the Sino-Japanese War broke out. In 1938, the school was closed. The war ended in 1945, and National Shandong University resumed in Qingdao, merging Qingdao Medical School and its affiliated hospitals.
