Minutes of the Kick-off meeting “EU JM Centre of Excellence for Digitalization of University Teaching” Nov 16, 2023, 10:00-11:30 am, HNU Tenglong Building, room 309
===Protocol: Martin Woesler===
===Participants===
Prof. Woesler, Prof. Jiang Lihua, Prof. Porter, PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Liu Rong, Zhouli Ziruo, Volunteer "Sari" Cai Xixiu.

===Next Meeting===
Friday Nov 24, 2023, 10:00 am room 309. For those who can only attend online: Zoom: http://bit.ly/ZOOMCOURSE

===Your contact people: The project staff===
Project Leader: Prof. Woesler, Project Assistants: PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Zhouli Ziruo, Liu Rong. The staff takes on the double task of conducting research (especially systematic literature reviews, surveys, field experiments testing different learning spaces or digital tools) and doing the administration (keeping the overview, watching the timeline, reports on the EU platform, reminding of deadlines, organizing meetings, inviting project members and external experts to joint papers, conferences, anthologies etc.).

===Salaries===
The project started in September and the project staff has already invested some work. So far, the payment of the salaries was not yet agreed to by the accounting office, they wanted more information. Still, there is a lot of work which needs to be done, including website and reports, until December. Therefore, it is important, that the accounting office already pays the monthly salaries to the project staff now in November.

===Budget===
The budget is quite large and except from the salary for the project staff contains several sub posts, like lump sum salary for students, travel reimbursement, equipment, website programming, conference costs etc. Prof. David Porter offered to design and create a EU and a CN website adhering to the respective policies.

===Personnel===
For the 5 Research Groups, the following heads were suggested:

#Regulation (Comparison) Liu Bai
#Experiences (Comparison) Aline
#Effectiveness of digital tools: David Porter, Ole Döring, Yang Zhiming

Explanation: (How to achieve learning outcomes of teaching in presence also with online or technology-enhanced teaching? Quality measurement.)
#Learning Spaces (Comparison): Jiang Lihua
#ChatGPT/PostEdit (Comparison C-EU): Martin Woesler

===Salary for Project Personnel and Project Members===
There is no monthly salary foreseen in the budget for all participants. But everybody who invests time in the project should be reimbursed. Since the publication of papers is the most important in the project, the project offers to reimburse all Professors and PhD candidates, who publish a paper to be reimbursed for 50 hours (each SCI, SSCI or A&HCI impact paper, corresponds to 1000 Euros for professors and 500 Euros for students), 25 hours (each CSSCI impact paper, corresponds to 500 Euros for professors and 250 Euros for students). Non PhD-Students (but Bachelor- or Master students) who participate, e.g. in the many time consuming tasks like literature review, surveys, field experiments, will be reimbursed with a lump sum per month and will be informed about the expected number of hours they are required to work.

===Credits and Acknowledgments===
Hunan Normal University needs to be mentioned as the affiliated university of both, the 1st and 2nd author. Also, the grant acknowledgement and disclaimer need to be printed with the paper, e.g. as a footnote or endnote. All posters, websites etc. need to display the EU Erasmus + co-funding logo.

===Things to do===
#Prof. Jiang: Please invite Prof. Liu Bai and Prof. Yang Zhiming.
#Prof. Jiang: Dean Situ and the Accounting office may contact you to reconfirm that the first money can be paid from the grant amount received.
#Ole: Please invite Prof. Aline Tedeschi
#Everybody: Please start to read the newest research papers on the topic. The library offers and EBSCO access. Ole can instruct student groups to perform different Systematic Literature Reviews. Languages should be at least Chinese and English. Some research questions should be developed through these literature reviews. Please keep in touch in the WeChat group and exchange your findings.

===Things to do for the project staff===
#Finalize report of old project (this part of the work is NOT paid by the new project) both on the EU platform as well as on the website http://jmchair.eu.
#Organize setting up a Website
#Get the frequent payments running with the accounting office in coordination with the College leadership.
#Conduct systematic literature reviews, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.
#Set up virtual working space on wiki and invite everybody to join. Publish there all findings.
#Invite everybody to the next meeting next Friday 10 am and collect points for the agenda from the participants.

P.S.: After the meeting, Prof. Jiang invited Prof. Woesler to join the current session of her Colloquium into room 410 (13:00-14:15). There he introduced the project again and offered the PhD candidates to join the project, preferrably assisting the head of research group 4, Prof. Jiang Lihua. PhD candidates are encouraged to join because they can make double use of their research for the project/publications and their thesis. Also, the participation in the project will be certified and can be used in the curriculum vitae for job applications.

Minutes of the second weekly meeting “EU JM Centre of Excellence for Digitalization of University Teaching” Nov 24, 2023, 10:00-11:30 am, HNNU Tenglong Building, room 309

===Protocal: Liu Rong, edited: Martin Woesler===

===Participants===
Prof. Woesler, Prof. Porter, Prof. Ma Nake, PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Liu Rong, "Sari" Cai Xixiu.

===Next Meeting===
Scheduled for Tuesday Nov 29, 16:00 and 18:15 Chinese time room 309. For those who can only attend online: Tencent Meeting:https://meeting.tencent.com/dm/bCQdfgGlezZ1

===Budget and Salary===
For student volunteers the budget provides a total of 4,000 Yuan per month over the range of 3 years. Since there is a higher workload before and during conferences, we will have to be able to assign both salaries (e.g. for Cai Cixiu) and short-term contract salaries (e.g. for conferences). The project staff receives regular payments. The request for first payments has been submitted.

===Things to do===
#Sari: Please conduct a MikeCRM survey. Print the research questionnaire by Prof. Doering, and conduct the survey with the students who participated in the painting event. (When conducting the survey, the respondents’ initials with birth date (like WJG1001) can be used to code them, so that the privacy of respondents can be protected and we can compare and analyze developments.)
#Phd students: Please analyze the survey results of the last EU project, and upload the parts of the final report to the EU website (compare the answers of Prof. Woesler’s with the students’ answer and get the percentage both at the beginning and the end of the semester. If there is a progress, this would be a good result for the report.) Also copy documentation to website jmchair.eu.
#Prof. Porter: Thank you for submitting the first samples for a website. They are under review.
#Everybody: Start reading. Prepare systematic literature reviews on the project topic, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.

===Report by Martin Woesler on Grants for going to a French university as a visiting professor, chair professors===
For now, I recommend to already check out the grants to prepare a good application. Regarding the chair professor or visiting scholar programs for foreign professors in France, there are the following mostly financed by the EU, sometimes together with the French Ministry of Science (I have indicated all weblinks):

1. Chair Program with Universities and Grand Ecoles

In addition to receiving visiting professors or researchers, many French universities and Grandes Ecoles have chair programmes to welcome researchers from around the world. These programmes are usually designed for specific scientific problems and last for a limited time. The Collège de France in particular has developed a programme of excellence in which many chairs are reserved for foreign researchers or professors. www.college-de-france.fr.

2. Chair Programs with Research Establishments

Further, there are corporate chairs that enable foreign researchers to work with a company and research establishment for up to 2 years. This programme is financed by the French National Research Agency.

Everybody please prepare a 1 minute input what you found out so far from the literature, about experts we can invite and what you want to conduct research on.

===Input by David Porter===
Pardon any typos. As mentioned last time I would recommend we invite Prof. Luis Cordeiro-Rodrigues from Hunan University as he has experience with AI and ethics and is ‘right next door’ so to speak. I am happy to reach out to him but I think it would be good to have a formal CFP or fixed plan so that I can explain exactly what we would be invited for and when.

If invited speakers don’t have to be university-affiliated academics I would recommend Matt Sheehan (matt.sheehan@ceip.org) who is a fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a journal and involved with various think-tanks relating to global technology (including China - he is supposed to be fluent in Chinese). Zhu Junhua (junzhu@utu.fi https://www.utu.fi/en/people/junhua-zhu ) is a doctoral student at University of Turku, and so still an early career scholar but is doing work on AI governance and ethics who might be someone who can bridge the Europe-China divide. We all come across a lot of names, so it might be good to have a more settled idea of what our conference might focus on more narrowly?

I want to focus on AI and university teaching with a comparative focus on Europe and China. Even in the past few years there are thousands of relevant articles but I will focus on a few more specific and nuanced research goals in the next couple months. It will likely relate to the adoption of AI in educational institutions in both regions during and post-COVID, impact of AI on student engagement, and overall learning outcomes but I want to tie into ethical considerations. Can put this crudely:
1) How extensively is AI tech currently integrated into university teaching in Europe and China?
2) How do educators perceive and navigate the associated challenges with AI and their teaching practices? (ethics here).
3) What is the impact of AI on outcomes: academic performance, yes, but also student engagement and real learning outcomes (not just bullshit test scores) in European and Chinese universities?
4) What about institutional, cultural or contextual differences that shape the adoption and impact of AI in university teaching between Europe and China?

I am still working on Literature Review and narrowing down what lit to review since comprehensiveness is impossible/obsolete the day after it is done. I want to work this into something of a comparative analysis between Europe and China in terms of AI adoption and its impact on university teaching (not exactly that but something like that). Before next semester I want to have a tangible plan for some surveys to gather qualitative and quantitative data. I have a timeline to do the preliminary work by March and serious development for something that can be submitted for publication next Fall (optimistically October, absit omen).

Abstract

Ocean Acidification (OA) is an emerging environmental issue that is still largely unknown to the public and in its infancy in terms of educational strategies. OA teaching material should address the specific challenges that educators face while building learners’ understanding of OA. The objective of this study is two-fold. First, we identified the barriers to teaching OA as experienced by formal and informal marine educators. Second, we provided educators an opportunity to experience virtual reality and discuss how it could serve as a tool for face-to-face and distance learning to address the identified challenges. The findings shed light on four overarching themes of challenges to teaching OA: lack of science literacy, unprepared education field, complex and invisible nature of OA and lack of personal connection with the ocean. Marine educators consider empowerment, perspective-taking and visualization as the three principal avenues through which virtual reality may contribute to mitigating the challenges to teaching OA.

Abstract

Science achievement gaps exhibit racial disparities starting in primary grades and have been shown to persist through middle and high school. In turn, increasing positive attitudes toward science have been shown as one factor that affects academic achievement and motivation among K-12 students. Exploring novel ways that technology can influence diverse students’ attitudes toward science, and the design elements pertinent therein, is thus one prominent goal toward achieving science education for all. Leveraging the immersive nature of Virtual Reality 360 videos, we present a design-based research iteration testing how a novel technology-enhanced learning experience influenced close to 400 urban elementary students’ attitudes toward science. Using a two-way MANCOVA analysis, the data support that our design iteration emphasizing context-specific learningcan prime students that do not see science as relevant to them to change these attitudes in significantly positive ways. Implications are discussed around relationality, technology use in urban schools, and local contexts as learning resources.

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) systems offer effective support for online learning and teaching, including personalizing learning for students, automating instructors’ routine tasks, and powering adaptive assessments. However, while the opportunities for AI are promising, the impact of AI systems on the culture of, norms in, and expectations about interactions between students and instructors are still elusive. In online learning, learner–instructor interaction (inter alia, communication, support, and presence) has a profound impact on students’ satisfaction and learning outcomes. Thus, identifying how students and instructors perceive the impact of AI systems on their interaction is important to identify any gaps, challenges, or barriers preventing AI systems from achieving their intended potential and risking the safety of these interactions. To address this need for forward-looking decisions, we used Speed Dating with storyboards to analyze the authentic voices of 12 students and 11 instructors on diverse use cases of possible AI systems in online learning. Findings show that participants envision adopting AI systems in online learning can enable personalized learner–instructor interaction at scale but at the risk of violating social boundaries. Although AI systems have been positively recognized for improving the quantity and quality of communication, for providing just-in-time, personalized support for large-scale settings, and for improving the feeling of connection, there were concerns about responsibility, agency, and surveillance issues. These findings have implications for the design of AI systems to ensure explainability, human-in-the-loop, and careful data collection and presentation. Overall, contributions of this study include the design of AI system storyboards which are technically feasible and positively support learner–instructor interaction, capturing students’ and instructors’ concerns of AI systems through Speed Dating, and suggesting practical implications for maximizing the positive impact of AI systems while minimizing the negative ones

Abstract

The objective of personalized learning is to design an effective knowledge acquisition track that matches the learner's strengths and bypasses her weaknesses to ultimately meet her desired goal. This concept emerged several years ago and is being adopted by a rapidly-growing number of educational institutions around the globe. In recent years, the boost of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), together with the advances in big data analysis, has unfolded novel perspectives to enhance personalized education in numerous dimensions. By taking advantage of AI/ML methods, the educational platform precisely acquires the student's characteristics. This is done, in part, by observing the past experiences as well as analyzing the available big data through exploring the learners' features and similarities. It can, for example, recommend the most appropriate content among numerous accessible ones, advise a well-designed long-term curriculum, connect appropriate learners by suggestion, accurate performance evaluation, and the like. Still, several aspects of AI-based personalized education remain unexplored. These include, among others, compensating for the adverse effects of the absence of peers, creating and maintaining motivations for learning, increasing diversity, removing the biases induced by the data and algorithms, and the like. In this paper, while providing a brief review of state-of-the-art research, we investigate the challenges of AI/ML-based personalized education and discuss potential solutions.

Abstract

The amount of research on virtual reality learning tools increases with time. Despite the diverse environments and theoretical foundations, enough data have been accumulated in recent years to provide a systematic review of the methods used. We pose ten questions concerning the methodological aspects of these studies. We performed a search in three databases according to the PRISMA guidelines and evaluated several characteristics, with particular emphasis on researchers' methodological decisions. We found an increase over time in the number of studies on the effectiveness of VR-based learning. We also identified shortcomings related to how the duration and number of training sessions are reported. We believe that these two factors could affect the effectiveness of VR-based training. Furthermore, when using the Kirkpatrick model, a significant imbalance can be observed in favor of outcomes from the ‘Reaction’ and ‘Learning’ levels compared to the ‘Behavior’ and ‘Results’ levels. The last of these was not used in any of the 330 reviewed studies. These results highlight the importance of research on the effectiveness of VR training. Taking into account the identified methodological shortcomings will allow for more significant research on this topic in the future.

Abstract

This paper aims to critically examine the potentials and challenges of developing AIenhanced CALL-software to enhance adaptive, individualized, and, in certain respects, intelligent practice in the foreign language classroom. The following section provides an introductory, practical discussion of terms, methods, and common application types of (narrow) AIs in foreign language learning processes. We will then, as the main focus of this paper, address features of intelligent practice in the foreign language classroom, the possibilities of using AI to create adaptive learning environments, and typical architectural elements of intelligent learning systems. Subsequently, this paper provides insights into two current research and development projects. The article concludes with a utopian outlook into the foreign language classroom of the year 2040.

Abstract

We conducted a systematic literature review on automated grading and feedback tools for programming education. We analysed 121 research papers from 2017 to 2021 inclusive and categorised them based on skills assessed, approach, language paradigm, degree of automation and evaluation techniques. Most papers assess the correctness of assignments in object-oriented languages. Typically, these tools use a dynamic technique, primarily unit testing, to provide grades and feedback to the students or static analysis techniques to compare a submission with a reference solution or with a set of correct student submissions. However, these techniques’ feedback is often limited to whether the unit tests have passed or failed, the expected and actual output, or how they differ from the reference solution. Furthermore, few tools assess the maintainability, readability or documentation of the source code, with most using static analysis techniques, such as code quality metrics, in conjunction with grading correctness. Additionally, we found that most tools offered fully automated assessment to allow for near-instantaneous feedback and multiple resubmissions, which can increase student satisfaction and provide them with more opportunities to succeed. In terms of techniques used to evaluate the tools’ performance, most papers primarily use student surveys or compare the automatic assessment tools to grades or feedback provided by human graders. However, because the evaluation dataset is frequently unavailable, it is more difficult to reproduce results and compare tools to a collection of common assignments.

Abstract

Student attrition poses a major challenge to academic institutions, funding bodies and students. With the rise of Big Data and predictive analytics, a growing body of work in higher education research has demonstrated the feasibility of predicting student dropout from readily available macro-level (e.g., socio-demographics or early performance metrics) and micro-level data (e.g., logins to learning management systems). Yet, the existing work has largely overlooked a critical meso-level element of student success known to drive retention: students’ experience at university and their social embeddedness within their cohort. In partnership with a mobile application that facilitates communication between students and universities, we collected both (1) institutional macro-level data and (2) behavioral micro and meso-level engagement data (e.g., the quantity and quality of interactions with university services and events as well as with other students) to predict dropout after the first semester. Analyzing the records of 50,095 students from four US universities and community colleges, we demonstrate that the combined macro and meso-level data can predict dropout with high levels of predictive performance (average AUC across linear and non-linear models = 78%; max AUC = 88%). Behavioral engagement variables representing students’ experience at university (e.g., network centrality, app engagement, event ratings) were found to add incremental predictive power beyond institutional variables (e.g., GPA or ethnicity). Finally, we highlight the generalizability of our results by showing that models trained on one university can predict retention at another university with reasonably high levels of predictive performance.

Abstract

The assimilation of artificial intelligence into education is an inevitable phenomenon. Intelligent tools provide opportunities such as personalized instruction, automated assessment and, last but not least, teaching with virtual assistants or chatbots. Chatbots and other virtual assistants have been on the market for years and have been used for educational purposes on various Q&A platforms. ChatGPT, however, can be considered as an intellectual revolution of chatbots that have been released so far. ChatGPT has taken the concept of artificial intelligence to a new level and it was inevitable that it would make its debut in education. However, in schools, this level and relative novelty can bring not only benefits but also dangers. In this article, we discuss the potential of ChatGPT in the educational process. We look at the impact it can have on students, pointing out both the positives and the negatives. We then look at the opportunities for teachers. Finally, conclusions are drawn and suggestions are made as to the aspects that teachers and students need to adhere to in order to effectively implement ChatGPT in their everyday education.

Abstract

In higher education, low teacher-student ratios can make it difficult for students to receive immediate and interactive help. Chatbots, increasingly used in various scenarios such as customer service, work productivity, and healthcare, might be one way of helping instructors better meet student needs. However, few empirical studies in the field of Information Systems (IS) have investigated pedagogical chatbot efficacy in higher education and fewer still discuss their potential challenges and drawbacks. In this research we address this gap in the IS literature by exploring the opportunities, challenges, efficacy, and ethical concerns of using chatbots as pedagogical tools in business education. In this two study project, we conducted a chatbot-guided interview with 215 undergraduate students to understand student attitudes regarding the potential benefits and challenges of using chatbots as intelligent student assistants. Our findings revealed the potential for chatbots to help students learn basic content in a responsive, interactive, and confidential way. Findings also provided insights into student learning needs which we then used to design and develop a new, experimental chatbot assistant to teach basic AI concepts to 195 students. Results of this second study suggest chatbots can be engaging and responsive conversational learning tools for teaching basic concepts and for providing educational resources. Herein, we provide the results of both studies and discuss possible promising opportunities and ethical implications of using chatbots to support inclusive learning.

Our final report for the last project (2020-2023) has been submitted to the EU.
===Report on deliverable 1.1 „Website“ due December 2024===
===Input by Sari===
For the ai education prevalence, but that ‘s only in the cities and small towns. It give impression to itself in regional and rural inequalities. It is obviously reflected in the lack of educational resources in the areas below the county level, the low investment in education, and the low level of system construction. The quality and level of education in poor areas is relatively poor, leaving children vulnerable to disparities. Although in the cities,there is not every student has access to this technology. Only in parts of the school and rich families. To solve these problems, the cooperation of the government and the education sector, as well as the charity sector, is needed. The rich need not only to benefit from it but also to play an important role in it rather than contributing to it.

=PREPARATION OF WACS 8 2024 in Poznan/Athens/Changsha=

Ideas to professionalize our annual conference and to win more people to participate
#we only recommend a conference hotel with a conference discount, but the participants book directly with the hotel. This helps us to lower the conference fees to maybe 190€. Also, we only accept international bank payment directly to the association‘s account.
#We should send a flyer to us universities in order to get some PhD candidates, who can present part of their Thesis. And of course scholars as a main target group.
#Last time we also improved: double blind peer review,
# issuing travel stipends,
#awards in different categories,
#chairs and discussants for all panels,
#hybrid format.

With budget cut over the years, except for the few very well-endowed private univs, in the US, most professors only have 1 trip paid. They will choose the most relevant and established one or two. Graduate students basically pay for themselves, so they only go to AAS and/or AAS Regional conferences.

With zoom, you have more flexibility.

Dan's perspectives are from those in linguistics, a much smaller group than the scope WACS advertises.

1. As a very young asso., even with high level and strong backing, you cannot compete with the established ones.

2. Your initial vision seemed to be a platform to bring in prc sinologists who don't work with the Eng lang.

3. But you also include Eng lang papers.

4. The last few years show that W European & N Am scholars are not attracted to the conference.

A) Some feedback seems to be this is a crazy group of people, a nicer way of saying they are unprofessional and disorganised.

B) The dates may be a part of it but less critical than the messiness.

5) So two issues:

A) the volume and national variety of participants; and

B) the asso's administration of the conferences.

6) Possible remedies:

A) you need a systematic way of proactively reaching out to universities and colleges all over the world, by sending the departments information about the coming year's conference & links, etc.

You have to do this every year. Your conference's scope covers culture, history, ling., lit, phil, pol sci, etc., so to each of these departments, a notice could be sent.

You can do so with a master list by approaching a certain number in each continent the first year, then adding a few more for that country the next year, and so on.

You can even target specific regions/ continents in different years. You are in Eastern Europe, it's a good time to get them to participate. Maybe alongside, this year, it is SE Asia. (Next year, it could be S. Am & Australia as specific targets.)

B) The asso's org: herein lies the foundation of the problem. Until you look hard into it and take serious steps to overhaul it, putting in place functional committees with members who put in time and energy to administer and operate the asso., hence the conference as well, even if (A) is successful one year, it will evaporate in a handful of years.

7) In short, it is necessary to prioritise the structural/ organisational reform in administration & operation, before the change of dates.

8) Since changing the dates in a big way may not bring in many more new participants, you may want to hold it off.

A) You may want to have someone to do a quick research to see when, e.g. Asia & SE Asia is most unlikely to attend a conf, then when in S Am, etc., and the reasons. You get an overview, then you decide.

=Successfully completed tasks=
*We have submitted the [[Interview by Wan Shuyuan 2022]], it got more than 1 million readers and was republished on several platforms including the website of the Chinese Embassy in Germany
*The JM budget of 40.000 Euros was moved from "Research" to "Education" 教务处 and paid to the participating teachers. Now we need to provide evidence for more teachings so that the remaining 10.000 Euros and 16.667 Euros matching funds from the university can be spent and 10,000 Euros will be reimbursed upon delivery of the report.

*Send everyone a sample of the journal and the vetting (review) of the Chinese essays.
*Prepare 2 MOOC contents and produce films
==Duan Yuanyuan==
'''Funds Management'''
*Submit a new Seed Grant 启动资金 to Administration: So in the new budget, we should have maybe 55.000 Yuan travel and (quarantine) hotel cost, 10.000 Yuan office 309 和 415 设备 (比如冰箱、饮水机), 30.000 Yuan salary for assistants, 5.000 Yuan budget for books and decoration (statues, paintings) we buy for the two walls and bookshelfs in both offices. If it is not possible to buy fridge etc. from it, we can plan this money differently. I am afraid we will spend all the money totally soon. Therefore, I will have to apply for a second budget maybe for 2023. I don't know if they grant me a second budget.
*The EU Grant requires to spend 67.000 Euros first, submit spending receipts and then apply for reimbursement of remaining 10.000 Euros. This means that the university has to release the 40.000 Euros now, is ready to spend the remaining 27.000 Euros then and get reimbursed only 10.000 Euros later.
*Read into the technical requirements of managing EU funds, this includes registering on web sites, filling out forms, submitting information and requesting fundings, controlling the funds arriving at the HUNNU account, forwarding it to the recipients at HUNNU, coordinating with financial department of HUNNU.

Type: Call for Papers

Location: Korea South

Subject Fields: Asian History / Studies, Chinese History / Studies, East Asian History / Studies, Japanese History / Studies, Korean History / Studies

CFP: The Journal of Northeast Asian History Vol. 19-1

Dear Colleagues,

The Northeast Asian History Foundation continues to expand its interaction with scholars specializing in Asian history and related fields outside East Asia. The Foundation is also strengthening its ties with leading institutions and scholars by encouraging interdisciplinary and comparative approaches to research on geopolitical, cultural, educational, and other issues in East Asia.

The Foundation publishes the Journal of Northeast Asian History (JNAH), a peer-reviewed semi-annual English-language journal that focuses on history-based approaches to Asian politics, cultures, economy and other fields to shed light on the historical realities of the Asian World. The Journal's geographical scope extends to other parts of the world which have significant relevancy to Asian history, thus charting globalism and localism from global perspectives.

In particular, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Korea-China Relations and Historical Configuration in Northeast Asia and (2) US-China Relations and Historical Issues in East Asia, both of which will help explore further how inter-state and intra-state matters were and are liked together to the historical development of continental East Asia and how the confluence of these external and internal factors have been making vital impact on the various mode of regional interaction in modern East Asia and beyond.

The Journal of Northeast Asian History calls for the submission of outstanding and unpublished papers for review and possible publication in Winter 2022. We invite colleagues to consider the Journal when seeking to publish ongoing research since we believe this can be an impetus for further scholarly collaboration in the future. For full consideration, please submit manuscripts by July 31, 2022 for Winter Issue.

Please contact us at jnah@nahf.or.kr or jnah.nahf@gmail.com should you have any questions regarding the journal, its submission process or subscription to it.
Thank you in advance for your attention and contributions.

'''CFP:''' “David versus Goliath - Souvereignty issues of small countries and regions neighboring large countries” European Journal of Chinese Studies 4 (2021)

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — the most consequential military conflict Europe has witnessed since the Second World War — has riveted the attention of the world. Almost inevitably people look to draw analogies — both historical and contemporary ones. One popular contemporary analogy is between Russia’s actions vis-à-vis Ukraine and mainland China’s approach to Taiwan.

In this issue, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Russia-Ukraine and (2) Mainland China-Taiwan. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine the two comparisons. We aim to bring together papers that (1) critically examine the differentiated situation of the two large authoriatarian nations; (2) discuss the ways in which two large authoritarian nations exert control on smaller neighbors; and (3) comparison with the approach of non-authoritarian large nations towards smaller neighbors; (4) consequences for world order, stability, peace and economical development.

Communication is among the best ways to resolve differences and strengthen cooperation. At an age when "anti-globalization" continues to characterize global situation; conservatism and ultra-nationalism are on the rise; and regional conflicts become frequent, cross-cultural communication seems to be particularly meaningful.

In this issue, we will welcome topics that concern (1) Chinese literature and (2) Western literature. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature in general or in particular works. We will welcome papers that (1) critically examine the different culture and cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature; (2) discusses the problems encountered in such cross-cutural communication; (3) what such communications contribute to Chinese or Western culture.

Minutes of the Kick-off meeting “EU JM Centre of Excellence for Digitalization of University Teaching” Nov 16, 2023, 10:00-11:30 am, HNU Tenglong Building, room 309
===Protocol: Martin Woesler===
===Participants===
Prof. Woesler, Prof. Jiang Lihua, Prof. Porter, PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Liu Rong, Zhouli Ziruo, Volunteer "Sari" Cai Xixiu.

===Next Meeting===
Friday Nov 24, 2023, 10:00 am room 309. For those who can only attend online: Zoom: http://bit.ly/ZOOMCOURSE

===Your contact people: The project staff===
Project Leader: Prof. Woesler, Project Assistants: PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Zhouli Ziruo, Liu Rong. The staff takes on the double task of conducting research (especially systematic literature reviews, surveys, field experiments testing different learning spaces or digital tools) and doing the administration (keeping the overview, watching the timeline, reports on the EU platform, reminding of deadlines, organizing meetings, inviting project members and external experts to joint papers, conferences, anthologies etc.).

===Salaries===
The project started in September and the project staff has already invested some work. So far, the payment of the salaries was not yet agreed to by the accounting office, they wanted more information. Still, there is a lot of work which needs to be done, including website and reports, until December. Therefore, it is important, that the accounting office already pays the monthly salaries to the project staff now in November.

===Budget===
The budget is quite large and except from the salary for the project staff contains several sub posts, like lump sum salary for students, travel reimbursement, equipment, website programming, conference costs etc. Prof. David Porter offered to design and create a EU and a CN website adhering to the respective policies.

===Personnel===
For the 5 Research Groups, the following heads were suggested:

#Regulation (Comparison) Liu Bai
#Experiences (Comparison) Aline
#Effectiveness of digital tools: David Porter, Ole Döring, Yang Zhiming

Explanation: (How to achieve learning outcomes of teaching in presence also with online or technology-enhanced teaching? Quality measurement.)
#Learning Spaces (Comparison): Jiang Lihua
#ChatGPT/PostEdit (Comparison C-EU): Martin Woesler

===Salary for Project Personnel and Project Members===
There is no monthly salary foreseen in the budget for all participants. But everybody who invests time in the project should be reimbursed. Since the publication of papers is the most important in the project, the project offers to reimburse all Professors and PhD candidates, who publish a paper to be reimbursed for 50 hours (each SCI, SSCI or A&HCI impact paper, corresponds to 1000 Euros for professors and 500 Euros for students), 25 hours (each CSSCI impact paper, corresponds to 500 Euros for professors and 250 Euros for students). Non PhD-Students (but Bachelor- or Master students) who participate, e.g. in the many time consuming tasks like literature review, surveys, field experiments, will be reimbursed with a lump sum per month and will be informed about the expected number of hours they are required to work.

===Credits and Acknowledgments===
Hunan Normal University needs to be mentioned as the affiliated university of both, the 1st and 2nd author. Also, the grant acknowledgement and disclaimer need to be printed with the paper, e.g. as a footnote or endnote. All posters, websites etc. need to display the EU Erasmus + co-funding logo.

===Things to do===
#Prof. Jiang: Please invite Prof. Liu Bai and Prof. Yang Zhiming.
#Prof. Jiang: Dean Situ and the Accounting office may contact you to reconfirm that the first money can be paid from the grant amount received.
#Ole: Please invite Prof. Aline Tedeschi

===Next Meeting===
Scheduled for Tuesday Nov 29, 16:00 and 18:15 Chinese time room 309. For those who can only attend online: Tencent Meeting:https://meeting.tencent.com/dm/bCQdfgGlezZ1

===Budget and Salary===
For student volunteers the budget provides a total of 4,000 Yuan per month over the range of 3 years. Since there is a higher workload before and during conferences, we will have to be able to assign both salaries (e.g. for Cai Cixiu) and short-term contract salaries (e.g. for conferences). The project staff receives regular payments. The request for first payments has been submitted.

===Things to do===
#Sari: Please conduct a MikeCRM survey. Print the research questionnaire by Prof. Doering, and conduct the survey with the students who participated in the painting event. (When conducting the survey, the respondents’ initials with birth date (like WJG1001) can be used to code them, so that the privacy of respondents can be protected and we can compare and analyze developments.)
#Phd students: Please analyze the survey results of the last EU project, and upload the parts of the final report to the EU website (compare the answers of Prof. Woesler’s with the students’ answer and get the percentage both at the beginning and the end of the semester. If there is a progress, this would be a good result for the report.) Also copy documentation to website jmchair.eu.
#Prof. Porter: Thank you for submitting the first samples for a website. They are under review.
#Everybody: Start reading. Prepare systematic literature reviews on the project topic, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.

Everybody please prepare a 1 minute input what you found out so far from the literature, about experts we can invite and what you want to conduct research on.

===Input by David Porter===
Pardon any typos. As mentioned last time I would recommend we invite Prof. Luis Cordeiro-Rodrigues from Hunan University as he has experience with AI and ethics and is ‘right next door’ so to speak. I am happy to reach out to him but I think it would be good to have a formal CFP or fixed plan so that I can explain exactly what we would be invited for and when.

If invited speakers don’t have to be university-affiliated academics I would recommend Matt Sheehan (matt.sheehan@ceip.org) who is a fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a journal and involved with various think-tanks relating to global technology (including China - he is supposed to be fluent in Chinese). Zhu Junhua (junzhu@utu.fi https://www.utu.fi/en/people/junhua-zhu ) is a doctoral student at University of Turku, and so still an early career scholar but is doing work on AI governance and ethics who might be someone who can bridge the Europe-China divide. We all come across a lot of names, so it might be good to have a more settled idea of what our conference might focus on more narrowly?

I want to focus on AI and university teaching with a comparative focus on Europe and China. Even in the past few years there are thousands of relevant articles but I will focus on a few more specific and nuanced research goals in the next couple months. It will likely relate to the adoption of AI in educational institutions in both regions during and post-COVID, impact of AI on student engagement, and overall learning outcomes but I want to tie into ethical considerations. Can put this crudely:
1) How extensively is AI tech currently integrated into university teaching in Europe and China?
2) How do educators perceive and navigate the associated challenges with AI and their teaching practices? (ethics here).
3) What is the impact of AI on outcomes: academic performance, yes, but also student engagement and real learning outcomes (not just bullshit test scores) in European and Chinese universities?
4) What about institutional, cultural or contextual differences that shape the adoption and impact of AI in university teaching between Europe and China?

I am still working on Literature Review and narrowing down what lit to review since comprehensiveness is impossible/obsolete the day after it is done. I want to work this into something of a comparative analysis between Europe and China in terms of AI adoption and its impact on university teaching (not exactly that but something like that). Before next semester I want to have a tangible plan for some surveys to gather qualitative and quantitative data. I have a timeline to do the preliminary work by March and serious development for something that can be submitted for publication next Fall (optimistically October, absit omen).

Abstract

Ocean Acidification (OA) is an emerging environmental issue that is still largely unknown to the public and in its infancy in terms of educational strategies. OA teaching material should address the specific challenges that educators face while building learners’ understanding of OA. The objective of this study is two-fold. First, we identified the barriers to teaching OA as experienced by formal and informal marine educators. Second, we provided educators an opportunity to experience virtual reality and discuss how it could serve as a tool for face-to-face and distance learning to address the identified challenges. The findings shed light on four overarching themes of challenges to teaching OA: lack of science literacy, unprepared education field, complex and invisible nature of OA and lack of personal connection with the ocean. Marine educators consider empowerment, perspective-taking and visualization as the three principal avenues through which virtual reality may contribute to mitigating the challenges to teaching OA.

Abstract

Science achievement gaps exhibit racial disparities starting in primary grades and have been shown to persist through middle and high school. In turn, increasing positive attitudes toward science have been shown as one factor that affects academic achievement and motivation among K-12 students. Exploring novel ways that technology can influence diverse students’ attitudes toward science, and the design elements pertinent therein, is thus one prominent goal toward achieving science education for all. Leveraging the immersive nature of Virtual Reality 360 videos, we present a design-based research iteration testing how a novel technology-enhanced learning experience influenced close to 400 urban elementary students’ attitudes toward science. Using a two-way MANCOVA analysis, the data support that our design iteration emphasizing context-specific learningcan prime students that do not see science as relevant to them to change these attitudes in significantly positive ways. Implications are discussed around relationality, technology use in urban schools, and local contexts as learning resources.

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) systems offer effective support for online learning and teaching, including personalizing learning for students, automating instructors’ routine tasks, and powering adaptive assessments. However, while the opportunities for AI are promising, the impact of AI systems on the culture of, norms in, and expectations about interactions between students and instructors are still elusive. In online learning, learner–instructor interaction (inter alia, communication, support, and presence) has a profound impact on students’ satisfaction and learning outcomes. Thus, identifying how students and instructors perceive the impact of AI systems on their interaction is important to identify any gaps, challenges, or barriers preventing AI systems from achieving their intended potential and risking the safety of these interactions. To address this need for forward-looking decisions, we used Speed Dating with storyboards to analyze the authentic voices of 12 students and 11 instructors on diverse use cases of possible AI systems in online learning. Findings show that participants envision adopting AI systems in online learning can enable personalized learner–instructor interaction at scale but at the risk of violating social boundaries. Although AI systems have been positively recognized for improving the quantity and quality of communication, for providing just-in-time, personalized support for large-scale settings, and for improving the feeling of connection, there were concerns about responsibility, agency, and surveillance issues. These findings have implications for the design of AI systems to ensure explainability, human-in-the-loop, and careful data collection and presentation. Overall, contributions of this study include the design of AI system storyboards which are technically feasible and positively support learner–instructor interaction, capturing students’ and instructors’ concerns of AI systems through Speed Dating, and suggesting practical implications for maximizing the positive impact of AI systems while minimizing the negative ones

Abstract

The objective of personalized learning is to design an effective knowledge acquisition track that matches the learner's strengths and bypasses her weaknesses to ultimately meet her desired goal. This concept emerged several years ago and is being adopted by a rapidly-growing number of educational institutions around the globe. In recent years, the boost of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), together with the advances in big data analysis, has unfolded novel perspectives to enhance personalized education in numerous dimensions. By taking advantage of AI/ML methods, the educational platform precisely acquires the student's characteristics. This is done, in part, by observing the past experiences as well as analyzing the available big data through exploring the learners' features and similarities. It can, for example, recommend the most appropriate content among numerous accessible ones, advise a well-designed long-term curriculum, connect appropriate learners by suggestion, accurate performance evaluation, and the like. Still, several aspects of AI-based personalized education remain unexplored. These include, among others, compensating for the adverse effects of the absence of peers, creating and maintaining motivations for learning, increasing diversity, removing the biases induced by the data and algorithms, and the like. In this paper, while providing a brief review of state-of-the-art research, we investigate the challenges of AI/ML-based personalized education and discuss potential solutions.

Abstract

The amount of research on virtual reality learning tools increases with time. Despite the diverse environments and theoretical foundations, enough data have been accumulated in recent years to provide a systematic review of the methods used. We pose ten questions concerning the methodological aspects of these studies. We performed a search in three databases according to the PRISMA guidelines and evaluated several characteristics, with particular emphasis on researchers' methodological decisions. We found an increase over time in the number of studies on the effectiveness of VR-based learning. We also identified shortcomings related to how the duration and number of training sessions are reported. We believe that these two factors could affect the effectiveness of VR-based training. Furthermore, when using the Kirkpatrick model, a significant imbalance can be observed in favor of outcomes from the ‘Reaction’ and ‘Learning’ levels compared to the ‘Behavior’ and ‘Results’ levels. The last of these was not used in any of the 330 reviewed studies. These results highlight the importance of research on the effectiveness of VR training. Taking into account the identified methodological shortcomings will allow for more significant research on this topic in the future.

Abstract

This paper aims to critically examine the potentials and challenges of developing AIenhanced CALL-software to enhance adaptive, individualized, and, in certain respects, intelligent practice in the foreign language classroom. The following section provides an introductory, practical discussion of terms, methods, and common application types of (narrow) AIs in foreign language learning processes. We will then, as the main focus of this paper, address features of intelligent practice in the foreign language classroom, the possibilities of using AI to create adaptive learning environments, and typical architectural elements of intelligent learning systems. Subsequently, this paper provides insights into two current research and development projects. The article concludes with a utopian outlook into the foreign language classroom of the year 2040.

Abstract

We conducted a systematic literature review on automated grading and feedback tools for programming education. We analysed 121 research papers from 2017 to 2021 inclusive and categorised them based on skills assessed, approach, language paradigm, degree of automation and evaluation techniques. Most papers assess the correctness of assignments in object-oriented languages. Typically, these tools use a dynamic technique, primarily unit testing, to provide grades and feedback to the students or static analysis techniques to compare a submission with a reference solution or with a set of correct student submissions. However, these techniques’ feedback is often limited to whether the unit tests have passed or failed, the expected and actual output, or how they differ from the reference solution. Furthermore, few tools assess the maintainability, readability or documentation of the source code, with most using static analysis techniques, such as code quality metrics, in conjunction with grading correctness. Additionally, we found that most tools offered fully automated assessment to allow for near-instantaneous feedback and multiple resubmissions, which can increase student satisfaction and provide them with more opportunities to succeed. In terms of techniques used to evaluate the tools’ performance, most papers primarily use student surveys or compare the automatic assessment tools to grades or feedback provided by human graders. However, because the evaluation dataset is frequently unavailable, it is more difficult to reproduce results and compare tools to a collection of common assignments.

Abstract

Student attrition poses a major challenge to academic institutions, funding bodies and students. With the rise of Big Data and predictive analytics, a growing body of work in higher education research has demonstrated the feasibility of predicting student dropout from readily available macro-level (e.g., socio-demographics or early performance metrics) and micro-level data (e.g., logins to learning management systems). Yet, the existing work has largely overlooked a critical meso-level element of student success known to drive retention: students’ experience at university and their social embeddedness within their cohort. In partnership with a mobile application that facilitates communication between students and universities, we collected both (1) institutional macro-level data and (2) behavioral micro and meso-level engagement data (e.g., the quantity and quality of interactions with university services and events as well as with other students) to predict dropout after the first semester. Analyzing the records of 50,095 students from four US universities and community colleges, we demonstrate that the combined macro and meso-level data can predict dropout with high levels of predictive performance (average AUC across linear and non-linear models = 78%; max AUC = 88%). Behavioral engagement variables representing students’ experience at university (e.g., network centrality, app engagement, event ratings) were found to add incremental predictive power beyond institutional variables (e.g., GPA or ethnicity). Finally, we highlight the generalizability of our results by showing that models trained on one university can predict retention at another university with reasonably high levels of predictive performance.

Abstract

The assimilation of artificial intelligence into education is an inevitable phenomenon. Intelligent tools provide opportunities such as personalized instruction, automated assessment and, last but not least, teaching with virtual assistants or chatbots. Chatbots and other virtual assistants have been on the market for years and have been used for educational purposes on various Q&A platforms. ChatGPT, however, can be considered as an intellectual revolution of chatbots that have been released so far. ChatGPT has taken the concept of artificial intelligence to a new level and it was inevitable that it would make its debut in education. However, in schools, this level and relative novelty can bring not only benefits but also dangers. In this article, we discuss the potential of ChatGPT in the educational process. We look at the impact it can have on students, pointing out both the positives and the negatives. We then look at the opportunities for teachers. Finally, conclusions are drawn and suggestions are made as to the aspects that teachers and students need to adhere to in order to effectively implement ChatGPT in their everyday education.

Abstract

In higher education, low teacher-student ratios can make it difficult for students to receive immediate and interactive help. Chatbots, increasingly used in various scenarios such as customer service, work productivity, and healthcare, might be one way of helping instructors better meet student needs. However, few empirical studies in the field of Information Systems (IS) have investigated pedagogical chatbot efficacy in higher education and fewer still discuss their potential challenges and drawbacks. In this research we address this gap in the IS literature by exploring the opportunities, challenges, efficacy, and ethical concerns of using chatbots as pedagogical tools in business education. In this two study project, we conducted a chatbot-guided interview with 215 undergraduate students to understand student attitudes regarding the potential benefits and challenges of using chatbots as intelligent student assistants. Our findings revealed the potential for chatbots to help students learn basic content in a responsive, interactive, and confidential way. Findings also provided insights into student learning needs which we then used to design and develop a new, experimental chatbot assistant to teach basic AI concepts to 195 students. Results of this second study suggest chatbots can be engaging and responsive conversational learning tools for teaching basic concepts and for providing educational resources. Herein, we provide the results of both studies and discuss possible promising opportunities and ethical implications of using chatbots to support inclusive learning.

===Report on deliverable 1.1 „Website“ due December 2024===
===Input by Sari===
For the ai education prevalence, but that ‘s only in the cities and small towns. It give impression to itself in regional and rural inequalities. It is obviously reflected in the lack of educational resources in the areas below the county level, the low investment in education, and the low level of system construction. The quality and level of education in poor areas is relatively poor, leaving children vulnerable to disparities. Although in the cities,there is not every student has access to this technology. Only in parts of the school and rich families. To solve these problems, the cooperation of the government and the education sector, as well as the charity sector, is needed. The rich need not only to benefit from it but also to play an important role in it rather than contributing to it.

=PREPARATION OF WACS 8 2024 in Poznan/Athens/Changsha=

Ideas to professionalize our annual conference and to win more people to participate
#we only recommend a conference hotel with a conference discount, but the participants book directly with the hotel. This helps us to lower the conference fees to maybe 190€. Also, we only accept international bank payment directly to the association‘s account.
#We should send a flyer to us universities in order to get some PhD candidates, who can present part of their Thesis. And of course scholars as a main target group.
#Last time we also improved: double blind peer review,
# issuing travel stipends,
#awards in different categories,
#chairs and discussants for all panels,
#hybrid format.

With budget cut over the years, except for the few very well-endowed private univs, in the US, most professors only have 1 trip paid. They will choose the most relevant and established one or two. Graduate students basically pay for themselves, so they only go to AAS and/or AAS Regional conferences.

With zoom, you have more flexibility.

Dan's perspectives are from those in linguistics, a much smaller group than the scope WACS advertises.

1. As a very young asso., even with high level and strong backing, you cannot compete with the established ones.

2. Your initial vision seemed to be a platform to bring in prc sinologists who don't work with the Eng lang.

3. But you also include Eng lang papers.

4. The last few years show that W European & N Am scholars are not attracted to the conference.

A) Some feedback seems to be this is a crazy group of people, a nicer way of saying they are unprofessional and disorganised.

B) The dates may be a part of it but less critical than the messiness.

5) So two issues:

A) the volume and national variety of participants; and

B) the asso's administration of the conferences.

6) Possible remedies:

A) you need a systematic way of proactively reaching out to universities and colleges all over the world, by sending the departments information about the coming year's conference & links, etc.

You have to do this every year. Your conference's scope covers culture, history, ling., lit, phil, pol sci, etc., so to each of these departments, a notice could be sent.

You can do so with a master list by approaching a certain number in each continent the first year, then adding a few more for that country the next year, and so on.

You can even target specific regions/ continents in different years. You are in Eastern Europe, it's a good time to get them to participate. Maybe alongside, this year, it is SE Asia. (Next year, it could be S. Am & Australia as specific targets.)

B) The asso's org: herein lies the foundation of the problem. Until you look hard into it and take serious steps to overhaul it, putting in place functional committees with members who put in time and energy to administer and operate the asso., hence the conference as well, even if (A) is successful one year, it will evaporate in a handful of years.

7) In short, it is necessary to prioritise the structural/ organisational reform in administration & operation, before the change of dates.

8) Since changing the dates in a big way may not bring in many more new participants, you may want to hold it off.

A) You may want to have someone to do a quick research to see when, e.g. Asia & SE Asia is most unlikely to attend a conf, then when in S Am, etc., and the reasons. You get an overview, then you decide.

=Successfully completed tasks=
*We have submitted the [[Interview by Wan Shuyuan 2022]], it got more than 1 million readers and was republished on several platforms including the website of the Chinese Embassy in Germany
*The JM budget of 40.000 Euros was moved from "Research" to "Education" 教务处 and paid to the participating teachers. Now we need to provide evidence for more teachings so that the remaining 10.000 Euros and 16.667 Euros matching funds from the university can be spent and 10,000 Euros will be reimbursed upon delivery of the report.

==Duan Yuanyuan==
'''Funds Management'''
*Submit a new Seed Grant 启动资金 to Administration: So in the new budget, we should have maybe 55.000 Yuan travel and (quarantine) hotel cost, 10.000 Yuan office 309 和 415 设备 (比如冰箱、饮水机), 30.000 Yuan salary for assistants, 5.000 Yuan budget for books and decoration (statues, paintings) we buy for the two walls and bookshelfs in both offices. If it is not possible to buy fridge etc. from it, we can plan this money differently. I am afraid we will spend all the money totally soon. Therefore, I will have to apply for a second budget maybe for 2023. I don't know if they grant me a second budget.
*The EU Grant requires to spend 67.000 Euros first, submit spending receipts and then apply for reimbursement of remaining 10.000 Euros. This means that the university has to release the 40.000 Euros now, is ready to spend the remaining 27.000 Euros then and get reimbursed only 10.000 Euros later.
*Read into the technical requirements of managing EU funds, this includes registering on web sites, filling out forms, submitting information and requesting fundings, controlling the funds arriving at the HUNNU account, forwarding it to the recipients at HUNNU, coordinating with financial department of HUNNU.

Type: Call for Papers

Location: Korea South

Subject Fields: Asian History / Studies, Chinese History / Studies, East Asian History / Studies, Japanese History / Studies, Korean History / Studies

CFP: The Journal of Northeast Asian History Vol. 19-1

Dear Colleagues,

The Northeast Asian History Foundation continues to expand its interaction with scholars specializing in Asian history and related fields outside East Asia. The Foundation is also strengthening its ties with leading institutions and scholars by encouraging interdisciplinary and comparative approaches to research on geopolitical, cultural, educational, and other issues in East Asia.

The Foundation publishes the Journal of Northeast Asian History (JNAH), a peer-reviewed semi-annual English-language journal that focuses on history-based approaches to Asian politics, cultures, economy and other fields to shed light on the historical realities of the Asian World. The Journal's geographical scope extends to other parts of the world which have significant relevancy to Asian history, thus charting globalism and localism from global perspectives.

In particular, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Korea-China Relations and Historical Configuration in Northeast Asia and (2) US-China Relations and Historical Issues in East Asia, both of which will help explore further how inter-state and intra-state matters were and are liked together to the historical development of continental East Asia and how the confluence of these external and internal factors have been making vital impact on the various mode of regional interaction in modern East Asia and beyond.

The Journal of Northeast Asian History calls for the submission of outstanding and unpublished papers for review and possible publication in Winter 2022. We invite colleagues to consider the Journal when seeking to publish ongoing research since we believe this can be an impetus for further scholarly collaboration in the future. For full consideration, please submit manuscripts by July 31, 2022 for Winter Issue.

