STEM education for global citizenship: Addressing bilingual (Taiwanese:English) teaching challenges using innovative digital technologies.

该网络项目使英国伦敦大学学院和台湾台大的研究人员能够更加紧密地合作，建立一系列学术交流活动。一开始，我们将召开一系列研讨会和讲习班，在那里我们将展示我们现有的研究项目，并相互试验技术，以便我们更好地了解彼此的背景。我们将从伦敦大学学院开发的ScratchMaths和Cornerstone Maths课程开始，我们的台大同事认为这些课程最有希望支持台湾STEM教学的目标，并且适合双语教学环境。南洋理工大学将利用他们的云课堂平台召开研讨会。现有的机构资金来源将用于帮助我们发展网络，使更多的伦敦大学学院和台大的同事能够根据他们的相关兴趣相互匹配，从而参与进来。伦敦大学学院教育研究所将其在应用语言学和STEM教师专业发展方面的广泛专业知识与台大作为台湾主要教师教育机构的角色结合起来。这种网络合作有潜力塑造台湾的STEM双语学校教学的发展，并通过台大的区域联系，在更广泛的东亚地区。我们的目标是开发一个潜在的未来联合研究项目，利用这些现有资源，同时解决台湾环境的特殊需求，这要求到2030年所有STEM科目的学校教学都要采用双语（台英）教学。

This network project enables researchers at UCL, UK and NTNU, Taiwan to work more closely to establish a series of academic exchange activities . At the beginning we will convene a series of seminar and workshops where we will showcase out existing research projects and trial each others technologies so we can better understand each others' contexts. We will begin with the UCL-developed ScratchMaths and Cornerstone Maths curriculums, which our NTNU colleagues have identified as most promising to support the goals of STEM teaching in Taiwan and suitable for adaptation to a bilingual teaching context. NTNU will reciprocate by convening workshops using their Cloud Classroom platform. Existing institutional funding sources will be used to help us to grow the network by enabling further UCL and NTNU colleagues to become involved by matching them with each other, based on their related interests. UCL Institute of Education brings its extensive expertise in applied linguistics and STEM teacher professional development alongside NTNU's role as the main teacher education institution in Taiwan. This network collaboration has the potential to shape the development of bilingual STEM school teaching in Taiwan and, with NTNU's regional connections, in wider East Asia.Our goal is to develop a potential future programme of joint research that draws on these existing resources, whilst addressing the particular needs of the Taiwanese context, which requires all school teaching of STEM subjects to be taught bilingually (Taiwanese-English) by 2030.
