[Express your creativity. Imagine the future]!

Since August 2011, The Ministry of Education has been carrying out a three-year plan for [High School Future Imagination and Creativity Talent Training]. The teachers Ms. Lin-Tsiou Liu and Ms. Huei-Qing Feng have lead our school's participation in the first year section of this plan [Think Different --- Cross-Disciplinary Creative Courses for Futuristic Thinking], and the response from the middle-school administrators and teachers has been enthusiastic, with excellent results. The second year plan [Then and Now --- A Rhapsody for the Future World] further received an award from the Ministry of Education for being an exemplary school for [Creation of a Futuristic and Imaginative Campus]. The plan integrated imaginative aspects of the future with the teachers' education philosophy, students' learning motivations, and the school's infrastructure to create an environment for learning that nurtures a creative, forward-looking perspective. This connects the three big themes of “Future Technology”, “Future Society”, and “Future Space”, focusing on the connections and synergies between different subjects, creatively introducing visions for the future and the effects of the present-day values held by individuals and societies on future societal development.