Please contact us at jnah@nahf.or.kr or jnah.nahf@gmail.com should you have any questions regarding the journal, its submission process or subscription to it.
Thank you in advance for your attention and contributions.

'''CFP:''' “David versus Goliath - Souvereignty issues of small countries and regions neighboring large countries” European Journal of Chinese Studies 4 (2021)

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — the most consequential military conflict Europe has witnessed since the Second World War — has riveted the attention of the world. Almost inevitably people look to draw analogies — both historical and contemporary ones. One popular contemporary analogy is between Russia’s actions vis-à-vis Ukraine and mainland China’s approach to Taiwan.

In this issue, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Russia-Ukraine and (2) Mainland China-Taiwan. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine the two comparisons. We aim to bring together papers that (1) critically examine the differentiated situation of the two large authoriatarian nations; (2) discuss the ways in which two large authoritarian nations exert control on smaller neighbors; and (3) comparison with the approach of non-authoritarian large nations towards smaller neighbors; (4) consequences for world order, stability, peace and economical development.

Communication is among the best ways to resolve differences and strengthen cooperation. At an age when "anti-globalization" continues to characterize global situation; conservatism and ultra-nationalism are on the rise; and regional conflicts become frequent, cross-cultural communication seems to be particularly meaningful.

In this issue, we will welcome topics that concern (1) Chinese literature and (2) Western literature. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature in general or in particular works. We will welcome papers that (1) critically examine the different culture and cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature; (2) discusses the problems encountered in such cross-cutural communication; (3) what such communications contribute to Chinese or Western culture.

Minutes of the Kick-off meeting “EU JM Centre of Excellence for Digitalization of University Teaching” Nov 16, 2023, 10:00-11:30 am, HNU Tenglong Building, room 309
===Protocol: Martin Woesler===
===Participants===
Prof. Woesler, Prof. Jiang Lihua, Prof. Porter, PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Liu Rong, Zhouli Ziruo, Volunteer "Sari" Cai Xixiu.

===Next Meeting===
Friday Nov 24, 2023, 10:00 am room 309. For those who can only attend online: Zoom: http://bit.ly/ZOOMCOURSE

===Your contact people: The project staff===
Project Leader: Prof. Woesler, Project Assistants: PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Zhouli Ziruo, Liu Rong. The staff takes on the double task of conducting research (especially systematic literature reviews, surveys, field experiments testing different learning spaces or digital tools) and doing the administration (keeping the overview, watching the timeline, reports on the EU platform, reminding of deadlines, organizing meetings, inviting project members and external experts to joint papers, conferences, anthologies etc.).

===Salaries===
The project started in September and the project staff has already invested some work. So far, the payment of the salaries was not yet agreed to by the accounting office, they wanted more information. Still, there is a lot of work which needs to be done, including website and reports, until December. Therefore, it is important, that the accounting office already pays the monthly salaries to the project staff now in November.

===Budget===
The budget is quite large and except from the salary for the project staff contains several sub posts, like lump sum salary for students, travel reimbursement, equipment, website programming, conference costs etc. Prof. David Porter offered to design and create a EU and a CN website adhering to the respective policies.

===Personnel===
For the 5 Research Groups, the following heads were suggested:

#Regulation (Comparison) Liu Bai
#Experiences (Comparison) Aline
#Effectiveness of digital tools: David Porter, Ole Döring, Yang Zhiming

Explanation: (How to achieve learning outcomes of teaching in presence also with online or technology-enhanced teaching? Quality measurement.)
#Learning Spaces (Comparison): Jiang Lihua
#ChatGPT/PostEdit (Comparison C-EU): Martin Woesler

===Salary for Project Personnel and Project Members===
There is no monthly salary foreseen in the budget for all participants. But everybody who invests time in the project should be reimbursed. Since the publication of papers is the most important in the project, the project offers to reimburse all Professors and PhD candidates, who publish a paper to be reimbursed for 50 hours (each SCI, SSCI or A&HCI impact paper, corresponds to 1000 Euros for professors and 500 Euros for students), 25 hours (each CSSCI impact paper, corresponds to 500 Euros for professors and 250 Euros for students). Non PhD-Students (but Bachelor- or Master students) who participate, e.g. in the many time consuming tasks like literature review, surveys, field experiments, will be reimbursed with a lump sum per month and will be informed about the expected number of hours they are required to work.

===Credits and Acknowledgments===
Hunan Normal University needs to be mentioned as the affiliated university of both, the 1st and 2nd author. Also, the grant acknowledgement and disclaimer need to be printed with the paper, e.g. as a footnote or endnote. All posters, websites etc. need to display the EU Erasmus + co-funding logo.

===Things to do===
#Prof. Jiang: Please invite Prof. Liu Bai and Prof. Yang Zhiming.
#Prof. Jiang: Dean Situ and the Accounting office may contact you to reconfirm that the first money can be paid from the grant amount received.
#Ole: Please invite Prof. Aline Tedeschi
#Everybody: Please start to read the newest research papers on the topic. The library offers and EBSCO access. Ole can instruct student groups to perform different Systematic Literature Reviews. Languages should be at least Chinese and English. Some research questions should be developed through these literature reviews. Please keep in touch in the WeChat group and exchange your findings.

===Things to do for the project staff===
#Finalize report of old project (this part of the work is NOT paid by the new project) both on the EU platform as well as on the website http://jmchair.eu.
#Organize setting up a Website
#Get the frequent payments running with the accounting office in coordination with the College leadership.
#Conduct systematic literature reviews, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.
#Set up virtual working space on wiki and invite everybody to join. Publish there all findings.
#Invite everybody to the next meeting next Friday 10 am and collect points for the agenda from the participants.

P.S.: After the meeting, Prof. Jiang invited Prof. Woesler to join the current session of her Colloquium into room 410 (13:00-14:15). There he introduced the project again and offered the PhD candidates to join the project, preferrably assisting the head of research group 4, Prof. Jiang Lihua. PhD candidates are encouraged to join because they can make double use of their research for the project/publications and their thesis. Also, the participation in the project will be certified and can be used in the curriculum vitae for job applications.

===Budget and Salary===
For student volunteers the budget provides a total of 4,000 Yuan per month over the range of 3 years. Since there is a higher workload before and during conferences, we will have to be able to assign both salaries (e.g. for Cai Cixiu) and short-term contract salaries (e.g. for conferences). The project staff receives regular payments. The request for first payments has been submitted.

===Things to do===
#Sari: Please conduct a MikeCRM survey. Print the research questionnaire by Prof. Doering, and conduct the survey with the students who participated in the painting event. (When conducting the survey, the respondents’ initials with birth date (like WJG1001) can be used to code them, so that the privacy of respondents can be protected and we can compare and analyze developments.)
#Phd students: Please analyze the survey results of the last EU project, and upload the parts of the final report to the EU website (compare the answers of Prof. Woesler’s with the students’ answer and get the percentage both at the beginning and the end of the semester. If there is a progress, this would be a good result for the report.) Also copy documentation to website jmchair.eu.
#Prof. Porter: Thank you for submitting the first samples for a website. They are under review.
#Everybody: Start reading. Prepare systematic literature reviews on the project topic, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.

===Report by Martin Woesler on Grants for going to a French university as a visiting professor, chair professors===
For now, I recommend to already check out the grants to prepare a good application. Regarding the chair professor or visiting scholar programs for foreign professors in France, there are the following mostly financed by the EU, sometimes together with the French Ministry of Science (I have indicated all weblinks):

1. Chair Program with Universities and Grand Ecoles

In addition to receiving visiting professors or researchers, many French universities and Grandes Ecoles have chair programmes to welcome researchers from around the world. These programmes are usually designed for specific scientific problems and last for a limited time. The Collège de France in particular has developed a programme of excellence in which many chairs are reserved for foreign researchers or professors. www.college-de-france.fr.

2. Chair Programs with Research Establishments

Further, there are corporate chairs that enable foreign researchers to work with a company and research establishment for up to 2 years. This programme is financed by the French National Research Agency.

Everybody please prepare a 1 minute input what you found out so far from the literature, about experts we can invite and what you want to conduct research on.

===Input by David Porter===
Pardon any typos. As mentioned last time I would recommend we invite Prof. Luis Cordeiro-Rodrigues from Hunan University as he has experience with AI and ethics and is ‘right next door’ so to speak. I am happy to reach out to him but I think it would be good to have a formal CFP or fixed plan so that I can explain exactly what we would be invited for and when.

If invited speakers don’t have to be university-affiliated academics I would recommend Matt Sheehan (matt.sheehan@ceip.org) who is a fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a journal and involved with various think-tanks relating to global technology (including China - he is supposed to be fluent in Chinese). Zhu Junhua (junzhu@utu.fi https://www.utu.fi/en/people/junhua-zhu ) is a doctoral student at University of Turku, and so still an early career scholar but is doing work on AI governance and ethics who might be someone who can bridge the Europe-China divide. We all come across a lot of names, so it might be good to have a more settled idea of what our conference might focus on more narrowly?

I want to focus on AI and university teaching with a comparative focus on Europe and China. Even in the past few years there are thousands of relevant articles but I will focus on a few more specific and nuanced research goals in the next couple months. It will likely relate to the adoption of AI in educational institutions in both regions during and post-COVID, impact of AI on student engagement, and overall learning outcomes but I want to tie into ethical considerations. Can put this crudely:
1) How extensively is AI tech currently integrated into university teaching in Europe and China?
2) How do educators perceive and navigate the associated challenges with AI and their teaching practices? (ethics here).
3) What is the impact of AI on outcomes: academic performance, yes, but also student engagement and real learning outcomes (not just bullshit test scores) in European and Chinese universities?
4) What about institutional, cultural or contextual differences that shape the adoption and impact of AI in university teaching between Europe and China?

I am still working on Literature Review and narrowing down what lit to review since comprehensiveness is impossible/obsolete the day after it is done. I want to work this into something of a comparative analysis between Europe and China in terms of AI adoption and its impact on university teaching (not exactly that but something like that). Before next semester I want to have a tangible plan for some surveys to gather qualitative and quantitative data. I have a timeline to do the preliminary work by March and serious development for something that can be submitted for publication next Fall (optimistically October, absit omen).

Abstract

Ocean Acidification (OA) is an emerging environmental issue that is still largely unknown to the public and in its infancy in terms of educational strategies. OA teaching material should address the specific challenges that educators face while building learners’ understanding of OA. The objective of this study is two-fold. First, we identified the barriers to teaching OA as experienced by formal and informal marine educators. Second, we provided educators an opportunity to experience virtual reality and discuss how it could serve as a tool for face-to-face and distance learning to address the identified challenges. The findings shed light on four overarching themes of challenges to teaching OA: lack of science literacy, unprepared education field, complex and invisible nature of OA and lack of personal connection with the ocean. Marine educators consider empowerment, perspective-taking and visualization as the three principal avenues through which virtual reality may contribute to mitigating the challenges to teaching OA.

Abstract

Science achievement gaps exhibit racial disparities starting in primary grades and have been shown to persist through middle and high school. In turn, increasing positive attitudes toward science have been shown as one factor that affects academic achievement and motivation among K-12 students. Exploring novel ways that technology can influence diverse students’ attitudes toward science, and the design elements pertinent therein, is thus one prominent goal toward achieving science education for all. Leveraging the immersive nature of Virtual Reality 360 videos, we present a design-based research iteration testing how a novel technology-enhanced learning experience influenced close to 400 urban elementary students’ attitudes toward science. Using a two-way MANCOVA analysis, the data support that our design iteration emphasizing context-specific learningcan prime students that do not see science as relevant to them to change these attitudes in significantly positive ways. Implications are discussed around relationality, technology use in urban schools, and local contexts as learning resources.

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) systems offer effective support for online learning and teaching, including personalizing learning for students, automating instructors’ routine tasks, and powering adaptive assessments. However, while the opportunities for AI are promising, the impact of AI systems on the culture of, norms in, and expectations about interactions between students and instructors are still elusive. In online learning, learner–instructor interaction (inter alia, communication, support, and presence) has a profound impact on students’ satisfaction and learning outcomes. Thus, identifying how students and instructors perceive the impact of AI systems on their interaction is important to identify any gaps, challenges, or barriers preventing AI systems from achieving their intended potential and risking the safety of these interactions. To address this need for forward-looking decisions, we used Speed Dating with storyboards to analyze the authentic voices of 12 students and 11 instructors on diverse use cases of possible AI systems in online learning. Findings show that participants envision adopting AI systems in online learning can enable personalized learner–instructor interaction at scale but at the risk of violating social boundaries. Although AI systems have been positively recognized for improving the quantity and quality of communication, for providing just-in-time, personalized support for large-scale settings, and for improving the feeling of connection, there were concerns about responsibility, agency, and surveillance issues. These findings have implications for the design of AI systems to ensure explainability, human-in-the-loop, and careful data collection and presentation. Overall, contributions of this study include the design of AI system storyboards which are technically feasible and positively support learner–instructor interaction, capturing students’ and instructors’ concerns of AI systems through Speed Dating, and suggesting practical implications for maximizing the positive impact of AI systems while minimizing the negative ones

Abstract

The objective of personalized learning is to design an effective knowledge acquisition track that matches the learner's strengths and bypasses her weaknesses to ultimately meet her desired goal. This concept emerged several years ago and is being adopted by a rapidly-growing number of educational institutions around the globe. In recent years, the boost of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), together with the advances in big data analysis, has unfolded novel perspectives to enhance personalized education in numerous dimensions. By taking advantage of AI/ML methods, the educational platform precisely acquires the student's characteristics. This is done, in part, by observing the past experiences as well as analyzing the available big data through exploring the learners' features and similarities. It can, for example, recommend the most appropriate content among numerous accessible ones, advise a well-designed long-term curriculum, connect appropriate learners by suggestion, accurate performance evaluation, and the like. Still, several aspects of AI-based personalized education remain unexplored. These include, among others, compensating for the adverse effects of the absence of peers, creating and maintaining motivations for learning, increasing diversity, removing the biases induced by the data and algorithms, and the like. In this paper, while providing a brief review of state-of-the-art research, we investigate the challenges of AI/ML-based personalized education and discuss potential solutions.

Abstract

The amount of research on virtual reality learning tools increases with time. Despite the diverse environments and theoretical foundations, enough data have been accumulated in recent years to provide a systematic review of the methods used. We pose ten questions concerning the methodological aspects of these studies. We performed a search in three databases according to the PRISMA guidelines and evaluated several characteristics, with particular emphasis on researchers' methodological decisions. We found an increase over time in the number of studies on the effectiveness of VR-based learning. We also identified shortcomings related to how the duration and number of training sessions are reported. We believe that these two factors could affect the effectiveness of VR-based training. Furthermore, when using the Kirkpatrick model, a significant imbalance can be observed in favor of outcomes from the ‘Reaction’ and ‘Learning’ levels compared to the ‘Behavior’ and ‘Results’ levels. The last of these was not used in any of the 330 reviewed studies. These results highlight the importance of research on the effectiveness of VR training. Taking into account the identified methodological shortcomings will allow for more significant research on this topic in the future.

Abstract

This paper aims to critically examine the potentials and challenges of developing AIenhanced CALL-software to enhance adaptive, individualized, and, in certain respects, intelligent practice in the foreign language classroom. The following section provides an introductory, practical discussion of terms, methods, and common application types of (narrow) AIs in foreign language learning processes. We will then, as the main focus of this paper, address features of intelligent practice in the foreign language classroom, the possibilities of using AI to create adaptive learning environments, and typical architectural elements of intelligent learning systems. Subsequently, this paper provides insights into two current research and development projects. The article concludes with a utopian outlook into the foreign language classroom of the year 2040.

Abstract

We conducted a systematic literature review on automated grading and feedback tools for programming education. We analysed 121 research papers from 2017 to 2021 inclusive and categorised them based on skills assessed, approach, language paradigm, degree of automation and evaluation techniques. Most papers assess the correctness of assignments in object-oriented languages. Typically, these tools use a dynamic technique, primarily unit testing, to provide grades and feedback to the students or static analysis techniques to compare a submission with a reference solution or with a set of correct student submissions. However, these techniques’ feedback is often limited to whether the unit tests have passed or failed, the expected and actual output, or how they differ from the reference solution. Furthermore, few tools assess the maintainability, readability or documentation of the source code, with most using static analysis techniques, such as code quality metrics, in conjunction with grading correctness. Additionally, we found that most tools offered fully automated assessment to allow for near-instantaneous feedback and multiple resubmissions, which can increase student satisfaction and provide them with more opportunities to succeed. In terms of techniques used to evaluate the tools’ performance, most papers primarily use student surveys or compare the automatic assessment tools to grades or feedback provided by human graders. However, because the evaluation dataset is frequently unavailable, it is more difficult to reproduce results and compare tools to a collection of common assignments.

Abstract

Student attrition poses a major challenge to academic institutions, funding bodies and students. With the rise of Big Data and predictive analytics, a growing body of work in higher education research has demonstrated the feasibility of predicting student dropout from readily available macro-level (e.g., socio-demographics or early performance metrics) and micro-level data (e.g., logins to learning management systems). Yet, the existing work has largely overlooked a critical meso-level element of student success known to drive retention: students’ experience at university and their social embeddedness within their cohort. In partnership with a mobile application that facilitates communication between students and universities, we collected both (1) institutional macro-level data and (2) behavioral micro and meso-level engagement data (e.g., the quantity and quality of interactions with university services and events as well as with other students) to predict dropout after the first semester. Analyzing the records of 50,095 students from four US universities and community colleges, we demonstrate that the combined macro and meso-level data can predict dropout with high levels of predictive performance (average AUC across linear and non-linear models = 78%; max AUC = 88%). Behavioral engagement variables representing students’ experience at university (e.g., network centrality, app engagement, event ratings) were found to add incremental predictive power beyond institutional variables (e.g., GPA or ethnicity). Finally, we highlight the generalizability of our results by showing that models trained on one university can predict retention at another university with reasonably high levels of predictive performance.

Abstract

The assimilation of artificial intelligence into education is an inevitable phenomenon. Intelligent tools provide opportunities such as personalized instruction, automated assessment and, last but not least, teaching with virtual assistants or chatbots. Chatbots and other virtual assistants have been on the market for years and have been used for educational purposes on various Q&A platforms. ChatGPT, however, can be considered as an intellectual revolution of chatbots that have been released so far. ChatGPT has taken the concept of artificial intelligence to a new level and it was inevitable that it would make its debut in education. However, in schools, this level and relative novelty can bring not only benefits but also dangers. In this article, we discuss the potential of ChatGPT in the educational process. We look at the impact it can have on students, pointing out both the positives and the negatives. We then look at the opportunities for teachers. Finally, conclusions are drawn and suggestions are made as to the aspects that teachers and students need to adhere to in order to effectively implement ChatGPT in their everyday education.

Abstract

In higher education, low teacher-student ratios can make it difficult for students to receive immediate and interactive help. Chatbots, increasingly used in various scenarios such as customer service, work productivity, and healthcare, might be one way of helping instructors better meet student needs. However, few empirical studies in the field of Information Systems (IS) have investigated pedagogical chatbot efficacy in higher education and fewer still discuss their potential challenges and drawbacks. In this research we address this gap in the IS literature by exploring the opportunities, challenges, efficacy, and ethical concerns of using chatbots as pedagogical tools in business education. In this two study project, we conducted a chatbot-guided interview with 215 undergraduate students to understand student attitudes regarding the potential benefits and challenges of using chatbots as intelligent student assistants. Our findings revealed the potential for chatbots to help students learn basic content in a responsive, interactive, and confidential way. Findings also provided insights into student learning needs which we then used to design and develop a new, experimental chatbot assistant to teach basic AI concepts to 195 students. Results of this second study suggest chatbots can be engaging and responsive conversational learning tools for teaching basic concepts and for providing educational resources. Herein, we provide the results of both studies and discuss possible promising opportunities and ethical implications of using chatbots to support inclusive learning.

===Input by Sari===
For the ai education prevalence, but that ‘s only in the cities and small towns. It give impression to itself in regional and rural inequalities. It is obviously reflected in the lack of educational resources in the areas below the county level, the low investment in education, and the low level of system construction. The quality and level of education in poor areas is relatively poor, leaving children vulnerable to disparities. Although in the cities,there is not every student has access to this technology. Only in parts of the school and rich families. To solve these problems, the cooperation of the government and the education sector, as well as the charity sector, is needed. The rich need not only to benefit from it but also to play an important role in it rather than contributing to it.

=PREPARATION OF WACS 8 2024 in Poznan/Athens/Changsha=

Ideas to professionalize our annual conference and to win more people to participate
#we only recommend a conference hotel with a conference discount, but the participants book directly with the hotel. This helps us to lower the conference fees to maybe 190€. Also, we only accept international bank payment directly to the association‘s account.
#We should send a flyer to us universities in order to get some PhD candidates, who can present part of their Thesis. And of course scholars as a main target group.
#Last time we also improved: double blind peer review,
# issuing travel stipends,
#awards in different categories,
#chairs and discussants for all panels,
#hybrid format.

With budget cut over the years, except for the few very well-endowed private univs, in the US, most professors only have 1 trip paid. They will choose the most relevant and established one or two. Graduate students basically pay for themselves, so they only go to AAS and/or AAS Regional conferences.

With zoom, you have more flexibility.

Dan's perspectives are from those in linguistics, a much smaller group than the scope WACS advertises.

1. As a very young asso., even with high level and strong backing, you cannot compete with the established ones.

2. Your initial vision seemed to be a platform to bring in prc sinologists who don't work with the Eng lang.

3. But you also include Eng lang papers.

4. The last few years show that W European & N Am scholars are not attracted to the conference.

A) Some feedback seems to be this is a crazy group of people, a nicer way of saying they are unprofessional and disorganised.

B) The dates may be a part of it but less critical than the messiness.

5) So two issues:

A) the volume and national variety of participants; and

B) the asso's administration of the conferences.

6) Possible remedies:

A) you need a systematic way of proactively reaching out to universities and colleges all over the world, by sending the departments information about the coming year's conference & links, etc.

You have to do this every year. Your conference's scope covers culture, history, ling., lit, phil, pol sci, etc., so to each of these departments, a notice could be sent.

You can do so with a master list by approaching a certain number in each continent the first year, then adding a few more for that country the next year, and so on.

You can even target specific regions/ continents in different years. You are in Eastern Europe, it's a good time to get them to participate. Maybe alongside, this year, it is SE Asia. (Next year, it could be S. Am & Australia as specific targets.)

B) The asso's org: herein lies the foundation of the problem. Until you look hard into it and take serious steps to overhaul it, putting in place functional committees with members who put in time and energy to administer and operate the asso., hence the conference as well, even if (A) is successful one year, it will evaporate in a handful of years.

7) In short, it is necessary to prioritise the structural/ organisational reform in administration & operation, before the change of dates.

8) Since changing the dates in a big way may not bring in many more new participants, you may want to hold it off.

A) You may want to have someone to do a quick research to see when, e.g. Asia & SE Asia is most unlikely to attend a conf, then when in S Am, etc., and the reasons. You get an overview, then you decide.

*Lihua Jiang helps to solve the following problems: JM grant (the first amount has to be paid to the participating teachers), Seed grant (will reimburse flight costs and student assistants' salaries), admission of international student Markus Mueller to PhD program, admission of Olha Woesler to BA program to collect more certificates for teaching at FSC
=Successfully completed tasks=
*We have submitted the [[Interview by Wan Shuyuan 2022]], it got more than 1 million readers and was republished on several platforms including the website of the Chinese Embassy in Germany
*The JM budget of 40.000 Euros was moved from "Research" to "Education" 教务处 and paid to the participating teachers. Now we need to provide evidence for more teachings so that the remaining 10.000 Euros and 16.667 Euros matching funds from the university can be spent and 10,000 Euros will be reimbursed upon delivery of the report. Contact person: WeChat ID chiryhuo 霍丽 Lei Li，传神湖南高校的联系人 (Aim: Get the funds assigned to Martin Woesler, then paid to the participating teachers)

=Staff tasks=
==Martin Woesler==
*Send everyone a sample of the journal and the vetting (review) of the Chinese essays.
*Prepare 2 MOOC contents and produce films
==Duan Yuanyuan==
'''Funds Management'''
*Submit a new Seed Grant 启动资金 to Administration: So in the new budget, we should have maybe 55.000 Yuan travel and (quarantine) hotel cost, 10.000 Yuan office 309 和 415 设备 (比如冰箱、饮水机), 30.000 Yuan salary for assistants, 5.000 Yuan budget for books and decoration (statues, paintings) we buy for the two walls and bookshelfs in both offices. If it is not possible to buy fridge etc. from it, we can plan this money differently. I am afraid we will spend all the money totally soon. Therefore, I will have to apply for a second budget maybe for 2023. I don't know if they grant me a second budget.
*The EU Grant requires to spend 67.000 Euros first, submit spending receipts and then apply for reimbursement of remaining 10.000 Euros. This means that the university has to release the 40.000 Euros now, is ready to spend the remaining 27.000 Euros then and get reimbursed only 10.000 Euros later.
*Read into the technical requirements of managing EU funds, this includes registering on web sites, filling out forms, submitting information and requesting fundings, controlling the funds arriving at the HUNNU account, forwarding it to the recipients at HUNNU, coordinating with financial department of HUNNU.

The Foundation publishes the Journal of Northeast Asian History (JNAH), a peer-reviewed semi-annual English-language journal that focuses on history-based approaches to Asian politics, cultures, economy and other fields to shed light on the historical realities of the Asian World. The Journal's geographical scope extends to other parts of the world which have significant relevancy to Asian history, thus charting globalism and localism from global perspectives.

In particular, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Korea-China Relations and Historical Configuration in Northeast Asia and (2) US-China Relations and Historical Issues in East Asia, both of which will help explore further how inter-state and intra-state matters were and are liked together to the historical development of continental East Asia and how the confluence of these external and internal factors have been making vital impact on the various mode of regional interaction in modern East Asia and beyond.

The Journal of Northeast Asian History calls for the submission of outstanding and unpublished papers for review and possible publication in Winter 2022. We invite colleagues to consider the Journal when seeking to publish ongoing research since we believe this can be an impetus for further scholarly collaboration in the future. For full consideration, please submit manuscripts by July 31, 2022 for Winter Issue.

Please contact us at jnah@nahf.or.kr or jnah.nahf@gmail.com should you have any questions regarding the journal, its submission process or subscription to it.
Thank you in advance for your attention and contributions.

'''CFP:''' “David versus Goliath - Souvereignty issues of small countries and regions neighboring large countries” European Journal of Chinese Studies 4 (2021)

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — the most consequential military conflict Europe has witnessed since the Second World War — has riveted the attention of the world. Almost inevitably people look to draw analogies — both historical and contemporary ones. One popular contemporary analogy is between Russia’s actions vis-à-vis Ukraine and mainland China’s approach to Taiwan.

In this issue, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Russia-Ukraine and (2) Mainland China-Taiwan. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine the two comparisons. We aim to bring together papers that (1) critically examine the differentiated situation of the two large authoriatarian nations; (2) discuss the ways in which two large authoritarian nations exert control on smaller neighbors; and (3) comparison with the approach of non-authoritarian large nations towards smaller neighbors; (4) consequences for world order, stability, peace and economical development.

Communication is among the best ways to resolve differences and strengthen cooperation. At an age when "anti-globalization" continues to characterize global situation; conservatism and ultra-nationalism are on the rise; and regional conflicts become frequent, cross-cultural communication seems to be particularly meaningful.

In this issue, we will welcome topics that concern (1) Chinese literature and (2) Western literature. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature in general or in particular works. We will welcome papers that (1) critically examine the different culture and cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature; (2) discusses the problems encountered in such cross-cutural communication; (3) what such communications contribute to Chinese or Western culture.

Minutes of the Kick-off meeting “EU JM Centre of Excellence for Digitalization of University Teaching” Nov 16, 2023, 10:00-11:30 am, HNU Tenglong Building, room 309
===Protocol: Martin Woesler===
===Participants===
Prof. Woesler, Prof. Jiang Lihua, Prof. Porter, PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Liu Rong, Zhouli Ziruo, Volunteer "Sari" Cai Xixiu.

===Next Meeting===
Friday Nov 24, 2023, 10:00 am room 309. For those who can only attend online: Zoom: http://bit.ly/ZOOMCOURSE

===Your contact people: The project staff===
Project Leader: Prof. Woesler, Project Assistants: PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Zhouli Ziruo, Liu Rong. The staff takes on the double task of conducting research (especially systematic literature reviews, surveys, field experiments testing different learning spaces or digital tools) and doing the administration (keeping the overview, watching the timeline, reports on the EU platform, reminding of deadlines, organizing meetings, inviting project members and external experts to joint papers, conferences, anthologies etc.).

===Salaries===
The project started in September and the project staff has already invested some work. So far, the payment of the salaries was not yet agreed to by the accounting office, they wanted more information. Still, there is a lot of work which needs to be done, including website and reports, until December. Therefore, it is important, that the accounting office already pays the monthly salaries to the project staff now in November.

===Budget===
The budget is quite large and except from the salary for the project staff contains several sub posts, like lump sum salary for students, travel reimbursement, equipment, website programming, conference costs etc. Prof. David Porter offered to design and create a EU and a CN website adhering to the respective policies.

===Personnel===
For the 5 Research Groups, the following heads were suggested:

#Regulation (Comparison) Liu Bai
#Experiences (Comparison) Aline
#Effectiveness of digital tools: David Porter, Ole Döring, Yang Zhiming

Explanation: (How to achieve learning outcomes of teaching in presence also with online or technology-enhanced teaching? Quality measurement.)
#Learning Spaces (Comparison): Jiang Lihua
#ChatGPT/PostEdit (Comparison C-EU): Martin Woesler

===Salary for Project Personnel and Project Members===
There is no monthly salary foreseen in the budget for all participants. But everybody who invests time in the project should be reimbursed. Since the publication of papers is the most important in the project, the project offers to reimburse all Professors and PhD candidates, who publish a paper to be reimbursed for 50 hours (each SCI, SSCI or A&HCI impact paper, corresponds to 1000 Euros for professors and 500 Euros for students), 25 hours (each CSSCI impact paper, corresponds to 500 Euros for professors and 250 Euros for students). Non PhD-Students (but Bachelor- or Master students) who participate, e.g. in the many time consuming tasks like literature review, surveys, field experiments, will be reimbursed with a lump sum per month and will be informed about the expected number of hours they are required to work.

===Credits and Acknowledgments===
Hunan Normal University needs to be mentioned as the affiliated university of both, the 1st and 2nd author. Also, the grant acknowledgement and disclaimer need to be printed with the paper, e.g. as a footnote or endnote. All posters, websites etc. need to display the EU Erasmus + co-funding logo.

===Things to do===
#Prof. Jiang: Please invite Prof. Liu Bai and Prof. Yang Zhiming.
#Prof. Jiang: Dean Situ and the Accounting office may contact you to reconfirm that the first money can be paid from the grant amount received.
#Ole: Please invite Prof. Aline Tedeschi
#Everybody: Please start to read the newest research papers on the topic. The library offers and EBSCO access. Ole can instruct student groups to perform different Systematic Literature Reviews. Languages should be at least Chinese and English. Some research questions should be developed through these literature reviews. Please keep in touch in the WeChat group and exchange your findings.

===Things to do for the project staff===
#Finalize report of old project (this part of the work is NOT paid by the new project) both on the EU platform as well as on the website http://jmchair.eu.
#Organize setting up a Website
#Get the frequent payments running with the accounting office in coordination with the College leadership.
#Conduct systematic literature reviews, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.
#Set up virtual working space on wiki and invite everybody to join. Publish there all findings.
#Invite everybody to the next meeting next Friday 10 am and collect points for the agenda from the participants.

P.S.: After the meeting, Prof. Jiang invited Prof. Woesler to join the current session of her Colloquium into room 410 (13:00-14:15). There he introduced the project again and offered the PhD candidates to join the project, preferrably assisting the head of research group 4, Prof. Jiang Lihua. PhD candidates are encouraged to join because they can make double use of their research for the project/publications and their thesis. Also, the participation in the project will be certified and can be used in the curriculum vitae for job applications.

Minutes of the second weekly meeting “EU JM Centre of Excellence for Digitalization of University Teaching” Nov 24, 2023, 10:00-11:30 am, HNNU Tenglong Building, room 309

===Protocal: Liu Rong, edited: Martin Woesler===

===Participants===
Prof. Woesler, Prof. Porter, Prof. Ma Nake, PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Liu Rong, "Sari" Cai Xixiu.

===Next Meeting===
Scheduled for Tuesday Nov 29, 16:00 and 18:15 Chinese time room 309. For those who can only attend online: Tencent Meeting:https://meeting.tencent.com/dm/bCQdfgGlezZ1

===Budget and Salary===
For student volunteers the budget provides a total of 4,000 Yuan per month over the range of 3 years. Since there is a higher workload before and during conferences, we will have to be able to assign both salaries (e.g. for Cai Cixiu) and short-term contract salaries (e.g. for conferences). The project staff receives regular payments. The request for first payments has been submitted.

===Things to do===
#Sari: Please conduct a MikeCRM survey. Print the research questionnaire by Prof. Doering, and conduct the survey with the students who participated in the painting event. (When conducting the survey, the respondents’ initials with birth date (like WJG1001) can be used to code them, so that the privacy of respondents can be protected and we can compare and analyze developments.)
#Phd students: Please analyze the survey results of the last EU project, and upload the parts of the final report to the EU website (compare the answers of Prof. Woesler’s with the students’ answer and get the percentage both at the beginning and the end of the semester. If there is a progress, this would be a good result for the report.) Also copy documentation to website jmchair.eu.
#Prof. Porter: Thank you for submitting the first samples for a website. They are under review.
#Everybody: Start reading. Prepare systematic literature reviews on the project topic, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.

===Report by Martin Woesler on Grants for going to a French university as a visiting professor, chair professors===
For now, I recommend to already check out the grants to prepare a good application. Regarding the chair professor or visiting scholar programs for foreign professors in France, there are the following mostly financed by the EU, sometimes together with the French Ministry of Science (I have indicated all weblinks):

1. Chair Program with Universities and Grand Ecoles

In addition to receiving visiting professors or researchers, many French universities and Grandes Ecoles have chair programmes to welcome researchers from around the world. These programmes are usually designed for specific scientific problems and last for a limited time. The Collège de France in particular has developed a programme of excellence in which many chairs are reserved for foreign researchers or professors. www.college-de-france.fr.

2. Chair Programs with Research Establishments

Further, there are corporate chairs that enable foreign researchers to work with a company and research establishment for up to 2 years. This programme is financed by the French National Research Agency.

We meet both in person in office #309 and online on Zoom: https://zoom.us/j/5739416744?pwd=c3h5L0NnY0xCWjlEMWhuNTBMbE92UT09

Everybody please prepare a 1 minute input what you found out so far from the literature, about experts we can invite and what you want to conduct research on.

===Input by David Porter===
Pardon any typos. As mentioned last time I would recommend we invite Prof. Luis Cordeiro-Rodrigues from Hunan University as he has experience with AI and ethics and is ‘right next door’ so to speak. I am happy to reach out to him but I think it would be good to have a formal CFP or fixed plan so that I can explain exactly what we would be invited for and when.

If invited speakers don’t have to be university-affiliated academics I would recommend Matt Sheehan (matt.sheehan@ceip.org) who is a fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a journal and involved with various think-tanks relating to global technology (including China - he is supposed to be fluent in Chinese). Zhu Junhua (junzhu@utu.fi https://www.utu.fi/en/people/junhua-zhu ) is a doctoral student at University of Turku, and so still an early career scholar but is doing work on AI governance and ethics who might be someone who can bridge the Europe-China divide. We all come across a lot of names, so it might be good to have a more settled idea of what our conference might focus on more narrowly?

I want to focus on AI and university teaching with a comparative focus on Europe and China. Even in the past few years there are thousands of relevant articles but I will focus on a few more specific and nuanced research goals in the next couple months. It will likely relate to the adoption of AI in educational institutions in both regions during and post-COVID, impact of AI on student engagement, and overall learning outcomes but I want to tie into ethical considerations. Can put this crudely:
1) How extensively is AI tech currently integrated into university teaching in Europe and China?
2) How do educators perceive and navigate the associated challenges with AI and their teaching practices? (ethics here).
3) What is the impact of AI on outcomes: academic performance, yes, but also student engagement and real learning outcomes (not just bullshit test scores) in European and Chinese universities?
4) What about institutional, cultural or contextual differences that shape the adoption and impact of AI in university teaching between Europe and China?

I am still working on Literature Review and narrowing down what lit to review since comprehensiveness is impossible/obsolete the day after it is done. I want to work this into something of a comparative analysis between Europe and China in terms of AI adoption and its impact on university teaching (not exactly that but something like that). Before next semester I want to have a tangible plan for some surveys to gather qualitative and quantitative data. I have a timeline to do the preliminary work by March and serious development for something that can be submitted for publication next Fall (optimistically October, absit omen).

Abstract

Ocean Acidification (OA) is an emerging environmental issue that is still largely unknown to the public and in its infancy in terms of educational strategies. OA teaching material should address the specific challenges that educators face while building learners’ understanding of OA. The objective of this study is two-fold. First, we identified the barriers to teaching OA as experienced by formal and informal marine educators. Second, we provided educators an opportunity to experience virtual reality and discuss how it could serve as a tool for face-to-face and distance learning to address the identified challenges. The findings shed light on four overarching themes of challenges to teaching OA: lack of science literacy, unprepared education field, complex and invisible nature of OA and lack of personal connection with the ocean. Marine educators consider empowerment, perspective-taking and visualization as the three principal avenues through which virtual reality may contribute to mitigating the challenges to teaching OA.

Science achievement gaps exhibit racial disparities starting in primary grades and have been shown to persist through middle and high school. In turn, increasing positive attitudes toward science have been shown as one factor that affects academic achievement and motivation among K-12 students. Exploring novel ways that technology can influence diverse students’ attitudes toward science, and the design elements pertinent therein, is thus one prominent goal toward achieving science education for all. Leveraging the immersive nature of Virtual Reality 360 videos, we present a design-based research iteration testing how a novel technology-enhanced learning experience influenced close to 400 urban elementary students’ attitudes toward science. Using a two-way MANCOVA analysis, the data support that our design iteration emphasizing context-specific learningcan prime students that do not see science as relevant to them to change these attitudes in significantly positive ways. Implications are discussed around relationality, technology use in urban schools, and local contexts as learning resources.

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) systems offer effective support for online learning and teaching, including personalizing learning for students, automating instructors’ routine tasks, and powering adaptive assessments. However, while the opportunities for AI are promising, the impact of AI systems on the culture of, norms in, and expectations about interactions between students and instructors are still elusive. In online learning, learner–instructor interaction (inter alia, communication, support, and presence) has a profound impact on students’ satisfaction and learning outcomes. Thus, identifying how students and instructors perceive the impact of AI systems on their interaction is important to identify any gaps, challenges, or barriers preventing AI systems from achieving their intended potential and risking the safety of these interactions. To address this need for forward-looking decisions, we used Speed Dating with storyboards to analyze the authentic voices of 12 students and 11 instructors on diverse use cases of possible AI systems in online learning. Findings show that participants envision adopting AI systems in online learning can enable personalized learner–instructor interaction at scale but at the risk of violating social boundaries. Although AI systems have been positively recognized for improving the quantity and quality of communication, for providing just-in-time, personalized support for large-scale settings, and for improving the feeling of connection, there were concerns about responsibility, agency, and surveillance issues. These findings have implications for the design of AI systems to ensure explainability, human-in-the-loop, and careful data collection and presentation. Overall, contributions of this study include the design of AI system storyboards which are technically feasible and positively support learner–instructor interaction, capturing students’ and instructors’ concerns of AI systems through Speed Dating, and suggesting practical implications for maximizing the positive impact of AI systems while minimizing the negative ones

Abstract

The objective of personalized learning is to design an effective knowledge acquisition track that matches the learner's strengths and bypasses her weaknesses to ultimately meet her desired goal. This concept emerged several years ago and is being adopted by a rapidly-growing number of educational institutions around the globe. In recent years, the boost of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), together with the advances in big data analysis, has unfolded novel perspectives to enhance personalized education in numerous dimensions. By taking advantage of AI/ML methods, the educational platform precisely acquires the student's characteristics. This is done, in part, by observing the past experiences as well as analyzing the available big data through exploring the learners' features and similarities. It can, for example, recommend the most appropriate content among numerous accessible ones, advise a well-designed long-term curriculum, connect appropriate learners by suggestion, accurate performance evaluation, and the like. Still, several aspects of AI-based personalized education remain unexplored. These include, among others, compensating for the adverse effects of the absence of peers, creating and maintaining motivations for learning, increasing diversity, removing the biases induced by the data and algorithms, and the like. In this paper, while providing a brief review of state-of-the-art research, we investigate the challenges of AI/ML-based personalized education and discuss potential solutions.

Abstract

The amount of research on virtual reality learning tools increases with time. Despite the diverse environments and theoretical foundations, enough data have been accumulated in recent years to provide a systematic review of the methods used. We pose ten questions concerning the methodological aspects of these studies. We performed a search in three databases according to the PRISMA guidelines and evaluated several characteristics, with particular emphasis on researchers' methodological decisions. We found an increase over time in the number of studies on the effectiveness of VR-based learning. We also identified shortcomings related to how the duration and number of training sessions are reported. We believe that these two factors could affect the effectiveness of VR-based training. Furthermore, when using the Kirkpatrick model, a significant imbalance can be observed in favor of outcomes from the ‘Reaction’ and ‘Learning’ levels compared to the ‘Behavior’ and ‘Results’ levels. The last of these was not used in any of the 330 reviewed studies. These results highlight the importance of research on the effectiveness of VR training. Taking into account the identified methodological shortcomings will allow for more significant research on this topic in the future.

Abstract

This paper aims to critically examine the potentials and challenges of developing AIenhanced CALL-software to enhance adaptive, individualized, and, in certain respects, intelligent practice in the foreign language classroom. The following section provides an introductory, practical discussion of terms, methods, and common application types of (narrow) AIs in foreign language learning processes. We will then, as the main focus of this paper, address features of intelligent practice in the foreign language classroom, the possibilities of using AI to create adaptive learning environments, and typical architectural elements of intelligent learning systems. Subsequently, this paper provides insights into two current research and development projects. The article concludes with a utopian outlook into the foreign language classroom of the year 2040.

Abstract

We conducted a systematic literature review on automated grading and feedback tools for programming education. We analysed 121 research papers from 2017 to 2021 inclusive and categorised them based on skills assessed, approach, language paradigm, degree of automation and evaluation techniques. Most papers assess the correctness of assignments in object-oriented languages. Typically, these tools use a dynamic technique, primarily unit testing, to provide grades and feedback to the students or static analysis techniques to compare a submission with a reference solution or with a set of correct student submissions. However, these techniques’ feedback is often limited to whether the unit tests have passed or failed, the expected and actual output, or how they differ from the reference solution. Furthermore, few tools assess the maintainability, readability or documentation of the source code, with most using static analysis techniques, such as code quality metrics, in conjunction with grading correctness. Additionally, we found that most tools offered fully automated assessment to allow for near-instantaneous feedback and multiple resubmissions, which can increase student satisfaction and provide them with more opportunities to succeed. In terms of techniques used to evaluate the tools’ performance, most papers primarily use student surveys or compare the automatic assessment tools to grades or feedback provided by human graders. However, because the evaluation dataset is frequently unavailable, it is more difficult to reproduce results and compare tools to a collection of common assignments.

Abstract

Student attrition poses a major challenge to academic institutions, funding bodies and students. With the rise of Big Data and predictive analytics, a growing body of work in higher education research has demonstrated the feasibility of predicting student dropout from readily available macro-level (e.g., socio-demographics or early performance metrics) and micro-level data (e.g., logins to learning management systems). Yet, the existing work has largely overlooked a critical meso-level element of student success known to drive retention: students’ experience at university and their social embeddedness within their cohort. In partnership with a mobile application that facilitates communication between students and universities, we collected both (1) institutional macro-level data and (2) behavioral micro and meso-level engagement data (e.g., the quantity and quality of interactions with university services and events as well as with other students) to predict dropout after the first semester. Analyzing the records of 50,095 students from four US universities and community colleges, we demonstrate that the combined macro and meso-level data can predict dropout with high levels of predictive performance (average AUC across linear and non-linear models = 78%; max AUC = 88%). Behavioral engagement variables representing students’ experience at university (e.g., network centrality, app engagement, event ratings) were found to add incremental predictive power beyond institutional variables (e.g., GPA or ethnicity). Finally, we highlight the generalizability of our results by showing that models trained on one university can predict retention at another university with reasonably high levels of predictive performance.

===Report on deliverable 1.1 „Website“ due December 2024===
===Input by Sari===
For the ai education prevalence, but that ‘s only in the cities and small towns. It give impression to itself in regional and rural inequalities. It is obviously reflected in the lack of educational resources in the areas below the county level, the low investment in education, and the low level of system construction. The quality and level of education in poor areas is relatively poor, leaving children vulnerable to disparities. Although in the cities,there is not every student has access to this technology. Only in parts of the school and rich families. To solve these problems, the cooperation of the government and the education sector, as well as the charity sector, is needed. The rich need not only to benefit from it but also to play an important role in it rather than contributing to it.

=PREPARATION OF WACS 8 2024 in Poznan/Athens/Changsha=

Ideas to professionalize our annual conference and to win more people to participate
#we only recommend a conference hotel with a conference discount, but the participants book directly with the hotel. This helps us to lower the conference fees to maybe 190€. Also, we only accept international bank payment directly to the association‘s account.
#We should send a flyer to us universities in order to get some PhD candidates, who can present part of their Thesis. And of course scholars as a main target group.
#Last time we also improved: double blind peer review,
# issuing travel stipends,
#awards in different categories,
#chairs and discussants for all panels,
#hybrid format.

With budget cut over the years, except for the few very well-endowed private univs, in the US, most professors only have 1 trip paid. They will choose the most relevant and established one or two. Graduate students basically pay for themselves, so they only go to AAS and/or AAS Regional conferences.

With zoom, you have more flexibility.

Dan's perspectives are from those in linguistics, a much smaller group than the scope WACS advertises.

1. As a very young asso., even with high level and strong backing, you cannot compete with the established ones.

2. Your initial vision seemed to be a platform to bring in prc sinologists who don't work with the Eng lang.

3. But you also include Eng lang papers.

4. The last few years show that W European & N Am scholars are not attracted to the conference.

A) Some feedback seems to be this is a crazy group of people, a nicer way of saying they are unprofessional and disorganised.

B) The dates may be a part of it but less critical than the messiness.

5) So two issues:

A) the volume and national variety of participants; and

B) the asso's administration of the conferences.

6) Possible remedies:

A) you need a systematic way of proactively reaching out to universities and colleges all over the world, by sending the departments information about the coming year's conference & links, etc.

You have to do this every year. Your conference's scope covers culture, history, ling., lit, phil, pol sci, etc., so to each of these departments, a notice could be sent.

You can do so with a master list by approaching a certain number in each continent the first year, then adding a few more for that country the next year, and so on.

You can even target specific regions/ continents in different years. You are in Eastern Europe, it's a good time to get them to participate. Maybe alongside, this year, it is SE Asia. (Next year, it could be S. Am & Australia as specific targets.)

B) The asso's org: herein lies the foundation of the problem. Until you look hard into it and take serious steps to overhaul it, putting in place functional committees with members who put in time and energy to administer and operate the asso., hence the conference as well, even if (A) is successful one year, it will evaporate in a handful of years.

7) In short, it is necessary to prioritise the structural/ organisational reform in administration & operation, before the change of dates.

8) Since changing the dates in a big way may not bring in many more new participants, you may want to hold it off.

A) You may want to have someone to do a quick research to see when, e.g. Asia & SE Asia is most unlikely to attend a conf, then when in S Am, etc., and the reasons. You get an overview, then you decide.

*Submit a new Seed Grant 启动资金 to Administration: So in the new budget, we should have maybe 55.000 Yuan travel and (quarantine) hotel cost, 10.000 Yuan office 309 和 415 设备 (比如冰箱、饮水机), 30.000 Yuan salary for assistants, 5.000 Yuan budget for books and decoration (statues, paintings) we buy for the two walls and bookshelfs in both offices. If it is not possible to buy fridge etc. from it, we can plan this money differently. I am afraid we will spend all the money totally soon. Therefore, I will have to apply for a second budget maybe for 2023. I don't know if they grant me a second budget.
*The EU Grant requires to spend 67.000 Euros first, submit spending receipts and then apply for reimbursement of remaining 10.000 Euros. This means that the university has to release the 40.000 Euros now, is ready to spend the remaining 27.000 Euros then and get reimbursed only 10.000 Euros later.
*Read into the technical requirements of managing EU funds, this includes registering on web sites, filling out forms, submitting information and requesting fundings, controlling the funds arriving at the HUNNU account, forwarding it to the recipients at HUNNU, coordinating with financial department of HUNNU.

Type: Call for Papers

Location: Korea South

Subject Fields: Asian History / Studies, Chinese History / Studies, East Asian History / Studies, Japanese History / Studies, Korean History / Studies

CFP: The Journal of Northeast Asian History Vol. 19-1

Dear Colleagues,

The Northeast Asian History Foundation continues to expand its interaction with scholars specializing in Asian history and related fields outside East Asia. The Foundation is also strengthening its ties with leading institutions and scholars by encouraging interdisciplinary and comparative approaches to research on geopolitical, cultural, educational, and other issues in East Asia.

The Foundation publishes the Journal of Northeast Asian History (JNAH), a peer-reviewed semi-annual English-language journal that focuses on history-based approaches to Asian politics, cultures, economy and other fields to shed light on the historical realities of the Asian World. The Journal's geographical scope extends to other parts of the world which have significant relevancy to Asian history, thus charting globalism and localism from global perspectives.

