In the school

The meeting with teachers went smooth. I briefly explained my study to the teachers, who kindly squeezed 10 minutes from their busy schedule for me. There are 4 second-grade and 5 fifth-grade classes in the school.

One of the teachers approached me after the brief meeting. She was feeling frustrated with the fact that students' academic performances have been dropping rapidly every year. Taiwan has undergone a series of educational reform movements since 1994, and ever since, such kind of comments have been commonly made among teachers in Taiwan.

I took a tour in the school.