In particular, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Korea-China Relations and Historical Configuration in Northeast Asia and (2) US-China Relations and Historical Issues in East Asia, both of which will help explore further how inter-state and intra-state matters were and are liked together to the historical development of continental East Asia and how the confluence of these external and internal factors have been making vital impact on the various mode of regional interaction in modern East Asia and beyond.

The Journal of Northeast Asian History calls for the submission of outstanding and unpublished papers for review and possible publication in Winter 2022. We invite colleagues to consider the Journal when seeking to publish ongoing research since we believe this can be an impetus for further scholarly collaboration in the future. For full consideration, please submit manuscripts by July 31, 2022 for Winter Issue.

Please contact us at jnah@nahf.or.kr or jnah.nahf@gmail.com should you have any questions regarding the journal, its submission process or subscription to it.
Thank you in advance for your attention and contributions.

'''CFP:''' “David versus Goliath - Souvereignty issues of small countries and regions neighboring large countries” European Journal of Chinese Studies 4 (2021)

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — the most consequential military conflict Europe has witnessed since the Second World War — has riveted the attention of the world. Almost inevitably people look to draw analogies — both historical and contemporary ones. One popular contemporary analogy is between Russia’s actions vis-à-vis Ukraine and mainland China’s approach to Taiwan.

In this issue, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Russia-Ukraine and (2) Mainland China-Taiwan. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine the two comparisons. We aim to bring together papers that (1) critically examine the differentiated situation of the two large authoriatarian nations; (2) discuss the ways in which two large authoritarian nations exert control on smaller neighbors; and (3) comparison with the approach of non-authoritarian large nations towards smaller neighbors; (4) consequences for world order, stability, peace and economical development.

Communication is among the best ways to resolve differences and strengthen cooperation. At an age when "anti-globalization" continues to characterize global situation; conservatism and ultra-nationalism are on the rise; and regional conflicts become frequent, cross-cultural communication seems to be particularly meaningful.

In this issue, we will welcome topics that concern (1) Chinese literature and (2) Western literature. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature in general or in particular works. We will welcome papers that (1) critically examine the different culture and cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature; (2) discusses the problems encountered in such cross-cutural communication; (3) what such communications contribute to Chinese or Western culture.

There is no monthly salary foreseen in the budget for all participants. But everybody who invests time in the project should be reimbursed. Since the publication of papers is the most important in the project, the project offers to reimburse all Professors and PhD candidates, who publish a paper to be reimbursed for 50 hours (each SCI, SSCI or A&HCI impact paper, corresponds to 1000 Euros for professors and 500 Euros for students), 25 hours (each CSSCI impact paper, corresponds to 500 Euros for professors and 250 Euros for students). Non PhD-Students (but Bachelor- or Master students) who participate, e.g. in the many time consuming tasks like literature review, surveys, field experiments, will be reimbursed with a lump sum per month and will be informed about the expected number of hours they are required to work.

===Credits and Acknowledgments===
Hunan Normal University needs to be mentioned as the affiliated university of both, the 1st and 2nd author. Also, the grant acknowledgement and disclaimer need to be printed with the paper, e.g. as a footnote or endnote. All posters, websites etc. need to display the EU Erasmus + co-funding logo.

===Budget and Salary===
For student volunteers the budget provides a total of 4,000 Yuan per month over the range of 3 years. Since there is a higher workload before and during conferences, we will have to be able to assign both salaries (e.g. for Cai Cixiu) and short-term contract salaries (e.g. for conferences). The project staff receives regular payments. The request for first payments has been submitted.

===Things to do===
#Sari: Please conduct a MikeCRM survey. Print the research questionnaire by Prof. Doering, and conduct the survey with the students who participated in the painting event. (When conducting the survey, the respondents’ initials with birth date (like WJG1001) can be used to code them, so that the privacy of respondents can be protected and we can compare and analyze developments.)
#Phd students: Please analyze the survey results of the last EU project, and upload the parts of the final report to the EU website (compare the answers of Prof. Woesler’s with the students’ answer and get the percentage both at the beginning and the end of the semester. If there is a progress, this would be a good result for the report.) Also copy documentation to website jmchair.eu.
#Prof. Porter: Thank you for submitting the first samples for a website. They are under review.
#Everybody: Start reading. Prepare systematic literature reviews on the project topic, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.

===Report by Martin Woesler on Grants for going to a French university as a visiting professor, chair professors===
For now, I recommend to already check out the grants to prepare a good application. Regarding the chair professor or visiting scholar programs for foreign professors in France, there are the following mostly financed by the EU, sometimes together with the French Ministry of Science (I have indicated all weblinks):

1. Chair Program with Universities and Grand Ecoles

In addition to receiving visiting professors or researchers, many French universities and Grandes Ecoles have chair programmes to welcome researchers from around the world. These programmes are usually designed for specific scientific problems and last for a limited time. The Collège de France in particular has developed a programme of excellence in which many chairs are reserved for foreign researchers or professors. www.college-de-france.fr.

2. Chair Programs with Research Establishments

Further, there are corporate chairs that enable foreign researchers to work with a company and research establishment for up to 2 years. This programme is financed by the French National Research Agency.

We meet both in person in office #309 and online on Zoom: https://zoom.us/j/5739416744?pwd=c3h5L0NnY0xCWjlEMWhuNTBMbE92UT09

Everybody please prepare a 1 minute input what you found out so far from the literature, about experts we can invite and what you want to conduct research on.

===Input by David Porter===
Pardon any typos. As mentioned last time I would recommend we invite Prof. Luis Cordeiro-Rodrigues from Hunan University as he has experience with AI and ethics and is ‘right next door’ so to speak. I am happy to reach out to him but I think it would be good to have a formal CFP or fixed plan so that I can explain exactly what we would be invited for and when.

If invited speakers don’t have to be university-affiliated academics I would recommend Matt Sheehan (matt.sheehan@ceip.org) who is a fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a journal and involved with various think-tanks relating to global technology (including China - he is supposed to be fluent in Chinese). Zhu Junhua (junzhu@utu.fi https://www.utu.fi/en/people/junhua-zhu ) is a doctoral student at University of Turku, and so still an early career scholar but is doing work on AI governance and ethics who might be someone who can bridge the Europe-China divide. We all come across a lot of names, so it might be good to have a more settled idea of what our conference might focus on more narrowly?

I want to focus on AI and university teaching with a comparative focus on Europe and China. Even in the past few years there are thousands of relevant articles but I will focus on a few more specific and nuanced research goals in the next couple months. It will likely relate to the adoption of AI in educational institutions in both regions during and post-COVID, impact of AI on student engagement, and overall learning outcomes but I want to tie into ethical considerations. Can put this crudely:
1) How extensively is AI tech currently integrated into university teaching in Europe and China?
2) How do educators perceive and navigate the associated challenges with AI and their teaching practices? (ethics here).
3) What is the impact of AI on outcomes: academic performance, yes, but also student engagement and real learning outcomes (not just bullshit test scores) in European and Chinese universities?
4) What about institutional, cultural or contextual differences that shape the adoption and impact of AI in university teaching between Europe and China?

I am still working on Literature Review and narrowing down what lit to review since comprehensiveness is impossible/obsolete the day after it is done. I want to work this into something of a comparative analysis between Europe and China in terms of AI adoption and its impact on university teaching (not exactly that but something like that). Before next semester I want to have a tangible plan for some surveys to gather qualitative and quantitative data. I have a timeline to do the preliminary work by March and serious development for something that can be submitted for publication next Fall (optimistically October, absit omen).

Participatory research on using virtual reality to teach ocean acidification: a study in the marine education communityENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION RESEARCHFauville, G., Queiroz, A. M., Hambrick, L., Brown, B. A., Bailenson, J. N.2020

Abstract

Ocean Acidification (OA) is an emerging environmental issue that is still largely unknown to the public and in its infancy in terms of educational strategies. OA teaching material should address the specific challenges that educators face while building learners’ understanding of OA. The objective of this study is two-fold. First, we identified the barriers to teaching OA as experienced by formal and informal marine educators. Second, we provided educators an opportunity to experience virtual reality and discuss how it could serve as a tool for face-to-face and distance learning to address the identified challenges. The findings shed light on four overarching themes of challenges to teaching OA: lack of science literacy, unprepared education field, complex and invisible nature of OA and lack of personal connection with the ocean. Marine educators consider empowerment, perspective-taking and visualization as the three principal avenues through which virtual reality may contribute to mitigating the challenges to teaching OA.

Designing for Relationality in Virtual Reality: Context-Specific Learning as a Primer for Content Relevancy JOURNAL OF SCIENCE EDUCATION AND TECHNOLOGYBoda, P. A., Brown, B.2020

Abstract

Science achievement gaps exhibit racial disparities starting in primary grades and have been shown to persist through middle and high school. In turn, increasing positive attitudes toward science have been shown as one factor that affects academic achievement and motivation among K-12 students. Exploring novel ways that technology can influence diverse students’ attitudes toward science, and the design elements pertinent therein, is thus one prominent goal toward achieving science education for all. Leveraging the immersive nature of Virtual Reality 360 videos, we present a design-based research iteration testing how a novel technology-enhanced learning experience influenced close to 400 urban elementary students’ attitudes toward science. Using a two-way MANCOVA analysis, the data support that our design iteration emphasizing context-specific learningcan prime students that do not see science as relevant to them to change these attitudes in significantly positive ways. Implications are discussed around relationality, technology use in urban schools, and local contexts as learning resources.

The impact of artificial intelligence on learner–instructor interaction in online learning
K Seo, J Tang, I Roll, S Fels, D Yoon
International journal of educational technology in higher education 18 (1), 1-23

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) systems offer effective support for online learning and teaching, including personalizing learning for students, automating instructors’ routine tasks, and powering adaptive assessments. However, while the opportunities for AI are promising, the impact of AI systems on the culture of, norms in, and expectations about interactions between students and instructors are still elusive. In online learning, learner–instructor interaction (inter alia, communication, support, and presence) has a profound impact on students’ satisfaction and learning outcomes. Thus, identifying how students and instructors perceive the impact of AI systems on their interaction is important to identify any gaps, challenges, or barriers preventing AI systems from achieving their intended potential and risking the safety of these interactions. To address this need for forward-looking decisions, we used Speed Dating with storyboards to analyze the authentic voices of 12 students and 11 instructors on diverse use cases of possible AI systems in online learning. Findings show that participants envision adopting AI systems in online learning can enable personalized learner–instructor interaction at scale but at the risk of violating social boundaries. Although AI systems have been positively recognized for improving the quantity and quality of communication, for providing just-in-time, personalized support for large-scale settings, and for improving the feeling of connection, there were concerns about responsibility, agency, and surveillance issues. These findings have implications for the design of AI systems to ensure explainability, human-in-the-loop, and careful data collection and presentation. Overall, contributions of this study include the design of AI system storyboards which are technically feasible and positively support learner–instructor interaction, capturing students’ and instructors’ concerns of AI systems through Speed Dating, and suggesting practical implications for maximizing the positive impact of AI systems while minimizing the negative ones

Personalized Education in the AI Era: What to Expect Next?
Setareh Maghsudi, Andrew Lan, Jie Xu, Mihaela van der Schaar

https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2101.10074

Abstract

The objective of personalized learning is to design an effective knowledge acquisition track that matches the learner's strengths and bypasses her weaknesses to ultimately meet her desired goal. This concept emerged several years ago and is being adopted by a rapidly-growing number of educational institutions around the globe. In recent years, the boost of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), together with the advances in big data analysis, has unfolded novel perspectives to enhance personalized education in numerous dimensions. By taking advantage of AI/ML methods, the educational platform precisely acquires the student's characteristics. This is done, in part, by observing the past experiences as well as analyzing the available big data through exploring the learners' features and similarities. It can, for example, recommend the most appropriate content among numerous accessible ones, advise a well-designed long-term curriculum, connect appropriate learners by suggestion, accurate performance evaluation, and the like. Still, several aspects of AI-based personalized education remain unexplored. These include, among others, compensating for the adverse effects of the absence of peers, creating and maintaining motivations for learning, increasing diversity, removing the biases induced by the data and algorithms, and the like. In this paper, while providing a brief review of state-of-the-art research, we investigate the challenges of AI/ML-based personalized education and discuss potential solutions.

Abstract

The amount of research on virtual reality learning tools increases with time. Despite the diverse environments and theoretical foundations, enough data have been accumulated in recent years to provide a systematic review of the methods used. We pose ten questions concerning the methodological aspects of these studies. We performed a search in three databases according to the PRISMA guidelines and evaluated several characteristics, with particular emphasis on researchers' methodological decisions. We found an increase over time in the number of studies on the effectiveness of VR-based learning. We also identified shortcomings related to how the duration and number of training sessions are reported. We believe that these two factors could affect the effectiveness of VR-based training. Furthermore, when using the Kirkpatrick model, a significant imbalance can be observed in favor of outcomes from the ‘Reaction’ and ‘Learning’ levels compared to the ‘Behavior’ and ‘Results’ levels. The last of these was not used in any of the 330 reviewed studies. These results highlight the importance of research on the effectiveness of VR training. Taking into account the identified methodological shortcomings will allow for more significant research on this topic in the future.

Abstract

This paper aims to critically examine the potentials and challenges of developing AIenhanced CALL-software to enhance adaptive, individualized, and, in certain respects, intelligent practice in the foreign language classroom. The following section provides an introductory, practical discussion of terms, methods, and common application types of (narrow) AIs in foreign language learning processes. We will then, as the main focus of this paper, address features of intelligent practice in the foreign language classroom, the possibilities of using AI to create adaptive learning environments, and typical architectural elements of intelligent learning systems. Subsequently, this paper provides insights into two current research and development projects. The article concludes with a utopian outlook into the foreign language classroom of the year 2040.

===Report on deliverable 1.1 „Website“ due December 2024===
===Input by Sari===
For the ai education prevalence, but that ‘s only in the cities and small towns. It give impression to itself in regional and rural inequalities. It is obviously reflected in the lack of educational resources in the areas below the county level, the low investment in education, and the low level of system construction. The quality and level of education in poor areas is relatively poor, leaving children vulnerable to disparities. Although in the cities,there is not every student has access to this technology. Only in parts of the school and rich families. To solve these problems, the cooperation of the government and the education sector, as well as the charity sector, is needed. The rich need not only to benefit from it but also to play an important role in it rather than contributing to it.

=PREPARATION OF WACS 8 2024 in Poznan/Athens/Changsha=

Ideas to professionalize our annual conference and to win more people to participate
#we only recommend a conference hotel with a conference discount, but the participants book directly with the hotel. This helps us to lower the conference fees to maybe 190€. Also, we only accept international bank payment directly to the association‘s account.
#We should send a flyer to us universities in order to get some PhD candidates, who can present part of their Thesis. And of course scholars as a main target group.
#Last time we also improved: double blind peer review,
# issuing travel stipends,
#awards in different categories,
#chairs and discussants for all panels,
#hybrid format.

With budget cut over the years, except for the few very well-endowed private univs, in the US, most professors only have 1 trip paid. They will choose the most relevant and established one or two. Graduate students basically pay for themselves, so they only go to AAS and/or AAS Regional conferences.

With zoom, you have more flexibility.

Dan's perspectives are from those in linguistics, a much smaller group than the scope WACS advertises.

1. As a very young asso., even with high level and strong backing, you cannot compete with the established ones.

2. Your initial vision seemed to be a platform to bring in prc sinologists who don't work with the Eng lang.

3. But you also include Eng lang papers.

4. The last few years show that W European & N Am scholars are not attracted to the conference.

A) Some feedback seems to be this is a crazy group of people, a nicer way of saying they are unprofessional and disorganised.

B) The dates may be a part of it but less critical than the messiness.

5) So two issues:

A) the volume and national variety of participants; and

B) the asso's administration of the conferences.

6) Possible remedies:

A) you need a systematic way of proactively reaching out to universities and colleges all over the world, by sending the departments information about the coming year's conference & links, etc.

You have to do this every year. Your conference's scope covers culture, history, ling., lit, phil, pol sci, etc., so to each of these departments, a notice could be sent.

You can do so with a master list by approaching a certain number in each continent the first year, then adding a few more for that country the next year, and so on.

You can even target specific regions/ continents in different years. You are in Eastern Europe, it's a good time to get them to participate. Maybe alongside, this year, it is SE Asia. (Next year, it could be S. Am & Australia as specific targets.)

B) The asso's org: herein lies the foundation of the problem. Until you look hard into it and take serious steps to overhaul it, putting in place functional committees with members who put in time and energy to administer and operate the asso., hence the conference as well, even if (A) is successful one year, it will evaporate in a handful of years.

7) In short, it is necessary to prioritise the structural/ organisational reform in administration & operation, before the change of dates.

8) Since changing the dates in a big way may not bring in many more new participants, you may want to hold it off.

A) You may want to have someone to do a quick research to see when, e.g. Asia & SE Asia is most unlikely to attend a conf, then when in S Am, etc., and the reasons. You get an overview, then you decide.

=Successfully completed tasks=
*We have submitted the [[Interview by Wan Shuyuan 2022]], it got more than 1 million readers and was republished on several platforms including the website of the Chinese Embassy in Germany
*The JM budget of 40.000 Euros was moved from "Research" to "Education" 教务处 and paid to the participating teachers. Now we need to provide evidence for more teachings so that the remaining 10.000 Euros and 16.667 Euros matching funds from the university can be spent and 10,000 Euros will be reimbursed upon delivery of the report. Contact person: WeChat ID chiryhuo 霍丽 Lei Li，传神湖南高校的联系人 (Aim: Get the funds assigned to Martin Woesler, then paid to the participating teachers)

=Staff tasks=

*Send everyone a sample of the journal and the vetting (review) of the Chinese essays.
*Prepare 2 MOOC contents and produce films
==Duan Yuanyuan==
'''Funds Management'''
*Submit a new Seed Grant 启动资金 to Administration: So in the new budget, we should have maybe 55.000 Yuan travel and (quarantine) hotel cost, 10.000 Yuan office 309 和 415 设备 (比如冰箱、饮水机), 30.000 Yuan salary for assistants, 5.000 Yuan budget for books and decoration (statues, paintings) we buy for the two walls and bookshelfs in both offices. If it is not possible to buy fridge etc. from it, we can plan this money differently. I am afraid we will spend all the money totally soon. Therefore, I will have to apply for a second budget maybe for 2023. I don't know if they grant me a second budget.
*The EU Grant requires to spend 67.000 Euros first, submit spending receipts and then apply for reimbursement of remaining 10.000 Euros. This means that the university has to release the 40.000 Euros now, is ready to spend the remaining 27.000 Euros then and get reimbursed only 10.000 Euros later.
*Read into the technical requirements of managing EU funds, this includes registering on web sites, filling out forms, submitting information and requesting fundings, controlling the funds arriving at the HUNNU account, forwarding it to the recipients at HUNNU, coordinating with financial department of HUNNU.

Type: Call for Papers

Location: Korea South

Subject Fields: Asian History / Studies, Chinese History / Studies, East Asian History / Studies, Japanese History / Studies, Korean History / Studies

CFP: The Journal of Northeast Asian History Vol. 19-1

Dear Colleagues,

The Northeast Asian History Foundation continues to expand its interaction with scholars specializing in Asian history and related fields outside East Asia. The Foundation is also strengthening its ties with leading institutions and scholars by encouraging interdisciplinary and comparative approaches to research on geopolitical, cultural, educational, and other issues in East Asia.

The Foundation publishes the Journal of Northeast Asian History (JNAH), a peer-reviewed semi-annual English-language journal that focuses on history-based approaches to Asian politics, cultures, economy and other fields to shed light on the historical realities of the Asian World. The Journal's geographical scope extends to other parts of the world which have significant relevancy to Asian history, thus charting globalism and localism from global perspectives.

In particular, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Korea-China Relations and Historical Configuration in Northeast Asia and (2) US-China Relations and Historical Issues in East Asia, both of which will help explore further how inter-state and intra-state matters were and are liked together to the historical development of continental East Asia and how the confluence of these external and internal factors have been making vital impact on the various mode of regional interaction in modern East Asia and beyond.

The Journal of Northeast Asian History calls for the submission of outstanding and unpublished papers for review and possible publication in Winter 2022. We invite colleagues to consider the Journal when seeking to publish ongoing research since we believe this can be an impetus for further scholarly collaboration in the future. For full consideration, please submit manuscripts by July 31, 2022 for Winter Issue.

Please contact us at jnah@nahf.or.kr or jnah.nahf@gmail.com should you have any questions regarding the journal, its submission process or subscription to it.
Thank you in advance for your attention and contributions.

'''CFP:''' “David versus Goliath - Souvereignty issues of small countries and regions neighboring large countries” European Journal of Chinese Studies 4 (2021)

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — the most consequential military conflict Europe has witnessed since the Second World War — has riveted the attention of the world. Almost inevitably people look to draw analogies — both historical and contemporary ones. One popular contemporary analogy is between Russia’s actions vis-à-vis Ukraine and mainland China’s approach to Taiwan.

In this issue, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Russia-Ukraine and (2) Mainland China-Taiwan. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine the two comparisons. We aim to bring together papers that (1) critically examine the differentiated situation of the two large authoriatarian nations; (2) discuss the ways in which two large authoritarian nations exert control on smaller neighbors; and (3) comparison with the approach of non-authoritarian large nations towards smaller neighbors; (4) consequences for world order, stability, peace and economical development.

Communication is among the best ways to resolve differences and strengthen cooperation. At an age when "anti-globalization" continues to characterize global situation; conservatism and ultra-nationalism are on the rise; and regional conflicts become frequent, cross-cultural communication seems to be particularly meaningful.

In this issue, we will welcome topics that concern (1) Chinese literature and (2) Western literature. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature in general or in particular works. We will welcome papers that (1) critically examine the different culture and cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature; (2) discusses the problems encountered in such cross-cutural communication; (3) what such communications contribute to Chinese or Western culture.

Minutes of the Kick-off meeting “EU JM Centre of Excellence for Digitalization of University Teaching” Nov 16, 2023, 10:00-11:30 am, HNU Tenglong Building, room 309
===Protocol: Martin Woesler===
===Participants===
Prof. Woesler, Prof. Jiang Lihua, Prof. Porter, PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Liu Rong, Zhouli Ziruo, Volunteer "Sari" Cai Xixiu.

===Next Meeting===
Friday Nov 24, 2023, 10:00 am room 309. For those who can only attend online: Zoom: http://bit.ly/ZOOMCOURSE

===Your contact people: The project staff===
Project Leader: Prof. Woesler, Project Assistants: PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Zhouli Ziruo, Liu Rong. The staff takes on the double task of conducting research (especially systematic literature reviews, surveys, field experiments testing different learning spaces or digital tools) and doing the administration (keeping the overview, watching the timeline, reports on the EU platform, reminding of deadlines, organizing meetings, inviting project members and external experts to joint papers, conferences, anthologies etc.).

===Salaries===
The project started in September and the project staff has already invested some work. So far, the payment of the salaries was not yet agreed to by the accounting office, they wanted more information. Still, there is a lot of work which needs to be done, including website and reports, until December. Therefore, it is important, that the accounting office already pays the monthly salaries to the project staff now in November.

===Budget===
The budget is quite large and except from the salary for the project staff contains several sub posts, like lump sum salary for students, travel reimbursement, equipment, website programming, conference costs etc. Prof. David Porter offered to design and create a EU and a CN website adhering to the respective policies.

===Personnel===
For the 5 Research Groups, the following heads were suggested:

#Regulation (Comparison) Liu Bai
#Experiences (Comparison) Aline
#Effectiveness of digital tools: David Porter, Ole Döring, Yang Zhiming

Explanation: (How to achieve learning outcomes of teaching in presence also with online or technology-enhanced teaching? Quality measurement.)
#Learning Spaces (Comparison): Jiang Lihua
#ChatGPT/PostEdit (Comparison C-EU): Martin Woesler

===Salary for Project Personnel and Project Members===
There is no monthly salary foreseen in the budget for all participants. But everybody who invests time in the project should be reimbursed. Since the publication of papers is the most important in the project, the project offers to reimburse all Professors and PhD candidates, who publish a paper to be reimbursed for 50 hours (each SCI, SSCI or A&HCI impact paper, corresponds to 1000 Euros for professors and 500 Euros for students), 25 hours (each CSSCI impact paper, corresponds to 500 Euros for professors and 250 Euros for students). Non PhD-Students (but Bachelor- or Master students) who participate, e.g. in the many time consuming tasks like literature review, surveys, field experiments, will be reimbursed with a lump sum per month and will be informed about the expected number of hours they are required to work.

===Credits and Acknowledgments===
Hunan Normal University needs to be mentioned as the affiliated university of both, the 1st and 2nd author. Also, the grant acknowledgement and disclaimer need to be printed with the paper, e.g. as a footnote or endnote. All posters, websites etc. need to display the EU Erasmus + co-funding logo.

===Things to do===
#Prof. Jiang: Please invite Prof. Liu Bai and Prof. Yang Zhiming.
#Prof. Jiang: Dean Situ and the Accounting office may contact you to reconfirm that the first money can be paid from the grant amount received.
#Ole: Please invite Prof. Aline Tedeschi
#Everybody: Please start to read the newest research papers on the topic. The library offers and EBSCO access. Ole can instruct student groups to perform different Systematic Literature Reviews. Languages should be at least Chinese and English. Some research questions should be developed through these literature reviews. Please keep in touch in the WeChat group and exchange your findings.

===Things to do for the project staff===
#Finalize report of old project (this part of the work is NOT paid by the new project) both on the EU platform as well as on the website http://jmchair.eu.
#Organize setting up a Website
#Get the frequent payments running with the accounting office in coordination with the College leadership.
#Conduct systematic literature reviews, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.
#Set up virtual working space on wiki and invite everybody to join. Publish there all findings.
#Invite everybody to the next meeting next Friday 10 am and collect points for the agenda from the participants.

P.S.: After the meeting, Prof. Jiang invited Prof. Woesler to join the current session of her Colloquium into room 410 (13:00-14:15). There he introduced the project again and offered the PhD candidates to join the project, preferrably assisting the head of research group 4, Prof. Jiang Lihua. PhD candidates are encouraged to join because they can make double use of their research for the project/publications and their thesis. Also, the participation in the project will be certified and can be used in the curriculum vitae for job applications.

===Budget and Salary===
For student volunteers the budget provides a total of 4,000 Yuan per month over the range of 3 years. Since there is a higher workload before and during conferences, we will have to be able to assign both salaries (e.g. for Cai Cixiu) and short-term contract salaries (e.g. for conferences). The project staff receives regular payments. The request for first payments has been submitted.

===Things to do===
#Sari: Please conduct a MikeCRM survey. Print the research questionnaire by Prof. Doering, and conduct the survey with the students who participated in the painting event. (When conducting the survey, the respondents’ initials with birth date (like WJG1001) can be used to code them, so that the privacy of respondents can be protected and we can compare and analyze developments.)
#Phd students: Please analyze the survey results of the last EU project, and upload the parts of the final report to the EU website (compare the answers of Prof. Woesler’s with the students’ answer and get the percentage both at the beginning and the end of the semester. If there is a progress, this would be a good result for the report.) Also copy documentation to website jmchair.eu.
#Prof. Porter: Thank you for submitting the first samples for a website. They are under review.
#Everybody: Start reading. Prepare systematic literature reviews on the project topic, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.

===Report by Martin Woesler on Grants for going to a French university as a visiting professor, chair professors===
For now, I recommend to already check out the grants to prepare a good application. Regarding the chair professor or visiting scholar programs for foreign professors in France, there are the following mostly financed by the EU, sometimes together with the French Ministry of Science (I have indicated all weblinks):

1. Chair Program with Universities and Grand Ecoles

In addition to receiving visiting professors or researchers, many French universities and Grandes Ecoles have chair programmes to welcome researchers from around the world. These programmes are usually designed for specific scientific problems and last for a limited time. The Collège de France in particular has developed a programme of excellence in which many chairs are reserved for foreign researchers or professors. www.college-de-france.fr.

2. Chair Programs with Research Establishments

Further, there are corporate chairs that enable foreign researchers to work with a company and research establishment for up to 2 years. This programme is financed by the French National Research Agency.

====Next Meeting: Jan 9, 2024====
==Meeting Jan 9, 2024 18:15 Chinese time (11:15 European time)==

We meet both in person in office #309 and online on Zoom: https://zoom.us/j/5739416744?pwd=c3h5L0NnY0xCWjlEMWhuNTBMbE92UT09

Everybody please prepare a 1 minute input what you found out so far from the literature, about experts we can invite and what you want to conduct research on.

===Input by David Porter===
Pardon any typos. As mentioned last time I would recommend we invite Prof. Luis Cordeiro-Rodrigues from Hunan University as he has experience with AI and ethics and is ‘right next door’ so to speak. I am happy to reach out to him but I think it would be good to have a formal CFP or fixed plan so that I can explain exactly what we would be invited for and when.

If invited speakers don’t have to be university-affiliated academics I would recommend Matt Sheehan (matt.sheehan@ceip.org) who is a fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a journal and involved with various think-tanks relating to global technology (including China - he is supposed to be fluent in Chinese). Zhu Junhua (junzhu@utu.fi https://www.utu.fi/en/people/junhua-zhu ) is a doctoral student at University of Turku, and so still an early career scholar but is doing work on AI governance and ethics who might be someone who can bridge the Europe-China divide. We all come across a lot of names, so it might be good to have a more settled idea of what our conference might focus on more narrowly?

I want to focus on AI and university teaching with a comparative focus on Europe and China. Even in the past few years there are thousands of relevant articles but I will focus on a few more specific and nuanced research goals in the next couple months. It will likely relate to the adoption of AI in educational institutions in both regions during and post-COVID, impact of AI on student engagement, and overall learning outcomes but I want to tie into ethical considerations. Can put this crudely:
1) How extensively is AI tech currently integrated into university teaching in Europe and China?
2) How do educators perceive and navigate the associated challenges with AI and their teaching practices? (ethics here).
3) What is the impact of AI on outcomes: academic performance, yes, but also student engagement and real learning outcomes (not just bullshit test scores) in European and Chinese universities?
4) What about institutional, cultural or contextual differences that shape the adoption and impact of AI in university teaching between Europe and China?

I am still working on Literature Review and narrowing down what lit to review since comprehensiveness is impossible/obsolete the day after it is done. I want to work this into something of a comparative analysis between Europe and China in terms of AI adoption and its impact on university teaching (not exactly that but something like that). Before next semester I want to have a tangible plan for some surveys to gather qualitative and quantitative data. I have a timeline to do the preliminary work by March and serious development for something that can be submitted for publication next Fall (optimistically October, absit omen).

Participatory research on using virtual reality to teach ocean acidification: a study in the marine education communityENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION RESEARCHFauville, G., Queiroz, A. M., Hambrick, L., Brown, B. A., Bailenson, J. N.2020
Abstract
Ocean Acidification (OA) is an emerging environmental issue that is still largely unknown to the public and in its infancy in terms of educational strategies. OA teaching material should address the specific challenges that educators face while building learners’ understanding of OA. The objective of this study is two-fold. First, we identified the barriers to teaching OA as experienced by formal and informal marine educators. Second, we provided educators an opportunity to experience virtual reality and discuss how it could serve as a tool for face-to-face and distance learning to address the identified challenges. The findings shed light on four overarching themes of challenges to teaching OA: lack of science literacy, unprepared education field, complex and invisible nature of OA and lack of personal connection with the ocean. Marine educators consider empowerment, perspective-taking and visualization as the three principal avenues through which virtual reality may contribute to mitigating the challenges to teaching OA.

Designing for Relationality in Virtual Reality: Context-Specific Learning as a Primer for Content Relevancy JOURNAL OF SCIENCE EDUCATION AND TECHNOLOGYBoda, P. A., Brown, B.2020
Abstract
Science achievement gaps exhibit racial disparities starting in primary grades and have been shown to persist through middle and high school. In turn, increasing positive attitudes toward science have been shown as one factor that affects academic achievement and motivation among K-12 students. Exploring novel ways that technology can influence diverse students’ attitudes toward science, and the design elements pertinent therein, is thus one prominent goal toward achieving science education for all. Leveraging the immersive nature of Virtual Reality 360 videos, we present a design-based research iteration testing how a novel technology-enhanced learning experience influenced close to 400 urban elementary students’ attitudes toward science. Using a two-way MANCOVA analysis, the data support that our design iteration emphasizing context-specific learningcan prime students that do not see science as relevant to them to change these attitudes in significantly positive ways. Implications are discussed around relationality, technology use in urban schools, and local contexts as learning resources.

The impact of artificial intelligence on learner–instructor interaction in online learning
K Seo, J Tang, I Roll, S Fels, D Yoon
International journal of educational technology in higher education 18 (1), 1-23

Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) systems offer effective support for online learning and teaching, including personalizing learning for students, automating instructors’ routine tasks, and powering adaptive assessments. However, while the opportunities for AI are promising, the impact of AI systems on the culture of, norms in, and expectations about interactions between students and instructors are still elusive. In online learning, learner–instructor interaction (inter alia, communication, support, and presence) has a profound impact on students’ satisfaction and learning outcomes. Thus, identifying how students and instructors perceive the impact of AI systems on their interaction is important to identify any gaps, challenges, or barriers preventing AI systems from achieving their intended potential and risking the safety of these interactions. To address this need for forward-looking decisions, we used Speed Dating with storyboards to analyze the authentic voices of 12 students and 11 instructors on diverse use cases of possible AI systems in online learning. Findings show that participants envision adopting AI systems in online learning can enable personalized learner–instructor interaction at scale but at the risk of violating social boundaries. Although AI systems have been positively recognized for improving the quantity and quality of communication, for providing just-in-time, personalized support for large-scale settings, and for improving the feeling of connection, there were concerns about responsibility, agency, and surveillance issues. These findings have implications for the design of AI systems to ensure explainability, human-in-the-loop, and careful data collection and presentation. Overall, contributions of this study include the design of AI system storyboards which are technically feasible and positively support learner–instructor interaction, capturing students’ and instructors’ concerns of AI systems through Speed Dating, and suggesting practical implications for maximizing the positive impact of AI systems while minimizing the negative ones

Personalized Education in the AI Era: What to Expect Next?
Setareh Maghsudi, Andrew Lan, Jie Xu, Mihaela van der Schaar

Abstract

The objective of personalized learning is to design an effective knowledge acquisition track that matches the learner's strengths and bypasses her weaknesses to ultimately meet her desired goal. This concept emerged several years ago and is being adopted by a rapidly-growing number of educational institutions around the globe. In recent years, the boost of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), together with the advances in big data analysis, has unfolded novel perspectives to enhance personalized education in numerous dimensions. By taking advantage of AI/ML methods, the educational platform precisely acquires the student's characteristics. This is done, in part, by observing the past experiences as well as analyzing the available big data through exploring the learners' features and similarities. It can, for example, recommend the most appropriate content among numerous accessible ones, advise a well-designed long-term curriculum, connect appropriate learners by suggestion, accurate performance evaluation, and the like. Still, several aspects of AI-based personalized education remain unexplored. These include, among others, compensating for the adverse effects of the absence of peers, creating and maintaining motivations for learning, increasing diversity, removing the biases induced by the data and algorithms, and the like. In this paper, while providing a brief review of state-of-the-art research, we investigate the challenges of AI/ML-based personalized education and discuss potential solutions.

Abstract
The amount of research on virtual reality learning tools increases with time. Despite the diverse environments and theoretical foundations, enough data have been accumulated in recent years to provide a systematic review of the methods used. We pose ten questions concerning the methodological aspects of these studies. We performed a search in three databases according to the PRISMA guidelines and evaluated several characteristics, with particular emphasis on researchers' methodological decisions. We found an increase over time in the number of studies on the effectiveness of VR-based learning. We also identified shortcomings related to how the duration and number of training sessions are reported. We believe that these two factors could affect the effectiveness of VR-based training. Furthermore, when using the Kirkpatrick model, a significant imbalance can be observed in favor of outcomes from the ‘Reaction’ and ‘Learning’ levels compared to the ‘Behavior’ and ‘Results’ levels. The last of these was not used in any of the 330 reviewed studies. These results highlight the importance of research on the effectiveness of VR training. Taking into account the identified methodological shortcomings will allow for more significant research on this topic in the future.

Our final report for the last project (2020-2023) has been submitted to the EU.
===Report on deliverable 1.1 „Website“ due December 2024===
===Input by Sari===
For the ai education prevalence, but that ‘s only in the cities and small towns. It give impression to itself in regional and rural inequalities. It is obviously reflected in the lack of educational resources in the areas below the county level, the low investment in education, and the low level of system construction. The quality and level of education in poor areas is relatively poor, leaving children vulnerable to disparities. Although in the cities,there is not every student has access to this technology. Only in parts of the school and rich families. To solve these problems, the cooperation of the government and the education sector, as well as the charity sector, is needed. The rich need not only to benefit from it but also to play an important role in it rather than contributing to it.

=PREPARATION OF WACS 8 2024 in Poznan/Athens/Changsha=

Ideas to professionalize our annual conference and to win more people to participate
#we only recommend a conference hotel with a conference discount, but the participants book directly with the hotel. This helps us to lower the conference fees to maybe 190€. Also, we only accept international bank payment directly to the association‘s account.
#We should send a flyer to us universities in order to get some PhD candidates, who can present part of their Thesis. And of course scholars as a main target group.
#Last time we also improved: double blind peer review,
# issuing travel stipends,
#awards in different categories,
#chairs and discussants for all panels,
#hybrid format.

With budget cut over the years, except for the few very well-endowed private univs, in the US, most professors only have 1 trip paid. They will choose the most relevant and established one or two. Graduate students basically pay for themselves, so they only go to AAS and/or AAS Regional conferences.

With zoom, you have more flexibility.

Dan's perspectives are from those in linguistics, a much smaller group than the scope WACS advertises.

1. As a very young asso., even with high level and strong backing, you cannot compete with the established ones.

2. Your initial vision seemed to be a platform to bring in prc sinologists who don't work with the Eng lang.

3. But you also include Eng lang papers.

4. The last few years show that W European & N Am scholars are not attracted to the conference.

A) Some feedback seems to be this is a crazy group of people, a nicer way of saying they are unprofessional and disorganised.

B) The dates may be a part of it but less critical than the messiness.

5) So two issues:

A) the volume and national variety of participants; and

B) the asso's administration of the conferences.

6) Possible remedies:

A) you need a systematic way of proactively reaching out to universities and colleges all over the world, by sending the departments information about the coming year's conference & links, etc.

You have to do this every year. Your conference's scope covers culture, history, ling., lit, phil, pol sci, etc., so to each of these departments, a notice could be sent.

You can do so with a master list by approaching a certain number in each continent the first year, then adding a few more for that country the next year, and so on.

You can even target specific regions/ continents in different years. You are in Eastern Europe, it's a good time to get them to participate. Maybe alongside, this year, it is SE Asia. (Next year, it could be S. Am & Australia as specific targets.)

B) The asso's org: herein lies the foundation of the problem. Until you look hard into it and take serious steps to overhaul it, putting in place functional committees with members who put in time and energy to administer and operate the asso., hence the conference as well, even if (A) is successful one year, it will evaporate in a handful of years.

7) In short, it is necessary to prioritise the structural/ organisational reform in administration & operation, before the change of dates.

8) Since changing the dates in a big way may not bring in many more new participants, you may want to hold it off.

A) You may want to have someone to do a quick research to see when, e.g. Asia & SE Asia is most unlikely to attend a conf, then when in S Am, etc., and the reasons. You get an overview, then you decide.

If it is not possible to buy fridge etc. from it, we can plan this money differently. I am afraid we will spend all the money totally soon. Therefore, I will have to apply for a second budget maybe for 2023. I don't know if they grant me a second budget.
*The EU Grant requires to spend 67.000 Euros first, submit spending receipts and then apply for reimbursement of remaining 10.000 Euros. This means that the university has to release the 40.000 Euros now, is ready to spend the remaining 27.000 Euros then and get reimbursed only 10.000 Euros later.
*Read into the technical requirements of managing EU funds, this includes registering on web sites, filling out forms, submitting information and requesting fundings, controlling the funds arriving at the HUNNU account, forwarding it to the recipients at HUNNU, coordinating with financial department of HUNNU.

Location: Korea South

Subject Fields: Asian History / Studies, Chinese History / Studies, East Asian History / Studies, Japanese History / Studies, Korean History / Studies

CFP: The Journal of Northeast Asian History Vol. 19-1

Dear Colleagues,

The Northeast Asian History Foundation continues to expand its interaction with scholars specializing in Asian history and related fields outside East Asia. The Foundation is also strengthening its ties with leading institutions and scholars by encouraging interdisciplinary and comparative approaches to research on geopolitical, cultural, educational, and other issues in East Asia.

The Foundation publishes the Journal of Northeast Asian History (JNAH), a peer-reviewed semi-annual English-language journal that focuses on history-based approaches to Asian politics, cultures, economy and other fields to shed light on the historical realities of the Asian World. The Journal's geographical scope extends to other parts of the world which have significant relevancy to Asian history, thus charting globalism and localism from global perspectives.

In particular, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Korea-China Relations and Historical Configuration in Northeast Asia and (2) US-China Relations and Historical Issues in East Asia, both of which will help explore further how inter-state and intra-state matters were and are liked together to the historical development of continental East Asia and how the confluence of these external and internal factors have been making vital impact on the various mode of regional interaction in modern East Asia and beyond.

The Journal of Northeast Asian History calls for the submission of outstanding and unpublished papers for review and possible publication in Winter 2022. We invite colleagues to consider the Journal when seeking to publish ongoing research since we believe this can be an impetus for further scholarly collaboration in the future. For full consideration, please submit manuscripts by July 31, 2022 for Winter Issue.

Please contact us at jnah@nahf.or.kr or jnah.nahf@gmail.com should you have any questions regarding the journal, its submission process or subscription to it.
Thank you in advance for your attention and contributions.

'''CFP:''' “David versus Goliath - Souvereignty issues of small countries and regions neighboring large countries” European Journal of Chinese Studies 4 (2021)

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — the most consequential military conflict Europe has witnessed since the Second World War — has riveted the attention of the world. Almost inevitably people look to draw analogies — both historical and contemporary ones. One popular contemporary analogy is between Russia’s actions vis-à-vis Ukraine and mainland China’s approach to Taiwan.

In this issue, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Russia-Ukraine and (2) Mainland China-Taiwan. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine the two comparisons. We aim to bring together papers that (1) critically examine the differentiated situation of the two large authoriatarian nations; (2) discuss the ways in which two large authoritarian nations exert control on smaller neighbors; and (3) comparison with the approach of non-authoritarian large nations towards smaller neighbors; (4) consequences for world order, stability, peace and economical development.

Communication is among the best ways to resolve differences and strengthen cooperation. At an age when "anti-globalization" continues to characterize global situation; conservatism and ultra-nationalism are on the rise; and regional conflicts become frequent, cross-cultural communication seems to be particularly meaningful.

In this issue, we will welcome topics that concern (1) Chinese literature and (2) Western literature. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature in general or in particular works. We will welcome papers that (1) critically examine the different culture and cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature; (2) discusses the problems encountered in such cross-cutural communication; (3) what such communications contribute to Chinese or Western culture.

The staff takes on the double task of conducting research (especially systematic literature reviews, surveys, field experiments testing different learning spaces or digital tools) and doing the administration (keeping the overview, watching the timeline, reports on the EU platform, reminding of deadlines, organizing meetings, inviting project members and external experts to joint papers, conferences, anthologies etc.).

===Salaries===
The project started in September and the project staff has already invested some work. So far, the payment of the salaries was not yet agreed to by the accounting office, they wanted more information. Still, there is a lot of work which needs to be done, including website and reports, until December. Therefore, it is important, that the accounting office already pays the monthly salaries to the project staff now in November.

===Budget===
The budget is quite large and except from the salary for the project staff contains several sub posts, like lump sum salary for students, travel reimbursement, equipment, website programming, conference costs etc. Prof. David Porter offered to design and create a EU and a CN website adhering to the respective policies.

===Personnel===
For the 5 Research Groups, the following heads were suggested:

#Regulation (Comparison) Liu Bai
#Experiences (Comparison) Aline
#Effectiveness of digital tools: David Porter, Ole Döring, Yang Zhiming

Explanation: (How to achieve learning outcomes of teaching in presence also with online or technology-enhanced teaching? Quality measurement.)
#Learning Spaces (Comparison): Jiang Lihua
#ChatGPT/PostEdit (Comparison C-EU): Martin Woesler

===Salary for Project Personnel and Project Members===
There is no monthly salary foreseen in the budget for all participants. But everybody who invests time in the project should be reimbursed. Since the publication of papers is the most important in the project, the project offers to reimburse all Professors and PhD candidates, who publish a paper to be reimbursed for 50 hours (each SCI, SSCI or A&HCI impact paper, corresponds to 1000 Euros for professors and 500 Euros for students), 25 hours (each CSSCI impact paper, corresponds to 500 Euros for professors and 250 Euros for students). Non PhD-Students (but Bachelor- or Master students) who participate, e.g. in the many time consuming tasks like literature review, surveys, field experiments, will be reimbursed with a lump sum per month and will be informed about the expected number of hours they are required to work.

===Credits and Acknowledgments===
Hunan Normal University needs to be mentioned as the affiliated university of both, the 1st and 2nd author. Also, the grant acknowledgement and disclaimer need to be printed with the paper, e.g. as a footnote or endnote. All posters, websites etc. need to display the EU Erasmus + co-funding logo.

===Things to do===
#Prof. Jiang: Please invite Prof. Liu Bai and Prof. Yang Zhiming.
#Prof. Jiang: Dean Situ and the Accounting office may contact you to reconfirm that the first money can be paid from the grant amount received.
#Ole: Please invite Prof. Aline Tedeschi
#Everybody: Please start to read the newest research papers on the topic. The library offers and EBSCO access. Ole can instruct student groups to perform different Systematic Literature Reviews. Languages should be at least Chinese and English. Some research questions should be developed through these literature reviews. Please keep in touch in the WeChat group and exchange your findings.

===Things to do for the project staff===
#Finalize report of old project (this part of the work is NOT paid by the new project) both on the EU platform as well as on the website http://jmchair.eu.
#Organize setting up a Website
#Get the frequent payments running with the accounting office in coordination with the College leadership.
#Conduct systematic literature reviews, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.
#Set up virtual working space on wiki and invite everybody to join. Publish there all findings.
#Invite everybody to the next meeting next Friday 10 am and collect points for the agenda from the participants.

P.S.: After the meeting, Prof. Jiang invited Prof. Woesler to join the current session of her Colloquium into room 410 (13:00-14:15). There he introduced the project again and offered the PhD candidates to join the project, preferrably assisting the head of research group 4, Prof. Jiang Lihua. PhD candidates are encouraged to join because they can make double use of their research for the project/publications and their thesis. Also, the participation in the project will be certified and can be used in the curriculum vitae for job applications.

===Budget and Salary===
For student volunteers the budget provides a total of 4,000 Yuan per month over the range of 3 years. Since there is a higher workload before and during conferences, we will have to be able to assign both salaries (e.g. for Cai Cixiu) and short-term contract salaries (e.g. for conferences). The project staff receives regular payments. The request for first payments has been submitted.

===Things to do===
#Sari: Please conduct a MikeCRM survey. Print the research questionnaire by Prof. Doering, and conduct the survey with the students who participated in the painting event. (When conducting the survey, the respondents’ initials with birth date (like WJG1001) can be used to code them, so that the privacy of respondents can be protected and we can compare and analyze developments.)
#Phd students: Please analyze the survey results of the last EU project, and upload the parts of the final report to the EU website (compare the answers of Prof. Woesler’s with the students’ answer and get the percentage both at the beginning and the end of the semester. If there is a progress, this would be a good result for the report.) Also copy documentation to website jmchair.eu.
#Prof. Porter: Thank you for submitting the first samples for a website. They are under review.
#Everybody: Start reading. Prepare systematic literature reviews on the project topic, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.

===Report by Martin Woesler on Grants for going to a French university as a visiting professor, chair professors===
For now, I recommend to already check out the grants to prepare a good application. Regarding the chair professor or visiting scholar programs for foreign professors in France, there are the following mostly financed by the EU, sometimes together with the French Ministry of Science (I have indicated all weblinks):

1. Chair Program with Universities and Grand Ecoles

In addition to receiving visiting professors or researchers, many French universities and Grandes Ecoles have chair programmes to welcome researchers from around the world. These programmes are usually designed for specific scientific problems and last for a limited time. The Collège de France in particular has developed a programme of excellence in which many chairs are reserved for foreign researchers or professors. www.college-de-france.fr.

2. Chair Programs with Research Establishments

Further, there are corporate chairs that enable foreign researchers to work with a company and research establishment for up to 2 years. This programme is financed by the French National Research Agency.

Everybody please prepare a 1 minute input what you found out so far from the literature, about experts we can invite and what you want to conduct research on.

===Input by David Porter===
Pardon any typos. As mentioned last time I would recommend we invite Prof. Luis Cordeiro-Rodrigues from Hunan University as he has experience with AI and ethics and is ‘right next door’ so to speak. I am happy to reach out to him but I think it would be good to have a formal CFP or fixed plan so that I can explain exactly what we would be invited for and when.

If invited speakers don’t have to be university-affiliated academics I would recommend Matt Sheehan (matt.sheehan@ceip.org) who is a fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a journal and involved with various think-tanks relating to global technology (including China - he is supposed to be fluent in Chinese). Zhu Junhua (junzhu@utu.fi https://www.utu.fi/en/people/junhua-zhu ) is a doctoral student at University of Turku, and so still an early career scholar but is doing work on AI governance and ethics who might be someone who can bridge the Europe-China divide. We all come across a lot of names, so it might be good to have a more settled idea of what our conference might focus on more narrowly?

I want to focus on AI and university teaching with a comparative focus on Europe and China. Even in the past few years there are thousands of relevant articles but I will focus on a few more specific and nuanced research goals in the next couple months. It will likely relate to the adoption of AI in educational institutions in both regions during and post-COVID, impact of AI on student engagement, and overall learning outcomes but I want to tie into ethical considerations. Can put this crudely:
1) How extensively is AI tech currently integrated into university teaching in Europe and China?
2) How do educators perceive and navigate the associated challenges with AI and their teaching practices? (ethics here).
3) What is the impact of AI on outcomes: academic performance, yes, but also student engagement and real learning outcomes (not just bullshit test scores) in European and Chinese universities?
4) What about institutional, cultural or contextual differences that shape the adoption and impact of AI in university teaching between Europe and China?

I am still working on Literature Review and narrowing down what lit to review since comprehensiveness is impossible/obsolete the day after it is done. I want to work this into something of a comparative analysis between Europe and China in terms of AI adoption and its impact on university teaching (not exactly that but something like that). Before next semester I want to have a tangible plan for some surveys to gather qualitative and quantitative data. I have a timeline to do the preliminary work by March and serious development for something that can be submitted for publication next Fall (optimistically October, absit omen).

Participatory research on using virtual reality to teach ocean acidification: a study in the marine education communityENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION RESEARCHFauville, G., Queiroz, A. M., Hambrick, L., Brown, B. A., Bailenson, J. N.2020
Abstract
Ocean Acidification (OA) is an emerging environmental issue that is still largely unknown to the public and in its infancy in terms of educational strategies. OA teaching material should address the specific challenges that educators face while building learners’ understanding of OA. The objective of this study is two-fold. First, we identified the barriers to teaching OA as experienced by formal and informal marine educators. Second, we provided educators an opportunity to experience virtual reality and discuss how it could serve as a tool for face-to-face and distance learning to address the identified challenges. The findings shed light on four overarching themes of challenges to teaching OA: lack of science literacy, unprepared education field, complex and invisible nature of OA and lack of personal connection with the ocean. Marine educators consider empowerment, perspective-taking and visualization as the three principal avenues through which virtual reality may contribute to mitigating the challenges to teaching OA.

Designing for Relationality in Virtual Reality: Context-Specific Learning as a Primer for Content Relevancy JOURNAL OF SCIENCE EDUCATION AND TECHNOLOGYBoda, P. A., Brown, B.2020
Abstract
Science achievement gaps exhibit racial disparities starting in primary grades and have been shown to persist through middle and high school. In turn, increasing positive attitudes toward science have been shown as one factor that affects academic achievement and motivation among K-12 students. Exploring novel ways that technology can influence diverse students’ attitudes toward science, and the design elements pertinent therein, is thus one prominent goal toward achieving science education for all. Leveraging the immersive nature of Virtual Reality 360 videos, we present a design-based research iteration testing how a novel technology-enhanced learning experience influenced close to 400 urban elementary students’ attitudes toward science. Using a two-way MANCOVA analysis, the data support that our design iteration emphasizing context-specific learningcan prime students that do not see science as relevant to them to change these attitudes in significantly positive ways. Implications are discussed around relationality, technology use in urban schools, and local contexts as learning resources.

The impact of artificial intelligence on learner–instructor interaction in online learning
K Seo, J Tang, I Roll, S Fels, D Yoon
International journal of educational technology in higher education 18 (1), 1-23

Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) systems offer effective support for online learning and teaching, including personalizing learning for students, automating instructors’ routine tasks, and powering adaptive assessments. However, while the opportunities for AI are promising, the impact of AI systems on the culture of, norms in, and expectations about interactions between students and instructors are still elusive. In online learning, learner–instructor interaction (inter alia, communication, support, and presence) has a profound impact on students’ satisfaction and learning outcomes. Thus, identifying how students and instructors perceive the impact of AI systems on their interaction is important to identify any gaps, challenges, or barriers preventing AI systems from achieving their intended potential and risking the safety of these interactions. To address this need for forward-looking decisions, we used Speed Dating with storyboards to analyze the authentic voices of 12 students and 11 instructors on diverse use cases of possible AI systems in online learning. Findings show that participants envision adopting AI systems in online learning can enable personalized learner–instructor interaction at scale but at the risk of violating social boundaries. Although AI systems have been positively recognized for improving the quantity and quality of communication, for providing just-in-time, personalized support for large-scale settings, and for improving the feeling of connection, there were concerns about responsibility, agency, and surveillance issues. These findings have implications for the design of AI systems to ensure explainability, human-in-the-loop, and careful data collection and presentation. Overall, contributions of this study include the design of AI system storyboards which are technically feasible and positively support learner–instructor interaction, capturing students’ and instructors’ concerns of AI systems through Speed Dating, and suggesting practical implications for maximizing the positive impact of AI systems while minimizing the negative ones

Personalized Education in the AI Era: What to Expect Next?
Setareh Maghsudi, Andrew Lan, Jie Xu, Mihaela van der Schaar

https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2101.10074

Abstract

The objective of personalized learning is to design an effective knowledge acquisition track that matches the learner's strengths and bypasses her weaknesses to ultimately meet her desired goal. This concept emerged several years ago and is being adopted by a rapidly-growing number of educational institutions around the globe. In recent years, the boost of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), together with the advances in big data analysis, has unfolded novel perspectives to enhance personalized education in numerous dimensions. By taking advantage of AI/ML methods, the educational platform precisely acquires the student's characteristics. This is done, in part, by observing the past experiences as well as analyzing the available big data through exploring the learners' features and similarities. It can, for example, recommend the most appropriate content among numerous accessible ones, advise a well-designed long-term curriculum, connect appropriate learners by suggestion, accurate performance evaluation, and the like. Still, several aspects of AI-based personalized education remain unexplored. These include, among others, compensating for the adverse effects of the absence of peers, creating and maintaining motivations for learning, increasing diversity, removing the biases induced by the data and algorithms, and the like. In this paper, while providing a brief review of state-of-the-art research, we investigate the challenges of AI/ML-based personalized education and discuss potential solutions.

===Report on Final Report last JM project===
Our final report for the last project (2020-2023) has been submitted to the EU.
===Report on deliverable 1.1 „Website“ due December 2024===
===Input by Sari===
For the ai education prevalence, but that ‘s only in the cities and small towns. It give impression to itself in regional and rural inequalities. It is obviously reflected in the lack of educational resources in the areas below the county level, the low investment in education, and the low level of system construction. The quality and level of education in poor areas is relatively poor, leaving children vulnerable to disparities. Although in the cities,there is not every student has access to this technology. Only in parts of the school and rich families. To solve these problems, the cooperation of the government and the education sector, as well as the charity sector, is needed. The rich need not only to benefit from it but also to play an important role in it rather than contributing to it.

=PREPARATION OF WACS 8 2024 in Poznan/Athens/Changsha=

Ideas to professionalize our annual conference and to win more people to participate
#we only recommend a conference hotel with a conference discount, but the participants book directly with the hotel. This helps us to lower the conference fees to maybe 190€. Also, we only accept international bank payment directly to the association‘s account.
#We should send a flyer to us universities in order to get some PhD candidates, who can present part of their Thesis. And of course scholars as a main target group.
#Last time we also improved: double blind peer review,
# issuing travel stipends,
#awards in different categories,
#chairs and discussants for all panels,
#hybrid format.

With budget cut over the years, except for the few very well-endowed private univs, in the US, most professors only have 1 trip paid. They will choose the most relevant and established one or two. Graduate students basically pay for themselves, so they only go to AAS and/or AAS Regional conferences.

With zoom, you have more flexibility.

Dan's perspectives are from those in linguistics, a much smaller group than the scope WACS advertises.

1. As a very young asso., even with high level and strong backing, you cannot compete with the established ones.

2. Your initial vision seemed to be a platform to bring in prc sinologists who don't work with the Eng lang.

3. But you also include Eng lang papers.

4. The last few years show that W European & N Am scholars are not attracted to the conference.

A) Some feedback seems to be this is a crazy group of people, a nicer way of saying they are unprofessional and disorganised.

B) The dates may be a part of it but less critical than the messiness.

5) So two issues:

A) the volume and national variety of participants; and

B) the asso's administration of the conferences.

6) Possible remedies:

A) you need a systematic way of proactively reaching out to universities and colleges all over the world, by sending the departments information about the coming year's conference & links, etc.

You have to do this every year. Your conference's scope covers culture, history, ling., lit, phil, pol sci, etc., so to each of these departments, a notice could be sent.

You can do so with a master list by approaching a certain number in each continent the first year, then adding a few more for that country the next year, and so on.

You can even target specific regions/ continents in different years. You are in Eastern Europe, it's a good time to get them to participate. Maybe alongside, this year, it is SE Asia. (Next year, it could be S. Am & Australia as specific targets.)

B) The asso's org: herein lies the foundation of the problem. Until you look hard into it and take serious steps to overhaul it, putting in place functional committees with members who put in time and energy to administer and operate the asso., hence the conference as well, even if (A) is successful one year, it will evaporate in a handful of years.

7) In short, it is necessary to prioritise the structural/ organisational reform in administration & operation, before the change of dates.

8) Since changing the dates in a big way may not bring in many more new participants, you may want to hold it off.

A) You may want to have someone to do a quick research to see when, e.g. Asia & SE Asia is most unlikely to attend a conf, then when in S Am, etc., and the reasons. You get an overview, then you decide.

=Successfully completed tasks=
*We have submitted the [[Interview by Wan Shuyuan 2022]], it got more than 1 million readers and was republished on several platforms including the website of the Chinese Embassy in Germany
*The JM budget of 40.000 Euros was moved from "Research" to "Education" 教务处 and paid to the participating teachers. Now we need to provide evidence for more teachings so that the remaining 10.000 Euros and 16.667 Euros matching funds from the university can be spent and 10,000 Euros will be reimbursed upon delivery of the report. Contact person: WeChat ID chiryhuo 霍丽 Lei Li，传神湖南高校的联系人 (Aim: Get the funds assigned to Martin Woesler, then paid to the participating teachers)

=Staff tasks=

*Send everyone a sample of the journal and the vetting (review) of the Chinese essays.
*Prepare 2 MOOC contents and produce films
==Duan Yuanyuan==
'''Funds Management'''
*Submit a new Seed Grant 启动资金 to Administration: So in the new budget, we should have maybe 55.000 Yuan travel and (quarantine) hotel cost, 10.000 Yuan office 309 和 415 设备 (比如冰箱、饮水机), 30.000 Yuan salary for assistants, 5.000 Yuan budget for books and decoration (statues, paintings) we buy for the two walls and bookshelfs in both offices. If it is not possible to buy fridge etc. from it, we can plan this money differently. I am afraid we will spend all the money totally soon. Therefore, I will have to apply for a second budget maybe for 2023. I don't know if they grant me a second budget.
*The EU Grant requires to spend 67.000 Euros first, submit spending receipts and then apply for reimbursement of remaining 10.000 Euros. This means that the university has to release the 40.000 Euros now, is ready to spend the remaining 27.000 Euros then and get reimbursed only 10.000 Euros later.
*Read into the technical requirements of managing EU funds, this includes registering on web sites, filling out forms, submitting information and requesting fundings, controlling the funds arriving at the HUNNU account, forwarding it to the recipients at HUNNU, coordinating with financial department of HUNNU.

Location: Korea South

Subject Fields: Asian History / Studies, Chinese History / Studies, East Asian History / Studies, Japanese History / Studies, Korean History / Studies

CFP: The Journal of Northeast Asian History Vol. 19-1

Dear Colleagues,

The Northeast Asian History Foundation continues to expand its interaction with scholars specializing in Asian history and related fields outside East Asia. The Foundation is also strengthening its ties with leading institutions and scholars by encouraging interdisciplinary and comparative approaches to research on geopolitical, cultural, educational, and other issues in East Asia.

The Foundation publishes the Journal of Northeast Asian History (JNAH), a peer-reviewed semi-annual English-language journal that focuses on history-based approaches to Asian politics, cultures, economy and other fields to shed light on the historical realities of the Asian World. The Journal's geographical scope extends to other parts of the world which have significant relevancy to Asian history, thus charting globalism and localism from global perspectives.

In particular, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Korea-China Relations and Historical Configuration in Northeast Asia and (2) US-China Relations and Historical Issues in East Asia, both of which will help explore further how inter-state and intra-state matters were and are liked together to the historical development of continental East Asia and how the confluence of these external and internal factors have been making vital impact on the various mode of regional interaction in modern East Asia and beyond.

The Journal of Northeast Asian History calls for the submission of outstanding and unpublished papers for review and possible publication in Winter 2022. We invite colleagues to consider the Journal when seeking to publish ongoing research since we believe this can be an impetus for further scholarly collaboration in the future. For full consideration, please submit manuscripts by July 31, 2022 for Winter Issue.

Please contact us at jnah@nahf.or.kr or jnah.nahf@gmail.com should you have any questions regarding the journal, its submission process or subscription to it.
Thank you in advance for your attention and contributions.

'''CFP:''' “David versus Goliath - Souvereignty issues of small countries and regions neighboring large countries” European Journal of Chinese Studies 4 (2021)

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — the most consequential military conflict Europe has witnessed since the Second World War — has riveted the attention of the world. Almost inevitably people look to draw analogies — both historical and contemporary ones. One popular contemporary analogy is between Russia’s actions vis-à-vis Ukraine and mainland China’s approach to Taiwan.

In this issue, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Russia-Ukraine and (2) Mainland China-Taiwan. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine the two comparisons. We aim to bring together papers that (1) critically examine the differentiated situation of the two large authoriatarian nations; (2) discuss the ways in which two large authoritarian nations exert control on smaller neighbors; and (3) comparison with the approach of non-authoritarian large nations towards smaller neighbors; (4) consequences for world order, stability, peace and economical development.

Communication is among the best ways to resolve differences and strengthen cooperation. At an age when "anti-globalization" continues to characterize global situation; conservatism and ultra-nationalism are on the rise; and regional conflicts become frequent, cross-cultural communication seems to be particularly meaningful.

In this issue, we will welcome topics that concern (1) Chinese literature and (2) Western literature. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature in general or in particular works. We will welcome papers that (1) critically examine the different culture and cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature; (2) discusses the problems encountered in such cross-cutural communication; (3) what such communications contribute to Chinese or Western culture.

Minutes of the Kick-off meeting “EU JM Centre of Excellence for Digitalization of University Teaching” Nov 16, 2023, 10:00-11:30 am, HNU Tenglong Building, room 309
===Protocol: Martin Woesler===
===Participants===
Prof. Woesler, Prof. Jiang Lihua, Prof. Porter, PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Liu Rong, Zhouli Ziruo, Volunteer "Sari" Cai Xixiu.

===Next Meeting===
Friday Nov 24, 2023, 10:00 am room 309. For those who can only attend online: Zoom: http://bit.ly/ZOOMCOURSE

===Your contact people: The project staff===
Project Leader: Prof. Woesler, Project Assistants: PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Zhouli Ziruo, Liu Rong. The staff takes on the double task of conducting research (especially systematic literature reviews, surveys, field experiments testing different learning spaces or digital tools) and doing the administration (keeping the overview, watching the timeline, reports on the EU platform, reminding of deadlines, organizing meetings, inviting project members and external experts to joint papers, conferences, anthologies etc.).

===Salaries===
The project started in September and the project staff has already invested some work. So far, the payment of the salaries was not yet agreed to by the accounting office, they wanted more information. Still, there is a lot of work which needs to be done, including website and reports, until December. Therefore, it is important, that the accounting office already pays the monthly salaries to the project staff now in November.

===Budget===
The budget is quite large and except from the salary for the project staff contains several sub posts, like lump sum salary for students, travel reimbursement, equipment, website programming, conference costs etc. Prof. David Porter offered to design and create a EU and a CN website adhering to the respective policies.

===Personnel===
For the 5 Research Groups, the following heads were suggested:

#Regulation (Comparison) Liu Bai
#Experiences (Comparison) Aline
#Effectiveness of digital tools: David Porter, Ole Döring, Yang Zhiming

Explanation: (How to achieve learning outcomes of teaching in presence also with online or technology-enhanced teaching? Quality measurement.)
#Learning Spaces (Comparison): Jiang Lihua
#ChatGPT/PostEdit (Comparison C-EU): Martin Woesler

===Salary for Project Personnel and Project Members===
There is no monthly salary foreseen in the budget for all participants. But everybody who invests time in the project should be reimbursed. Since the publication of papers is the most important in the project, the project offers to reimburse all Professors and PhD candidates, who publish a paper to be reimbursed for 50 hours (each SCI, SSCI or A&HCI impact paper, corresponds to 1000 Euros for professors and 500 Euros for students), 25 hours (each CSSCI impact paper, corresponds to 500 Euros for professors and 250 Euros for students). Non PhD-Students (but Bachelor- or Master students) who participate, e.g. in the many time consuming tasks like literature review, surveys, field experiments, will be reimbursed with a lump sum per month and will be informed about the expected number of hours they are required to work.

===Credits and Acknowledgments===
Hunan Normal University needs to be mentioned as the affiliated university of both, the 1st and 2nd author. Also, the grant acknowledgement and disclaimer need to be printed with the paper, e.g. as a footnote or endnote. All posters, websites etc. need to display the EU Erasmus + co-funding logo.

===Things to do===
#Prof. Jiang: Please invite Prof. Liu Bai and Prof. Yang Zhiming.
#Prof. Jiang: Dean Situ and the Accounting office may contact you to reconfirm that the first money can be paid from the grant amount received.
#Ole: Please invite Prof. Aline Tedeschi
#Everybody: Please start to read the newest research papers on the topic. The library offers and EBSCO access. Ole can instruct student groups to perform different Systematic Literature Reviews. Languages should be at least Chinese and English. Some research questions should be developed through these literature reviews. Please keep in touch in the WeChat group and exchange your findings.

===Things to do for the project staff===
#Finalize report of old project (this part of the work is NOT paid by the new project) both on the EU platform as well as on the website http://jmchair.eu.
#Organize setting up a Website
#Get the frequent payments running with the accounting office in coordination with the College leadership.
#Conduct systematic literature reviews, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.
#Set up virtual working space on wiki and invite everybody to join. Publish there all findings.
#Invite everybody to the next meeting next Friday 10 am and collect points for the agenda from the participants.

P.S.: After the meeting, Prof. Jiang invited Prof. Woesler to join the current session of her Colloquium into room 410 (13:00-14:15). There he introduced the project again and offered the PhD candidates to join the project, preferrably assisting the head of research group 4, Prof. Jiang Lihua. PhD candidates are encouraged to join because they can make double use of their research for the project/publications and their thesis. Also, the participation in the project will be certified and can be used in the curriculum vitae for job applications.

===Budget and Salary===
For student volunteers the budget provides a total of 4,000 Yuan per month over the range of 3 years. Since there is a higher workload before and during conferences, we will have to be able to assign both salaries (e.g. for Cai Cixiu) and short-term contract salaries (e.g. for conferences). The project staff receives regular payments. The request for first payments has been submitted.

===Things to do===
#Sari: Please conduct a MikeCRM survey. Print the research questionnaire by Prof. Doering, and conduct the survey with the students who participated in the painting event. (When conducting the survey, the respondents’ initials with birth date (like WJG1001) can be used to code them, so that the privacy of respondents can be protected and we can compare and analyze developments.)
#Phd students: Please analyze the survey results of the last EU project, and upload the parts of the final report to the EU website (compare the answers of Prof. Woesler’s with the students’ answer and get the percentage both at the beginning and the end of the semester. If there is a progress, this would be a good result for the report.) Also copy documentation to website jmchair.eu.
#Prof. Porter: Thank you for submitting the first samples for a website. They are under review.
#Everybody: Start reading. Prepare systematic literature reviews on the project topic, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.

===Report by Martin Woesler on Grants for going to a French university as a visiting professor, chair professors===
For now, I recommend to already check out the grants to prepare a good application. Regarding the chair professor or visiting scholar programs for foreign professors in France, there are the following mostly financed by the EU, sometimes together with the French Ministry of Science (I have indicated all weblinks):

1. Chair Program with Universities and Grand Ecoles

In addition to receiving visiting professors or researchers, many French universities and Grandes Ecoles have chair programmes to welcome researchers from around the world. These programmes are usually designed for specific scientific problems and last for a limited time. The Collège de France in particular has developed a programme of excellence in which many chairs are reserved for foreign researchers or professors. www.college-de-france.fr.

2. Chair Programs with Research Establishments

Further, there are corporate chairs that enable foreign researchers to work with a company and research establishment for up to 2 years. This programme is financed by the French National Research Agency.

I am happy to reach out to him but I think it would be good to have a formal CFP or fixed plan so that I can explain exactly what we would be invited for and when.

If invited speakers don’t have to be university-affiliated academics I would recommend Matt Sheehan (matt.sheehan@ceip.org) who is a fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a journal and involved with various think-tanks relating to global technology (including China - he is supposed to be fluent in Chinese). Zhu Junhua (junzhu@utu.fi https://www.utu.fi/en/people/junhua-zhu ) is a doctoral student at University of Turku, and so still an early career scholar but is doing work on AI governance and ethics who might be someone who can bridge the Europe-China divide. We all come across a lot of names, so it might be good to have a more settled idea of what our conference might focus on more narrowly?

I want to focus on AI and university teaching with a comparative focus on Europe and China. Even in the past few years there are thousands of relevant articles but I will focus on a few more specific and nuanced research goals in the next couple months. It will likely relate to the adoption of AI in educational institutions in both regions during and post-COVID, impact of AI on student engagement, and overall learning outcomes but I want to tie into ethical considerations. Can put this crudely:
1) How extensively is AI tech currently integrated into university teaching in Europe and China?
2) How do educators perceive and navigate the associated challenges with AI and their teaching practices? (ethics here).
3) What is the impact of AI on outcomes: academic performance, yes, but also student engagement and real learning outcomes (not just bullshit test scores) in European and Chinese universities?
4) What about institutional, cultural or contextual differences that shape the adoption and impact of AI in university teaching between Europe and China?

I am still working on Literature Review and narrowing down what lit to review since comprehensiveness is impossible/obsolete the day after it is done. I want to work this into something of a comparative analysis between Europe and China in terms of AI adoption and its impact on university teaching (not exactly that but something like that). Before next semester I want to have a tangible plan for some surveys to gather qualitative and quantitative data. I have a timeline to do the preliminary work by March and serious development for something that can be submitted for publication next Fall (optimistically October, absit omen).

Participatory research on using virtual reality to teach ocean acidification: a study in the marine education communityENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION RESEARCHFauville, G., Queiroz, A. M., Hambrick, L., Brown, B. A., Bailenson, J. N.2020
Abstract
Ocean Acidification (OA) is an emerging environmental issue that is still largely unknown to the public and in its infancy in terms of educational strategies. OA teaching material should address the specific challenges that educators face while building learners’ understanding of OA. The objective of this study is two-fold. First, we identified the barriers to teaching OA as experienced by formal and informal marine educators. Second, we provided educators an opportunity to experience virtual reality and discuss how it could serve as a tool for face-to-face and distance learning to address the identified challenges. The findings shed light on four overarching themes of challenges to teaching OA: lack of science literacy, unprepared education field, complex and invisible nature of OA and lack of personal connection with the ocean. Marine educators consider empowerment, perspective-taking and visualization as the three principal avenues through which virtual reality may contribute to mitigating the challenges to teaching OA.

Designing for Relationality in Virtual Reality: Context-Specific Learning as a Primer for Content Relevancy JOURNAL OF SCIENCE EDUCATION AND TECHNOLOGYBoda, P. A., Brown, B.2020
Abstract
Science achievement gaps exhibit racial disparities starting in primary grades and have been shown to persist through middle and high school. In turn, increasing positive attitudes toward science have been shown as one factor that affects academic achievement and motivation among K-12 students. Exploring novel ways that technology can influence diverse students’ attitudes toward science, and the design elements pertinent therein, is thus one prominent goal toward achieving science education for all. Leveraging the immersive nature of Virtual Reality 360 videos, we present a design-based research iteration testing how a novel technology-enhanced learning experience influenced close to 400 urban elementary students’ attitudes toward science. Using a two-way MANCOVA analysis, the data support that our design iteration emphasizing context-specific learningcan prime students that do not see science as relevant to them to change these attitudes in significantly positive ways. Implications are discussed around relationality, technology use in urban schools, and local contexts as learning resources.

The impact of artificial intelligence on learner–instructor interaction in online learning
K Seo, J Tang, I Roll, S Fels, D Yoon
International journal of educational technology in higher education 18 (1), 1-23

Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) systems offer effective support for online learning and teaching, including personalizing learning for students, automating instructors’ routine tasks, and powering adaptive assessments. However, while the opportunities for AI are promising, the impact of AI systems on the culture of, norms in, and expectations about interactions between students and instructors are still elusive. In online learning, learner–instructor interaction (inter alia, communication, support, and presence) has a profound impact on students’ satisfaction and learning outcomes. Thus, identifying how students and instructors perceive the impact of AI systems on their interaction is important to identify any gaps, challenges, or barriers preventing AI systems from achieving their intended potential and risking the safety of these interactions. To address this need for forward-looking decisions, we used Speed Dating with storyboards to analyze the authentic voices of 12 students and 11 instructors on diverse use cases of possible AI systems in online learning. Findings show that participants envision adopting AI systems in online learning can enable personalized learner–instructor interaction at scale but at the risk of violating social boundaries. Although AI systems have been positively recognized for improving the quantity and quality of communication, for providing just-in-time, personalized support for large-scale settings, and for improving the feeling of connection, there were concerns about responsibility, agency, and surveillance issues. These findings have implications for the design of AI systems to ensure explainability, human-in-the-loop, and careful data collection and presentation. Overall, contributions of this study include the design of AI system storyboards which are technically feasible and positively support learner–instructor interaction, capturing students’ and instructors’ concerns of AI systems through Speed Dating, and suggesting practical implications for maximizing the positive impact of AI systems while minimizing the negative ones

Personalized Education in the AI Era: What to Expect Next?
Setareh Maghsudi, Andrew Lan, Jie Xu, Mihaela van der Schaar

https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2101.10074

Abstract

The objective of personalized learning is to design an effective knowledge acquisition track that matches the learner's strengths and bypasses her weaknesses to ultimately meet her desired goal. This concept emerged several years ago and is being adopted by a rapidly-growing number of educational institutions around the globe. In recent years, the boost of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), together with the advances in big data analysis, has unfolded novel perspectives to enhance personalized education in numerous dimensions. By taking advantage of AI/ML methods, the educational platform precisely acquires the student's characteristics. This is done, in part, by observing the past experiences as well as analyzing the available big data through exploring the learners' features and similarities. It can, for example, recommend the most appropriate content among numerous accessible ones, advise a well-designed long-term curriculum, connect appropriate learners by suggestion, accurate performance evaluation, and the like. Still, several aspects of AI-based personalized education remain unexplored. These include, among others, compensating for the adverse effects of the absence of peers, creating and maintaining motivations for learning, increasing diversity, removing the biases induced by the data and algorithms, and the like. In this paper, while providing a brief review of state-of-the-art research, we investigate the challenges of AI/ML-based personalized education and discuss potential solutions.

===Report on deliverable 1.1 „Website“ due December 2024===
===Input by Sari===
For the ai education prevalence, but that ‘s only in the cities and small towns. It give impression to itself in regional and rural inequalities. It is obviously reflected in the lack of educational resources in the areas below the county level, the low investment in education, and the low level of system construction. The quality and level of education in poor areas is relatively poor, leaving children vulnerable to disparities. Although in the cities,there is not every student has access to this technology. Only in parts of the school and rich families. To solve these problems, the cooperation of the government and the education sector, as well as the charity sector, is needed. The rich need not only to benefit from it but also to play an important role in it rather than contributing to it.

=PREPARATION OF WACS 8 2024 in Poznan/Athens/Changsha=

Ideas to professionalize our annual conference and to win more people to participate
#we only recommend a conference hotel with a conference discount, but the participants book directly with the hotel. This helps us to lower the conference fees to maybe 190€. Also, we only accept international bank payment directly to the association‘s account.
#We should send a flyer to us universities in order to get some PhD candidates, who can present part of their Thesis. And of course scholars as a main target group.
#Last time we also improved: double blind peer review,
# issuing travel stipends,
#awards in different categories,
#chairs and discussants for all panels,
#hybrid format.

With budget cut over the years, except for the few very well-endowed private univs, in the US, most professors only have 1 trip paid. They will choose the most relevant and established one or two. Graduate students basically pay for themselves, so they only go to AAS and/or AAS Regional conferences.

With zoom, you have more flexibility.

Dan's perspectives are from those in linguistics, a much smaller group than the scope WACS advertises.

1. As a very young asso., even with high level and strong backing, you cannot compete with the established ones.

2. Your initial vision seemed to be a platform to bring in prc sinologists who don't work with the Eng lang.

3. But you also include Eng lang papers.

4. The last few years show that W European & N Am scholars are not attracted to the conference.

A) Some feedback seems to be this is a crazy group of people, a nicer way of saying they are unprofessional and disorganised.

B) The dates may be a part of it but less critical than the messiness.

5) So two issues:

A) the volume and national variety of participants; and

B) the asso's administration of the conferences.

6) Possible remedies:

A) you need a systematic way of proactively reaching out to universities and colleges all over the world, by sending the departments information about the coming year's conference & links, etc.

You have to do this every year. Your conference's scope covers culture, history, ling., lit, phil, pol sci, etc., so to each of these departments, a notice could be sent.

You can do so with a master list by approaching a certain number in each continent the first year, then adding a few more for that country the next year, and so on.

You can even target specific regions/ continents in different years. You are in Eastern Europe, it's a good time to get them to participate. Maybe alongside, this year, it is SE Asia. (Next year, it could be S. Am & Australia as specific targets.)

B) The asso's org: herein lies the foundation of the problem. Until you look hard into it and take serious steps to overhaul it, putting in place functional committees with members who put in time and energy to administer and operate the asso., hence the conference as well, even if (A) is successful one year, it will evaporate in a handful of years.

7) In short, it is necessary to prioritise the structural/ organisational reform in administration & operation, before the change of dates.

8) Since changing the dates in a big way may not bring in many more new participants, you may want to hold it off.

A) You may want to have someone to do a quick research to see when, e.g. Asia & SE Asia is most unlikely to attend a conf, then when in S Am, etc., and the reasons. You get an overview, then you decide.

*Submit a new Seed Grant 启动资金 to Administration: So in the new budget, we should have maybe 55.000 Yuan travel and (quarantine) hotel cost, 10.000 Yuan office 309 和 415 设备 (比如冰箱、饮水机), 30.000 Yuan salary for assistants, 5.000 Yuan budget for books and decoration (statues, paintings) we buy for the two walls and bookshelfs in both offices. If it is not possible to buy fridge etc. from it, we can plan this money differently. I am afraid we will spend all the money totally soon. Therefore, I will have to apply for a second budget maybe for 2023. I don't know if they grant me a second budget.
*The EU Grant requires to spend 67.000 Euros first, submit spending receipts and then apply for reimbursement of remaining 10.000 Euros. This means that the university has to release the 40.000 Euros now, is ready to spend the remaining 27.000 Euros then and get reimbursed only 10.000 Euros later.
*Read into the technical requirements of managing EU funds, this includes registering on web sites, filling out forms, submitting information and requesting fundings, controlling the funds arriving at the HUNNU account, forwarding it to the recipients at HUNNU, coordinating with financial department of HUNNU.

Location: Korea South

Subject Fields: Asian History / Studies, Chinese History / Studies, East Asian History / Studies, Japanese History / Studies, Korean History / Studies

CFP: The Journal of Northeast Asian History Vol. 19-1

Dear Colleagues,

The Northeast Asian History Foundation continues to expand its interaction with scholars specializing in Asian history and related fields outside East Asia. The Foundation is also strengthening its ties with leading institutions and scholars by encouraging interdisciplinary and comparative approaches to research on geopolitical, cultural, educational, and other issues in East Asia.

The Foundation publishes the Journal of Northeast Asian History (JNAH), a peer-reviewed semi-annual English-language journal that focuses on history-based approaches to Asian politics, cultures, economy and other fields to shed light on the historical realities of the Asian World. The Journal's geographical scope extends to other parts of the world which have significant relevancy to Asian history, thus charting globalism and localism from global perspectives.

In particular, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Korea-China Relations and Historical Configuration in Northeast Asia and (2) US-China Relations and Historical Issues in East Asia, both of which will help explore further how inter-state and intra-state matters were and are liked together to the historical development of continental East Asia and how the confluence of these external and internal factors have been making vital impact on the various mode of regional interaction in modern East Asia and beyond.

The Journal of Northeast Asian History calls for the submission of outstanding and unpublished papers for review and possible publication in Winter 2022. We invite colleagues to consider the Journal when seeking to publish ongoing research since we believe this can be an impetus for further scholarly collaboration in the future. For full consideration, please submit manuscripts by July 31, 2022 for Winter Issue.

Please contact us at jnah@nahf.or.kr or jnah.nahf@gmail.com should you have any questions regarding the journal, its submission process or subscription to it.
Thank you in advance for your attention and contributions.

'''CFP:''' “David versus Goliath - Souvereignty issues of small countries and regions neighboring large countries” European Journal of Chinese Studies 4 (2021)

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — the most consequential military conflict Europe has witnessed since the Second World War — has riveted the attention of the world. Almost inevitably people look to draw analogies — both historical and contemporary ones. One popular contemporary analogy is between Russia’s actions vis-à-vis Ukraine and mainland China’s approach to Taiwan.

In this issue, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Russia-Ukraine and (2) Mainland China-Taiwan. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine the two comparisons. We aim to bring together papers that (1) critically examine the differentiated situation of the two large authoriatarian nations; (2) discuss the ways in which two large authoritarian nations exert control on smaller neighbors; and (3) comparison with the approach of non-authoritarian large nations towards smaller neighbors; (4) consequences for world order, stability, peace and economical development.

Communication is among the best ways to resolve differences and strengthen cooperation. At an age when "anti-globalization" continues to characterize global situation; conservatism and ultra-nationalism are on the rise; and regional conflicts become frequent, cross-cultural communication seems to be particularly meaningful.

In this issue, we will welcome topics that concern (1) Chinese literature and (2) Western literature. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature in general or in particular works. We will welcome papers that (1) critically examine the different culture and cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature; (2) discusses the problems encountered in such cross-cutural communication; (3) what such communications contribute to Chinese or Western culture.

Minutes of the Kick-off meeting “EU JM Centre of Excellence for Digitalization of University Teaching” Nov 16, 2023, 10:00-11:30 am, HNU Tenglong Building, room 309
===Protocol: Martin Woesler===
===Participants===
Prof. Woesler, Prof. Jiang Lihua, Prof. Porter, PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Liu Rong, Zhouli Ziruo, Volunteer "Sari" Cai Xixiu.

===Next Meeting===
Friday Nov 24, 2023, 10:00 am room 309. For those who can only attend online: Zoom: http://bit.ly/ZOOMCOURSE

===Your contact people: The project staff===
Project Leader: Prof. Woesler, Project Assistants: PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Zhouli Ziruo, Liu Rong. The staff takes on the double task of conducting research (especially systematic literature reviews, surveys, field experiments testing different learning spaces or digital tools) and doing the administration (keeping the overview, watching the timeline, reports on the EU platform, reminding of deadlines, organizing meetings, inviting project members and external experts to joint papers, conferences, anthologies etc.).

===Salaries===
The project started in September and the project staff has already invested some work. So far, the payment of the salaries was not yet agreed to by the accounting office, they wanted more information. Still, there is a lot of work which needs to be done, including website and reports, until December. Therefore, it is important, that the accounting office already pays the monthly salaries to the project staff now in November.

===Budget===
The budget is quite large and except from the salary for the project staff contains several sub posts, like lump sum salary for students, travel reimbursement, equipment, website programming, conference costs etc. Prof. David Porter offered to design and create a EU and a CN website adhering to the respective policies.

===Personnel===
For the 5 Research Groups, the following heads were suggested:

#Regulation (Comparison) Liu Bai
#Experiences (Comparison) Aline
#Effectiveness of digital tools: David Porter, Ole Döring, Yang Zhiming

Explanation: (How to achieve learning outcomes of teaching in presence also with online or technology-enhanced teaching? Quality measurement.)
#Learning Spaces (Comparison): Jiang Lihua
#ChatGPT/PostEdit (Comparison C-EU): Martin Woesler

===Salary for Project Personnel and Project Members===
There is no monthly salary foreseen in the budget for all participants. But everybody who invests time in the project should be reimbursed. Since the publication of papers is the most important in the project, the project offers to reimburse all Professors and PhD candidates, who publish a paper to be reimbursed for 50 hours (each SCI, SSCI or A&HCI impact paper, corresponds to 1000 Euros for professors and 500 Euros for students), 25 hours (each CSSCI impact paper, corresponds to 500 Euros for professors and 250 Euros for students). Non PhD-Students (but Bachelor- or Master students) who participate, e.g. in the many time consuming tasks like literature review, surveys, field experiments, will be reimbursed with a lump sum per month and will be informed about the expected number of hours they are required to work.

===Credits and Acknowledgments===
Hunan Normal University needs to be mentioned as the affiliated university of both, the 1st and 2nd author. Also, the grant acknowledgement and disclaimer need to be printed with the paper, e.g. as a footnote or endnote. All posters, websites etc. need to display the EU Erasmus + co-funding logo.

===Things to do===
#Prof. Jiang: Please invite Prof. Liu Bai and Prof. Yang Zhiming.
#Prof. Jiang: Dean Situ and the Accounting office may contact you to reconfirm that the first money can be paid from the grant amount received.
#Ole: Please invite Prof. Aline Tedeschi
#Everybody: Please start to read the newest research papers on the topic. The library offers and EBSCO access. Ole can instruct student groups to perform different Systematic Literature Reviews. Languages should be at least Chinese and English. Some research questions should be developed through these literature reviews. Please keep in touch in the WeChat group and exchange your findings.

===Things to do for the project staff===
#Finalize report of old project (this part of the work is NOT paid by the new project) both on the EU platform as well as on the website http://jmchair.eu.
#Organize setting up a Website
#Get the frequent payments running with the accounting office in coordination with the College leadership.
#Conduct systematic literature reviews, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.
#Set up virtual working space on wiki and invite everybody to join. Publish there all findings.
#Invite everybody to the next meeting next Friday 10 am and collect points for the agenda from the participants.

P.S.: After the meeting, Prof. Jiang invited Prof. Woesler to join the current session of her Colloquium into room 410 (13:00-14:15). There he introduced the project again and offered the PhD candidates to join the project, preferrably assisting the head of research group 4, Prof. Jiang Lihua. PhD candidates are encouraged to join because they can make double use of their research for the project/publications and their thesis. Also, the participation in the project will be certified and can be used in the curriculum vitae for job applications.

Prof. Woesler, Prof. Porter, Prof. Ma Nake, PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Liu Rong, "Sari" Cai Xixiu.

===Next Meeting===
Scheduled for Tuesday Nov 29, 16:00 and 18:15 Chinese time room 309. For those who can only attend online: Tencent Meeting:https://meeting.tencent.com/dm/bCQdfgGlezZ1

===Budget and Salary===
For student volunteers the budget provides a total of 4,000 Yuan per month over the range of 3 years. Since there is a higher workload before and during conferences, we will have to be able to assign both salaries (e.g. for Cai Cixiu) and short-term contract salaries (e.g. for conferences). The project staff receives regular payments. The request for first payments has been submitted.

===Things to do===
#Sari: Please conduct a MikeCRM survey. Print the research questionnaire by Prof. Doering, and conduct the survey with the students who participated in the painting event. (When conducting the survey, the respondents’ initials with birth date (like WJG1001) can be used to code them, so that the privacy of respondents can be protected and we can compare and analyze developments.)
#Phd students: Please analyze the survey results of the last EU project, and upload the parts of the final report to the EU website (compare the answers of Prof. Woesler’s with the students’ answer and get the percentage both at the beginning and the end of the semester. If there is a progress, this would be a good result for the report.) Also copy documentation to website jmchair.eu.
#Prof. Porter: Thank you for submitting the first samples for a website. They are under review.
#Everybody: Start reading. Prepare systematic literature reviews on the project topic, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.

===Report by Martin Woesler on Grants for going to a French university as a visiting professor, chair professors===
For now, I recommend to already check out the grants to prepare a good application. Regarding the chair professor or visiting scholar programs for foreign professors in France, there are the following mostly financed by the EU, sometimes together with the French Ministry of Science (I have indicated all weblinks):

1. Chair Program with Universities and Grand Ecoles

In addition to receiving visiting professors or researchers, many French universities and Grandes Ecoles have chair programmes to welcome researchers from around the world. These programmes are usually designed for specific scientific problems and last for a limited time. The Collège de France in particular has developed a programme of excellence in which many chairs are reserved for foreign researchers or professors. www.college-de-france.fr.

2. Chair Programs with Research Establishments

Further, there are corporate chairs that enable foreign researchers to work with a company and research establishment for up to 2 years. This programme is financed by the French National Research Agency.

Everybody please prepare a 1 minute input what you found out so far from the literature, about experts we can invite and what you want to conduct research on.

===Input by David Porter===
Pardon any typos. As mentioned last time I would recommend we invite Prof. Luis Cordeiro-Rodrigues from Hunan University as he has experience with AI and ethics and is ‘right next door’ so to speak. I am happy to reach out to him but I think it would be good to have a formal CFP or fixed plan so that I can explain exactly what we would be invited for and when.

If invited speakers don’t have to be university-affiliated academics I would recommend Matt Sheehan (matt.sheehan@ceip.org) who is a fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a journal and involved with various think-tanks relating to global technology (including China - he is supposed to be fluent in Chinese). Zhu Junhua (junzhu@utu.fi https://www.utu.fi/en/people/junhua-zhu ) is a doctoral student at University of Turku, and so still an early career scholar but is doing work on AI governance and ethics who might be someone who can bridge the Europe-China divide. We all come across a lot of names, so it might be good to have a more settled idea of what our conference might focus on more narrowly?

I want to focus on AI and university teaching with a comparative focus on Europe and China. Even in the past few years there are thousands of relevant articles but I will focus on a few more specific and nuanced research goals in the next couple months. It will likely relate to the adoption of AI in educational institutions in both regions during and post-COVID, impact of AI on student engagement, and overall learning outcomes but I want to tie into ethical considerations. Can put this crudely:
1) How extensively is AI tech currently integrated into university teaching in Europe and China?
2) How do educators perceive and navigate the associated challenges with AI and their teaching practices? (ethics here).
3) What is the impact of AI on outcomes: academic performance, yes, but also student engagement and real learning outcomes (not just bullshit test scores) in European and Chinese universities?
4) What about institutional, cultural or contextual differences that shape the adoption and impact of AI in university teaching between Europe and China?

I am still working on Literature Review and narrowing down what lit to review since comprehensiveness is impossible/obsolete the day after it is done. I want to work this into something of a comparative analysis between Europe and China in terms of AI adoption and its impact on university teaching (not exactly that but something like that). Before next semester I want to have a tangible plan for some surveys to gather qualitative and quantitative data. I have a timeline to do the preliminary work by March and serious development for something that can be submitted for publication next Fall (optimistically October, absit omen).

Participatory research on using virtual reality to teach ocean acidification: a study in the marine education communityENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION RESEARCHFauville, G., Queiroz, A. M., Hambrick, L., Brown, B. A., Bailenson, J. N.2020
Abstract
Ocean Acidification (OA) is an emerging environmental issue that is still largely unknown to the public and in its infancy in terms of educational strategies. OA teaching material should address the specific challenges that educators face while building learners’ understanding of OA. The objective of this study is two-fold. First, we identified the barriers to teaching OA as experienced by formal and informal marine educators. Second, we provided educators an opportunity to experience virtual reality and discuss how it could serve as a tool for face-to-face and distance learning to address the identified challenges. The findings shed light on four overarching themes of challenges to teaching OA: lack of science literacy, unprepared education field, complex and invisible nature of OA and lack of personal connection with the ocean. Marine educators consider empowerment, perspective-taking and visualization as the three principal avenues through which virtual reality may contribute to mitigating the challenges to teaching OA.

Designing for Relationality in Virtual Reality: Context-Specific Learning as a Primer for Content Relevancy JOURNAL OF SCIENCE EDUCATION AND TECHNOLOGYBoda, P. A., Brown, B.2020
Abstract
Science achievement gaps exhibit racial disparities starting in primary grades and have been shown to persist through middle and high school. In turn, increasing positive attitudes toward science have been shown as one factor that affects academic achievement and motivation among K-12 students. Exploring novel ways that technology can influence diverse students’ attitudes toward science, and the design elements pertinent therein, is thus one prominent goal toward achieving science education for all. Leveraging the immersive nature of Virtual Reality 360 videos, we present a design-based research iteration testing how a novel technology-enhanced learning experience influenced close to 400 urban elementary students’ attitudes toward science. Using a two-way MANCOVA analysis, the data support that our design iteration emphasizing context-specific learningcan prime students that do not see science as relevant to them to change these attitudes in significantly positive ways. Implications are discussed around relationality, technology use in urban schools, and local contexts as learning resources.

The impact of artificial intelligence on learner–instructor interaction in online learning
K Seo, J Tang, I Roll, S Fels, D Yoon
International journal of educational technology in higher education 18 (1), 1-23

Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) systems offer effective support for online learning and teaching, including personalizing learning for students, automating instructors’ routine tasks, and powering adaptive assessments. However, while the opportunities for AI are promising, the impact of AI systems on the culture of, norms in, and expectations about interactions between students and instructors are still elusive. In online learning, learner–instructor interaction (inter alia, communication, support, and presence) has a profound impact on students’ satisfaction and learning outcomes. Thus, identifying how students and instructors perceive the impact of AI systems on their interaction is important to identify any gaps, challenges, or barriers preventing AI systems from achieving their intended potential and risking the safety of these interactions. To address this need for forward-looking decisions, we used Speed Dating with storyboards to analyze the authentic voices of 12 students and 11 instructors on diverse use cases of possible AI systems in online learning. Findings show that participants envision adopting AI systems in online learning can enable personalized learner–instructor interaction at scale but at the risk of violating social boundaries. Although AI systems have been positively recognized for improving the quantity and quality of communication, for providing just-in-time, personalized support for large-scale settings, and for improving the feeling of connection, there were concerns about responsibility, agency, and surveillance issues. These findings have implications for the design of AI systems to ensure explainability, human-in-the-loop, and careful data collection and presentation. Overall, contributions of this study include the design of AI system storyboards which are technically feasible and positively support learner–instructor interaction, capturing students’ and instructors’ concerns of AI systems through Speed Dating, and suggesting practical implications for maximizing the positive impact of AI systems while minimizing the negative ones

Personalized Education in the AI Era: What to Expect Next?
Setareh Maghsudi, Andrew Lan, Jie Xu, Mihaela van der Schaar

https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2101.10074

Abstract

The objective of personalized learning is to design an effective knowledge acquisition track that matches the learner's strengths and bypasses her weaknesses to ultimately meet her desired goal. This concept emerged several years ago and is being adopted by a rapidly-growing number of educational institutions around the globe. In recent years, the boost of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), together with the advances in big data analysis, has unfolded novel perspectives to enhance personalized education in numerous dimensions. By taking advantage of AI/ML methods, the educational platform precisely acquires the student's characteristics. This is done, in part, by observing the past experiences as well as analyzing the available big data through exploring the learners' features and similarities. It can, for example, recommend the most appropriate content among numerous accessible ones, advise a well-designed long-term curriculum, connect appropriate learners by suggestion, accurate performance evaluation, and the like. Still, several aspects of AI-based personalized education remain unexplored. These include, among others, compensating for the adverse effects of the absence of peers, creating and maintaining motivations for learning, increasing diversity, removing the biases induced by the data and algorithms, and the like. In this paper, while providing a brief review of state-of-the-art research, we investigate the challenges of AI/ML-based personalized education and discuss potential solutions.

===Report on Final Report last JM project===
Our final report for the last project (2020-2023) has been submitted to the EU.
===Report on deliverable 1.1 „Website“ due December 2024===
===Input by Sari===
For the ai education prevalence, but that ‘s only in the cities and small towns. It give impression to itself in regional and rural inequalities. It is obviously reflected in the lack of educational resources in the areas below the county level, the low investment in education, and the low level of system construction. The quality and level of education in poor areas is relatively poor, leaving children vulnerable to disparities. Although in the cities,there is not every student has access to this technology. Only in parts of the school and rich families. To solve these problems, the cooperation of the government and the education sector, as well as the charity sector, is needed. The rich need not only to benefit from it but also to play an important role in it rather than contributing to it.

=PREPARATION OF WACS 8 2024 in Poznan/Athens/Changsha=

Ideas to professionalize our annual conference and to win more people to participate
#we only recommend a conference hotel with a conference discount, but the participants book directly with the hotel. This helps us to lower the conference fees to maybe 190€. Also, we only accept international bank payment directly to the association‘s account.
#We should send a flyer to us universities in order to get some PhD candidates, who can present part of their Thesis. And of course scholars as a main target group.
#Last time we also improved: double blind peer review,
# issuing travel stipends,
#awards in different categories,
#chairs and discussants for all panels,
#hybrid format.

With budget cut over the years, except for the few very well-endowed private univs, in the US, most professors only have 1 trip paid. They will choose the most relevant and established one or two. Graduate students basically pay for themselves, so they only go to AAS and/or AAS Regional conferences.

With zoom, you have more flexibility.

Dan's perspectives are from those in linguistics, a much smaller group than the scope WACS advertises.

1. As a very young asso., even with high level and strong backing, you cannot compete with the established ones.

2. Your initial vision seemed to be a platform to bring in prc sinologists who don't work with the Eng lang.

3. But you also include Eng lang papers.

4. The last few years show that W European & N Am scholars are not attracted to the conference.

A) Some feedback seems to be this is a crazy group of people, a nicer way of saying they are unprofessional and disorganised.

B) The dates may be a part of it but less critical than the messiness.

5) So two issues:

A) the volume and national variety of participants; and

B) the asso's administration of the conferences.

6) Possible remedies:

A) you need a systematic way of proactively reaching out to universities and colleges all over the world, by sending the departments information about the coming year's conference & links, etc.

You have to do this every year. Your conference's scope covers culture, history, ling., lit, phil, pol sci, etc., so to each of these departments, a notice could be sent.

You can do so with a master list by approaching a certain number in each continent the first year, then adding a few more for that country the next year, and so on.

You can even target specific regions/ continents in different years. You are in Eastern Europe, it's a good time to get them to participate. Maybe alongside, this year, it is SE Asia. (Next year, it could be S. Am & Australia as specific targets.)

B) The asso's org: herein lies the foundation of the problem. Until you look hard into it and take serious steps to overhaul it, putting in place functional committees with members who put in time and energy to administer and operate the asso., hence the conference as well, even if (A) is successful one year, it will evaporate in a handful of years.

7) In short, it is necessary to prioritise the structural/ organisational reform in administration & operation, before the change of dates.

8) Since changing the dates in a big way may not bring in many more new participants, you may want to hold it off.

A) You may want to have someone to do a quick research to see when, e.g. Asia & SE Asia is most unlikely to attend a conf, then when in S Am, etc., and the reasons. You get an overview, then you decide.

*Lihua Jiang helps to solve the following problems: JM grant (the first amount has to be paid to the participating teachers), Seed grant (will reimburse flight costs and student assistants' salaries), admission of international student Markus Mueller to PhD program, admission of Olha Woesler to BA program to collect more certificates for teaching at FSC
=Successfully completed tasks=
*We have submitted the [[Interview by Wan Shuyuan 2022]], it got more than 1 million readers and was republished on several platforms including the website of the Chinese Embassy in Germany
*The JM budget of 40.000 Euros was moved from "Research" to "Education" 教务处 and paid to the participating teachers. Now we need to provide evidence for more teachings so that the remaining 10.000 Euros and 16.667 Euros matching funds from the university can be spent and 10,000 Euros will be reimbursed upon delivery of the report.

'''Funds Management'''
*Submit a new Seed Grant 启动资金 to Administration: So in the new budget, we should have maybe 55.000 Yuan travel and (quarantine) hotel cost, 10.000 Yuan office 309 和 415 设备 (比如冰箱、饮水机), 30.000 Yuan salary for assistants, 5.000 Yuan budget for books and decoration (statues, paintings) we buy for the two walls and bookshelfs in both offices. If it is not possible to buy fridge etc. from it, we can plan this money differently. I am afraid we will spend all the money totally soon. Therefore, I will have to apply for a second budget maybe for 2023. I don't know if they grant me a second budget.
*The EU Grant requires to spend 67.000 Euros first, submit spending receipts and then apply for reimbursement of remaining 10.000 Euros. This means that the university has to release the 40.000 Euros now, is ready to spend the remaining 27.000 Euros then and get reimbursed only 10.000 Euros later.
*Read into the technical requirements of managing EU funds, this includes registering on web sites, filling out forms, submitting information and requesting fundings, controlling the funds arriving at the HUNNU account, forwarding it to the recipients at HUNNU, coordinating with financial department of HUNNU.

===CFP “Young Chinese and their world view” European Journal of Chinese Studies 3 (2020) Special Issue===

'''Sample CFP'''

CFP: The Journal of Northeast Asian History Vol. 19-1

Type: Call for Papers

Location: Korea South

Subject Fields: Asian History / Studies, Chinese History / Studies, East Asian History / Studies, Japanese History / Studies, Korean History / Studies

CFP: The Journal of Northeast Asian History Vol. 19-1

Dear Colleagues,

The Northeast Asian History Foundation continues to expand its interaction with scholars specializing in Asian history and related fields outside East Asia. The Foundation is also strengthening its ties with leading institutions and scholars by encouraging interdisciplinary and comparative approaches to research on geopolitical, cultural, educational, and other issues in East Asia.

The Foundation publishes the Journal of Northeast Asian History (JNAH), a peer-reviewed semi-annual English-language journal that focuses on history-based approaches to Asian politics, cultures, economy and other fields to shed light on the historical realities of the Asian World. The Journal's geographical scope extends to other parts of the world which have significant relevancy to Asian history, thus charting globalism and localism from global perspectives.

In particular, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Korea-China Relations and Historical Configuration in Northeast Asia and (2) US-China Relations and Historical Issues in East Asia, both of which will help explore further how inter-state and intra-state matters were and are liked together to the historical development of continental East Asia and how the confluence of these external and internal factors have been making vital impact on the various mode of regional interaction in modern East Asia and beyond.

The Journal of Northeast Asian History calls for the submission of outstanding and unpublished papers for review and possible publication in Winter 2022. We invite colleagues to consider the Journal when seeking to publish ongoing research since we believe this can be an impetus for further scholarly collaboration in the future. For full consideration, please submit manuscripts by July 31, 2022 for Winter Issue.

Please contact us at jnah@nahf.or.kr or jnah.nahf@gmail.com should you have any questions regarding the journal, its submission process or subscription to it.

'''CFP:''' “David versus Goliath - Souvereignty issues of small countries and regions neighboring large countries” European Journal of Chinese Studies 4 (2021)

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — the most consequential military conflict Europe has witnessed since the Second World War — has riveted the attention of the world. Almost inevitably people look to draw analogies — both historical and contemporary ones. One popular contemporary analogy is between Russia’s actions vis-à-vis Ukraine and mainland China’s approach to Taiwan.

In this issue, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Russia-Ukraine and (2) Mainland China-Taiwan. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine the two comparisons. We aim to bring together papers that (1) critically examine the differentiated situation of the two large authoriatarian nations; (2) discuss the ways in which two large authoritarian nations exert control on smaller neighbors; and (3) comparison with the approach of non-authoritarian large nations towards smaller neighbors; (4) consequences for world order, stability, peace and economical development.

Communication is among the best ways to resolve differences and strengthen cooperation. At an age when "anti-globalization" continues to characterize global situation; conservatism and ultra-nationalism are on the rise; and regional conflicts become frequent, cross-cultural communication seems to be particularly meaningful.

In this issue, we will welcome topics that concern (1) Chinese literature and (2) Western literature. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature in general or in particular works. We will welcome papers that (1) critically examine the different culture and cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature; (2) discusses the problems encountered in such cross-cutural communication; (3) what such communications contribute to Chinese or Western culture.

Minutes of the Kick-off meeting “EU JM Centre of Excellence for Digitalization of University Teaching” Nov 16, 2023, 10:00-11:30 am, HNU Tenglong Building, room 309
===Protocol: Martin Woesler===
===Participants===
Prof. Woesler, Prof. Jiang Lihua, Prof. Porter, PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Liu Rong, Zhouli Ziruo, Volunteer "Sari" Cai Xixiu.

===Next Meeting===
Friday Nov 24, 2023, 10:00 am room 309. For those who can only attend online: Zoom: http://bit.ly/ZOOMCOURSE

===Your contact people: The project staff===
Project Leader: Prof. Woesler, Project Assistants: PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Zhouli Ziruo, Liu Rong. The staff takes on the double task of conducting research (especially systematic literature reviews, surveys, field experiments testing different learning spaces or digital tools) and doing the administration (keeping the overview, watching the timeline, reports on the EU platform, reminding of deadlines, organizing meetings, inviting project members and external experts to joint papers, conferences, anthologies etc.).

===Salaries===
The project started in September and the project staff has already invested some work. So far, the payment of the salaries was not yet agreed to by the accounting office, they wanted more information. Still, there is a lot of work which needs to be done, including website and reports, until December. Therefore, it is important, that the accounting office already pays the monthly salaries to the project staff now in November.

===Budget===
The budget is quite large and except from the salary for the project staff contains several sub posts, like lump sum salary for students, travel reimbursement, equipment, website programming, conference costs etc. Prof. David Porter offered to design and create a EU and a CN website adhering to the respective policies.

===Personnel===
For the 5 Research Groups, the following heads were suggested:

#Regulation (Comparison) Liu Bai
#Experiences (Comparison) Aline
#Effectiveness of digital tools: David Porter, Ole Döring, Yang Zhiming

Explanation: (How to achieve learning outcomes of teaching in presence also with online or technology-enhanced teaching? Quality measurement.)
#Learning Spaces (Comparison): Jiang Lihua
#ChatGPT/PostEdit (Comparison C-EU): Martin Woesler

===Salary for Project Personnel and Project Members===
There is no monthly salary foreseen in the budget for all participants. But everybody who invests time in the project should be reimbursed. Since the publication of papers is the most important in the project, the project offers to reimburse all Professors and PhD candidates, who publish a paper to be reimbursed for 50 hours (each SCI, SSCI or A&HCI impact paper, corresponds to 1000 Euros for professors and 500 Euros for students), 25 hours (each CSSCI impact paper, corresponds to 500 Euros for professors and 250 Euros for students). Non PhD-Students (but Bachelor- or Master students) who participate, e.g. in the many time consuming tasks like literature review, surveys, field experiments, will be reimbursed with a lump sum per month and will be informed about the expected number of hours they are required to work.

===Credits and Acknowledgments===
Hunan Normal University needs to be mentioned as the affiliated university of both, the 1st and 2nd author. Also, the grant acknowledgement and disclaimer need to be printed with the paper, e.g. as a footnote or endnote. All posters, websites etc. need to display the EU Erasmus + co-funding logo.

===Things to do===
#Prof. Jiang: Please invite Prof. Liu Bai and Prof. Yang Zhiming.
#Prof. Jiang: Dean Situ and the Accounting office may contact you to reconfirm that the first money can be paid from the grant amount received.
#Ole: Please invite Prof. Aline Tedeschi
#Everybody: Please start to read the newest research papers on the topic. The library offers and EBSCO access. Ole can instruct student groups to perform different Systematic Literature Reviews. Languages should be at least Chinese and English. Some research questions should be developed through these literature reviews. Please keep in touch in the WeChat group and exchange your findings.

===Things to do for the project staff===
#Finalize report of old project (this part of the work is NOT paid by the new project) both on the EU platform as well as on the website http://jmchair.eu.
#Organize setting up a Website
#Get the frequent payments running with the accounting office in coordination with the College leadership.
#Conduct systematic literature reviews, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.
#Set up virtual working space on wiki and invite everybody to join. Publish there all findings.
#Invite everybody to the next meeting next Friday 10 am and collect points for the agenda from the participants.

P.S.: After the meeting, Prof. Jiang invited Prof. Woesler to join the current session of her Colloquium into room 410 (13:00-14:15). There he introduced the project again and offered the PhD candidates to join the project, preferrably assisting the head of research group 4, Prof. Jiang Lihua. PhD candidates are encouraged to join because they can make double use of their research for the project/publications and their thesis. Also, the participation in the project will be certified and can be used in the curriculum vitae for job applications.

Minutes of the second weekly meeting “EU JM Centre of Excellence for Digitalization of University Teaching” Nov 24, 2023, 10:00-11:30 am, HNNU Tenglong Building, room 309

===Protocal: Liu Rong, edited: Martin Woesler===

===Participants===
Prof. Woesler, Prof. Porter, Prof. Ma Nake, PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Liu Rong, "Sari" Cai Xixiu.

===Next Meeting===
Scheduled for Tuesday Nov 29, 16:00 and 18:15 Chinese time room 309. For those who can only attend online: Tencent Meeting:https://meeting.tencent.com/dm/bCQdfgGlezZ1

===Budget and Salary===
For student volunteers the budget provides a total of 4,000 Yuan per month over the range of 3 years. Since there is a higher workload before and during conferences, we will have to be able to assign both salaries (e.g. for Cai Cixiu) and short-term contract salaries (e.g. for conferences). The project staff receives regular payments. The request for first payments has been submitted.

===Things to do===
#Sari: Please conduct a MikeCRM survey. Print the research questionnaire by Prof. Doering, and conduct the survey with the students who participated in the painting event. (When conducting the survey, the respondents’ initials with birth date (like WJG1001) can be used to code them, so that the privacy of respondents can be protected and we can compare and analyze developments.)
#Phd students: Please analyze the survey results of the last EU project, and upload the parts of the final report to the EU website (compare the answers of Prof. Woesler’s with the students’ answer and get the percentage both at the beginning and the end of the semester. If there is a progress, this would be a good result for the report.) Also copy documentation to website jmchair.eu.
#Prof. Porter: Thank you for submitting the first samples for a website. They are under review.
#Everybody: Start reading. Prepare systematic literature reviews on the project topic, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.

===Report by Martin Woesler on Grants for going to a French university as a visiting professor, chair professors===
For now, I recommend to already check out the grants to prepare a good application. Regarding the chair professor or visiting scholar programs for foreign professors in France, there are the following mostly financed by the EU, sometimes together with the French Ministry of Science (I have indicated all weblinks):

1. Chair Program with Universities and Grand Ecoles

In addition to receiving visiting professors or researchers, many French universities and Grandes Ecoles have chair programmes to welcome researchers from around the world. These programmes are usually designed for specific scientific problems and last for a limited time. The Collège de France in particular has developed a programme of excellence in which many chairs are reserved for foreign researchers or professors. www.college-de-france.fr.

2. Chair Programs with Research Establishments

Further, there are corporate chairs that enable foreign researchers to work with a company and research establishment for up to 2 years. This programme is financed by the French National Research Agency.

We meet both in person in office #309 and online on Zoom: https://zoom.us/j/5739416744?pwd=c3h5L0NnY0xCWjlEMWhuNTBMbE92UT09

Everybody please prepare a 1 minute input what you found out so far from the literature, about experts we can invite and what you want to conduct research on.

===Input by David Porter===
Pardon any typos. As mentioned last time I would recommend we invite Prof. Luis Cordeiro-Rodrigues from Hunan University as he has experience with AI and ethics and is ‘right next door’ so to speak. I am happy to reach out to him but I think it would be good to have a formal CFP or fixed plan so that I can explain exactly what we would be invited for and when.

If invited speakers don’t have to be university-affiliated academics I would recommend Matt Sheehan (matt.sheehan@ceip.org) who is a fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a journal and involved with various think-tanks relating to global technology (including China - he is supposed to be fluent in Chinese). Zhu Junhua (junzhu@utu.fi https://www.utu.fi/en/people/junhua-zhu ) is a doctoral student at University of Turku, and so still an early career scholar but is doing work on AI governance and ethics who might be someone who can bridge the Europe-China divide. We all come across a lot of names, so it might be good to have a more settled idea of what our conference might focus on more narrowly?

I want to focus on AI and university teaching with a comparative focus on Europe and China. Even in the past few years there are thousands of relevant articles but I will focus on a few more specific and nuanced research goals in the next couple months. It will likely relate to the adoption of AI in educational institutions in both regions during and post-COVID, impact of AI on student engagement, and overall learning outcomes but I want to tie into ethical considerations. Can put this crudely:
1) How extensively is AI tech currently integrated into university teaching in Europe and China?
2) How do educators perceive and navigate the associated challenges with AI and their teaching practices? (ethics here).
3) What is the impact of AI on outcomes: academic performance, yes, but also student engagement and real learning outcomes (not just bullshit test scores) in European and Chinese universities?
4) What about institutional, cultural or contextual differences that shape the adoption and impact of AI in university teaching between Europe and China?

I am still working on Literature Review and narrowing down what lit to review since comprehensiveness is impossible/obsolete the day after it is done. I want to work this into something of a comparative analysis between Europe and China in terms of AI adoption and its impact on university teaching (not exactly that but something like that). Before next semester I want to have a tangible plan for some surveys to gather qualitative and quantitative data. I have a timeline to do the preliminary work by March and serious development for something that can be submitted for publication next Fall (optimistically October, absit omen).

Participatory research on using virtual reality to teach ocean acidification: a study in the marine education communityENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION RESEARCHFauville, G., Queiroz, A. M., Hambrick, L., Brown, B. A., Bailenson, J. N.2020
Abstract
Ocean Acidification (OA) is an emerging environmental issue that is still largely unknown to the public and in its infancy in terms of educational strategies. OA teaching material should address the specific challenges that educators face while building learners’ understanding of OA. The objective of this study is two-fold. First, we identified the barriers to teaching OA as experienced by formal and informal marine educators. Second, we provided educators an opportunity to experience virtual reality and discuss how it could serve as a tool for face-to-face and distance learning to address the identified challenges. The findings shed light on four overarching themes of challenges to teaching OA: lack of science literacy, unprepared education field, complex and invisible nature of OA and lack of personal connection with the ocean. Marine educators consider empowerment, perspective-taking and visualization as the three principal avenues through which virtual reality may contribute to mitigating the challenges to teaching OA.

Designing for Relationality in Virtual Reality: Context-Specific Learning as a Primer for Content Relevancy JOURNAL OF SCIENCE EDUCATION AND TECHNOLOGYBoda, P. A., Brown, B.2020
Abstract
Science achievement gaps exhibit racial disparities starting in primary grades and have been shown to persist through middle and high school. In turn, increasing positive attitudes toward science have been shown as one factor that affects academic achievement and motivation among K-12 students. Exploring novel ways that technology can influence diverse students’ attitudes toward science, and the design elements pertinent therein, is thus one prominent goal toward achieving science education for all. Leveraging the immersive nature of Virtual Reality 360 videos, we present a design-based research iteration testing how a novel technology-enhanced learning experience influenced close to 400 urban elementary students’ attitudes toward science. Using a two-way MANCOVA analysis, the data support that our design iteration emphasizing context-specific learningcan prime students that do not see science as relevant to them to change these attitudes in significantly positive ways. Implications are discussed around relationality, technology use in urban schools, and local contexts as learning resources.

The impact of artificial intelligence on learner–instructor interaction in online learning
K Seo, J Tang, I Roll, S Fels, D Yoon
International journal of educational technology in higher education 18 (1), 1-23

Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) systems offer effective support for online learning and teaching, including personalizing learning for students, automating instructors’ routine tasks, and powering adaptive assessments. However, while the opportunities for AI are promising, the impact of AI systems on the culture of, norms in, and expectations about interactions between students and instructors are still elusive. In online learning, learner–instructor interaction (inter alia, communication, support, and presence) has a profound impact on students’ satisfaction and learning outcomes. Thus, identifying how students and instructors perceive the impact of AI systems on their interaction is important to identify any gaps, challenges, or barriers preventing AI systems from achieving their intended potential and risking the safety of these interactions. To address this need for forward-looking decisions, we used Speed Dating with storyboards to analyze the authentic voices of 12 students and 11 instructors on diverse use cases of possible AI systems in online learning. Findings show that participants envision adopting AI systems in online learning can enable personalized learner–instructor interaction at scale but at the risk of violating social boundaries. Although AI systems have been positively recognized for improving the quantity and quality of communication, for providing just-in-time, personalized support for large-scale settings, and for improving the feeling of connection, there were concerns about responsibility, agency, and surveillance issues. These findings have implications for the design of AI systems to ensure explainability, human-in-the-loop, and careful data collection and presentation. Overall, contributions of this study include the design of AI system storyboards which are technically feasible and positively support learner–instructor interaction, capturing students’ and instructors’ concerns of AI systems through Speed Dating, and suggesting practical implications for maximizing the positive impact of AI systems while minimizing the negative ones

Abstract

The objective of personalized learning is to design an effective knowledge acquisition track that matches the learner's strengths and bypasses her weaknesses to ultimately meet her desired goal. This concept emerged several years ago and is being adopted by a rapidly-growing number of educational institutions around the globe. In recent years, the boost of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), together with the advances in big data analysis, has unfolded novel perspectives to enhance personalized education in numerous dimensions. By taking advantage of AI/ML methods, the educational platform precisely acquires the student's characteristics. This is done, in part, by observing the past experiences as well as analyzing the available big data through exploring the learners' features and similarities. It can, for example, recommend the most appropriate content among numerous accessible ones, advise a well-designed long-term curriculum, connect appropriate learners by suggestion, accurate performance evaluation, and the like. Still, several aspects of AI-based personalized education remain unexplored. These include, among others, compensating for the adverse effects of the absence of peers, creating and maintaining motivations for learning, increasing diversity, removing the biases induced by the data and algorithms, and the like. In this paper, while providing a brief review of state-of-the-art research, we investigate the challenges of AI/ML-based personalized education and discuss potential solutions.

===Report on deliverable 1.1 „Website“ due December 2024===
===Input by Sari===
For the ai education prevalence, but that ‘s only in the cities and small towns. It give impression to itself in regional and rural inequalities. It is obviously reflected in the lack of educational resources in the areas below the county level, the low investment in education, and the low level of system construction. The quality and level of education in poor areas is relatively poor, leaving children vulnerable to disparities. Although in the cities,there is not every student has access to this technology. Only in parts of the school and rich families. To solve these problems, the cooperation of the government and the education sector, as well as the charity sector, is needed. The rich need not only to benefit from it but also to play an important role in it rather than contributing to it.

=PREPARATION OF WACS 8 2024 in Poznan/Athens/Changsha=

Ideas to professionalize our annual conference and to win more people to participate
#we only recommend a conference hotel with a conference discount, but the participants book directly with the hotel. This helps us to lower the conference fees to maybe 190€. Also, we only accept international bank payment directly to the association‘s account.
#We should send a flyer to us universities in order to get some PhD candidates, who can present part of their Thesis. And of course scholars as a main target group.
#Last time we also improved: double blind peer review,
# issuing travel stipends,
#awards in different categories,
#chairs and discussants for all panels,
#hybrid format.

With budget cut over the years, except for the few very well-endowed private univs, in the US, most professors only have 1 trip paid. They will choose the most relevant and established one or two. Graduate students basically pay for themselves, so they only go to AAS and/or AAS Regional conferences.

With zoom, you have more flexibility.

Dan's perspectives are from those in linguistics, a much smaller group than the scope WACS advertises.

1. As a very young asso., even with high level and strong backing, you cannot compete with the established ones.

2. Your initial vision seemed to be a platform to bring in prc sinologists who don't work with the Eng lang.

3. But you also include Eng lang papers.

4. The last few years show that W European & N Am scholars are not attracted to the conference.

A) Some feedback seems to be this is a crazy group of people, a nicer way of saying they are unprofessional and disorganised.

B) The dates may be a part of it but less critical than the messiness.

5) So two issues:

A) the volume and national variety of participants; and

B) the asso's administration of the conferences.

6) Possible remedies:

A) you need a systematic way of proactively reaching out to universities and colleges all over the world, by sending the departments information about the coming year's conference & links, etc.

You have to do this every year. Your conference's scope covers culture, history, ling., lit, phil, pol sci, etc., so to each of these departments, a notice could be sent.

You can do so with a master list by approaching a certain number in each continent the first year, then adding a few more for that country the next year, and so on.

You can even target specific regions/ continents in different years. You are in Eastern Europe, it's a good time to get them to participate. Maybe alongside, this year, it is SE Asia. (Next year, it could be S. Am & Australia as specific targets.)

B) The asso's org: herein lies the foundation of the problem. Until you look hard into it and take serious steps to overhaul it, putting in place functional committees with members who put in time and energy to administer and operate the asso., hence the conference as well, even if (A) is successful one year, it will evaporate in a handful of years.

7) In short, it is necessary to prioritise the structural/ organisational reform in administration & operation, before the change of dates.

8) Since changing the dates in a big way may not bring in many more new participants, you may want to hold it off.

A) You may want to have someone to do a quick research to see when, e.g. Asia & SE Asia is most unlikely to attend a conf, then when in S Am, etc., and the reasons. You get an overview, then you decide.

*Submit a new Seed Grant 启动资金 to Administration: So in the new budget, we should have maybe 55.000 Yuan travel and (quarantine) hotel cost, 10.000 Yuan office 309 和 415 设备 (比如冰箱、饮水机), 30.000 Yuan salary for assistants, 5.000 Yuan budget for books and decoration (statues, paintings) we buy for the two walls and bookshelfs in both offices. If it is not possible to buy fridge etc. from it, we can plan this money differently. I am afraid we will spend all the money totally soon. Therefore, I will have to apply for a second budget maybe for 2023. I don't know if they grant me a second budget.
*The EU Grant requires to spend 67.000 Euros first, submit spending receipts and then apply for reimbursement of remaining 10.000 Euros. This means that the university has to release the 40.000 Euros now, is ready to spend the remaining 27.000 Euros then and get reimbursed only 10.000 Euros later.
*Read into the technical requirements of managing EU funds, this includes registering on web sites, filling out forms, submitting information and requesting fundings, controlling the funds arriving at the HUNNU account, forwarding it to the recipients at HUNNU, coordinating with financial department of HUNNU.

Type: Call for Papers

Location: Korea South

Subject Fields: Asian History / Studies, Chinese History / Studies, East Asian History / Studies, Japanese History / Studies, Korean History / Studies

CFP: The Journal of Northeast Asian History Vol. 19-1

Dear Colleagues,

The Northeast Asian History Foundation continues to expand its interaction with scholars specializing in Asian history and related fields outside East Asia. The Foundation is also strengthening its ties with leading institutions and scholars by encouraging interdisciplinary and comparative approaches to research on geopolitical, cultural, educational, and other issues in East Asia.

The Foundation publishes the Journal of Northeast Asian History (JNAH), a peer-reviewed semi-annual English-language journal that focuses on history-based approaches to Asian politics, cultures, economy and other fields to shed light on the historical realities of the Asian World. The Journal's geographical scope extends to other parts of the world which have significant relevancy to Asian history, thus charting globalism and localism from global perspectives.

In particular, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Korea-China Relations and Historical Configuration in Northeast Asia and (2) US-China Relations and Historical Issues in East Asia, both of which will help explore further how inter-state and intra-state matters were and are liked together to the historical development of continental East Asia and how the confluence of these external and internal factors have been making vital impact on the various mode of regional interaction in modern East Asia and beyond.

The Journal of Northeast Asian History calls for the submission of outstanding and unpublished papers for review and possible publication in Winter 2022. We invite colleagues to consider the Journal when seeking to publish ongoing research since we believe this can be an impetus for further scholarly collaboration in the future. For full consideration, please submit manuscripts by July 31, 2022 for Winter Issue.

Please contact us at jnah@nahf.or.kr or jnah.nahf@gmail.com should you have any questions regarding the journal, its submission process or subscription to it.
Thank you in advance for your attention and contributions.

'''CFP:''' “David versus Goliath - Souvereignty issues of small countries and regions neighboring large countries” European Journal of Chinese Studies 4 (2021)

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — the most consequential military conflict Europe has witnessed since the Second World War — has riveted the attention of the world. Almost inevitably people look to draw analogies — both historical and contemporary ones. One popular contemporary analogy is between Russia’s actions vis-à-vis Ukraine and mainland China’s approach to Taiwan.

In this issue, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Russia-Ukraine and (2) Mainland China-Taiwan. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine the two comparisons. We aim to bring together papers that (1) critically examine the differentiated situation of the two large authoriatarian nations; (2) discuss the ways in which two large authoritarian nations exert control on smaller neighbors; and (3) comparison with the approach of non-authoritarian large nations towards smaller neighbors; (4) consequences for world order, stability, peace and economical development.

Communication is among the best ways to resolve differences and strengthen cooperation. At an age when "anti-globalization" continues to characterize global situation; conservatism and ultra-nationalism are on the rise; and regional conflicts become frequent, cross-cultural communication seems to be particularly meaningful.

In this issue, we will welcome topics that concern (1) Chinese literature and (2) Western literature. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature in general or in particular works. We will welcome papers that (1) critically examine the different culture and cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature; (2) discusses the problems encountered in such cross-cutural communication; (3) what such communications contribute to Chinese or Western culture.

Minutes of the Kick-off meeting “EU JM Centre of Excellence for Digitalization of University Teaching” Nov 16, 2023, 10:00-11:30 am, HNU Tenglong Building, room 309
===Protocol: Martin Woesler===
===Participants===
Prof. Woesler, Prof. Jiang Lihua, Prof. Porter, PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Liu Rong, Zhouli Ziruo, Volunteer "Sari" Cai Xixiu.

===Next Meeting===
Friday Nov 24, 2023, 10:00 am room 309. For those who can only attend online: Zoom: http://bit.ly/ZOOMCOURSE

===Your contact people: The project staff===
Project Leader: Prof. Woesler, Project Assistants: PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Zhouli Ziruo, Liu Rong. The staff takes on the double task of conducting research (especially systematic literature reviews, surveys, field experiments testing different learning spaces or digital tools) and doing the administration (keeping the overview, watching the timeline, reports on the EU platform, reminding of deadlines, organizing meetings, inviting project members and external experts to joint papers, conferences, anthologies etc.).

===Salaries===
The project started in September and the project staff has already invested some work. So far, the payment of the salaries was not yet agreed to by the accounting office, they wanted more information. Still, there is a lot of work which needs to be done, including website and reports, until December. Therefore, it is important, that the accounting office already pays the monthly salaries to the project staff now in November.

===Budget===
The budget is quite large and except from the salary for the project staff contains several sub posts, like lump sum salary for students, travel reimbursement, equipment, website programming, conference costs etc. Prof. David Porter offered to design and create a EU and a CN website adhering to the respective policies.

===Personnel===
For the 5 Research Groups, the following heads were suggested:

#Regulation (Comparison) Liu Bai
#Experiences (Comparison) Aline
#Effectiveness of digital tools: David Porter, Ole Döring, Yang Zhiming

Explanation: (How to achieve learning outcomes of teaching in presence also with online or technology-enhanced teaching? Quality measurement.)
#Learning Spaces (Comparison): Jiang Lihua
#ChatGPT/PostEdit (Comparison C-EU): Martin Woesler

===Salary for Project Personnel and Project Members===
There is no monthly salary foreseen in the budget for all participants. But everybody who invests time in the project should be reimbursed. Since the publication of papers is the most important in the project, the project offers to reimburse all Professors and PhD candidates, who publish a paper to be reimbursed for 50 hours (each SCI, SSCI or A&HCI impact paper, corresponds to 1000 Euros for professors and 500 Euros for students), 25 hours (each CSSCI impact paper, corresponds to 500 Euros for professors and 250 Euros for students). Non PhD-Students (but Bachelor- or Master students) who participate, e.g. in the many time consuming tasks like literature review, surveys, field experiments, will be reimbursed with a lump sum per month and will be informed about the expected number of hours they are required to work.

===Credits and Acknowledgments===
Hunan Normal University needs to be mentioned as the affiliated university of both, the 1st and 2nd author. Also, the grant acknowledgement and disclaimer need to be printed with the paper, e.g. as a footnote or endnote. All posters, websites etc. need to display the EU Erasmus + co-funding logo.

===Things to do===
#Prof. Jiang: Please invite Prof. Liu Bai and Prof. Yang Zhiming.
#Prof. Jiang: Dean Situ and the Accounting office may contact you to reconfirm that the first money can be paid from the grant amount received.
#Ole: Please invite Prof. Aline Tedeschi
#Everybody: Please start to read the newest research papers on the topic. The library offers and EBSCO access. Ole can instruct student groups to perform different Systematic Literature Reviews. Languages should be at least Chinese and English. Some research questions should be developed through these literature reviews. Please keep in touch in the WeChat group and exchange your findings.

===Things to do for the project staff===
#Finalize report of old project (this part of the work is NOT paid by the new project) both on the EU platform as well as on the website http://jmchair.eu.
#Organize setting up a Website
#Get the frequent payments running with the accounting office in coordination with the College leadership.
#Conduct systematic literature reviews, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.
#Set up virtual working space on wiki and invite everybody to join. Publish there all findings.
#Invite everybody to the next meeting next Friday 10 am and collect points for the agenda from the participants.

P.S.: After the meeting, Prof. Jiang invited Prof. Woesler to join the current session of her Colloquium into room 410 (13:00-14:15). There he introduced the project again and offered the PhD candidates to join the project, preferrably assisting the head of research group 4, Prof. Jiang Lihua. PhD candidates are encouraged to join because they can make double use of their research for the project/publications and their thesis. Also, the participation in the project will be certified and can be used in the curriculum vitae for job applications.

===Budget and Salary===
For student volunteers the budget provides a total of 4,000 Yuan per month over the range of 3 years. Since there is a higher workload before and during conferences, we will have to be able to assign both salaries (e.g. for Cai Cixiu) and short-term contract salaries (e.g. for conferences). The project staff receives regular payments. The request for first payments has been submitted.

===Things to do===
#Sari: Please conduct a MikeCRM survey. Print the research questionnaire by Prof. Doering, and conduct the survey with the students who participated in the painting event. (When conducting the survey, the respondents’ initials with birth date (like WJG1001) can be used to code them, so that the privacy of respondents can be protected and we can compare and analyze developments.)
#Phd students: Please analyze the survey results of the last EU project, and upload the parts of the final report to the EU website (compare the answers of Prof. Woesler’s with the students’ answer and get the percentage both at the beginning and the end of the semester. If there is a progress, this would be a good result for the report.) Also copy documentation to website jmchair.eu.
#Prof. Porter: Thank you for submitting the first samples for a website. They are under review.
#Everybody: Start reading. Prepare systematic literature reviews on the project topic, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.

===Report by Martin Woesler on Grants for going to a French university as a visiting professor, chair professors===
For now, I recommend to already check out the grants to prepare a good application. Regarding the chair professor or visiting scholar programs for foreign professors in France, there are the following mostly financed by the EU, sometimes together with the French Ministry of Science (I have indicated all weblinks):

1. Chair Program with Universities and Grand Ecoles

In addition to receiving visiting professors or researchers, many French universities and Grandes Ecoles have chair programmes to welcome researchers from around the world. These programmes are usually designed for specific scientific problems and last for a limited time. The Collège de France in particular has developed a programme of excellence in which many chairs are reserved for foreign researchers or professors. www.college-de-france.fr.

2. Chair Programs with Research Establishments

Further, there are corporate chairs that enable foreign researchers to work with a company and research establishment for up to 2 years. This programme is financed by the French National Research Agency.

Everybody please prepare a 1 minute input what you found out so far from the literature, about experts we can invite and what you want to conduct research on.

===Input by David Porter===
Pardon any typos. As mentioned last time I would recommend we invite Prof. Luis Cordeiro-Rodrigues from Hunan University as he has experience with AI and ethics and is ‘right next door’ so to speak. I am happy to reach out to him but I think it would be good to have a formal CFP or fixed plan so that I can explain exactly what we would be invited for and when.

If invited speakers don’t have to be university-affiliated academics I would recommend Matt Sheehan (matt.sheehan@ceip.org) who is a fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a journal and involved with various think-tanks relating to global technology (including China - he is supposed to be fluent in Chinese). Zhu Junhua (junzhu@utu.fi https://www.utu.fi/en/people/junhua-zhu ) is a doctoral student at University of Turku, and so still an early career scholar but is doing work on AI governance and ethics who might be someone who can bridge the Europe-China divide. We all come across a lot of names, so it might be good to have a more settled idea of what our conference might focus on more narrowly?

I want to focus on AI and university teaching with a comparative focus on Europe and China. Even in the past few years there are thousands of relevant articles but I will focus on a few more specific and nuanced research goals in the next couple months. It will likely relate to the adoption of AI in educational institutions in both regions during and post-COVID, impact of AI on student engagement, and overall learning outcomes but I want to tie into ethical considerations. Can put this crudely:
1) How extensively is AI tech currently integrated into university teaching in Europe and China?
2) How do educators perceive and navigate the associated challenges with AI and their teaching practices? (ethics here).
3) What is the impact of AI on outcomes: academic performance, yes, but also student engagement and real learning outcomes (not just bullshit test scores) in European and Chinese universities?
4) What about institutional, cultural or contextual differences that shape the adoption and impact of AI in university teaching between Europe and China?

I am still working on Literature Review and narrowing down what lit to review since comprehensiveness is impossible/obsolete the day after it is done. I want to work this into something of a comparative analysis between Europe and China in terms of AI adoption and its impact on university teaching (not exactly that but something like that). Before next semester I want to have a tangible plan for some surveys to gather qualitative and quantitative data. I have a timeline to do the preliminary work by March and serious development for something that can be submitted for publication next Fall (optimistically October, absit omen).

Participatory research on using virtual reality to teach ocean acidification: a study in the marine education communityENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION RESEARCHFauville, G., Queiroz, A. M., Hambrick, L., Brown, B. A., Bailenson, J. N.2020
Abstract
Ocean Acidification (OA) is an emerging environmental issue that is still largely unknown to the public and in its infancy in terms of educational strategies. OA teaching material should address the specific challenges that educators face while building learners’ understanding of OA. The objective of this study is two-fold. First, we identified the barriers to teaching OA as experienced by formal and informal marine educators. Second, we provided educators an opportunity to experience virtual reality and discuss how it could serve as a tool for face-to-face and distance learning to address the identified challenges. The findings shed light on four overarching themes of challenges to teaching OA: lack of science literacy, unprepared education field, complex and invisible nature of OA and lack of personal connection with the ocean. Marine educators consider empowerment, perspective-taking and visualization as the three principal avenues through which virtual reality may contribute to mitigating the challenges to teaching OA.

Designing for Relationality in Virtual Reality: Context-Specific Learning as a Primer for Content Relevancy JOURNAL OF SCIENCE EDUCATION AND TECHNOLOGYBoda, P. A., Brown, B.2020
Abstract
Science achievement gaps exhibit racial disparities starting in primary grades and have been shown to persist through middle and high school. In turn, increasing positive attitudes toward science have been shown as one factor that affects academic achievement and motivation among K-12 students. Exploring novel ways that technology can influence diverse students’ attitudes toward science, and the design elements pertinent therein, is thus one prominent goal toward achieving science education for all. Leveraging the immersive nature of Virtual Reality 360 videos, we present a design-based research iteration testing how a novel technology-enhanced learning experience influenced close to 400 urban elementary students’ attitudes toward science. Using a two-way MANCOVA analysis, the data support that our design iteration emphasizing context-specific learningcan prime students that do not see science as relevant to them to change these attitudes in significantly positive ways. Implications are discussed around relationality, technology use in urban schools, and local contexts as learning resources.

The impact of artificial intelligence on learner–instructor interaction in online learning
K Seo, J Tang, I Roll, S Fels, D Yoon
International journal of educational technology in higher education 18 (1), 1-23

Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) systems offer effective support for online learning and teaching, including personalizing learning for students, automating instructors’ routine tasks, and powering adaptive assessments. However, while the opportunities for AI are promising, the impact of AI systems on the culture of, norms in, and expectations about interactions between students and instructors are still elusive. In online learning, learner–instructor interaction (inter alia, communication, support, and presence) has a profound impact on students’ satisfaction and learning outcomes. Thus, identifying how students and instructors perceive the impact of AI systems on their interaction is important to identify any gaps, challenges, or barriers preventing AI systems from achieving their intended potential and risking the safety of these interactions. To address this need for forward-looking decisions, we used Speed Dating with storyboards to analyze the authentic voices of 12 students and 11 instructors on diverse use cases of possible AI systems in online learning. Findings show that participants envision adopting AI systems in online learning can enable personalized learner–instructor interaction at scale but at the risk of violating social boundaries. Although AI systems have been positively recognized for improving the quantity and quality of communication, for providing just-in-time, personalized support for large-scale settings, and for improving the feeling of connection, there were concerns about responsibility, agency, and surveillance issues. These findings have implications for the design of AI systems to ensure explainability, human-in-the-loop, and careful data collection and presentation. Overall, contributions of this study include the design of AI system storyboards which are technically feasible and positively support learner–instructor interaction, capturing students’ and instructors’ concerns of AI systems through Speed Dating, and suggesting practical implications for maximizing the positive impact of AI systems while minimizing the negative ones

Personalized Education in the AI Era: What to Expect Next?
Setareh Maghsudi, Andrew Lan, Jie Xu, Mihaela van der Schaar

https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2101.10074

Abstract

The objective of personalized learning is to design an effective knowledge acquisition track that matches the learner's strengths and bypasses her weaknesses to ultimately meet her desired goal. This concept emerged several years ago and is being adopted by a rapidly-growing number of educational institutions around the globe. In recent years, the boost of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), together with the advances in big data analysis, has unfolded novel perspectives to enhance personalized education in numerous dimensions. By taking advantage of AI/ML methods, the educational platform precisely acquires the student's characteristics. This is done, in part, by observing the past experiences as well as analyzing the available big data through exploring the learners' features and similarities. It can, for example, recommend the most appropriate content among numerous accessible ones, advise a well-designed long-term curriculum, connect appropriate learners by suggestion, accurate performance evaluation, and the like. Still, several aspects of AI-based personalized education remain unexplored. These include, among others, compensating for the adverse effects of the absence of peers, creating and maintaining motivations for learning, increasing diversity, removing the biases induced by the data and algorithms, and the like. In this paper, while providing a brief review of state-of-the-art research, we investigate the challenges of AI/ML-based personalized education and discuss potential solutions.

Our final report for the last project (2020-2023) has been submitted to the EU.
===Report on deliverable 1.1 „Website“ due December 2024===
===Input by Sari===
For the ai education prevalence, but that ‘s only in the cities and small towns. It give impression to itself in regional and rural inequalities. It is obviously reflected in the lack of educational resources in the areas below the county level, the low investment in education, and the low level of system construction. The quality and level of education in poor areas is relatively poor, leaving children vulnerable to disparities. Although in the cities,there is not every student has access to this technology. Only in parts of the school and rich families. To solve these problems, the cooperation of the government and the education sector, as well as the charity sector, is needed. The rich need not only to benefit from it but also to play an important role in it rather than contributing to it.

=PREPARATION OF WACS 8 2024 in Poznan/Athens/Changsha=

Ideas to professionalize our annual conference and to win more people to participate
#we only recommend a conference hotel with a conference discount, but the participants book directly with the hotel. This helps us to lower the conference fees to maybe 190€. Also, we only accept international bank payment directly to the association‘s account.
#We should send a flyer to us universities in order to get some PhD candidates, who can present part of their Thesis. And of course scholars as a main target group.
#Last time we also improved: double blind peer review,
# issuing travel stipends,
#awards in different categories,
#chairs and discussants for all panels,
#hybrid format.

With budget cut over the years, except for the few very well-endowed private univs, in the US, most professors only have 1 trip paid. They will choose the most relevant and established one or two. Graduate students basically pay for themselves, so they only go to AAS and/or AAS Regional conferences.

With zoom, you have more flexibility.

Dan's perspectives are from those in linguistics, a much smaller group than the scope WACS advertises.

1. As a very young asso., even with high level and strong backing, you cannot compete with the established ones.

2. Your initial vision seemed to be a platform to bring in prc sinologists who don't work with the Eng lang.

3. But you also include Eng lang papers.

4. The last few years show that W European & N Am scholars are not attracted to the conference.

A) Some feedback seems to be this is a crazy group of people, a nicer way of saying they are unprofessional and disorganised.

B) The dates may be a part of it but less critical than the messiness.

5) So two issues:

A) the volume and national variety of participants; and

B) the asso's administration of the conferences.

6) Possible remedies:

A) you need a systematic way of proactively reaching out to universities and colleges all over the world, by sending the departments information about the coming year's conference & links, etc.

You have to do this every year. Your conference's scope covers culture, history, ling., lit, phil, pol sci, etc., so to each of these departments, a notice could be sent.

You can do so with a master list by approaching a certain number in each continent the first year, then adding a few more for that country the next year, and so on.

You can even target specific regions/ continents in different years. You are in Eastern Europe, it's a good time to get them to participate. Maybe alongside, this year, it is SE Asia. (Next year, it could be S. Am & Australia as specific targets.)

B) The asso's org: herein lies the foundation of the problem. Until you look hard into it and take serious steps to overhaul it, putting in place functional committees with members who put in time and energy to administer and operate the asso., hence the conference as well, even if (A) is successful one year, it will evaporate in a handful of years.

7) In short, it is necessary to prioritise the structural/ organisational reform in administration & operation, before the change of dates.

8) Since changing the dates in a big way may not bring in many more new participants, you may want to hold it off.

A) You may want to have someone to do a quick research to see when, e.g. Asia & SE Asia is most unlikely to attend a conf, then when in S Am, etc., and the reasons. You get an overview, then you decide.

=We need to keep reminding=
*Lihua Jiang helps to solve the following problems: JM grant (the first amount has to be paid to the participating teachers), Seed grant (will reimburse flight costs and student assistants' salaries), admission of international student Markus Mueller to PhD program, admission of Olha Woesler to BA program to collect more certificates for teaching at FSC
=Successfully completed tasks=
*We have submitted the [[Interview by Wan Shuyuan 2022]], it got more than 1 million readers and was republished on several platforms including the website of the Chinese Embassy in Germany
*The JM budget of 40.000 Euros was moved from "Research" to "Education" 教务处 and paid to the participating teachers. Now we need to provide evidence for more teachings so that the remaining 10.000 Euros and 16.667 Euros matching funds from the university can be spent and 10,000 Euros will be reimbursed upon delivery of the report. Contact person: WeChat ID chiryhuo 霍丽 Lei Li，传神湖南高校的联系人 (Aim: Get the funds assigned to Martin Woesler, then paid to the participating teachers)

=Staff tasks=
==Martin Woesler==
*Send everyone a sample of the journal and the vetting (review) of the Chinese essays.
*Prepare 2 MOOC contents and produce films
==Duan Yuanyuan==
'''Funds Management'''
*Submit a new Seed Grant 启动资金 to Administration: So in the new budget, we should have maybe 55.000 Yuan travel and (quarantine) hotel cost, 10.000 Yuan office 309 和 415 设备 (比如冰箱、饮水机), 30.000 Yuan salary for assistants, 5.000 Yuan budget for books and decoration (statues, paintings) we buy for the two walls and bookshelfs in both offices. If it is not possible to buy fridge etc. from it, we can plan this money differently. I am afraid we will spend all the money totally soon. Therefore, I will have to apply for a second budget maybe for 2023. I don't know if they grant me a second budget.
*The EU Grant requires to spend 67.000 Euros first, submit spending receipts and then apply for reimbursement of remaining 10.000 Euros. This means that the university has to release the 40.000 Euros now, is ready to spend the remaining 27.000 Euros then and get reimbursed only 10.000 Euros later.
*Read into the technical requirements of managing EU funds, this includes registering on web sites, filling out forms, submitting information and requesting fundings, controlling the funds arriving at the HUNNU account, forwarding it to the recipients at HUNNU, coordinating with financial department of HUNNU.

Type: Call for Papers

Location: Korea South

Subject Fields: Asian History / Studies, Chinese History / Studies, East Asian History / Studies, Japanese History / Studies, Korean History / Studies

CFP: The Journal of Northeast Asian History Vol. 19-1

Dear Colleagues,

The Northeast Asian History Foundation continues to expand its interaction with scholars specializing in Asian history and related fields outside East Asia. The Foundation is also strengthening its ties with leading institutions and scholars by encouraging interdisciplinary and comparative approaches to research on geopolitical, cultural, educational, and other issues in East Asia.

The Foundation publishes the Journal of Northeast Asian History (JNAH), a peer-reviewed semi-annual English-language journal that focuses on history-based approaches to Asian politics, cultures, economy and other fields to shed light on the historical realities of the Asian World. The Journal's geographical scope extends to other parts of the world which have significant relevancy to Asian history, thus charting globalism and localism from global perspectives.

In particular, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Korea-China Relations and Historical Configuration in Northeast Asia and (2) US-China Relations and Historical Issues in East Asia, both of which will help explore further how inter-state and intra-state matters were and are liked together to the historical development of continental East Asia and how the confluence of these external and internal factors have been making vital impact on the various mode of regional interaction in modern East Asia and beyond.

The Journal of Northeast Asian History calls for the submission of outstanding and unpublished papers for review and possible publication in Winter 2022. We invite colleagues to consider the Journal when seeking to publish ongoing research since we believe this can be an impetus for further scholarly collaboration in the future. For full consideration, please submit manuscripts by July 31, 2022 for Winter Issue.

Please contact us at jnah@nahf.or.kr or jnah.nahf@gmail.com should you have any questions regarding the journal, its submission process or subscription to it.
Thank you in advance for your attention and contributions.

'''CFP:''' “David versus Goliath - Souvereignty issues of small countries and regions neighboring large countries” European Journal of Chinese Studies 4 (2021)

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — the most consequential military conflict Europe has witnessed since the Second World War — has riveted the attention of the world. Almost inevitably people look to draw analogies — both historical and contemporary ones. One popular contemporary analogy is between Russia’s actions vis-à-vis Ukraine and mainland China’s approach to Taiwan.

In this issue, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Russia-Ukraine and (2) Mainland China-Taiwan. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine the two comparisons. We aim to bring together papers that (1) critically examine the differentiated situation of the two large authoriatarian nations; (2) discuss the ways in which two large authoritarian nations exert control on smaller neighbors; and (3) comparison with the approach of non-authoritarian large nations towards smaller neighbors; (4) consequences for world order, stability, peace and economical development.

Communication is among the best ways to resolve differences and strengthen cooperation. At an age when "anti-globalization" continues to characterize global situation; conservatism and ultra-nationalism are on the rise; and regional conflicts become frequent, cross-cultural communication seems to be particularly meaningful.

In this issue, we will welcome topics that concern (1) Chinese literature and (2) Western literature. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature in general or in particular works. We will welcome papers that (1) critically examine the different culture and cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature; (2) discusses the problems encountered in such cross-cutural communication; (3) what such communications contribute to Chinese or Western culture.

Minutes of the Kick-off meeting “EU JM Centre of Excellence for Digitalization of University Teaching” Nov 16, 2023, 10:00-11:30 am, HNU Tenglong Building, room 309
===Protocol: Martin Woesler===
===Participants===
Prof. Woesler, Prof. Jiang Lihua, Prof. Porter, PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Liu Rong, Zhouli Ziruo, Volunteer "Sari" Cai Xixiu.

===Next Meeting===
Friday Nov 24, 2023, 10:00 am room 309. For those who can only attend online: Zoom: http://bit.ly/ZOOMCOURSE

===Your contact people: The project staff===
Project Leader: Prof. Woesler, Project Assistants: PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Zhouli Ziruo, Liu Rong. The staff takes on the double task of conducting research (especially systematic literature reviews, surveys, field experiments testing different learning spaces or digital tools) and doing the administration (keeping the overview, watching the timeline, reports on the EU platform, reminding of deadlines, organizing meetings, inviting project members and external experts to joint papers, conferences, anthologies etc.).

===Salaries===
The project started in September and the project staff has already invested some work. So far, the payment of the salaries was not yet agreed to by the accounting office, they wanted more information. Still, there is a lot of work which needs to be done, including website and reports, until December. Therefore, it is important, that the accounting office already pays the monthly salaries to the project staff now in November.

===Budget===
The budget is quite large and except from the salary for the project staff contains several sub posts, like lump sum salary for students, travel reimbursement, equipment, website programming, conference costs etc. Prof. David Porter offered to design and create a EU and a CN website adhering to the respective policies.

===Personnel===
For the 5 Research Groups, the following heads were suggested:

#Regulation (Comparison) Liu Bai
#Experiences (Comparison) Aline
#Effectiveness of digital tools: David Porter, Ole Döring, Yang Zhiming

Explanation: (How to achieve learning outcomes of teaching in presence also with online or technology-enhanced teaching? Quality measurement.)
#Learning Spaces (Comparison): Jiang Lihua
#ChatGPT/PostEdit (Comparison C-EU): Martin Woesler

===Salary for Project Personnel and Project Members===
There is no monthly salary foreseen in the budget for all participants. But everybody who invests time in the project should be reimbursed. Since the publication of papers is the most important in the project, the project offers to reimburse all Professors and PhD candidates, who publish a paper to be reimbursed for 50 hours (each SCI, SSCI or A&HCI impact paper, corresponds to 1000 Euros for professors and 500 Euros for students), 25 hours (each CSSCI impact paper, corresponds to 500 Euros for professors and 250 Euros for students). Non PhD-Students (but Bachelor- or Master students) who participate, e.g. in the many time consuming tasks like literature review, surveys, field experiments, will be reimbursed with a lump sum per month and will be informed about the expected number of hours they are required to work.

===Credits and Acknowledgments===
Hunan Normal University needs to be mentioned as the affiliated university of both, the 1st and 2nd author. Also, the grant acknowledgement and disclaimer need to be printed with the paper, e.g. as a footnote or endnote. All posters, websites etc. need to display the EU Erasmus + co-funding logo.

===Things to do===
#Prof. Jiang: Please invite Prof. Liu Bai and Prof. Yang Zhiming.
#Prof. Jiang: Dean Situ and the Accounting office may contact you to reconfirm that the first money can be paid from the grant amount received.
#Ole: Please invite Prof. Aline Tedeschi
#Everybody: Please start to read the newest research papers on the topic. The library offers and EBSCO access. Ole can instruct student groups to perform different Systematic Literature Reviews. Languages should be at least Chinese and English. Some research questions should be developed through these literature reviews. Please keep in touch in the WeChat group and exchange your findings.

===Things to do for the project staff===
#Finalize report of old project (this part of the work is NOT paid by the new project) both on the EU platform as well as on the website http://jmchair.eu.
#Organize setting up a Website
#Get the frequent payments running with the accounting office in coordination with the College leadership.
#Conduct systematic literature reviews, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.
#Set up virtual working space on wiki and invite everybody to join. Publish there all findings.
#Invite everybody to the next meeting next Friday 10 am and collect points for the agenda from the participants.

P.S.: After the meeting, Prof. Jiang invited Prof. Woesler to join the current session of her Colloquium into room 410 (13:00-14:15). There he introduced the project again and offered the PhD candidates to join the project, preferrably assisting the head of research group 4, Prof. Jiang Lihua. PhD candidates are encouraged to join because they can make double use of their research for the project/publications and their thesis. Also, the participation in the project will be certified and can be used in the curriculum vitae for job applications.

===Next Meeting===
Scheduled for Tuesday Nov 29, 16:00 and 18:15 Chinese time room 309. For those who can only attend online: Tencent Meeting:https://meeting.tencent.com/dm/bCQdfgGlezZ1

===Budget and Salary===
For student volunteers the budget provides a total of 4,000 Yuan per month over the range of 3 years. Since there is a higher workload before and during conferences, we will have to be able to assign both salaries (e.g. for Cai Cixiu) and short-term contract salaries (e.g. for conferences). The project staff receives regular payments. The request for first payments has been submitted.

===Things to do===
#Sari: Please conduct a MikeCRM survey. Print the research questionnaire by Prof. Doering, and conduct the survey with the students who participated in the painting event. (When conducting the survey, the respondents’ initials with birth date (like WJG1001) can be used to code them, so that the privacy of respondents can be protected and we can compare and analyze developments.)
#Phd students: Please analyze the survey results of the last EU project, and upload the parts of the final report to the EU website (compare the answers of Prof. Woesler’s with the students’ answer and get the percentage both at the beginning and the end of the semester. If there is a progress, this would be a good result for the report.) Also copy documentation to website jmchair.eu.
#Prof. Porter: Thank you for submitting the first samples for a website. They are under review.
#Everybody: Start reading. Prepare systematic literature reviews on the project topic, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.

===Report by Martin Woesler on Grants for going to a French university as a visiting professor, chair professors===
For now, I recommend to already check out the grants to prepare a good application. Regarding the chair professor or visiting scholar programs for foreign professors in France, there are the following mostly financed by the EU, sometimes together with the French Ministry of Science (I have indicated all weblinks):

1. Chair Program with Universities and Grand Ecoles

In addition to receiving visiting professors or researchers, many French universities and Grandes Ecoles have chair programmes to welcome researchers from around the world. These programmes are usually designed for specific scientific problems and last for a limited time. The Collège de France in particular has developed a programme of excellence in which many chairs are reserved for foreign researchers or professors. www.college-de-france.fr.

2. Chair Programs with Research Establishments

Further, there are corporate chairs that enable foreign researchers to work with a company and research establishment for up to 2 years. This programme is financed by the French National Research Agency.

====Next Meeting: Jan 9, 2024====
==Meeting Jan 9, 2024 18:15 Chinese time (11:15 European time)==

We meet both in person in office #309 and online on Zoom: https://zoom.us/j/5739416744?pwd=c3h5L0NnY0xCWjlEMWhuNTBMbE92UT09

Everybody please prepare a 1 minute input what you found out so far from the literature, about experts we can invite and what you want to conduct research on.

===Input by David Porter===
Pardon any typos. As mentioned last time I would recommend we invite Prof. Luis Cordeiro-Rodrigues from Hunan University as he has experience with AI and ethics and is ‘right next door’ so to speak. I am happy to reach out to him but I think it would be good to have a formal CFP or fixed plan so that I can explain exactly what we would be invited for and when.

If invited speakers don’t have to be university-affiliated academics I would recommend Matt Sheehan (matt.sheehan@ceip.org) who is a fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a journal and involved with various think-tanks relating to global technology (including China - he is supposed to be fluent in Chinese). Zhu Junhua (junzhu@utu.fi https://www.utu.fi/en/people/junhua-zhu ) is a doctoral student at University of Turku, and so still an early career scholar but is doing work on AI governance and ethics who might be someone who can bridge the Europe-China divide. We all come across a lot of names, so it might be good to have a more settled idea of what our conference might focus on more narrowly?

I want to focus on AI and university teaching with a comparative focus on Europe and China. Even in the past few years there are thousands of relevant articles but I will focus on a few more specific and nuanced research goals in the next couple months. It will likely relate to the adoption of AI in educational institutions in both regions during and post-COVID, impact of AI on student engagement, and overall learning outcomes but I want to tie into ethical considerations. Can put this crudely:
1) How extensively is AI tech currently integrated into university teaching in Europe and China?
2) How do educators perceive and navigate the associated challenges with AI and their teaching practices? (ethics here).
3) What is the impact of AI on outcomes: academic performance, yes, but also student engagement and real learning outcomes (not just bullshit test scores) in European and Chinese universities?
4) What about institutional, cultural or contextual differences that shape the adoption and impact of AI in university teaching between Europe and China?

I am still working on Literature Review and narrowing down what lit to review since comprehensiveness is impossible/obsolete the day after it is done. I want to work this into something of a comparative analysis between Europe and China in terms of AI adoption and its impact on university teaching (not exactly that but something like that). Before next semester I want to have a tangible plan for some surveys to gather qualitative and quantitative data. I have a timeline to do the preliminary work by March and serious development for something that can be submitted for publication next Fall (optimistically October, absit omen).

====List of experts to invite for lecture series====
====Recommendations by David Porter====
*Prof. Luis Cordeiro-Rodrigues, Hunan University, has experience with AI and ethics and is ‘right next door’ so to speak. I am happy to reach out to him but I think it would be good to have a formal CFP or fixed plan so that I can explain exactly what we would be invited for and when.

=====Recommendations by Cai=====
*Prof. Hu Xiaoyong, Huanan Daxue (South China University) more than 100 articles on Application of Artificial Intelligent Education, Teaching from the perspective of AI, teacher intelligent education, hosted research projects

===Report on Final Report last JM project===
Our final report for the last project (2020-2023) has been submitted to the EU.
===Report on deliverable 1.1 „Website“ due December 2024===
===Input by Sari===
For the ai education prevalence, but that ‘s only in the cities and small towns. It give impression to itself in regional and rural inequalities. It is obviously reflected in the lack of educational resources in the areas below the county level, the low investment in education, and the low level of system construction. The quality and level of education in poor areas is relatively poor, leaving children vulnerable to disparities. Although in the cities,there is not every student has access to this technology. Only in parts of the school and rich families. To solve these problems, the cooperation of the government and the education sector, as well as the charity sector, is needed. The rich need not only to benefit from it but also to play an important role in it rather than contributing to it.
====Salary Issue====

=PREPARATION OF WACS 8 2024 in Poznan/Athens/Changsha=

Ideas to professionalize our annual conference and to win more people to participate
#we only recommend a conference hotel with a conference discount, but the participants book directly with the hotel. This helps us to lower the conference fees to maybe 190€. Also, we only accept international bank payment directly to the association‘s account.
#We should send a flyer to us universities in order to get some PhD candidates, who can present part of their Thesis. And of course scholars as a main target group.
#Last time we also improved: double blind peer review,
# issuing travel stipends,
#awards in different categories,
#chairs and discussants for all panels,
#hybrid format.

With budget cut over the years, except for the few very well-endowed private univs, in the US, most professors only have 1 trip paid. They will choose the most relevant and established one or two. Graduate students basically pay for themselves, so they only go to AAS and/or AAS Regional conferences.

With zoom, you have more flexibility.

Dan's perspectives are from those in linguistics, a much smaller group than the scope WACS advertises.

1. As a very young asso., even with high level and strong backing, you cannot compete with the established ones.

2. Your initial vision seemed to be a platform to bring in prc sinologists who don't work with the Eng lang.

3. But you also include Eng lang papers.

4. The last few years show that W European & N Am scholars are not attracted to the conference.

A) Some feedback seems to be this is a crazy group of people, a nicer way of saying they are unprofessional and disorganised.

B) The dates may be a part of it but less critical than the messiness.

5) So two issues:

A) the volume and national variety of participants; and

B) the asso's administration of the conferences.

6) Possible remedies:

A) you need a systematic way of proactively reaching out to universities and colleges all over the world, by sending the departments information about the coming year's conference & links, etc.

You have to do this every year. Your conference's scope covers culture, history, ling., lit, phil, pol sci, etc., so to each of these departments, a notice could be sent.

You can do so with a master list by approaching a certain number in each continent the first year, then adding a few more for that country the next year, and so on.

You can even target specific regions/ continents in different years. You are in Eastern Europe, it's a good time to get them to participate. Maybe alongside, this year, it is SE Asia. (Next year, it could be S. Am & Australia as specific targets.)

B) The asso's org: herein lies the foundation of the problem. Until you look hard into it and take serious steps to overhaul it, putting in place functional committees with members who put in time and energy to administer and operate the asso., hence the conference as well, even if (A) is successful one year, it will evaporate in a handful of years.

7) In short, it is necessary to prioritise the structural/ organisational reform in administration & operation, before the change of dates.

8) Since changing the dates in a big way may not bring in many more new participants, you may want to hold it off.

A) You may want to have someone to do a quick research to see when, e.g. Asia & SE Asia is most unlikely to attend a conf, then when in S Am, etc., and the reasons. You get an overview, then you decide.

=Successfully completed tasks=
*We have submitted the [[Interview by Wan Shuyuan 2022]], it got more than 1 million readers and was republished on several platforms including the website of the Chinese Embassy in Germany
*The JM budget of 40.000 Euros was moved from "Research" to "Education" 教务处 and paid to the participating teachers. Now we need to provide evidence for more teachings so that the remaining 10.000 Euros and 16.667 Euros matching funds from the university can be spent and 10,000 Euros will be reimbursed upon delivery of the report.

==Duan Yuanyuan==
'''Funds Management'''
*Submit a new Seed Grant 启动资金 to Administration: So in the new budget, we should have maybe 55.000 Yuan travel and (quarantine) hotel cost, 10.000 Yuan office 309 和 415 设备 (比如冰箱、饮水机), 30.000 Yuan salary for assistants, 5.000 Yuan budget for books and decoration (statues, paintings) we buy for the two walls and bookshelfs in both offices. If it is not possible to buy fridge etc. from it, we can plan this money differently. I am afraid we will spend all the money totally soon. Therefore, I will have to apply for a second budget maybe for 2023. I don't know if they grant me a second budget.
*The EU Grant requires to spend 67.000 Euros first, submit spending receipts and then apply for reimbursement of remaining 10.000 Euros. This means that the university has to release the 40.000 Euros now, is ready to spend the remaining 27.000 Euros then and get reimbursed only 10.000 Euros later.
*Read into the technical requirements of managing EU funds, this includes registering on web sites, filling out forms, submitting information and requesting fundings, controlling the funds arriving at the HUNNU account, forwarding it to the recipients at HUNNU, coordinating with financial department of HUNNU.

CFP: The Journal of Northeast Asian History Vol. 19-1

Dear Colleagues,

The Northeast Asian History Foundation continues to expand its interaction with scholars specializing in Asian history and related fields outside East Asia. The Foundation is also strengthening its ties with leading institutions and scholars by encouraging interdisciplinary and comparative approaches to research on geopolitical, cultural, educational, and other issues in East Asia.

The Foundation publishes the Journal of Northeast Asian History (JNAH), a peer-reviewed semi-annual English-language journal that focuses on history-based approaches to Asian politics, cultures, economy and other fields to shed light on the historical realities of the Asian World. The Journal's geographical scope extends to other parts of the world which have significant relevancy to Asian history, thus charting globalism and localism from global perspectives.

In particular, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Korea-China Relations and Historical Configuration in Northeast Asia and (2) US-China Relations and Historical Issues in East Asia, both of which will help explore further how inter-state and intra-state matters were and are liked together to the historical development of continental East Asia and how the confluence of these external and internal factors have been making vital impact on the various mode of regional interaction in modern East Asia and beyond.

The Journal of Northeast Asian History calls for the submission of outstanding and unpublished papers for review and possible publication in Winter 2022. We invite colleagues to consider the Journal when seeking to publish ongoing research since we believe this can be an impetus for further scholarly collaboration in the future. For full consideration, please submit manuscripts by July 31, 2022 for Winter Issue.

Please contact us at jnah@nahf.or.kr or jnah.nahf@gmail.com should you have any questions regarding the journal, its submission process or subscription to it.
Thank you in advance for your attention and contributions.

'''CFP:''' “David versus Goliath - Souvereignty issues of small countries and regions neighboring large countries” European Journal of Chinese Studies 4 (2021)

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — the most consequential military conflict Europe has witnessed since the Second World War — has riveted the attention of the world. Almost inevitably people look to draw analogies — both historical and contemporary ones. One popular contemporary analogy is between Russia’s actions vis-à-vis Ukraine and mainland China’s approach to Taiwan.

In this issue, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Russia-Ukraine and (2) Mainland China-Taiwan. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine the two comparisons. We aim to bring together papers that (1) critically examine the differentiated situation of the two large authoriatarian nations; (2) discuss the ways in which two large authoritarian nations exert control on smaller neighbors; and (3) comparison with the approach of non-authoritarian large nations towards smaller neighbors; (4) consequences for world order, stability, peace and economical development.

Communication is among the best ways to resolve differences and strengthen cooperation. At an age when "anti-globalization" continues to characterize global situation; conservatism and ultra-nationalism are on the rise; and regional conflicts become frequent, cross-cultural communication seems to be particularly meaningful.

In this issue, we will welcome topics that concern (1) Chinese literature and (2) Western literature. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature in general or in particular works. We will welcome papers that (1) critically examine the different culture and cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature; (2) discusses the problems encountered in such cross-cutural communication; (3) what such communications contribute to Chinese or Western culture.

Minutes of the Kick-off meeting “EU JM Centre of Excellence for Digitalization of University Teaching” Nov 16, 2023, 10:00-11:30 am, HNU Tenglong Building, room 309
===Protocol: Martin Woesler===
===Participants===
Prof. Woesler, Prof. Jiang Lihua, Prof. Porter, PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Liu Rong, Zhouli Ziruo, Volunteer "Sari" Cai Xixiu.

===Next Meeting===
Friday Nov 24, 2023, 10:00 am room 309. For those who can only attend online: Zoom: http://bit.ly/ZOOMCOURSE

===Your contact people: The project staff===
Project Leader: Prof. Woesler, Project Assistants: PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Zhouli Ziruo, Liu Rong. The staff takes on the double task of conducting research (especially systematic literature reviews, surveys, field experiments testing different learning spaces or digital tools) and doing the administration (keeping the overview, watching the timeline, reports on the EU platform, reminding of deadlines, organizing meetings, inviting project members and external experts to joint papers, conferences, anthologies etc.).

===Salaries===
The project started in September and the project staff has already invested some work. So far, the payment of the salaries was not yet agreed to by the accounting office, they wanted more information. Still, there is a lot of work which needs to be done, including website and reports, until December. Therefore, it is important, that the accounting office already pays the monthly salaries to the project staff now in November.

===Budget===
The budget is quite large and except from the salary for the project staff contains several sub posts, like lump sum salary for students, travel reimbursement, equipment, website programming, conference costs etc. Prof. David Porter offered to design and create a EU and a CN website adhering to the respective policies.

===Personnel===
For the 5 Research Groups, the following heads were suggested:

#Regulation (Comparison) Liu Bai
#Experiences (Comparison) Aline
#Effectiveness of digital tools: David Porter, Ole Döring, Yang Zhiming

Explanation: (How to achieve learning outcomes of teaching in presence also with online or technology-enhanced teaching? Quality measurement.)
#Learning Spaces (Comparison): Jiang Lihua
#ChatGPT/PostEdit (Comparison C-EU): Martin Woesler

===Salary for Project Personnel and Project Members===
There is no monthly salary foreseen in the budget for all participants. But everybody who invests time in the project should be reimbursed. Since the publication of papers is the most important in the project, the project offers to reimburse all Professors and PhD candidates, who publish a paper to be reimbursed for 50 hours (each SCI, SSCI or A&HCI impact paper, corresponds to 1000 Euros for professors and 500 Euros for students), 25 hours (each CSSCI impact paper, corresponds to 500 Euros for professors and 250 Euros for students). Non PhD-Students (but Bachelor- or Master students) who participate, e.g. in the many time consuming tasks like literature review, surveys, field experiments, will be reimbursed with a lump sum per month and will be informed about the expected number of hours they are required to work.

===Credits and Acknowledgments===
Hunan Normal University needs to be mentioned as the affiliated university of both, the 1st and 2nd author. Also, the grant acknowledgement and disclaimer need to be printed with the paper, e.g. as a footnote or endnote. All posters, websites etc. need to display the EU Erasmus + co-funding logo.

===Things to do===
#Prof. Jiang: Please invite Prof. Liu Bai and Prof. Yang Zhiming.
#Prof. Jiang: Dean Situ and the Accounting office may contact you to reconfirm that the first money can be paid from the grant amount received.
#Ole: Please invite Prof. Aline Tedeschi
#Everybody: Please start to read the newest research papers on the topic. The library offers and EBSCO access. Ole can instruct student groups to perform different Systematic Literature Reviews. Languages should be at least Chinese and English. Some research questions should be developed through these literature reviews. Please keep in touch in the WeChat group and exchange your findings.

===Things to do for the project staff===
#Finalize report of old project (this part of the work is NOT paid by the new project) both on the EU platform as well as on the website http://jmchair.eu.
#Organize setting up a Website
#Get the frequent payments running with the accounting office in coordination with the College leadership.
#Conduct systematic literature reviews, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.
#Set up virtual working space on wiki and invite everybody to join. Publish there all findings.
#Invite everybody to the next meeting next Friday 10 am and collect points for the agenda from the participants.

P.S.: After the meeting, Prof. Jiang invited Prof. Woesler to join the current session of her Colloquium into room 410 (13:00-14:15). There he introduced the project again and offered the PhD candidates to join the project, preferrably assisting the head of research group 4, Prof. Jiang Lihua. PhD candidates are encouraged to join because they can make double use of their research for the project/publications and their thesis. Also, the participation in the project will be certified and can be used in the curriculum vitae for job applications.

===Budget and Salary===
For student volunteers the budget provides a total of 4,000 Yuan per month over the range of 3 years. Since there is a higher workload before and during conferences, we will have to be able to assign both salaries (e.g. for Cai Cixiu) and short-term contract salaries (e.g. for conferences). The project staff receives regular payments. The request for first payments has been submitted.

===Things to do===
#Sari: Please conduct a MikeCRM survey. Print the research questionnaire by Prof. Doering, and conduct the survey with the students who participated in the painting event. (When conducting the survey, the respondents’ initials with birth date (like WJG1001) can be used to code them, so that the privacy of respondents can be protected and we can compare and analyze developments.)
#Phd students: Please analyze the survey results of the last EU project, and upload the parts of the final report to the EU website (compare the answers of Prof. Woesler’s with the students’ answer and get the percentage both at the beginning and the end of the semester. If there is a progress, this would be a good result for the report.) Also copy documentation to website jmchair.eu.
#Prof. Porter: Thank you for submitting the first samples for a website. They are under review.
#Everybody: Start reading. Prepare systematic literature reviews on the project topic, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.

===Report by Martin Woesler on Grants for going to a French university as a visiting professor, chair professors===
For now, I recommend to already check out the grants to prepare a good application. Regarding the chair professor or visiting scholar programs for foreign professors in France, there are the following mostly financed by the EU, sometimes together with the French Ministry of Science (I have indicated all weblinks):

1. Chair Program with Universities and Grand Ecoles

In addition to receiving visiting professors or researchers, many French universities and Grandes Ecoles have chair programmes to welcome researchers from around the world. These programmes are usually designed for specific scientific problems and last for a limited time. The Collège de France in particular has developed a programme of excellence in which many chairs are reserved for foreign researchers or professors. www.college-de-france.fr.

2. Chair Programs with Research Establishments

Further, there are corporate chairs that enable foreign researchers to work with a company and research establishment for up to 2 years. This programme is financed by the French National Research Agency.

We meet both in person in office #309 and online on Zoom: https://zoom.us/j/5739416744?pwd=c3h5L0NnY0xCWjlEMWhuNTBMbE92UT09

Everybody please prepare a 1 minute input what you found out so far from the literature, about experts we can invite and what you want to conduct research on.

===Input by David Porter===
Pardon any typos. As mentioned last time I would recommend we invite Prof. Luis Cordeiro-Rodrigues from Hunan University as he has experience with AI and ethics and is ‘right next door’ so to speak. I am happy to reach out to him but I think it would be good to have a formal CFP or fixed plan so that I can explain exactly what we would be invited for and when.

If invited speakers don’t have to be university-affiliated academics I would recommend Matt Sheehan (matt.sheehan@ceip.org) who is a fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a journal and involved with various think-tanks relating to global technology (including China - he is supposed to be fluent in Chinese). Zhu Junhua (junzhu@utu.fi https://www.utu.fi/en/people/junhua-zhu ) is a doctoral student at University of Turku, and so still an early career scholar but is doing work on AI governance and ethics who might be someone who can bridge the Europe-China divide. We all come across a lot of names, so it might be good to have a more settled idea of what our conference might focus on more narrowly?

I want to focus on AI and university teaching with a comparative focus on Europe and China. Even in the past few years there are thousands of relevant articles but I will focus on a few more specific and nuanced research goals in the next couple months. It will likely relate to the adoption of AI in educational institutions in both regions during and post-COVID, impact of AI on student engagement, and overall learning outcomes but I want to tie into ethical considerations. Can put this crudely:
1) How extensively is AI tech currently integrated into university teaching in Europe and China?
2) How do educators perceive and navigate the associated challenges with AI and their teaching practices? (ethics here).
3) What is the impact of AI on outcomes: academic performance, yes, but also student engagement and real learning outcomes (not just bullshit test scores) in European and Chinese universities?
4) What about institutional, cultural or contextual differences that shape the adoption and impact of AI in university teaching between Europe and China?

I am still working on Literature Review and narrowing down what lit to review since comprehensiveness is impossible/obsolete the day after it is done. I want to work this into something of a comparative analysis between Europe and China in terms of AI adoption and its impact on university teaching (not exactly that but something like that). Before next semester I want to have a tangible plan for some surveys to gather qualitative and quantitative data. I have a timeline to do the preliminary work by March and serious development for something that can be submitted for publication next Fall (optimistically October, absit omen).

====List of experts to invite for lecture series====

Our final report for the last project (2020-2023) has been submitted to the EU.
===Report on deliverable 1.1 „Website“ due December 2024===
===Input by Sari===
For the ai education prevalence, but that ‘s only in the cities and small towns. It give impression to itself in regional and rural inequalities. It is obviously reflected in the lack of educational resources in the areas below the county level, the low investment in education, and the low level of system construction. The quality and level of education in poor areas is relatively poor, leaving children vulnerable to disparities. Although in the cities,there is not every student has access to this technology. Only in parts of the school and rich families. To solve these problems, the cooperation of the government and the education sector, as well as the charity sector, is needed. The rich need not only to benefit from it but also to play an important role in it rather than contributing to it.

=PREPARATION OF WACS 8 2024 in Poznan/Athens/Changsha=

Ideas to professionalize our annual conference and to win more people to participate
#we only recommend a conference hotel with a conference discount, but the participants book directly with the hotel. This helps us to lower the conference fees to maybe 190€. Also, we only accept international bank payment directly to the association‘s account.
#We should send a flyer to us universities in order to get some PhD candidates, who can present part of their Thesis. And of course scholars as a main target group.
#Last time we also improved: double blind peer review,
# issuing travel stipends,
#awards in different categories,
#chairs and discussants for all panels,
#hybrid format.

With budget cut over the years, except for the few very well-endowed private univs, in the US, most professors only have 1 trip paid. They will choose the most relevant and established one or two. Graduate students basically pay for themselves, so they only go to AAS and/or AAS Regional conferences.

With zoom, you have more flexibility.

Dan's perspectives are from those in linguistics, a much smaller group than the scope WACS advertises.

1. As a very young asso., even with high level and strong backing, you cannot compete with the established ones.

2. Your initial vision seemed to be a platform to bring in prc sinologists who don't work with the Eng lang.

3. But you also include Eng lang papers.

4. The last few years show that W European & N Am scholars are not attracted to the conference.

A) Some feedback seems to be this is a crazy group of people, a nicer way of saying they are unprofessional and disorganised.

B) The dates may be a part of it but less critical than the messiness.

5) So two issues:

A) the volume and national variety of participants; and

B) the asso's administration of the conferences.

6) Possible remedies:

A) you need a systematic way of proactively reaching out to universities and colleges all over the world, by sending the departments information about the coming year's conference & links, etc.

You have to do this every year. Your conference's scope covers culture, history, ling., lit, phil, pol sci, etc., so to each of these departments, a notice could be sent.

You can do so with a master list by approaching a certain number in each continent the first year, then adding a few more for that country the next year, and so on.

You can even target specific regions/ continents in different years. You are in Eastern Europe, it's a good time to get them to participate. Maybe alongside, this year, it is SE Asia. (Next year, it could be S. Am & Australia as specific targets.)

B) The asso's org: herein lies the foundation of the problem. Until you look hard into it and take serious steps to overhaul it, putting in place functional committees with members who put in time and energy to administer and operate the asso., hence the conference as well, even if (A) is successful one year, it will evaporate in a handful of years.

7) In short, it is necessary to prioritise the structural/ organisational reform in administration & operation, before the change of dates.

8) Since changing the dates in a big way may not bring in many more new participants, you may want to hold it off.

A) You may want to have someone to do a quick research to see when, e.g. Asia & SE Asia is most unlikely to attend a conf, then when in S Am, etc., and the reasons. You get an overview, then you decide.

*The JM budget of 40.000 Euros was moved from "Research" to "Education" 教务处 and paid to the participating teachers.

*Submit a new Seed Grant 启动资金 to Administration: So in the new budget, we should have maybe 55.000 Yuan travel and (quarantine) hotel cost, 10.000 Yuan office 309 和 415 设备 (比如冰箱、饮水机), 30.000 Yuan salary for assistants, 5.000 Yuan budget for books and decoration (statues, paintings) we buy for the two walls and bookshelfs in both offices. If it is not possible to buy fridge etc. from it, we can plan this money differently. I am afraid we will spend all the money totally soon. Therefore, I will have to apply for a second budget maybe for 2023. I don't know if they grant me a second budget.
*The EU Grant requires to spend 67.000 Euros first, submit spending receipts and then apply for reimbursement of remaining 10.000 Euros. This means that the university has to release the 40.000 Euros now, is ready to spend the remaining 27.000 Euros then and get reimbursed only 10.000 Euros later.
*Read into the technical requirements of managing EU funds, this includes registering on web sites, filling out forms, submitting information and requesting fundings, controlling the funds arriving at the HUNNU account, forwarding it to the recipients at HUNNU, coordinating with financial department of HUNNU.

Type: Call for Papers

Location: Korea South

Subject Fields: Asian History / Studies, Chinese History / Studies, East Asian History / Studies, Japanese History / Studies, Korean History / Studies

CFP: The Journal of Northeast Asian History Vol. 19-1

Dear Colleagues,

The Northeast Asian History Foundation continues to expand its interaction with scholars specializing in Asian history and related fields outside East Asia. The Foundation is also strengthening its ties with leading institutions and scholars by encouraging interdisciplinary and comparative approaches to research on geopolitical, cultural, educational, and other issues in East Asia.

The Foundation publishes the Journal of Northeast Asian History (JNAH), a peer-reviewed semi-annual English-language journal that focuses on history-based approaches to Asian politics, cultures, economy and other fields to shed light on the historical realities of the Asian World. The Journal's geographical scope extends to other parts of the world which have significant relevancy to Asian history, thus charting globalism and localism from global perspectives.

In particular, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Korea-China Relations and Historical Configuration in Northeast Asia and (2) US-China Relations and Historical Issues in East Asia, both of which will help explore further how inter-state and intra-state matters were and are liked together to the historical development of continental East Asia and how the confluence of these external and internal factors have been making vital impact on the various mode of regional interaction in modern East Asia and beyond.

The Journal of Northeast Asian History calls for the submission of outstanding and unpublished papers for review and possible publication in Winter 2022. We invite colleagues to consider the Journal when seeking to publish ongoing research since we believe this can be an impetus for further scholarly collaboration in the future. For full consideration, please submit manuscripts by July 31, 2022 for Winter Issue.

Please contact us at jnah@nahf.or.kr or jnah.nahf@gmail.com should you have any questions regarding the journal, its submission process or subscription to it.
Thank you in advance for your attention and contributions.

'''CFP:''' “David versus Goliath - Souvereignty issues of small countries and regions neighboring large countries” European Journal of Chinese Studies 4 (2021)

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — the most consequential military conflict Europe has witnessed since the Second World War — has riveted the attention of the world. Almost inevitably people look to draw analogies — both historical and contemporary ones. One popular contemporary analogy is between Russia’s actions vis-à-vis Ukraine and mainland China’s approach to Taiwan.

In this issue, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Russia-Ukraine and (2) Mainland China-Taiwan. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine the two comparisons. We aim to bring together papers that (1) critically examine the differentiated situation of the two large authoriatarian nations; (2) discuss the ways in which two large authoritarian nations exert control on smaller neighbors; and (3) comparison with the approach of non-authoritarian large nations towards smaller neighbors; (4) consequences for world order, stability, peace and economical development.

Communication is among the best ways to resolve differences and strengthen cooperation. At an age when "anti-globalization" continues to characterize global situation; conservatism and ultra-nationalism are on the rise; and regional conflicts become frequent, cross-cultural communication seems to be particularly meaningful.

In this issue, we will welcome topics that concern (1) Chinese literature and (2) Western literature. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature in general or in particular works. We will welcome papers that (1) critically examine the different culture and cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature; (2) discusses the problems encountered in such cross-cutural communication; (3) what such communications contribute to Chinese or Western culture.

Minutes of the Kick-off meeting “EU JM Centre of Excellence for Digitalization of University Teaching” Nov 16, 2023, 10:00-11:30 am, HNU Tenglong Building, room 309
===Protocol: Martin Woesler===
===Participants===
Prof. Woesler, Prof. Jiang Lihua, Prof. Porter, PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Liu Rong, Zhouli Ziruo, Volunteer "Sari" Cai Xixiu.

===Next Meeting===
Friday Nov 24, 2023, 10:00 am room 309. For those who can only attend online: Zoom: http://bit.ly/ZOOMCOURSE

===Your contact people: The project staff===
Project Leader: Prof. Woesler, Project Assistants: PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Zhouli Ziruo, Liu Rong. The staff takes on the double task of conducting research (especially systematic literature reviews, surveys, field experiments testing different learning spaces or digital tools) and doing the administration (keeping the overview, watching the timeline, reports on the EU platform, reminding of deadlines, organizing meetings, inviting project members and external experts to joint papers, conferences, anthologies etc.).

===Salaries===
The project started in September and the project staff has already invested some work. So far, the payment of the salaries was not yet agreed to by the accounting office, they wanted more information. Still, there is a lot of work which needs to be done, including website and reports, until December. Therefore, it is important, that the accounting office already pays the monthly salaries to the project staff now in November.

===Budget===
The budget is quite large and except from the salary for the project staff contains several sub posts, like lump sum salary for students, travel reimbursement, equipment, website programming, conference costs etc. Prof. David Porter offered to design and create a EU and a CN website adhering to the respective policies.

===Personnel===
For the 5 Research Groups, the following heads were suggested:

#Regulation (Comparison) Liu Bai
#Experiences (Comparison) Aline
#Effectiveness of digital tools: David Porter, Ole Döring, Yang Zhiming

Explanation: (How to achieve learning outcomes of teaching in presence also with online or technology-enhanced teaching? Quality measurement.)
#Learning Spaces (Comparison): Jiang Lihua
#ChatGPT/PostEdit (Comparison C-EU): Martin Woesler

===Salary for Project Personnel and Project Members===
There is no monthly salary foreseen in the budget for all participants. But everybody who invests time in the project should be reimbursed. Since the publication of papers is the most important in the project, the project offers to reimburse all Professors and PhD candidates, who publish a paper to be reimbursed for 50 hours (each SCI, SSCI or A&HCI impact paper, corresponds to 1000 Euros for professors and 500 Euros for students), 25 hours (each CSSCI impact paper, corresponds to 500 Euros for professors and 250 Euros for students). Non PhD-Students (but Bachelor- or Master students) who participate, e.g. in the many time consuming tasks like literature review, surveys, field experiments, will be reimbursed with a lump sum per month and will be informed about the expected number of hours they are required to work.

===Credits and Acknowledgments===
Hunan Normal University needs to be mentioned as the affiliated university of both, the 1st and 2nd author. Also, the grant acknowledgement and disclaimer need to be printed with the paper, e.g. as a footnote or endnote. All posters, websites etc. need to display the EU Erasmus + co-funding logo.

===Things to do===
#Prof. Jiang: Please invite Prof. Liu Bai and Prof. Yang Zhiming.
#Prof. Jiang: Dean Situ and the Accounting office may contact you to reconfirm that the first money can be paid from the grant amount received.
#Ole: Please invite Prof. Aline Tedeschi
#Everybody: Please start to read the newest research papers on the topic. The library offers and EBSCO access. Ole can instruct student groups to perform different Systematic Literature Reviews. Languages should be at least Chinese and English. Some research questions should be developed through these literature reviews. Please keep in touch in the WeChat group and exchange your findings.

===Things to do for the project staff===
#Finalize report of old project (this part of the work is NOT paid by the new project) both on the EU platform as well as on the website http://jmchair.eu.
#Organize setting up a Website
#Get the frequent payments running with the accounting office in coordination with the College leadership.
#Conduct systematic literature reviews, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.
#Set up virtual working space on wiki and invite everybody to join. Publish there all findings.
#Invite everybody to the next meeting next Friday 10 am and collect points for the agenda from the participants.

P.S.: After the meeting, Prof. Jiang invited Prof. Woesler to join the current session of her Colloquium into room 410 (13:00-14:15). There he introduced the project again and offered the PhD candidates to join the project, preferrably assisting the head of research group 4, Prof. Jiang Lihua. PhD candidates are encouraged to join because they can make double use of their research for the project/publications and their thesis. Also, the participation in the project will be certified and can be used in the curriculum vitae for job applications.

===Budget and Salary===
For student volunteers the budget provides a total of 4,000 Yuan per month over the range of 3 years. Since there is a higher workload before and during conferences, we will have to be able to assign both salaries (e.g. for Cai Cixiu) and short-term contract salaries (e.g. for conferences). The project staff receives regular payments. The request for first payments has been submitted.

===Things to do===
#Sari: Please conduct a MikeCRM survey. Print the research questionnaire by Prof. Doering, and conduct the survey with the students who participated in the painting event. (When conducting the survey, the respondents’ initials with birth date (like WJG1001) can be used to code them, so that the privacy of respondents can be protected and we can compare and analyze developments.)
#Phd students: Please analyze the survey results of the last EU project, and upload the parts of the final report to the EU website (compare the answers of Prof. Woesler’s with the students’ answer and get the percentage both at the beginning and the end of the semester. If there is a progress, this would be a good result for the report.) Also copy documentation to website jmchair.eu.
#Prof. Porter: Thank you for submitting the first samples for a website. They are under review.
#Everybody: Start reading. Prepare systematic literature reviews on the project topic, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.

===Report by Martin Woesler on Grants for going to a French university as a visiting professor, chair professors===
For now, I recommend to already check out the grants to prepare a good application. Regarding the chair professor or visiting scholar programs for foreign professors in France, there are the following mostly financed by the EU, sometimes together with the French Ministry of Science (I have indicated all weblinks):

1. Chair Program with Universities and Grand Ecoles

In addition to receiving visiting professors or researchers, many French universities and Grandes Ecoles have chair programmes to welcome researchers from around the world. These programmes are usually designed for specific scientific problems and last for a limited time. The Collège de France in particular has developed a programme of excellence in which many chairs are reserved for foreign researchers or professors. www.college-de-france.fr.

2. Chair Programs with Research Establishments

Further, there are corporate chairs that enable foreign researchers to work with a company and research establishment for up to 2 years. This programme is financed by the French National Research Agency.

====Next Meeting: Jan 9, 2024====
==Meeting Jan 9, 2024 18:15 Chinese time (11:15 European time)==

We meet both in person in office #309 and online on Zoom: https://zoom.us/j/5739416744?pwd=c3h5L0NnY0xCWjlEMWhuNTBMbE92UT09

Everybody please prepare a 1 minute input what you found out so far from the literature, about experts we can invite and what you want to conduct research on.

===Input by David Porter===
Pardon any typos. As mentioned last time I would recommend we invite Prof. Luis Cordeiro-Rodrigues from Hunan University as he has experience with AI and ethics and is ‘right next door’ so to speak. I am happy to reach out to him but I think it would be good to have a formal CFP or fixed plan so that I can explain exactly what we would be invited for and when.

If invited speakers don’t have to be university-affiliated academics I would recommend Matt Sheehan (matt.sheehan@ceip.org) who is a fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a journal and involved with various think-tanks relating to global technology (including China - he is supposed to be fluent in Chinese). Zhu Junhua (junzhu@utu.fi https://www.utu.fi/en/people/junhua-zhu ) is a doctoral student at University of Turku, and so still an early career scholar but is doing work on AI governance and ethics who might be someone who can bridge the Europe-China divide. We all come across a lot of names, so it might be good to have a more settled idea of what our conference might focus on more narrowly?

I want to focus on AI and university teaching with a comparative focus on Europe and China. Even in the past few years there are thousands of relevant articles but I will focus on a few more specific and nuanced research goals in the next couple months. It will likely relate to the adoption of AI in educational institutions in both regions during and post-COVID, impact of AI on student engagement, and overall learning outcomes but I want to tie into ethical considerations. Can put this crudely:
1) How extensively is AI tech currently integrated into university teaching in Europe and China?
2) How do educators perceive and navigate the associated challenges with AI and their teaching practices? (ethics here).
3) What is the impact of AI on outcomes: academic performance, yes, but also student engagement and real learning outcomes (not just bullshit test scores) in European and Chinese universities?
4) What about institutional, cultural or contextual differences that shape the adoption and impact of AI in university teaching between Europe and China?

I am still working on Literature Review and narrowing down what lit to review since comprehensiveness is impossible/obsolete the day after it is done. I want to work this into something of a comparative analysis between Europe and China in terms of AI adoption and its impact on university teaching (not exactly that but something like that). Before next semester I want to have a tangible plan for some surveys to gather qualitative and quantitative data. I have a timeline to do the preliminary work by March and serious development for something that can be submitted for publication next Fall (optimistically October, absit omen).

=PREPARATION OF WACS 8 2024 in Poznan/Athens/Changsha=

Ideas to professionalize our annual conference and to win more people to participate
#we only recommend a conference hotel with a conference discount, but the participants book directly with the hotel. This helps us to lower the conference fees to maybe 190€. Also, we only accept international bank payment directly to the association‘s account.
#We should send a flyer to us universities in order to get some PhD candidates, who can present part of their Thesis. And of course scholars as a main target group.
#Last time we also improved: double blind peer review,
# issuing travel stipends,
#awards in different categories,
#chairs and discussants for all panels,
#hybrid format.

With budget cut over the years, except for the few very well-endowed private univs, in the US, most professors only have 1 trip paid. They will choose the most relevant and established one or two. Graduate students basically pay for themselves, so they only go to AAS and/or AAS Regional conferences.

With zoom, you have more flexibility.

Dan's perspectives are from those in linguistics, a much smaller group than the scope WACS advertises.

1. As a very young asso., even with high level and strong backing, you cannot compete with the established ones.

2. Your initial vision seemed to be a platform to bring in prc sinologists who don't work with the Eng lang.

3. But you also include Eng lang papers.

4. The last few years show that W European & N Am scholars are not attracted to the conference.

A) Some feedback seems to be this is a crazy group of people, a nicer way of saying they are unprofessional and disorganised.

B) The dates may be a part of it but less critical than the messiness.

5) So two issues:

A) the volume and national variety of participants; and

B) the asso's administration of the conferences.

6) Possible remedies:

A) you need a systematic way of proactively reaching out to universities and colleges all over the world, by sending the departments information about the coming year's conference & links, etc.

You have to do this every year. Your conference's scope covers culture, history, ling., lit, phil, pol sci, etc., so to each of these departments, a notice could be sent.

You can do so with a master list by approaching a certain number in each continent the first year, then adding a few more for that country the next year, and so on.

You can even target specific regions/ continents in different years. You are in Eastern Europe, it's a good time to get them to participate. Maybe alongside, this year, it is SE Asia. (Next year, it could be S. Am & Australia as specific targets.)

B) The asso's org: herein lies the foundation of the problem. Until you look hard into it and take serious steps to overhaul it, putting in place functional committees with members who put in time and energy to administer and operate the asso., hence the conference as well, even if (A) is successful one year, it will evaporate in a handful of years.

7) In short, it is necessary to prioritise the structural/ organisational reform in administration & operation, before the change of dates.

8) Since changing the dates in a big way may not bring in many more new participants, you may want to hold it off.

A) You may want to have someone to do a quick research to see when, e.g. Asia & SE Asia is most unlikely to attend a conf, then when in S Am, etc., and the reasons. You get an overview, then you decide.

*Submit a new Seed Grant 启动资金 to Administration: So in the new budget, we should have maybe 55.000 Yuan travel and (quarantine) hotel cost, 10.000 Yuan office 309 和 415 设备 (比如冰箱、饮水机), 30.000 Yuan salary for assistants, 5.000 Yuan budget for books and decoration (statues, paintings) we buy for the two walls and bookshelfs in both offices. If it is not possible to buy fridge etc. from it, we can plan this money differently. I am afraid we will spend all the money totally soon. Therefore, I will have to apply for a second budget maybe for 2023. I don't know if they grant me a second budget.
*The EU Grant requires to spend 67.000 Euros first, submit spending receipts and then apply for reimbursement of remaining 10.000 Euros. This means that the university has to release the 40.000 Euros now, is ready to spend the remaining 27.000 Euros then and get reimbursed only 10.000 Euros later.
*Read into the technical requirements of managing EU funds, this includes registering on web sites, filling out forms, submitting information and requesting fundings, controlling the funds arriving at the HUNNU account, forwarding it to the recipients at HUNNU, coordinating with financial department of HUNNU.

Location: Korea South

Subject Fields: Asian History / Studies, Chinese History / Studies, East Asian History / Studies, Japanese History / Studies, Korean History / Studies

CFP: The Journal of Northeast Asian History Vol. 19-1

Dear Colleagues,

The Northeast Asian History Foundation continues to expand its interaction with scholars specializing in Asian history and related fields outside East Asia. The Foundation is also strengthening its ties with leading institutions and scholars by encouraging interdisciplinary and comparative approaches to research on geopolitical, cultural, educational, and other issues in East Asia.

The Foundation publishes the Journal of Northeast Asian History (JNAH), a peer-reviewed semi-annual English-language journal that focuses on history-based approaches to Asian politics, cultures, economy and other fields to shed light on the historical realities of the Asian World. The Journal's geographical scope extends to other parts of the world which have significant relevancy to Asian history, thus charting globalism and localism from global perspectives.

In particular, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Korea-China Relations and Historical Configuration in Northeast Asia and (2) US-China Relations and Historical Issues in East Asia, both of which will help explore further how inter-state and intra-state matters were and are liked together to the historical development of continental East Asia and how the confluence of these external and internal factors have been making vital impact on the various mode of regional interaction in modern East Asia and beyond.

The Journal of Northeast Asian History calls for the submission of outstanding and unpublished papers for review and possible publication in Winter 2022. We invite colleagues to consider the Journal when seeking to publish ongoing research since we believe this can be an impetus for further scholarly collaboration in the future. For full consideration, please submit manuscripts by July 31, 2022 for Winter Issue.

Please contact us at jnah@nahf.or.kr or jnah.nahf@gmail.com should you have any questions regarding the journal, its submission process or subscription to it.
Thank you in advance for your attention and contributions.

'''CFP:''' “David versus Goliath - Souvereignty issues of small countries and regions neighboring large countries” European Journal of Chinese Studies 4 (2021)

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — the most consequential military conflict Europe has witnessed since the Second World War — has riveted the attention of the world. Almost inevitably people look to draw analogies — both historical and contemporary ones. One popular contemporary analogy is between Russia’s actions vis-à-vis Ukraine and mainland China’s approach to Taiwan.

In this issue, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Russia-Ukraine and (2) Mainland China-Taiwan. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine the two comparisons. We aim to bring together papers that (1) critically examine the differentiated situation of the two large authoriatarian nations; (2) discuss the ways in which two large authoritarian nations exert control on smaller neighbors; and (3) comparison with the approach of non-authoritarian large nations towards smaller neighbors; (4) consequences for world order, stability, peace and economical development.

Communication is among the best ways to resolve differences and strengthen cooperation. At an age when "anti-globalization" continues to characterize global situation; conservatism and ultra-nationalism are on the rise; and regional conflicts become frequent, cross-cultural communication seems to be particularly meaningful.

In this issue, we will welcome topics that concern (1) Chinese literature and (2) Western literature. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature in general or in particular works. We will welcome papers that (1) critically examine the different culture and cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature; (2) discusses the problems encountered in such cross-cutural communication; (3) what such communications contribute to Chinese or Western culture.

Minutes of the Kick-off meeting “EU JM Centre of Excellence for Digitalization of University Teaching” Nov 16, 2023, 10:00-11:30 am, HNU Tenglong Building, room 309
===Protocol: Martin Woesler===
===Participants===
Prof. Woesler, Prof. Jiang Lihua, Prof. Porter, PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Liu Rong, Zhouli Ziruo, Volunteer "Sari" Cai Xixiu.

===Next Meeting===
Friday Nov 24, 2023, 10:00 am room 309. For those who can only attend online: Zoom: http://bit.ly/ZOOMCOURSE

===Your contact people: The project staff===
Project Leader: Prof. Woesler, Project Assistants: PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Zhouli Ziruo, Liu Rong. The staff takes on the double task of conducting research (especially systematic literature reviews, surveys, field experiments testing different learning spaces or digital tools) and doing the administration (keeping the overview, watching the timeline, reports on the EU platform, reminding of deadlines, organizing meetings, inviting project members and external experts to joint papers, conferences, anthologies etc.).

===Salaries===
The project started in September and the project staff has already invested some work. So far, the payment of the salaries was not yet agreed to by the accounting office, they wanted more information. Still, there is a lot of work which needs to be done, including website and reports, until December. Therefore, it is important, that the accounting office already pays the monthly salaries to the project staff now in November.

===Budget===
The budget is quite large and except from the salary for the project staff contains several sub posts, like lump sum salary for students, travel reimbursement, equipment, website programming, conference costs etc. Prof. David Porter offered to design and create a EU and a CN website adhering to the respective policies.

===Personnel===
For the 5 Research Groups, the following heads were suggested:

#Regulation (Comparison) Liu Bai
#Experiences (Comparison) Aline
#Effectiveness of digital tools: David Porter, Ole Döring, Yang Zhiming

Explanation: (How to achieve learning outcomes of teaching in presence also with online or technology-enhanced teaching? Quality measurement.)
#Learning Spaces (Comparison): Jiang Lihua
#ChatGPT/PostEdit (Comparison C-EU): Martin Woesler

===Salary for Project Personnel and Project Members===
There is no monthly salary foreseen in the budget for all participants. But everybody who invests time in the project should be reimbursed. Since the publication of papers is the most important in the project, the project offers to reimburse all Professors and PhD candidates, who publish a paper to be reimbursed for 50 hours (each SCI, SSCI or A&HCI impact paper, corresponds to 1000 Euros for professors and 500 Euros for students), 25 hours (each CSSCI impact paper, corresponds to 500 Euros for professors and 250 Euros for students). Non PhD-Students (but Bachelor- or Master students) who participate, e.g. in the many time consuming tasks like literature review, surveys, field experiments, will be reimbursed with a lump sum per month and will be informed about the expected number of hours they are required to work.

===Credits and Acknowledgments===
Hunan Normal University needs to be mentioned as the affiliated university of both, the 1st and 2nd author. Also, the grant acknowledgement and disclaimer need to be printed with the paper, e.g. as a footnote or endnote. All posters, websites etc. need to display the EU Erasmus + co-funding logo.

===Things to do===
#Prof. Jiang: Please invite Prof. Liu Bai and Prof. Yang Zhiming.
#Prof. Jiang: Dean Situ and the Accounting office may contact you to reconfirm that the first money can be paid from the grant amount received.
#Ole: Please invite Prof. Aline Tedeschi
#Everybody: Please start to read the newest research papers on the topic. The library offers and EBSCO access. Ole can instruct student groups to perform different Systematic Literature Reviews. Languages should be at least Chinese and English. Some research questions should be developed through these literature reviews. Please keep in touch in the WeChat group and exchange your findings.

===Things to do for the project staff===
#Finalize report of old project (this part of the work is NOT paid by the new project) both on the EU platform as well as on the website http://jmchair.eu.
#Organize setting up a Website
#Get the frequent payments running with the accounting office in coordination with the College leadership.
#Conduct systematic literature reviews, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.
#Set up virtual working space on wiki and invite everybody to join. Publish there all findings.
#Invite everybody to the next meeting next Friday 10 am and collect points for the agenda from the participants.

P.S.: After the meeting, Prof. Jiang invited Prof. Woesler to join the current session of her Colloquium into room 410 (13:00-14:15). There he introduced the project again and offered the PhD candidates to join the project, preferrably assisting the head of research group 4, Prof. Jiang Lihua. PhD candidates are encouraged to join because they can make double use of their research for the project/publications and their thesis. Also, the participation in the project will be certified and can be used in the curriculum vitae for job applications.

===Budget and Salary===
For student volunteers the budget provides a total of 4,000 Yuan per month over the range of 3 years. Since there is a higher workload before and during conferences, we will have to be able to assign both salaries (e.g. for Cai Cixiu) and short-term contract salaries (e.g. for conferences). The project staff receives regular payments. The request for first payments has been submitted.

===Things to do===
#Sari: Please conduct a MikeCRM survey. Print the research questionnaire by Prof. Doering, and conduct the survey with the students who participated in the painting event. (When conducting the survey, the respondents’ initials with birth date (like WJG1001) can be used to code them, so that the privacy of respondents can be protected and we can compare and analyze developments.)
#Phd students: Please analyze the survey results of the last EU project, and upload the parts of the final report to the EU website (compare the answers of Prof. Woesler’s with the students’ answer and get the percentage both at the beginning and the end of the semester. If there is a progress, this would be a good result for the report.) Also copy documentation to website jmchair.eu.
#Prof. Porter: Thank you for submitting the first samples for a website. They are under review.
#Everybody: Start reading. Prepare systematic literature reviews on the project topic, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.

Ethical questions towards ChatGPT.

How can I use ChatGPT for teaching in class?

Brainstorming

Writing tradition.

Critical thinking skills, reading habits, writing habits.

Do you think it would be appropriate to use ChatGPT.

How much percentage could be replaced with ChatGPT.

Research literacy.

The students are asked why they are given the tasks.

Complete lack of ethical reasoning.

The human input: Prompting.

Standardized surveys exist for cheating and plagiarizing.

Revalue the understanding of "cheating".

A few years ago, one was

"Is it ok to copy and paste a paragraph for your own paper and claim its yours."

"Is it ok to copy and paste a paragraph to ChatGPT."

Frankensteining assisting parts.

Does it matter that ChatGPT plagiarizes?

Authorship discussion.

===Report by Martin Woesler on Grants for going to a French university as a visiting professor, chair professors===
For now, I recommend to already check out the grants to prepare a good application. Regarding the chair professor or visiting scholar programs for foreign professors in France, there are the following mostly financed by the EU, sometimes together with the French Ministry of Science (I have indicated all weblinks):

1. Chair Program with Universities and Grand Ecoles

In addition to receiving visiting professors or researchers, many French universities and Grandes Ecoles have chair programmes to welcome researchers from around the world. These programmes are usually designed for specific scientific problems and last for a limited time. The Collège de France in particular has developed a programme of excellence in which many chairs are reserved for foreign researchers or professors. www.college-de-france.fr.

2. Chair Programs with Research Establishments

Further, there are corporate chairs that enable foreign researchers to work with a company and research establishment for up to 2 years. This programme is financed by the French National Research Agency.
http://www.agence-nationale-recherche.fr/suivi-bilan/historique-des-appels-a-projets/appel-detail1/chaires-industrielles-2017/

3. Visiting Professors

====Next Meeting: Jan 9, 2024====
==Meeting Jan 9, 2024 18:15 Chinese time (11:15 European time)==

We meet both in person in office #309 and online on Zoom: https://zoom.us/j/5739416744?pwd=c3h5L0NnY0xCWjlEMWhuNTBMbE92UT09

Everybody please prepare a 1 minute input what you found out so far from the literature, about experts we can invite and what you want to conduct research on.

===Input by David Porter===
Pardon any typos. As mentioned last time I would recommend we invite Prof. Luis Cordeiro-Rodrigues from Hunan University as he has experience with AI and ethics and is ‘right next door’ so to speak. I am happy to reach out to him but I think it would be good to have a formal CFP or fixed plan so that I can explain exactly what we would be invited for and when.

If invited speakers don’t have to be university-affiliated academics I would recommend Matt Sheehan (matt.sheehan@ceip.org) who is a fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a journal and involved with various think-tanks relating to global technology (including China - he is supposed to be fluent in Chinese). Zhu Junhua (junzhu@utu.fi https://www.utu.fi/en/people/junhua-zhu ) is a doctoral student at University of Turku, and so still an early career scholar but is doing work on AI governance and ethics who might be someone who can bridge the Europe-China divide. We all come across a lot of names, so it might be good to have a more settled idea of what our conference might focus on more narrowly?

I want to focus on AI and university teaching with a comparative focus on Europe and China. Even in the past few years there are thousands of relevant articles but I will focus on a few more specific and nuanced research goals in the next couple months. It will likely relate to the adoption of AI in educational institutions in both regions during and post-COVID, impact of AI on student engagement, and overall learning outcomes but I want to tie into ethical considerations. Can put this crudely:
1) How extensively is AI tech currently integrated into university teaching in Europe and China?
2) How do educators perceive and navigate the associated challenges with AI and their teaching practices? (ethics here).
3) What is the impact of AI on outcomes: academic performance, yes, but also student engagement and real learning outcomes (not just bullshit test scores) in European and Chinese universities?
4) What about institutional, cultural or contextual differences that shape the adoption and impact of AI in university teaching between Europe and China?

I am still working on Literature Review and narrowing down what lit to review since comprehensiveness is impossible/obsolete the day after it is done. I want to work this into something of a comparative analysis between Europe and China in terms of AI adoption and its impact on university teaching (not exactly that but something like that). Before next semester I want to have a tangible plan for some surveys to gather qualitative and quantitative data. I have a timeline to do the preliminary work by March and serious development for something that can be submitted for publication next Fall (optimistically October, absit omen).

=PREPARATION OF WACS 8 2024 in Poznan/Athens/Changsha=

Ideas to professionalize our annual conference and to win more people to participate
#we only recommend a conference hotel with a conference discount, but the participants book directly with the hotel. This helps us to lower the conference fees to maybe 190€. Also, we only accept international bank payment directly to the association‘s account.
#We should send a flyer to us universities in order to get some PhD candidates, who can present part of their Thesis. And of course scholars as a main target group.
#Last time we also improved: double blind peer review,
# issuing travel stipends,
#awards in different categories,
#chairs and discussants for all panels,
#hybrid format.

With budget cut over the years, except for the few very well-endowed private univs, in the US, most professors only have 1 trip paid. They will choose the most relevant and established one or two. Graduate students basically pay for themselves, so they only go to AAS and/or AAS Regional conferences.

With zoom, you have more flexibility.

Dan's perspectives are from those in linguistics, a much smaller group than the scope WACS advertises.

1. As a very young asso., even with high level and strong backing, you cannot compete with the established ones.

2. Your initial vision seemed to be a platform to bring in prc sinologists who don't work with the Eng lang.

3. But you also include Eng lang papers.

4. The last few years show that W European & N Am scholars are not attracted to the conference.

A) Some feedback seems to be this is a crazy group of people, a nicer way of saying they are unprofessional and disorganised.

B) The dates may be a part of it but less critical than the messiness.

5) So two issues:

A) the volume and national variety of participants; and

B) the asso's administration of the conferences.

6) Possible remedies:

A) you need a systematic way of proactively reaching out to universities and colleges all over the world, by sending the departments information about the coming year's conference & links, etc.

You have to do this every year. Your conference's scope covers culture, history, ling., lit, phil, pol sci, etc., so to each of these departments, a notice could be sent.

You can do so with a master list by approaching a certain number in each continent the first year, then adding a few more for that country the next year, and so on.

You can even target specific regions/ continents in different years. You are in Eastern Europe, it's a good time to get them to participate. Maybe alongside, this year, it is SE Asia. (Next year, it could be S. Am & Australia as specific targets.)

B) The asso's org: herein lies the foundation of the problem. Until you look hard into it and take serious steps to overhaul it, putting in place functional committees with members who put in time and energy to administer and operate the asso., hence the conference as well, even if (A) is successful one year, it will evaporate in a handful of years.

7) In short, it is necessary to prioritise the structural/ organisational reform in administration & operation, before the change of dates.

8) Since changing the dates in a big way may not bring in many more new participants, you may want to hold it off.

A) You may want to have someone to do a quick research to see when, e.g. Asia & SE Asia is most unlikely to attend a conf, then when in S Am, etc., and the reasons. You get an overview, then you decide.

*Submit a new Seed Grant 启动资金 to Administration: So in the new budget, we should have maybe 55.000 Yuan travel and (quarantine) hotel cost, 10.000 Yuan office 309 和 415 设备 (比如冰箱、饮水机), 30.000 Yuan salary for assistants, 5.000 Yuan budget for books and decoration (statues, paintings) we buy for the two walls and bookshelfs in both offices. If it is not possible to buy fridge etc. from it, we can plan this money differently. I am afraid we will spend all the money totally soon. Therefore, I will have to apply for a second budget maybe for 2023. I don't know if they grant me a second budget.
*The EU Grant requires to spend 67.000 Euros first, submit spending receipts and then apply for reimbursement of remaining 10.000 Euros. This means that the university has to release the 40.000 Euros now, is ready to spend the remaining 27.000 Euros then and get reimbursed only 10.000 Euros later.
*Read into the technical requirements of managing EU funds, this includes registering on web sites, filling out forms, submitting information and requesting fundings, controlling the funds arriving at the HUNNU account, forwarding it to the recipients at HUNNU, coordinating with financial department of HUNNU.

Location: Korea South

Subject Fields: Asian History / Studies, Chinese History / Studies, East Asian History / Studies, Japanese History / Studies, Korean History / Studies

CFP: The Journal of Northeast Asian History Vol. 19-1

Dear Colleagues,

The Northeast Asian History Foundation continues to expand its interaction with scholars specializing in Asian history and related fields outside East Asia. The Foundation is also strengthening its ties with leading institutions and scholars by encouraging interdisciplinary and comparative approaches to research on geopolitical, cultural, educational, and other issues in East Asia.

The Foundation publishes the Journal of Northeast Asian History (JNAH), a peer-reviewed semi-annual English-language journal that focuses on history-based approaches to Asian politics, cultures, economy and other fields to shed light on the historical realities of the Asian World. The Journal's geographical scope extends to other parts of the world which have significant relevancy to Asian history, thus charting globalism and localism from global perspectives.

In particular, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Korea-China Relations and Historical Configuration in Northeast Asia and (2) US-China Relations and Historical Issues in East Asia, both of which will help explore further how inter-state and intra-state matters were and are liked together to the historical development of continental East Asia and how the confluence of these external and internal factors have been making vital impact on the various mode of regional interaction in modern East Asia and beyond.

The Journal of Northeast Asian History calls for the submission of outstanding and unpublished papers for review and possible publication in Winter 2022. We invite colleagues to consider the Journal when seeking to publish ongoing research since we believe this can be an impetus for further scholarly collaboration in the future. For full consideration, please submit manuscripts by July 31, 2022 for Winter Issue.

Please contact us at jnah@nahf.or.kr or jnah.nahf@gmail.com should you have any questions regarding the journal, its submission process or subscription to it.
Thank you in advance for your attention and contributions.

'''CFP:''' “David versus Goliath - Souvereignty issues of small countries and regions neighboring large countries” European Journal of Chinese Studies 4 (2021)

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — the most consequential military conflict Europe has witnessed since the Second World War — has riveted the attention of the world. Almost inevitably people look to draw analogies — both historical and contemporary ones. One popular contemporary analogy is between Russia’s actions vis-à-vis Ukraine and mainland China’s approach to Taiwan.

In this issue, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Russia-Ukraine and (2) Mainland China-Taiwan. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine the two comparisons. We aim to bring together papers that (1) critically examine the differentiated situation of the two large authoriatarian nations; (2) discuss the ways in which two large authoritarian nations exert control on smaller neighbors; and (3) comparison with the approach of non-authoritarian large nations towards smaller neighbors; (4) consequences for world order, stability, peace and economical development.

Communication is among the best ways to resolve differences and strengthen cooperation. At an age when "anti-globalization" continues to characterize global situation; conservatism and ultra-nationalism are on the rise; and regional conflicts become frequent, cross-cultural communication seems to be particularly meaningful.

In this issue, we will welcome topics that concern (1) Chinese literature and (2) Western literature. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature in general or in particular works. We will welcome papers that (1) critically examine the different culture and cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature; (2) discusses the problems encountered in such cross-cutural communication; (3) what such communications contribute to Chinese or Western culture.

Minutes of the Kick-off meeting “EU JM Centre of Excellence for Digitalization of University Teaching” Nov 16, 2023, 10:00-11:30 am, HNU Tenglong Building, room 309
===Protocol: Martin Woesler===
===Participants===
Prof. Woesler, Prof. Jiang Lihua, Prof. Porter, PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Liu Rong, Zhouli Ziruo, Volunteer "Sari" Cai Xixiu.

===Next Meeting===
Friday Nov 24, 2023, 10:00 am room 309. For those who can only attend online: Zoom: http://bit.ly/ZOOMCOURSE

===Your contact people: The project staff===
Project Leader: Prof. Woesler, Project Assistants: PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Zhouli Ziruo, Liu Rong. The staff takes on the double task of conducting research (especially systematic literature reviews, surveys, field experiments testing different learning spaces or digital tools) and doing the administration (keeping the overview, watching the timeline, reports on the EU platform, reminding of deadlines, organizing meetings, inviting project members and external experts to joint papers, conferences, anthologies etc.).

===Salaries===
The project started in September and the project staff has already invested some work. So far, the payment of the salaries was not yet agreed to by the accounting office, they wanted more information. Still, there is a lot of work which needs to be done, including website and reports, until December. Therefore, it is important, that the accounting office already pays the monthly salaries to the project staff now in November.

===Budget===
The budget is quite large and except from the salary for the project staff contains several sub posts, like lump sum salary for students, travel reimbursement, equipment, website programming, conference costs etc. Prof. David Porter offered to design and create a EU and a CN website adhering to the respective policies.

===Personnel===
For the 5 Research Groups, the following heads were suggested:

#Regulation (Comparison) Liu Bai
#Experiences (Comparison) Aline
#Effectiveness of digital tools: David Porter, Ole Döring, Yang Zhiming

Explanation: (How to achieve learning outcomes of teaching in presence also with online or technology-enhanced teaching? Quality measurement.)
#Learning Spaces (Comparison): Jiang Lihua
#ChatGPT/PostEdit (Comparison C-EU): Martin Woesler

===Salary for Project Personnel and Project Members===
There is no monthly salary foreseen in the budget for all participants. But everybody who invests time in the project should be reimbursed. Since the publication of papers is the most important in the project, the project offers to reimburse all Professors and PhD candidates, who publish a paper to be reimbursed for 50 hours (each SCI, SSCI or A&HCI impact paper, corresponds to 1000 Euros for professors and 500 Euros for students), 25 hours (each CSSCI impact paper, corresponds to 500 Euros for professors and 250 Euros for students). Non PhD-Students (but Bachelor- or Master students) who participate, e.g. in the many time consuming tasks like literature review, surveys, field experiments, will be reimbursed with a lump sum per month and will be informed about the expected number of hours they are required to work.

===Credits and Acknowledgments===
Hunan Normal University needs to be mentioned as the affiliated university of both, the 1st and 2nd author. Also, the grant acknowledgement and disclaimer need to be printed with the paper, e.g. as a footnote or endnote. All posters, websites etc. need to display the EU Erasmus + co-funding logo.

===Things to do===
#Prof. Jiang: Please invite Prof. Liu Bai and Prof. Yang Zhiming.
#Prof. Jiang: Dean Situ and the Accounting office may contact you to reconfirm that the first money can be paid from the grant amount received.
#Ole: Please invite Prof. Aline Tedeschi

Languages should be at least Chinese and English. Some research questions should be developed through these literature reviews. Please keep in touch in the WeChat group and exchange your findings.

===Things to do for the project staff===
#Finalize report of old project (this part of the work is NOT paid by the new project) both on the EU platform as well as on the website http://jmchair.eu.
#Organize setting up a Website
#Get the frequent payments running with the accounting office in coordination with the College leadership.
#Conduct systematic literature reviews, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.
#Set up virtual working space on wiki and invite everybody to join. Publish there all findings.
#Invite everybody to the next meeting next Friday 10 am and collect points for the agenda from the participants.

P.S.: After the meeting, Prof. Jiang invited Prof. Woesler to join the current session of her Colloquium into room 410 (13:00-14:15). There he introduced the project again and offered the PhD candidates to join the project, preferrably assisting the head of research group 4, Prof. Jiang Lihua. PhD candidates are encouraged to join because they can make double use of their research for the project/publications and their thesis. Also, the participation in the project will be certified and can be used in the curriculum vitae for job applications.

Minutes of the second weekly meeting “EU JM Centre of Excellence for Digitalization of University Teaching” Nov 24, 2023, 10:00-11:30 am, HNNU Tenglong Building, room 309

===Protocal: Liu Rong, edited: Martin Woesler===

===Participants===
Prof. Woesler, Prof. Porter, Prof. Ma Nake, PhD students Duan Yuanyuan, Liu Rong, "Sari" Cai Xixiu.

===Next Meeting===
Scheduled for Tuesday Nov 29, 16:00 and 18:15 Chinese time room 309. For those who can only attend online: Tencent Meeting:https://meeting.tencent.com/dm/bCQdfgGlezZ1

===Budget and Salary===
For student volunteers the budget provides a total of 4,000 Yuan per month over the range of 3 years. Since there is a higher workload before and during conferences, we will have to be able to assign both salaries (e.g. for Cai Cixiu) and short-term contract salaries (e.g. for conferences). The project staff receives regular payments. The request for first payments has been submitted.

===Things to do===
#Sari: Please conduct a MikeCRM survey. Print the research questionnaire by Prof. Doering, and conduct the survey with the students who participated in the painting event. (When conducting the survey, the respondents’ initials with birth date (like WJG1001) can be used to code them, so that the privacy of respondents can be protected and we can compare and analyze developments.)
#Phd students: Please analyze the survey results of the last EU project, and upload the parts of the final report to the EU website (compare the answers of Prof. Woesler’s with the students’ answer and get the percentage both at the beginning and the end of the semester. If there is a progress, this would be a good result for the report.) Also copy documentation to website jmchair.eu.
#Prof. Porter: Thank you for submitting the first samples for a website. They are under review.
#Everybody: Start reading. Prepare systematic literature reviews on the project topic, develop research questions, surveys, field studies, experiments etc. => results on wiki for everybody to use.

===Report by Martin Woesler on Grants for going to a French university as a visiting professor, chair professors===
For now, I recommend to already check out the grants to prepare a good application. Regarding the chair professor or visiting scholar programs for foreign professors in France, there are the following mostly financed by the EU, sometimes together with the French Ministry of Science (I have indicated all weblinks):

1. Chair Program with Universities and Grand Ecoles

In addition to receiving visiting professors or researchers, many French universities and Grandes Ecoles have chair programmes to welcome researchers from around the world. These programmes are usually designed for specific scientific problems and last for a limited time. The Collège de France in particular has developed a programme of excellence in which many chairs are reserved for foreign researchers or professors. www.college-de-france.fr.

2. Chair Programs with Research Establishments

Further, there are corporate chairs that enable foreign researchers to work with a company and research establishment for up to 2 years. This programme is financed by the French National Research Agency.
http://www.agence-nationale-recherche.fr/suivi-bilan/historique-des-appels-a-projets/appel-detail1/chaires-industrielles-2017/

====Next Meeting: Jan 9, 2024====
==Meeting Jan 9, 2024 18:15 Chinese time (11:15 European time)==

We meet both in person in office #309 and online on Zoom: https://zoom.us/j/5739416744?pwd=c3h5L0NnY0xCWjlEMWhuNTBMbE92UT09

Everybody please prepare a 1 minute input what you found out so far from the literature, about experts we can invite and what you want to conduct research on.

===Input by David Porter===
Pardon any typos. As mentioned last time I would recommend we invite Prof. Luis Cordeiro-Rodrigues from Hunan University as he has experience with AI and ethics and is ‘right next door’ so to speak. I am happy to reach out to him but I think it would be good to have a formal CFP or fixed plan so that I can explain exactly what we would be invited for and when.

If invited speakers don’t have to be university-affiliated academics I would recommend Matt Sheehan (matt.sheehan@ceip.org) who is a fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a journal and involved with various think-tanks relating to global technology (including China - he is supposed to be fluent in Chinese). Zhu Junhua (junzhu@utu.fi https://www.utu.fi/en/people/junhua-zhu ) is a doctoral student at University of Turku, and so still an early career scholar but is doing work on AI governance and ethics who might be someone who can bridge the Europe-China divide. We all come across a lot of names, so it might be good to have a more settled idea of what our conference might focus on more narrowly?

I want to focus on AI and university teaching with a comparative focus on Europe and China. Even in the past few years there are thousands of relevant articles but I will focus on a few more specific and nuanced research goals in the next couple months. It will likely relate to the adoption of AI in educational institutions in both regions during and post-COVID, impact of AI on student engagement, and overall learning outcomes but I want to tie into ethical considerations. Can put this crudely:
1) How extensively is AI tech currently integrated into university teaching in Europe and China?
2) How do educators perceive and navigate the associated challenges with AI and their teaching practices? (ethics here).
3) What is the impact of AI on outcomes: academic performance, yes, but also student engagement and real learning outcomes (not just bullshit test scores) in European and Chinese universities?
4) What about institutional, cultural or contextual differences that shape the adoption and impact of AI in university teaching between Europe and China?

I am still working on Literature Review and narrowing down what lit to review since comprehensiveness is impossible/obsolete the day after it is done. I want to work this into something of a comparative analysis between Europe and China in terms of AI adoption and its impact on university teaching (not exactly that but something like that). Before next semester I want to have a tangible plan for some surveys to gather qualitative and quantitative data. I have a timeline to do the preliminary work by March and serious development for something that can be submitted for publication next Fall (optimistically October, absit omen).

====List of experts to invite for lecture series====
====Recommendations by David Porter====
*Prof. Luis Cordeiro-Rodrigues, Hunan University, has experience with AI and ethics and is ‘right next door’ so to speak. I am happy to reach out to him but I think it would be good to have a formal CFP or fixed plan so that I can explain exactly what we would be invited for and when.

=PREPARATION OF WACS 8 2024 in Poznan/Athens/Changsha=

Ideas to professionalize our annual conference and to win more people to participate
#we only recommend a conference hotel with a conference discount, but the participants book directly with the hotel. This helps us to lower the conference fees to maybe 190€. Also, we only accept international bank payment directly to the association‘s account.
#We should send a flyer to us universities in order to get some PhD candidates, who can present part of their Thesis. And of course scholars as a main target group.
#Last time we also improved: double blind peer review,
# issuing travel stipends,
#awards in different categories,
#chairs and discussants for all panels,
#hybrid format.

With budget cut over the years, except for the few very well-endowed private univs, in the US, most professors only have 1 trip paid. They will choose the most relevant and established one or two. Graduate students basically pay for themselves, so they only go to AAS and/or AAS Regional conferences.

With zoom, you have more flexibility.

Dan's perspectives are from those in linguistics, a much smaller group than the scope WACS advertises.

1. As a very young asso., even with high level and strong backing, you cannot compete with the established ones.

2. Your initial vision seemed to be a platform to bring in prc sinologists who don't work with the Eng lang.

3. But you also include Eng lang papers.

4. The last few years show that W European & N Am scholars are not attracted to the conference.

A) Some feedback seems to be this is a crazy group of people, a nicer way of saying they are unprofessional and disorganised.

B) The dates may be a part of it but less critical than the messiness.

5) So two issues:

A) the volume and national variety of participants; and

B) the asso's administration of the conferences.

6) Possible remedies:

A) you need a systematic way of proactively reaching out to universities and colleges all over the world, by sending the departments information about the coming year's conference & links, etc.

You have to do this every year. Your conference's scope covers culture, history, ling., lit, phil, pol sci, etc., so to each of these departments, a notice could be sent.

You can do so with a master list by approaching a certain number in each continent the first year, then adding a few more for that country the next year, and so on.

You can even target specific regions/ continents in different years. You are in Eastern Europe, it's a good time to get them to participate. Maybe alongside, this year, it is SE Asia. (Next year, it could be S. Am & Australia as specific targets.)

B) The asso's org: herein lies the foundation of the problem. Until you look hard into it and take serious steps to overhaul it, putting in place functional committees with members who put in time and energy to administer and operate the asso., hence the conference as well, even if (A) is successful one year, it will evaporate in a handful of years.

7) In short, it is necessary to prioritise the structural/ organisational reform in administration & operation, before the change of dates.

8) Since changing the dates in a big way may not bring in many more new participants, you may want to hold it off.

A) You may want to have someone to do a quick research to see when, e.g. Asia & SE Asia is most unlikely to attend a conf, then when in S Am, etc., and the reasons. You get an overview, then you decide.

=We need to keep reminding=
*Lihua Jiang helps to solve the following problems: JM grant (the first amount has to be paid to the participating teachers), Seed grant (will reimburse flight costs and student assistants' salaries), admission of international student Markus Mueller to PhD program, admission of Olha Woesler to BA program to collect more certificates for teaching at FSC
=Successfully completed tasks=
*We have submitted the [[Interview by Wan Shuyuan 2022]], it got more than 1 million readers and was republished on several platforms including the website of the Chinese Embassy in Germany
*The JM budget of 40.000 Euros was moved from "Research" to "Education" 教务处 and paid to the participating teachers. Now we need to provide evidence for more teachings so that the remaining 10.000 Euros and 16.667 Euros matching funds from the university can be spent and 10,000 Euros will be reimbursed upon delivery of the report. Contact person: WeChat ID chiryhuo 霍丽 Lei Li，传神湖南高校的联系人 (Aim: Get the funds assigned to Martin Woesler, then paid to the participating teachers)

=Staff tasks=
==Martin Woesler==
*Send everyone a sample of the journal and the vetting (review) of the Chinese essays.
*Prepare 2 MOOC contents and produce films
==Duan Yuanyuan==
'''Funds Management'''
*Submit a new Seed Grant 启动资金 to Administration: So in the new budget, we should have maybe 55.000 Yuan travel and (quarantine) hotel cost, 10.000 Yuan office 309 和 415 设备 (比如冰箱、饮水机), 30.000 Yuan salary for assistants, 5.000 Yuan budget for books and decoration (statues, paintings) we buy for the two walls and bookshelfs in both offices. If it is not possible to buy fridge etc. from it, we can plan this money differently. I am afraid we will spend all the money totally soon. Therefore, I will have to apply for a second budget maybe for 2023. I don't know if they grant me a second budget.
*The EU Grant requires to spend 67.000 Euros first, submit spending receipts and then apply for reimbursement of remaining 10.000 Euros. This means that the university has to release the 40.000 Euros now, is ready to spend the remaining 27.000 Euros then and get reimbursed only 10.000 Euros later.
*Read into the technical requirements of managing EU funds, this includes registering on web sites, filling out forms, submitting information and requesting fundings, controlling the funds arriving at the HUNNU account, forwarding it to the recipients at HUNNU, coordinating with financial department of HUNNU.

Location: Korea South

Subject Fields: Asian History / Studies, Chinese History / Studies, East Asian History / Studies, Japanese History / Studies, Korean History / Studies

CFP: The Journal of Northeast Asian History Vol. 19-1

Dear Colleagues,

The Northeast Asian History Foundation continues to expand its interaction with scholars specializing in Asian history and related fields outside East Asia. The Foundation is also strengthening its ties with leading institutions and scholars by encouraging interdisciplinary and comparative approaches to research on geopolitical, cultural, educational, and other issues in East Asia.

The Foundation publishes the Journal of Northeast Asian History (JNAH), a peer-reviewed semi-annual English-language journal that focuses on history-based approaches to Asian politics, cultures, economy and other fields to shed light on the historical realities of the Asian World. The Journal's geographical scope extends to other parts of the world which have significant relevancy to Asian history, thus charting globalism and localism from global perspectives.

In particular, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Korea-China Relations and Historical Configuration in Northeast Asia and (2) US-China Relations and Historical Issues in East Asia, both of which will help explore further how inter-state and intra-state matters were and are liked together to the historical development of continental East Asia and how the confluence of these external and internal factors have been making vital impact on the various mode of regional interaction in modern East Asia and beyond.

The Journal of Northeast Asian History calls for the submission of outstanding and unpublished papers for review and possible publication in Winter 2022. We invite colleagues to consider the Journal when seeking to publish ongoing research since we believe this can be an impetus for further scholarly collaboration in the future. For full consideration, please submit manuscripts by July 31, 2022 for Winter Issue.

Please contact us at jnah@nahf.or.kr or jnah.nahf@gmail.com should you have any questions regarding the journal, its submission process or subscription to it.
Thank you in advance for your attention and contributions.

'''CFP:''' “David versus Goliath - Souvereignty issues of small countries and regions neighboring large countries” European Journal of Chinese Studies 4 (2021)

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — the most consequential military conflict Europe has witnessed since the Second World War — has riveted the attention of the world. Almost inevitably people look to draw analogies — both historical and contemporary ones. One popular contemporary analogy is between Russia’s actions vis-à-vis Ukraine and mainland China’s approach to Taiwan.

In this issue, we will welcome two topics that concern (1) Russia-Ukraine and (2) Mainland China-Taiwan. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine the two comparisons. We aim to bring together papers that (1) critically examine the differentiated situation of the two large authoriatarian nations; (2) discuss the ways in which two large authoritarian nations exert control on smaller neighbors; and (3) comparison with the approach of non-authoritarian large nations towards smaller neighbors; (4) consequences for world order, stability, peace and economical development.

Communication is among the best ways to resolve differences and strengthen cooperation. At an age when "anti-globalization" continues to characterize global situation; conservatism and ultra-nationalism are on the rise; and regional conflicts become frequent, cross-cultural communication seems to be particularly meaningful.

In this issue, we will welcome topics that concern (1) Chinese literature and (2) Western literature. We aim to bring together papers that critically examine cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature in general or in particular works. We will welcome papers that (1) critically examine the different culture and cross-cultural elements in Chinese and Western literature; (2) discusses the problems encountered in such cross-cutural communication; (3) what such communications contribute to Chinese or Western culture.

===Introduction===
Pepper was introduced into China from America at the end of the Ming Dynasty, but at first it was only used as ornamental crops and medicines. In the early Qing Dynasty, Guizhou and its neighboring areas were the first to eat chili. In Guizhou, where salt was scarce, during the reign of Emperor Kangxi (1662-1722), "soil seedlings were used to replace salt". Pepper played a role in replacing salt, which shows that it is closely related to life. From the Qianlong period (1736-1795), a large number of hot peppers were eaten in Guizhou. During the reign of Qianlong, Zhenxiong, Yunnan, which was adjacent to Guizhou, and Chenzhou Prefecture, Hunan, in the east of Guizhou, also began to eat chili. After Jiaqing (1796-1820), pepper was widely planted in Guizhou, Hunan, Sichuan and Jiangxi provinces. It was recorded in Jiaqing that Jiangxi, Hunan, Guizhou and Sichuan had begun to "grow as vegetables".

During Daoguang's reign (1821-1850), the northern part of Guizhou was already in a situation of"every meal must be filled with peppers". The rice wrapped in grain was popular in Tongzhi. The dish used mostly bean curd, that is, water soaked salt and sea pepper, which was used to dip in water, a little like the sea pepper dip in Sichuan Fushun bean curd today.

In some areas of Hunan, hot pepper was not very common during the Jiaqing period, but it was more common among Daoguang, Xianfeng, Tongzhi and Guangxu. According to the Qing barnyard banknotes in the late Qing Dynasty, "people in Yunnan, Guizhou, Hunan and Sichuan loved spicy food", "people in Hunan and Hubei liked spicy food", and "people in Hunan and Hubei could not eat spicy food without pepper and mustard, so there was plenty of soup", indicating that people in Hunan and Hubei had become accustomed to spicy food in the late Qing Dynasty, and they even put pepper into soup.

The record of edible pepper in Sichuan was later than Hubei’s. Neither in the book of Yongzheng's Sichuan Tongzhi nor Jiaqing's Sichuan Tongzhi recorded the cultivation and eating of pepper, and the earliest recorded pepper may be in Jiaqing. From the perspective of the areas where pepper was planted and eaten in Jiaqing, Sichuan, they are mainly located in the Chengdu Plain and the Daba Mountains area in the south and southwest of Sichuan and the borders of Sichuan, Hubei and Shaanxi. After Daoguang, Xianfeng and Tongzhi, Sichuan's edible chilies began to become popular, and even chilies were "planted all over the mountains" in Sichuan. After Guangxu, Sichuan's edible chili was more common. In addition to being widely eaten, there were a lot of records of eating chili in the classic recipes. According to Fu Chongju's Chengdu Overview in the late Qing Dynasty, there were 1328 kinds of dishes in Chengdu at that time. Pepper has become one of the main condiments in Sichuan cuisine, including hot oil sea pepper, sea pepper noodles, etc., especially the double cooked pork in Sichuan cuisine was officially recorded in written records. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, eating pepper has become an important feature of Sichuan people's diet. Xu Xinyu's Records of Traveling in Sichuan recorded that "Sichuan people must choose the most spicy ones to eat, and every meal and dish must be hot."

When did Yunnan begin to eat spicy food? Zhenxiong, Yunnan, which is close to Guizhou, ate hot pepper during the Qianlong Period, but it was not very common in Yunnan during the Qianjia Period. There was no record of chilli in the Tongzhi of Yunnan during the Guangxu period, but people began to eat chilli in large quantities as early as the Guangxu period. According to the Records of Visiting Sichuan by Xu Xinyu in the late Qing Dynasty, his father found in Ya'an that the chili peppers transported into Yunnan every year through Ya'an, Sichuan, were "quantity is nearly hundreds of thousands. The amount of chili peppers eaten by Yunnan people is not less than that of Sichuan people". Therefore, Xu Ke's Qing barnyard banknote at the end of the Qing Dynasty said: "Yunnan, Guizhou, Hunan and Sichuan people are fond of spicy food." According to the records in the Textual Research on the Names and Facts of Plants, edible chili peppers had been planted in Jiangxi during the Jiaqing period. During the Guangxu period, edible chili peppers had become more common in Jiangxi, and now Jiangxi Nankang chili sauce is very famous.

Pepper has been introduced into China for about 400 years, but this foreign spice soon became popular all over China, taking the position of traditional Chinese prickly ash, ginger and cornus officinalis. The consumption of Chinese prickly ash was squeezed into Sichuan Basin, the hometown of Chinese prickly ash. Cornus officinalis almost completely withdrew from the stage of Chinese food spice, and the position of ginger was largely withdrawn from the diet. The introduction of chili into Chinese food is undoubtedly a food revolution. The powerful chili makes it impossible for any traditional spice to compete with it. The revolution was only a little slow due to the constraints of traffic and information at that time.

What about court dishes?
one book records the dishes used to celebrate the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month, including "Spicy Rabbit". However, there was no detailed description of what kind of dish it was. In the following Qing Dynasty, a dish named "Spicy Rabbit Silk" also appeared in Tioding Collection. Shredded chicken soup simmer, add yellow rice wine, soy sauce, onion, ginger juice, Chinese prickly ash, and soybean powder to finish the soup.

No pepper is used, but pepper is added, so the name of the dish has the word "spicy". It should have the same taste as the "spicy" in the "spicy live rabbit" in the "Records of Drinking". There are two kinds of flavors without chilli. As for whether rabbit meat is used, why the dish is called "Spicy Rabbit" is an unsolved mystery. In the Records of Drinking, dozens of famous dishes in the imperial court are listed. In addition to the aforementioned "Spicy Rabbit", there is also a dish called "Spicy Soup", which is a soup to drink every morning to prevent cold in November. Nowadays, ginger soup is often drunk to prevent cold. The "hot soup" here may be of the same type. As for other places where pepper is used, none of them has been found.

===Conclusion===
Even in the Qing Dynasty, pepper still did not enter the court. The Manchu people did not even have the habit of eating mustard seeds. "A Dream of Red Mansions" describes the dishes made of vinegar, as well as various other cooking methods, but hot dishes never appeared.

===Introduction===
In the 5,000 years of Chinese culture, music has slowly flowed with the history to modern times. Whenever you hear an ancient rhythm, it is like going back in time to the days of small bridges and flowing water and talented people. This is our own Chinese beauty. The Rites of Zhou states that ancient Chinese musical instruments can be divided into the "eight tones" - gold, stone, earth, leather, silk, wood, lagen and bamboo. The chime is a representative of "gold", and is also known as a "national treasure"! Emerging from a time of turmoil, it has been passed down for thousands of years.
The chime is an ancient traditional percussion instrument made of bronze, with a combination of flat round bells of different sizes, each with a different pitch. In two dimensions, the chimes are narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, with uneven edges around the mouth. Most of the chimes are beautifully carved and decorated, or lined with elaborate drums, which are known as bell-nipples.

First appearing in the Shang dynasty, the chime was born in the midst of chaos and was popularised in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States, where it remained in use until the Ming and Qing dynasties. It can be said to have emerged from the chaotic times and to have been handed down for thousands of years. The early chimes were mostly made up of three or five pieces, and could play simple old tunes.

The chimes of the Ming and Qing dynasties were completely different from the traditional chimes, not only in form but also in tone, and by this time the music of the chimes had long since lost the majesty and coolness of the chimes. Chimes were generally used for courtly music, and in the early days, they were used for major occasions such as conquests, banquets and rituals, so that in ancient times they were also a symbol of status and power, and only the ruler had the right to use them. In the Poetic Edda, there is a phrase that refers to the chimes: "I use the chimes and drums of music to please my fair lady", and they were also used in large banquets and dances.

Most of the chimes from the Western Zhou period are oval in shape with a narrow top and a wide bottom, and a large number of performance scores were recorded on the bodies of the chimes, the ultimate purpose of which was to facilitate rehearsal and performance, and which accidentally became the carrier of chime culture. From the Qin dynasty onwards the chimes gradually pursued aesthetic appearance, neglecting the effect of the sound itself, and the Qing dynasty's lack of attention to ritual and music led to the gradual loss of many of the finest bronze chime casting techniques. During the Han dynasty, chimes fell into decline, and although they were still a symbol of the status of the emperor, they were far removed from the chimes of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, and were even inferior to those of the pre-Qin period in terms of silencing. After more than 500 years at its peak, the chimes still went into decline.

From the Song dynasty onwards, foreign musical instruments flowed in and other traditional instruments emerged, gradually eliminating chimes from court performance, and by the Qing dynasty they were shaped into mere decorative objects that could not be played. The art of bell casting was lost from the Song dynasty, but when the Zeng Houyi Chimes were unearthed, the Chinese Cultural Affairs Bureau set up the Zeng Houyi Chimes Reproduction Research Group, which succeeded in reproducing a full set of Zeng Houyi Chimes in 1984, and the technology of bell casting came back to light.The recovery of the chime casting technique has led to an increasing focus on the preservation and promotion of traditional culture.

Mr. Robert, husband of the famous female singer Ms. Gong Linna, first saw a replica of the Zeng Houyi Chimes in 2005 and heard the sound of the chimes live, the teacher was instantly blown away, after which he became addicted to chime music and couldn't help himself, wanting to successfully put chime music symbols in modern society, creating "Mountain Ghost" in 2007, and in 2009, with the help of the Hong Kong Orchestra and the National Orchestra Together, they created "Bell Music and Harmony". In 2018, Ms. Gong Linna and Robert used chimes to perfectly interpret Qu Yuan's "Li Sao" on the programme "Classics Flow", allowing the ancient sound that had been dormant for thousands of years to appear on modern television programmes and allowing audiences across the country to appreciate the charm of chimes.

At the Shanghai World Expo the chimes were the face of modern music, and Professor Kong Fan from the University of Science and Technology of China brought his research team to the Shanghai Expo to combine the chimes with modern technology to create a magnetic levitation chime that was a breath of fresh air. With a strong magnet made of rare earth roundness in each chime, which determines the levitating position of the bronze chimes through high speed detection thousands of times per second, this group of magnetically levitated chimes has once again amazed the world.

===Conclusion===
The sound of chimes, which has been flowing in history for 2,500 years, has finally reappeared through modern technology, presenting us with a visual feast. Among the four ancient civilisations, Chinese culture is the most completely preserved, adapting and surviving in modern times to the last, all of which, apart from the research led by scientists, is inseparable from the many, many heirs and lovers of traditional culture. In this age of colourfulness and diversity, traditional culture deserves its place too!

===Introduction===
Live streaming was not initially a product of the network. In The Radio and Television Dictionary, live streaming refers to the post-synthesis and broadcast of radio programs at the same time, and live television broadcast is the broadcast method of producing and broadcasting television programs simultaneously with the occurrence and development process of events.” It can be seen that live streaming firstly appeared on traditional media radio and television stations.
On January 1, 2008, the General Office of the State Council put forward a notice proposing to promote the integration of the Three Networks (telecommunication network, computer network and cable TV network). Until today, the integration of the three networks has experienced twelve years of development. Under the background of the continuous progress of interconnection technology, cell phone has been transformed from a simple communication tool to a multifunctional device integrating communication, TV watching and the internet access. With the increasing number of cell phones, the number of cell phone users also continues to go high, providing support for the development of cell phone live steaming. Taking advantage of a large number of live streaming platforms, the connotation of network live streaming also transformed from the early program broadcast into the broadcast of life scenes that the general public can participate in, which is a leap forward.
===Categories of Living Streaming===
(1)According to the main body of live streaming, it can be divided into star live streaming, net celebrity live streaming and common people live streaming. Star live is held by actors, athletes and other celebrities with a certain degree of fame and attention in the mass media, the audience of star live is mainly fans. The purpose of star live is often to let fans see the daily life of the stars to close the distance. Net celebrity live is held by the network celebrities who have become popular in micro blogging, short video platform or other social platforms, and some of them are professional anchors. As opposed to stars and net celebrities, the rest of the ordinary anchors who do not have great influence and attention are collectively referred to as common people live.
(2)According to the live content, live streaming can be generally divided into four categories: live show, live game, live pan-life broadcast and live streaming sale. Show live is the earliest type of live streaming, and it requires the anchors to show their talents. Game live is about electronic games, and most of them are competitive games and it has a certain threshold for both parties - the game anchor is generally required to be proficient or at least familiar with the game being broadcast; the audience is at least aware of the game, otherwise they cannot participate well in the live viewing. Pan-life live streaming refers to the live streaming that shows daily life, where the anchor simply sings, casually chats, eats and shows their daily life. It is live and casual and with no rehearsal, and anyone with a device can become an anchor by registering an account. As the fastest growing type of live streaming since 2016, pan-life live streaming is leading the wave of live streaming with a “mobile live for all” approach. Live streaming sale is an emerging commercial activity which aims to sale goods, and it is all about introduction and exhibition of products.
===Patterns of Interaction in Live Streaming===
(1)Get connected: anchor to anchor interaction
This is a way of interaction between two anchors to achieve a more interesting live broadcast and share fans through a common broadcasting room. It is to connect the live rooms of two hosts, and the way to get connected is that the host can choose to connect with a host they are familiar with or be randomly matched by the system. For viewers, they can see both hosts on the same live screen at the same time. The anchors will chat, sing, play games and so on to make the live streaming more interesting, and at the same time the anchor will also recommend their own fans to pay attention to the other anchor. The fans watching the live broadcast do not have the loyalty between traditional idols and fans, so the anchors can achieve the purpose of sharing fans and maximizing benefits.
(2)Pop-ups and gifts: fan-anchor interaction
The explosive growth of User Generated Content (UGC) attracts large-scale internet users to join the content interaction, and “gifts and pop-ups” constitute the basic ecology of live streaming culture. Pop-ups gives fans an opportunity to express their emotions, and gifts is another important way for fans to interact with anchors, which first existed in original literature websites, and then was introduced as an innovative payment function by self-media and gradually introduced by major platforms.
(3)Melt media interaction: the establishment of cross-platform fan group
Senior anchors do not limit themselves to interacting with their fans briefly on the live platform, but will establish WeChat or QQ fan groups to achieve cross-platform interaction. The establishment of fan groups can make the interaction between fans and anchors more intimate. The fan groups of popular anchors have certain requirements in terms of access qualifications, such as the amount of bounty, frequency of interaction, etc., and anchors will also use fan groups to give back to their fans, such as more interaction, red packets or other benefits.
===Conclusion===
On the one hand, live streaming has brought many beneficial effects to people’s lives. People have a new way to learn and express themselves. And also its platform advantages can make it a disseminator of excellent culture and promote people towards cultural confidence and cultural self-awareness.
On the other hand, the trend of network live entertainment is obvious, and overly entertaining and vulgarized content is popping up, which to some extent hinders the spread and popularization of socialist core values. Therefore, restrictions should be taken to standardize live streaming.

===Introduction===
I. Origin and Development of Imagery in Chinese Classical Poems

Imagery is the soul and the core of the Chinese classical poetry. Based on the actual experiences and feelings, imagery exceeds the simple physical image, and it’s a reflection of the poet's imagination and divergence thinking. In Chinese literary tradition, the expression “Yi Xiang”(意象) has existed since ancient times, and it “has long been a concern of Chinese poetry from its very beginning.” (Pauline Yu 1987,3) It’s used to “denote a verbal expression that evokes a mental picture or recalls a physical sensation, not necessarily visual” (James Y. Liu 1962,101) Actually, the imagery and its theoretical system have undergone three upgrades, and then gradually developed into the one we’re familiar with, i.e. the objective things in poetry fusing the poet's subjective feelings and aspirations.

The first theoretical promotion occurred in the Pre-Qin times, based on Zhuangzi’s “words don’t exhaust meaning” and “The Sages established the images to give fullness of the concepts in their minds” in Commentaries on the Book of Changes (Stephen Owen 1992,31). In Wei and Jin Dynasties, the second promotion was marked by Wang Bi’s further illustration on the triadic structure of “the concept in mind”(意), “images”(象) and “words”(言) in his book Elucidation of the Images(《明象》), which indicates that words exists for images, and images for the concept in mind. It was Liu Xie in Han Dynasty who exactly introduced image into literary and endowed it with aesthetic connotation, which signals the third theoretical promotion. In his book Carving a Dragon with a Literary Mind, Liu stated “a uniquely discerning carpenter wield his axe with his eye to the concept-image”.

II. Interpretation of Typical Imageries

1. Botanical Imagery

1) Willow
Willow is always employed to express sentiment attached to parting. In Han Dynasty, there formed the custom of “breaking off a willow branch for leave-taking”. The pronunciation of “柳” in Chinese is similar with “留”, which means “(want someone) to stay”, endowing the willow with sensibilities of missing someone or the sadness of departure.

2) Wutong trees
Wutong, also known as plane or Chinese parasol, is closely associated with autumn and a melancholy mood. Wutong usually conveys a sense of grief and desolation. And the half dead wutong can be compared to the middle-aged widower or widow.

3) Chrysanthemum
Blooming in autumn, the Chrysanthemum often symbolizes loftiness, constancy, integrity and nobility of a character as well as a secluded life, especially in Tao Yuanming’s poems.
By the way, some botanical imageries, such as bamboo, pine trees and plum-blossom, share similar symbolic meaning to some extent.

2. Animal Imagery

1) Cuckoo

Cuckoo, also named “子规” or “子鹃” in Chinese, is associated with farewell because its call sounds like the pronunciation of “不如归去”(bùrúguīqù), which means “It’s better to return.” Wandering travelers far away from hometown will be touched when hearing such sounds, which evoke their distress and homesickness. Moreover, when departing with friends or relatives, people are always sorrowful, hoping they can soon return.

2) Crane
For one thing, the natural image of the crane, full of vitality and soaring in the sky, often embodies the poet’s yearning for a free and secluded life. For another, the crane symbolizes longevity and mourning, showing poet’s life-worrying consciousness. Additionally, as an important cultural icon of Taoism, the crane is associate with immortality, which reflects the holiness of Taoism and the religious ideal of pursuing the freedom and the eternity.

3) Swallow
Swallows are migratory birds whose return heralds the coming of spring. Therefore, swallow imagery, firstly, is to render the poet's appreciation of the pleasant spring. Besides, swallows often appear in pairs in people’s houses or under the eaves, hence two swallows embody an enviable love or love-sickness. Finally, in some poems, the swallow represents the poet’s indignation about vicissitudes of the past as well as the country’s subjugation and destruction.

3. Inanimate Imagery

1) Moon
The moon, with various appellations in Chinese, such as “玉弓”, “银盘”, “婵娟”, etc., is one of the most commonly-used imageries in Chinese poetry. It implicates the general Chinese national mentality and denotes the obscured illusions of the Chinese spiritual homestead. The moon implies homesickness, especially when it is full, which symbolizes a perfect home life or a happy union. On the contrary, a waning moon indicates destitution or separation. Even today, those who are far from home would feel homesick and forlorn at the sight of the moon, just like the writer of “Still Night Thought”.

2) River
In China, the Yangtze River and the Yellow River are two main rivers, which originates from the southwest of China hence flowing eastward. So the imagery of river appears always accompanied with words “flowing eastward”. Sometimes poets use it as a metaphor for a moral, hermetic life, obstruction or time. Also, it’s a symbol of separation with sadness, because in ancient China poets usually send their friends or families off by the riverside.

3) East wind and west wind
Due to geographical factors, “east wind” in China, as a sign of spring, brings warmth and speeds the greening of plants and spurs love. Conversely, “west wind” in China symbolizes chilly coldness in winter, which is connected with something bleak and desolate.

===Conclusion===
There’re three major theoretical upgrades before the imagery theory we understand today gradually formed. Due to its rich connotations, profound philosophy and unique spirit, the proper comprehension of imagery is the key to appreciate and experience the charm of poetry. Moreover, the study of imagery is of great significance to the study of Chinese classical literature as well as the inheritance of Chinese traditional culture.

===Introduction===
The Chinese people consider tigers as power, luck, righteousness, valour and vigour in their country, so they use anything about tiger to avoid disasters. From the ancient China, “tiger culture” has begun to spread.
At the beginning, tiger culture was originated from totems. During Yin and Zhou Dynasty, our ancestors engraved tiger patterns on bronze wares; In the military dimensions, the emperors used Military Tiger Talisman(虎符) to move their military troops, and it also means the sovereign power of the ruling class; The ancient people also engraved tiger patterns on eaves and used those eaves to build houses, which means their houses peaceful and auspicious; During Chinese New Year, the Chinese people not only paste “Door God” on their doors, but also paste pictures of a tiger. In folk, Chinese parents make tiger head shoes for their children, because “The folk believes that ‘dog doesn’t eat dog’(虎毒不食子). For the safety and healthy growth of children, people make tiger-faced shoes and hats to knock on luck, drive away evil and avoids evil.” (Liu Jia, 2010, 201) Therefore, tiger-faced shoes play the role in Chinese culture: to bring luck and auspiciousness, to prevent disasters from children, and to make a hope that children could grow up healthily and happily.
===Origin===
The origin of tiger-faced shoes, or Hutou Xie, can date back to the Stone Age.There are a lot of fairy tales about tiger-faced shoes. According to Quan Yue(2022, 148-151), once upon a time, a young boatman whose surname is Shi lived on the bank of the Yellow River, and he helped the local residents cross the river every day. One day, an old lady in a hurry to cross the river to ask a midwife to give a birth to her daughter-in-law’s child. However, Unexpectedly that the old lady was dizzy when her was on the boat, so the young boatman had to help the old woman to ask a midwife alone. Then the second day, on the birth of her grandson, the old lady sent a painting to the young boatman as a present for his kindness.
In that painting, there was a beautiful girl. And the next day, the beautiful girl became a real girl standing in front of the boatman, and then, they got married. Several years later, a local official wanted to rob of the beauty, so the girl ran into the picture again. Then the official roared to the picture: “if you do not out, I will break you into pieces!” The girl was extremely afraid.
While at the boatman’s home, the old lady made a pair of red shoes which shaped like a tiger’s head to the boatman’s son, and said: “Putting on the pair of red shoes to save you mom!.” After that, the little boy ran to save his mom, and when he came in the official’s home, he was angry and suddenly, his shoes became a fierce tiger! The tiger ate the official in one bite, and finally, the boy saved his mom. The family reunited happily. This is one of the origin of tiger head shoes.
===Design===
In most areas of China, the main colors of tiger-faced shoes are red and yellow. While tailors sew the mouth, nose and eyes of the tiger with thick threads. “When making tiger-faced shoes, some people like decorating tigers’ eyes and ears with rabbit fur. With three colors of red, yellow and white, the tiger-faced shoes look vivid.”(Xu Xiren, 2017, 144) At the same time, different people use different colors to decorate the shoes. For example, the Han people often use yellow cloth to decorate tiger head shoes, while the Yi people like using white cloth.
As to the appearance of tiger-faced shoes, in general, the appearance of a pair of tiger-faced shoes is tiger-liked pattern, on which has eyes, mouth, nose and beard. While in different places, tiger patterns on shoes have slight differences, for example, “In north China, the design of tiger head is more exaggerated and more rugged, while in abundant Jiangnan, the design is more delicate.”(Wang Chenlin, 2019, 69) Chen Hui also described that in Henan province, tiger head shoes have rough shape and strong local flavor; in Shandong province, the head of shoes is more prone to be like cat head, lion head or dragon head.(Chen Hui, 2017, 192)
===Implied meaning and value===
In traditional Chinese culture, people attach great importance to their children. Parents hope their children will have bright future and also, they hope they can be taken good care of by their kids when they are old. So parents have high expectations for their kids.
When children are little babies, their parents use kinds of ways which might be superstitious to protect them from dangers. For example, when a baby is born, the first person who holds the baby is serious in China, because the Chinese people think the behavior will pass good luck, a healthy body and so on to the kid, so they require the person who is the first to hold their new-born baby is of good health and good fortune and so on.
Therefore, tiger-faced shoes are of the same significance for Chinese parents. Tiger, the king of beasts, has the implied meaning of good luck and power in China, so parents make tiger-shoes for their little baby to prevent dangers, bad luck and disease. Meanwhile, according to Yin Zhuoran, he said a pair of tiger-faced shoes “有鼻子有眼” (has a nose and big eyes), which means the one who wears it is a complete and healthy person.(Yin Zhuoran, 2010, 185) Yang Xueqin also referred to that “In folk art, women's fabric products, embroidery, paper cut and other designs, follow the idea symbolized by the metaphor, and are subject to the wishes of happiness and luck...”(Yang Xueqin, 1990, 179) Such statements implied that those who wear tiger head shoes will be a healthy, auspicious and happy person.
Also, the shape of the shoes is matched with children’s growing feet, letting children walking freely.
Tigers have strong life, and the Chinese people praise highly of it, which can be shown in some Chinese idioms such as “生龙活虎” “如龙似虎” “龙腾虎跃” (all of these idioms mean someone has vitality and vigour) and so on. All of these idioms contain a high appreciation for tigers, so parents hope their new-born babies have strong life just like tigers. Also, tigers have a positive impression in Chinese people’s hearts, so they also hope their kids could have the same good characters with tigers in the world.
===Conclusion===
As a part of traditional Chinese culture, tiger-faced shoes has been handed down by the Chinese people from generation to generation, and people innovate it in different ways. Ding Xiaojia once mentioned in his article: “Tiger shaped pillow and tiger-shaped earthenware are very like modeling of tiger-head shoes in spirit. People are using another way to express their respect for tiger-head shoes’ auspicious meaning.”(Ding Xiaojia, 2015, 628) The combination of traditional craftsmanship with constant innovation has kept the vitality of tiger-faced shoes. And with the shoes, Chinese parents place the best wishes on their children. so, in today’s world, it is important for us to inherit and spread the culture of tiger-faced shoes, as well as making innovation constantly. Only doing these will our fine traditional Chinese culture flourish.

<center>Zhang Yuyan张玉燕,202270081681</center>
===Abstract===
Horseface skirt (also named mamianqun or mamianzhequn) is one of the main skirt styles of ancient China. Originated from the Song Dynasty, flourished in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, horseface skirt is inherited and favored by people all over the world. Therefore, I’d like to devote this article to introducing horseface skirt so that readers can learn something about its history, structure, patterns and colors, thus bringing it to the world.

===中国马面裙===
===摘要===
马面裙又名“马面褶裙”，是中国古代裙式的主要代表之一。它源于宋代，盛于明清，延续至今，受到无数人的青睐。在此，我想借此文介绍马面裙，让读者了解其发展历史、结构特征、图案纹样、色彩搭配等，使中国的马面裙走向世界。
===关键词===
马面裙、历史发展、结构特征、图案纹样、色彩搭配

===Introduction===
When it comes to “horseface skirt (also mamianqun)”, you may be amazed by its name. So why is it called that? Some people believe that it’s because the skirt doors look quite similar to “mamian”, which refers to the defensive structure of the ancient city wall. While others think that its middle skirt door, which is a rectangle, is like a long horse face. Therefore, this part of skirt is named as “mamian”, and the skirt itself is called mamianqun (also horseface skirt) (Cai Liming 1993,379).

The word “Ma Mian” first appeared in the ''Ming Palace''(Qi Ziyu 2012，2). And the history of horseface skirt can be traced back to “spin skirt” in the Song Dynasty. So, what’s spin skirt? Actually, it is a functional dress designed for women’s donkey riding. Meng Hui said, “This type of Song skirt is composed of two equal but independent trains. When making a skirt, the two parts are partially stacked together and sewn to the waist (Caoxue,Wang Qunshan 2016,109).” Because of its shape and structure, it’s considered to be the embryonic form of horseface skirt. In Ming Dynasty, the horseface skirt gradually formed. With its simple style and beautiful color, it impressed people with its elegance. From the royal nobles to the common people, everyone wore horseface skirts. However, in terms of the texture, decoration, and color, there were strict differences among classes. Since the foundation of the Qing Dynasty, horseface skirt evolved from a general skirt for men and women to a skirt only for women, and more forms appeared, such as pleated skirt, yuehua skirt, and fengwei skirt. In the 21st century, to some extent, the rise of Hanfu movement has once again promoted horseface skirt, and it’s still favored by world people.

====The Structure of Horseface Skirt====
“The Yi (the upper garment) and Shang (the lower skirt)”is one of the clothing forms in Chinese civilization, and horseface skirt is a kind of “Shang”, which is mainly composed of four parts, namely, the skirt door, the skirt flank, the skirt couplet and the waistband. There are 4 skirt doors at the front, back, inside and outside, overlapping each other. The two skirt flanks refer to the side folds of the skirt. And two skirt couplets are two pieces, which are partially stacked together and sewn to the waist. While the waistband functions to gird the waist with the help of beltloops. It is this special design that allows the wearer to move freely without being too revealing，which reflects the implicit and introverted national temperament of the Chinese nation.

====The Patterns of Horseface Skirt====
Let’s move on, and learn about its patterns! There are two types of horseface skirt patterns -- separate embroidery patterns and large embroidery patterns,among which the separate embroidery patterns account for the majority. Each pattern conveys a different meaning. Taking the animal patterns “dragon” and “phoenix” as an example, in the long history of China, dragon and phoenix are considered to be auspicious. They are seen to be the symbols of prosperity, solemnity and power. Therefore, these patterns are mostly found in the clothes of ancient emperors and their concubines. Taking the pattern of “fish” as another example, fish harmonizes with "Yu"（in mandarin）,which conveys the good meaning of having a surplus for the next year in China. People also embroider some plants and flowers on their horseface skirts, such as our national flower peony, which represents wealth and nobility; the undefiled lotus, which symbolizes purity; the golden chrysanthemum, which represents longevity; and lily, which represents sacredness and holiness, friendship and a bright future (Sun Hui ,Wu Yue 2017,11).

====The Colors of Horseface Skirt====
Generally speaking, in terms of color, horseface skirt can be divided into solid color horse face skirt and colorful horseface skirt (such as yuehua skirt). Horseface skirts are always gorgeous in color, mostly red, followed by blue and other colors(Zhang Pei，Yang Jingyi 2022,80).That’s because the red color represents joy and auspiciousness, which can bring people hopes and wishes for a better life in the future, and give them a sense of happiness. Therefore, it seems that Chinese people naturally love the red color instead of some other dark colors, such as black. Nowadays, young and creative designers are making the horseface skirt more colorful, beautiful and attractive. They are very skillful at striking a wonderful balance between cold and warm colors, and pay attention to the contrast of colors with different brightness and purity, thus making more peoplef fall in love with horseface skirt.

===Conclusion===
The horseface skirt did originate from China and has a very long history. While in July, Dior appropriated Chinese horseface skirt culture and insisted that its collection was an original design, which infuriated Chinese students who took to the streets to protest, demanding respect for Chinese culture. It is this event that prompts me to write this passage. And I know the passage maybe not comprehensive due to the limitation of words, but I still sincerely hope that readers can gain something from it, such as its development history, structure, etc. And I hope more people will love Chinese horseface skirt and spread it to the world.

That’s all! Thank you for your careful reading!

==The Rise of ‘China Chic’: A Case Study of Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games==
<center>周晓兰 Zhou Xiaolan,202270081682.</center>
===Abstract===
‘China Chic’ is a term that describes the trend of China-centric design, incorporating unique cultural elements into the latest trends. With the growing popularity of China’s native fashion trends, more young people are paying attention to traditional Chinese culture. And the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games can be seen as a good example of how the world has embraced China Chic. This paper focuses on the rise of China Chic, taking Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games as an example.
===Key Words===

===题目===
“国潮”之崛起：以2022北京冬奥会为例
===摘要===
“国潮”将独特的中国文化元素融入最新潮流，代表着以中国文化为中心的设计趋势。随着中国本土时尚潮流的日益流行，越来越多的年轻人开始关注中国传统文化。而2022北京冬奥会恰如其分地展现了国潮正在融入世界潮流。本文将以2022北京冬奥会为例，探究国潮之崛起。
===关键词===
国潮，中国传统文化，北京冬奥会
===Introduction===
China Chic, or Guochao, is a new type of youth culture with ‘China’ as the core, ‘Chic’ as the expression, ‘culture + technology’ as the driving force, and ‘integration + innovation’ as the main direction of development(Cao Wenfang 2022, 92). And the impact of China Chic has been expanded across various categories, including obvious ones like fashion and cosmetics, and others like architecture, technology, automobiles, and so on. As it develops, China Chic increasingly manifests Chinese people’s ambition of reviving traditional heritage in a modern context and reflecting the profound pride in their national identity (Coco Wu, Harry Kinnear, Maya Madhusoodan, 2020). Incorporating unique cultural elements into the latest trends, Beijing Winter Olympics serves as a good example of the rise of China Chic. China took the chance to introduce its most distinctive cultural elements, through the Games’ logo, mascot, ceremonies and so on. And this paper will introduce the China Chic in the event, through Games’ opening ceremony, mascot, and sports clothing.
===The 24 Solar Terms in the Opening Ceremony===
The 24 solar terms, having been developed throughout Chinese history since about 3,000 years ago and listed on the UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2016, are so important to Chinese people that it appears both creative and natural for Zhang Yimou to employ and showcase them as a unique part of Chinese civilization to the world (Yang Yang, 2022). Hailed as China’s fifth greatest invention, the solar terms developed by ancient Chinese as a calendar to guide agricultural production and reflect some natural phenomena and human life.

The opening ceremony started with a countdown of the 24 solar terms instead of using numbers, delighting the audience, as the first of the 24 solar terms-- “Beginning of Spring” fell on this very day. The countdown of the 24 solar terms shows the unique understanding of Chinese nation towards time. What’s more, Zhang used beautiful poems and proverbs to explain the characteristics of each solar term, while incorporating modern technology to show them in video. Many netizens praised this idea as a show of Chinese Romance. Such combination of traditional culture and modern technology shows the vitality of Chinese culture and the wisdom of Chinese nation.
===Mascot===
Being eyecatchers that help create an Olympic atmosphere, mascots serve to demonstrate the ideas of the host, and the history and culture of the host country (Yin Ziqiang 2022, 10). Bing Dwen Dwen is the panda mascot for Beijing Winter Olympics. Bing means ice in Mandarin, representing purity and strength. Dwen Dwen means sincerity, health, vitality and loveliness, representing the strong body, tenacious will and inspiring spirit of athletes. As a national emblem for China and a significant symbol for foreigners to learn about China, giant pandas are under first-class protection, revealing core Chinese values of harmony between man and nature.

Bing Dwen Dwen wears a full body shell out of ice which connotes both winter sports and China’s space dream. Its head shell is decorated with flowing bright-colored lines symbolizing the track of winter sports and the 5G technology. What’s more, colorful ribbons and the black and white panda present traditional Chinese aesthetic thought of contrast and unity. Bing Dwen Dwen not only captures the profound cultural heritage, but also shows the Olympic spirit and the development of modern technology.

Thanks to its chubby and lovable look, Bing Dwen Dwen has soon become a smash hit around the world. Bing Dwen Dwen souvenirs have been sold out in online stores and customers have to wait in long lines at offline stores to try their luck. As a new online celebrity representing the Winter Olympics, cute and adorable Bing Dwen Dwen was liked and followed by athletes and journalists from around the world who were incredibly enthusiastic about taking photos with the mascot. Bing Dwen Dwen even became a trending Olympic topic on Twitter, building a bridge of communication across national borders and bringing China Chic to the world.
===Sports Clothing===
During Beijing Winter Olympics, Young athletes wore sports clothing bearing Chinese elements, such as dragons, pandas, tigers, the Great Wall, traditional Chinese painting, and Beijing Opera facial makeup, which surprised world audience. Perfectly combining the functionality, nationality and artistry, the sports clothing can realize the free wearing under the change of temperature and scene, which helps to enhance the performance of Team China (Ma Yan, 2021).

It is worth mentioning that the “golden dragon coat” of Eileen Gu, a rising Chinese sports star, spreads China Chic to the world. The “golden dragon coat” was designed by herself to spread Chinese culture, featuring a golden Chinese Dragon on the reverse of the clothing. Dragon is a symbol of China, and descendants of dragon refer to Chinese nation (Yin Sairui 2022, 50). It reveals the spirit of forging ahead. In Chinese culture, gold symbolizes nobility, brilliance and glory. Therefore, the golden dragon coat serves as a brilliant display of Chinese culture. What’s more, incorporating modern fashion trend in its style, this coat is a perfect example of China Chic. Gu’s spectacular performance in the Olympic Games also offers a great opportunity to show China Chic to the world. And this coat is now in the collection of the Olympic Museum in Lausanne, Switzerland. As a result, more and more people start to pay attention to Chinese fashion brands which present rich culture and traditional elements of China through the intuitive of dressing (Zijing Han, Duo Xu, Rujia Zheng, 2022).
===Conclusion===
Beijing Winter Olympics introduces China Chic to the world and show the vitality of Chinese culture. It also demonstrates that Chinese culture is stepping onto the international stage. Therefore, it is necessary for China to take the advantage of China Chic to spread traditional Chinese culture, turning such youth culture into national culture.

===Introduction===
Chinese were thought not so pet-friendly as Westerners, especially for its notorious dog-eating, and petting is indeed never considered by people home or abroad as a long-prevailing habit of Chinese. In fact, even nowadays petting in China cannot be described as anything related to “popular”. According to 2021 Chinese Pet Industry White Paper, the number of dog-and-cat owners totalled to 68.44 million in 2021 and was expected to increase to 71.68 million which took up only 5.12% of China’s total population. Other “non-traditional” pets, say, birds, other small mammals, reptiles are even rarer to public sight. Even though pet-owner are still a small proportion in China, petting is surely gaining more and more attention publicly and politically.
===Historical Overview of Chinese Petting===
Petting hasn’t been a popular thing since ancient times. For an agricultural country like China, “unpragmatic” animals like dogs and cats used to be quite uncommon because they were not beneficial for farming (Custer, 2021). Nevertheless, there were a few famous pet-lovers documented for their adoration for certain animals. In Pre-Qin periods, the emperor Yi of Wei loved raising cranes. The elegant and purely-white bird was terribly doted on by the emperor Yi who even ranked them with their appearances and qualities and “remunerated” them in accordance with their given “official positions” (Zuo, 2007). Zang Wenzhong, a contemporary of Yi, was obsessed with another unusual animal¬¬—turtles. Like Yi the emperor, Zang cosseted his pets by accommodating the turtles in luxury palaces and that solicited commotion leading to his own doomed end. Interestingly their pampery was harshly chastised by Confucius as a breach of ethical conventions. At that time petting had been exclusive for upper classes with wealth and power who despite the stereotypes of abusing animals pampered their pets with obscene extravagancy. During the Tang Dynasty (AC 618¬¬¬—AC 907) the royal members started raising exotic animals tributed by foreigners as their pets such as elephants, lions, and rhinos in the palace. At the same time petting was gaining popularity among public, and it was presented by the paintings that some people from middle and lower classes had small-sized pets like chicken, dogs, and cats. Animals were no longer merely food resources and pets were more than a time killer but an emotional support and religious and spiritual symbol as well (Li, 2017). Literati would also rest their hopes and sentiments on certain animals in poems. With an increasing demand in petting, a pet-friendly system was also built to condemn the animal-abusers and to compromise who thus lost their pets. In the Ming Dynasty (AC 1368¬¬—AC 1644), Wen Zhenheng recorded then elegant lifestyle of upper literati in his book Zhang Wu Zhi and described their choices of pets in one chapter. In the book Wen deemed pets as “a necessary art for those who live in solitude amongst the hills and woods” (Wen, 2015). By “necessary”, however, Wen meant it for upper class still since the book was written for them. In the Qing Dynasty (AC 1636¬—AC 1912), Man people brought with them nomadic culture and horses and birds were the majority of their choices of pets (She, 2019). In late Qing Dynasty people carrying a bird cage were common to be seen in the teahouses in Beijing as the symbol of their social statue. During the Cultural Revolution in 1960s and 1970s, pets were regarded as the component of the lifestyle of capitalism and therefore strictly forbidden. Pet owners have no choice but to hide, abandon, and even kill their pets. It was surely the most terrible era for pets and their owners. Nowadays in the 21th Century more and more Chinese have pets. Research showed that the pet market in China has increased 60% every year (Pitt, 2021). Analysts also expected that China’s pet industry will multiply 10 times that of a decade ago to 66 billion dollars. Even though petting system in China is still immature and still some people regard pet as emotionless animals, a more convenient society is being built for animal-lovers. Moreover, pets can get new jobs in cat-or-dog café and even make an income on social media. People’s attitude towards pets also changed a lot. Take dogs as example. Chinese used to treat dog as a source of meat. However, today the majority of dogs are viewed as companions and usually treated as family members (Coren, 2018).
===Conclusion===
In conclusion, pets were rare in ancient China, and most people who had pets were those in higher classes. Their pets were uncommon and exotic animals such as birds and fishes instead of dogs and cats. It is since the Tang Dynasty that people from lower classes started to have small animals as pets. However, in ancient times pets gained little popularity in general. In modern times with the increase of middle class and the influence of western culture, people’s attitude towards pets changed and dogs and cats are more accepted by public. Even though China has not been the most pet-friendly country, a mature petting system is now being built.

<center>庄昊康Zhuang Haokang, 202270081713</center>
===Abstract===
Lv Opera, also known as Yangqin and Qinxi Opera, is a national intangible cultural heritage, one of the eight major operas in China, and the most representative local opera in Shandong Province. It is popular in most parts of Shandong Province and parts of Jiangsu, Anhui and Northeast China. It originated in the Yellow River Delta in northern Shandong Province and evolved from Shandong Qinshu. Its music belongs to Banqiang, and it also sings Qupai. The main accompaniment instruments are Zhuiqin (the main string), Yangqin, Sanxian and Pipa, which are called "the four major pieces of Lv Opera".It is deeply loved by the broad masses of the people with its simple and vivid language, beautiful and pleasant singing voice.

===Introduction===
Lv Opera originated in the Yellow River Delta, where the Yan and Zhao cultures, the Sanjin culture and the recent Beijing and Tianjin cultures have merged, making this area a long and colorful history of folk art. Among these arts, "Shuo Shu" is especially popular among the masses, and the storytellers use the local language familiar to the masses to interpret stories that express the emotional life and social patterns of the Qilu people. Huimin County," there is mentioned: "rap music in the lower reaches of the Yellow River in this area is quite prosperous, more than fifty miles southwest of Binzhou not far from the Yellow River there is a Huji village (belonging to Huimin County), where every year to hold a 'book meeting' to Huji as a gathering place, hiring rap artists from around the world to come to sing ". According to local elders, the "Huji Book Fair" was traced back to the Yuan Dynasty, and was even more prosperous in the early Qing Dynasty, and is still an annual event in Huimin. It can be inferred that this "book fair" provided the conditions for the introduction of the qinshu panel style, which also laid the main position of Shandong qinshu in the cultural activities of the Yellow River Delta at that time, and the predecessor of Lv opera sprouted in such an environment.

In terms of the distribution of Lv opera in Shandong Province, the Qinshu is divided into the east, the south and the north to spread. The various documentary sources can be summarized that it was not until around 1913 that Guangrao and Boxing completed the establishment of the board cadence and the mode of make-up performance respectively, which marked the basic formation of the prototype of Lv opera.

The germination of Lv opera is the fruit of the geographical environment, folk customs and folk art traditions of the Yellow River Delta region, and is the crystallization of the wisdom of the working people of Guangrao and Boxing. Lv opera emerged here, flourished here and developed from here, precisely because of the performance form of South Road Qinshu as the foundation, plus the later development and consolidation of East Road and North Road Qinshu, which facilitated the process of the birth of Lv opera.

Because of the connection between Lv opera and Shandong Qinshu, the repertoire of early Lv opera was mostly adapted from Shandong Qinshu, and some of the repertoire was transplanted from other genres. This type of repertoire was mainly based on folklore, and was created orally by the artists of the time according to the local customs and customs. After the test of time, scholars now classify this category of repertoire as "traditional repertoire". After the establishment of New China, according to the national policy of that time, Lv opera also created some new plays in response to the current trend, which are called "modern plays". Lv opera is still being developed, and the plays with historical themes that appear on the stage today are born out of the increasing aesthetic demand of the audience and the national policy of melody. The repertoire of Shandong Lv opera can be divided into three categories: "traditional plays", "modern plays" and "new historical plays".

The singing method of Lv opera is the same for both male and female cavities, but the male cavity is mainly sung in real voice, while the female cavity is sung in a combination of real and falsetto voice, and is five degrees higher than the male cavity. Since Lv opera originated from the art of rapping, there is no distinction between "singing" and "reading" in the performance.

When singing, Lv opera focuses on setting up the cadence with words, bringing the voice with emotion, singing with singing, spitting out words clearly, speaking naturally, and sounding natural and smooth. Compared with the high and aggressive Qin cadence and the soft and distant Kunqu, the singing voice of Lv opera is more lyrical and lingering. It is often used for the glissando, trill and ornamentation, and it is important for the words to be correct. The combination of soft tone, trill, beating tone and overtone of the falling qin makes the whole singing stretching and beautiful. Shandong Lv opera has absorbed the artistic components of the clapper cavity, so it is also based on the board cavity, and its singing voice can be roughly divided into two categories: "Siping cavity" and "two boards".

Lv opera is mostly about small matters between parents and neighbors, so it is rare to see actors doing fighting on the stage of Lv opera, and the plays with more action are only exaggerated renditions of real-life actions. It was only after a large number of new historical dramas were created that more and more martial arts plays were seen on the stage of Lv opera. "Doing" and "fighting" are usually combined with each other in opera performances. The female roles require a higher level of "doing", such as "lying fish", which requires the actor to be skilled in terms of flexibility, balance and waist and leg strength.

After a hundred years of development, Lv Opera has been included in the list of intangible cultural heritage of China and is one of the eight major local operas in China, which can be said to be a small achievement. However, as an important member of Chinese traditional culture, it inevitably encounters various obstacles in the process of development. In order to pass on Lv opera better, it is inevitable that reasonable and effective countermeasures should be formulated in conjunction with the characteristics of the times.

===Conclusion===
The current situation of Lv Opera in Shandong province is not optimistic.Many professional Lv Opera troupes have been gradually renamed or merged,or even completely disappeared.The inheritance of Lv Opera has become increasingly difficult. The younger generation,who genuinely love Lv Opera and perform it,are also less and less.The audience is aging.Based on these conditions,it is not only necessary to carry out the task of promoting traditional culture to individuals,but also requires the government to increase its investment in culture and art, and introduce more effective policies.

==Chinese Culture and A Child’s Education==

<center> Wellsand, Benjamin, 202111080018 </center>

===Abstract===

The social conditions of China have never been more taxing when it comes to a decades-long engrained child education culture and a problematic rapidly aging population. The social constructs of the longstanding loyalty to kinship and interdependence of collectivism within China place a cyclical concern from parent to child as one looks out for the other to ensure a fruitful economic future. The 1950s one-child policy has not only served to slow birth rates but has inadvertently allowed for a significant amount of finances to be set aside for the future of an only child to ensure the desired monetary success. The Chinese Communist Party has recognized the challenges the future of the country faces as a result of past policies and is seeking to revolutionize the education culture in order to permit Chinese families to grow without fear of missing out on a profitable and fulfilling future for the entire family unit. The modern-day CCP and the ancient philosopher, Confucius, align in their understanding of the vital role that the family plays in the future health of Chinese society.

===Introduction===

In Chinese culture, the family name is displayed prominently before the individual’s given name as a clear indicator of the honor given to the family unit and the collective nature by which the individual is viewed within foundational societal institutions. China is a culture that is overtly centered on kinship. “Male offspring were especially valued for their role in carrying on the family name, explains Li Liu of Beijing Normal University, “without a male heir, a family line originating from its ancestors is terminated, and the family’s place in the universe gets lost forever.” (2007: 57) China is world-renown for having the largest population. Beginning in the 1950s, the population grew on a steep trajectory from 540 million to 940 million by 1976. The booming industrialization caused concern of famine and housing shortages as more people were expected to start searching for higher-paying urban jobs as opposed to working on farms. In response to these concerns, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) started limiting births provincially in 1979 and finally standardized the one-child policy in 1980 which limited ethnic Chinese to only one child per couple. The fertility rate dropped from 6.1 in 1990 to 1.16 in 2021. (Master & Zhang 2022)

It is the cultural importance placed upon a male heir to carry on the family name that explains the resulting current skewed sex ratio. (Statista 2021) Charles Kraft shares, “Family and relatives are the big things to [kinship cultures]. Those with family are wealthy (whether or not they have any money).” (1996: 121) Great financial responsibility is placed upon a son’s family who is seeking to find a wife for him. 房子 (house), 车子 (car), and 票子 (money) are viewed as the requirements that should be met in order for a daughter to agree to take a man as her husband. While housing prices have steadied (Aljazeera 2022), the job market continues to be a challenge do to an economic slow from the COVID-19 pandemic. (Bloomberg News 2022)

There is an inordinate amount of competition in children’s education that accompanies these high social demands. Laurie Chen (2018) reports that more than sixty percent of primary school children (up to seventy percent in larger cities) were tutored outside of the classroom and parents paid an average of 120,000 RMB on up to 300,000 RMB for extracurricular education. The 双一流 (Double First-Class Initiative) higher education ranking leaves limited space for academic success. Zhang Duanhong (2019), writes of “the ‘exhausting high school, carefree university’ paradigm, in which university life is treated as a reward for making it through the rigors of the country’s college entrance exam.” The 90 percent graduation rate further limits the space available in universities and increased entry competition. The highly competitive nature in higher education has conditioned both sexes to pursue the greatest quality of education and the highest paid positions obtainable. Students must place their entire life on hold and focus all attention on study.

To ease the high societal demands of childrearing and encourage population growth, the CCP has made significant policy changes in areas such as private education (Koty 2021), maternity leave (Huang & Huang 2021), afterschool childcare (Zhang 2021), along with child subsidies (Ma 2022). Yet it remains an uphill battle to change the social conditioning of a country built around a single-child family. The 鸡娃 (chicken baby) parenting mentality continues on despite best efforts to curb this longstanding trend. (Feng 2021) Private education has not disappeared but has simply undergone a transformation as is the case with English tutors turned online product salespeople. (Jia 2022) Private education companies are believed to shift as well from educators to a rebranding as providers of AI products, software, and services for public education institutions. (Knox 2021)

The philosopher, Confucius, upon whose teaching pillars Chinese society is built, was a strong advocate of the family. He recognized human flourishing occurring within five complex relationships and three of these are familial: father/son, elder/younger brother, and husband/wife. Confucius felt that it was “in the context of the family that we acquire the building blocks for navigating the wildly complex relational networks that comprise human society.” (Ten Elshof, 2015: 14) Filial piety is no surprise in the face of a culture that centers on the family. Liu explains, “Filial piety is more than just showing filial obedience to parents: most importantly, it indicates raising sons to support aging parents and having sons to continue the family line.” (2007: 56) This too is a practice that finds support within Confucianism as a “value that calls on adult children to fulfill obligations to respect, obey, support, and care for elderly parents.” (Shea, Moore, & Zhang, 2020: 29) 养儿防老 (to bring up children for the purpose of being looked after in old age) is the Chinese parental motto that shows the expectations placed upon the children to care for their aging parents. Caring for the aged will only increase in difficulty as the average age of Chinese citizens rises. (Campbell 2019) Further exacerbating the age demographic phenomena is that this comes on the heels of the one-child policy that leaves two sets of aging parents on the shoulders of one married couple. Tang Youcai and Jeanne Shea discovered that those coming from rural areas “have both higher proportions of elderly folks and lower levels of economic development.” (2020: 92)

===Conclusion===

A collective, kinship country that is culturally conditioned to associate the wellbeing and preservation of the family with social and economic success finds itself in the face of a challenging future. The CCP is working tirelessly to show it supports and recognizes the need for the Chinese family, only that it has one major issue with it: its size. The battle for the family that started in Confucius’s day continues in the present. The academic atmosphere that crescendos at standardized testing (Li 2019) and a highly competitive job market that leaves even college graduates in a tight spot (Pike 2022) places the child’s education at front and center in the battle for social survival. The weight of the future of China predictably rests, from a cultural perspective, on the shoulders of the family unit.

===Introduction===
Pepper was introduced into China from America at the end of the Ming Dynasty, but at first it was only used as ornamental crops and medicines. In the early Qing Dynasty, Guizhou and its neighboring areas were the first to eat chili. In Guizhou, where salt was scarce, during the reign of Emperor Kangxi (1662-1722), "soil seedlings were used to replace salt". Pepper played a role in replacing salt, which shows that it is closely related to life. From the Qianlong period (1736-1795), a large number of hot peppers were eaten in Guizhou. During the reign of Qianlong, Zhenxiong, Yunnan, which was adjacent to Guizhou, and Chenzhou Prefecture, Hunan, in the east of Guizhou, also began to eat chili. After Jiaqing (1796-1820), pepper was widely planted in Guizhou, Hunan, Sichuan and Jiangxi provinces. It was recorded in Jiaqing that Jiangxi, Hunan, Guizhou and Sichuan had begun to "grow as vegetables".

During Daoguang's reign (1821-1850), the northern part of Guizhou was already in a situation of"every meal must be filled with peppers". The rice wrapped in grain was popular in Tongzhi. The dish used mostly bean curd, that is, water soaked salt and sea pepper, which was used to dip in water, a little like the sea pepper dip in Sichuan Fushun bean curd today.

In some areas of Hunan, hot pepper was not very common during the Jiaqing period, but it was more common among Daoguang, Xianfeng, Tongzhi and Guangxu. According to the Qing barnyard banknotes in the late Qing Dynasty, "people in Yunnan, Guizhou, Hunan and Sichuan loved spicy food", "people in Hunan and Hubei liked spicy food", and "people in Hunan and Hubei could not eat spicy food without pepper and mustard, so there was plenty of soup", indicating that people in Hunan and Hubei had become accustomed to spicy food in the late Qing Dynasty, and they even put pepper into soup.

The record of edible pepper in Sichuan was later than Hubei’s. Neither in the book of Yongzheng's Sichuan Tongzhi nor Jiaqing's Sichuan Tongzhi recorded the cultivation and eating of pepper, and the earliest recorded pepper may be in Jiaqing. From the perspective of the areas where pepper was planted and eaten in Jiaqing, Sichuan, they are mainly located in the Chengdu Plain and the Daba Mountains area in the south and southwest of Sichuan and the borders of Sichuan, Hubei and Shaanxi. After Daoguang, Xianfeng and Tongzhi, Sichuan's edible chilies began to become popular, and even chilies were "planted all over the mountains" in Sichuan. After Guangxu, Sichuan's edible chili was more common. In addition to being widely eaten, there were a lot of records of eating chili in the classic recipes. According to Fu Chongju's Chengdu Overview in the late Qing Dynasty, there were 1328 kinds of dishes in Chengdu at that time. Pepper has become one of the main condiments in Sichuan cuisine, including hot oil sea pepper, sea pepper noodles, etc., especially the double cooked pork in Sichuan cuisine was officially recorded in written records. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, eating pepper has become an important feature of Sichuan people's diet. Xu Xinyu's Records of Traveling in Sichuan recorded that "Sichuan people must choose the most spicy ones to eat, and every meal and dish must be hot."

When did Yunnan begin to eat spicy food? Zhenxiong, Yunnan, which is close to Guizhou, ate hot pepper during the Qianlong Period, but it was not very common in Yunnan during the Qianjia Period. There was no record of chilli in the Tongzhi of Yunnan during the Guangxu period, but people began to eat chilli in large quantities as early as the Guangxu period. According to the Records of Visiting Sichuan by Xu Xinyu in the late Qing Dynasty, his father found in Ya'an that the chili peppers transported into Yunnan every year through Ya'an, Sichuan, were "quantity is nearly hundreds of thousands. The amount of chili peppers eaten by Yunnan people is not less than that of Sichuan people". Therefore, Xu Ke's Qing barnyard banknote at the end of the Qing Dynasty said: "Yunnan, Guizhou, Hunan and Sichuan people are fond of spicy food." According to the records in the Textual Research on the Names and Facts of Plants, edible chili peppers had been planted in Jiangxi during the Jiaqing period. During the Guangxu period, edible chili peppers had become more common in Jiangxi, and now Jiangxi Nankang chili sauce is very famous.

Pepper has been introduced into China for about 400 years, but this foreign spice soon became popular all over China, taking the position of traditional Chinese prickly ash, ginger and cornus officinalis. The consumption of Chinese prickly ash was squeezed into Sichuan Basin, the hometown of Chinese prickly ash. Cornus officinalis almost completely withdrew from the stage of Chinese food spice, and the position of ginger was largely withdrawn from the diet. The introduction of chili into Chinese food is undoubtedly a food revolution. The powerful chili makes it impossible for any traditional spice to compete with it. The revolution was only a little slow due to the constraints of traffic and information at that time.

What about court dishes?
one book records the dishes used to celebrate the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month, including "Spicy Rabbit". However, there was no detailed description of what kind of dish it was. In the following Qing Dynasty, a dish named "Spicy Rabbit Silk" also appeared in Tioding Collection. Shredded chicken soup simmer, add yellow rice wine, soy sauce, onion, ginger juice, Chinese prickly ash, and soybean powder to finish the soup.

No pepper is used, but pepper is added, so the name of the dish has the word "spicy". It should have the same taste as the "spicy" in the "spicy live rabbit" in the "Records of Drinking". There are two kinds of flavors without chilli. As for whether rabbit meat is used, why the dish is called "Spicy Rabbit" is an unsolved mystery. In the Records of Drinking, dozens of famous dishes in the imperial court are listed. In addition to the aforementioned "Spicy Rabbit", there is also a dish called "Spicy Soup", which is a soup to drink every morning to prevent cold in November. Nowadays, ginger soup is often drunk to prevent cold. The "hot soup" here may be of the same type. As for other places where pepper is used, none of them has been found.

===Conclusion===
Even in the Qing Dynasty, pepper still did not enter the court. The Manchu people did not even have the habit of eating mustard seeds. "A Dream of Red Mansions" describes the dishes made of vinegar, as well as various other cooking methods, but hot dishes never appeared.

===Introduction===
In the 5,000 years of Chinese culture, music has slowly flowed with the history to modern times. Whenever you hear an ancient rhythm, it is like going back in time to the days of small bridges and flowing water and talented people. This is our own Chinese beauty. The Rites of Zhou states that ancient Chinese musical instruments can be divided into the "eight tones" - gold, stone, earth, leather, silk, wood, lagen and bamboo. The chime is a representative of "gold", and is also known as a "national treasure"! Emerging from a time of turmoil, it has been passed down for thousands of years.
The chime is an ancient traditional percussion instrument made of bronze, with a combination of flat round bells of different sizes, each with a different pitch. In two dimensions, the chimes are narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, with uneven edges around the mouth. Most of the chimes are beautifully carved and decorated, or lined with elaborate drums, which are known as bell-nipples.

First appearing in the Shang dynasty, the chime was born in the midst of chaos and was popularised in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States, where it remained in use until the Ming and Qing dynasties. It can be said to have emerged from the chaotic times and to have been handed down for thousands of years. The early chimes were mostly made up of three or five pieces, and could play simple old tunes.

The chimes of the Ming and Qing dynasties were completely different from the traditional chimes, not only in form but also in tone, and by this time the music of the chimes had long since lost the majesty and coolness of the chimes. Chimes were generally used for courtly music, and in the early days, they were used for major occasions such as conquests, banquets and rituals, so that in ancient times they were also a symbol of status and power, and only the ruler had the right to use them. In the Poetic Edda, there is a phrase that refers to the chimes: "I use the chimes and drums of music to please my fair lady", and they were also used in large banquets and dances.

Most of the chimes from the Western Zhou period are oval in shape with a narrow top and a wide bottom, and a large number of performance scores were recorded on the bodies of the chimes, the ultimate purpose of which was to facilitate rehearsal and performance, and which accidentally became the carrier of chime culture. From the Qin dynasty onwards the chimes gradually pursued aesthetic appearance, neglecting the effect of the sound itself, and the Qing dynasty's lack of attention to ritual and music led to the gradual loss of many of the finest bronze chime casting techniques. During the Han dynasty, chimes fell into decline, and although they were still a symbol of the status of the emperor, they were far removed from the chimes of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, and were even inferior to those of the pre-Qin period in terms of silencing. After more than 500 years at its peak, the chimes still went into decline.

From the Song dynasty onwards, foreign musical instruments flowed in and other traditional instruments emerged, gradually eliminating chimes from court performance, and by the Qing dynasty they were shaped into mere decorative objects that could not be played. The art of bell casting was lost from the Song dynasty, but when the Zeng Houyi Chimes were unearthed, the Chinese Cultural Affairs Bureau set up the Zeng Houyi Chimes Reproduction Research Group, which succeeded in reproducing a full set of Zeng Houyi Chimes in 1984, and the technology of bell casting came back to light.The recovery of the chime casting technique has led to an increasing focus on the preservation and promotion of traditional culture.

Mr. Robert, husband of the famous female singer Ms. Gong Linna, first saw a replica of the Zeng Houyi Chimes in 2005 and heard the sound of the chimes live, the teacher was instantly blown away, after which he became addicted to chime music and couldn't help himself, wanting to successfully put chime music symbols in modern society, creating "Mountain Ghost" in 2007, and in 2009, with the help of the Hong Kong Orchestra and the National Orchestra Together, they created "Bell Music and Harmony". In 2018, Ms. Gong Linna and Robert used chimes to perfectly interpret Qu Yuan's "Li Sao" on the programme "Classics Flow", allowing the ancient sound that had been dormant for thousands of years to appear on modern television programmes and allowing audiences across the country to appreciate the charm of chimes.

At the Shanghai World Expo the chimes were the face of modern music, and Professor Kong Fan from the University of Science and Technology of China brought his research team to the Shanghai Expo to combine the chimes with modern technology to create a magnetic levitation chime that was a breath of fresh air. With a strong magnet made of rare earth roundness in each chime, which determines the levitating position of the bronze chimes through high speed detection thousands of times per second, this group of magnetically levitated chimes has once again amazed the world.

===Conclusion===
The sound of chimes, which has been flowing in history for 2,500 years, has finally reappeared through modern technology, presenting us with a visual feast. Among the four ancient civilisations, Chinese culture is the most completely preserved, adapting and surviving in modern times to the last, all of which, apart from the research led by scientists, is inseparable from the many, many heirs and lovers of traditional culture. In this age of colourfulness and diversity, traditional culture deserves its place too!

==Live Streaming Culture in Contemporary China==

随着直播行业的快速发展，直播已经广泛出现在人们的日常生活中。它不仅是一种经济现象，也是一种文化现象，反映了当代人的精神文化和娱乐追求的倾向和偏好。本文将对直播进行介绍，包括其类别、互动模式以及在当代中国的影响。

===Introduction===
Live streaming was not initially a product of the network. In The Radio and Television Dictionary, live streaming refers to the post-synthesis and broadcast of radio programs at the same time, and live television broadcast is the broadcast method of producing and broadcasting television programs simultaneously with the occurrence and development process of events.” It can be seen that live streaming firstly appeared on traditional media radio and television stations.
On January 1, 2008, the General Office of the State Council put forward a notice proposing to promote the integration of the Three Networks (telecommunication network, computer network and cable TV network). Until today, the integration of the three networks has experienced twelve years of development. Under the background of the continuous progress of interconnection technology, cell phone has been transformed from a simple communication tool to a multifunctional device integrating communication, TV watching and the internet access. With the increasing number of cell phones, the number of cell phone users also continues to go high, providing support for the development of cell phone live steaming. Taking advantage of a large number of live streaming platforms, the connotation of network live streaming also transformed from the early program broadcast into the broadcast of life scenes that the general public can participate in, which is a leap forward.
===Categories of Living Streaming===
(1)According to the main body of live streaming, it can be divided into star live streaming, net celebrity live streaming and common people live streaming. Star live is held by actors, athletes and other celebrities with a certain degree of fame and attention in the mass media, the audience of star live is mainly fans. The purpose of star live is often to let fans see the daily life of the stars to close the distance. Net celebrity live is held by the network celebrities who have become popular in micro blogging, short video platform or other social platforms, and some of them are professional anchors. As opposed to stars and net celebrities, the rest of the ordinary anchors who do not have great influence and attention are collectively referred to as common people live.
(2)According to the live content, live streaming can be generally divided into four categories: live show, live game, live pan-life broadcast and live streaming sale. Show live is the earliest type of live streaming, and it requires the anchors to show their talents. Game live is about electronic games, and most of them are competitive games and it has a certain threshold for both parties - the game anchor is generally required to be proficient or at least familiar with the game being broadcast; the audience is at least aware of the game, otherwise they cannot participate well in the live viewing. Pan-life live streaming refers to the live streaming that shows daily life, where the anchor simply sings, casually chats, eats and shows their daily life. It is live and casual and with no rehearsal, and anyone with a device can become an anchor by registering an account. As the fastest growing type of live streaming since 2016, pan-life live streaming is leading the wave of live streaming with a “mobile live for all” approach. Live streaming sale is an emerging commercial activity which aims to sale goods, and it is all about introduction and exhibition of products.
===Patterns of Interaction in Live Streaming===
(1)Get connected: anchor to anchor interaction
This is a way of interaction between two anchors to achieve a more interesting live broadcast and share fans through a common broadcasting room. It is to connect the live rooms of two hosts, and the way to get connected is that the host can choose to connect with a host they are familiar with or be randomly matched by the system. For viewers, they can see both hosts on the same live screen at the same time. The anchors will chat, sing, play games and so on to make the live streaming more interesting, and at the same time the anchor will also recommend their own fans to pay attention to the other anchor. The fans watching the live broadcast do not have the loyalty between traditional idols and fans, so the anchors can achieve the purpose of sharing fans and maximizing benefits.
(2)Pop-ups and gifts: fan-anchor interaction
The explosive growth of User Generated Content (UGC) attracts large-scale internet users to join the content interaction, and “gifts and pop-ups” constitute the basic ecology of live streaming culture. Pop-ups gives fans an opportunity to express their emotions, and gifts is another important way for fans to interact with anchors, which first existed in original literature websites, and then was introduced as an innovative payment function by self-media and gradually introduced by major platforms.
(3)Melt media interaction: the establishment of cross-platform fan group
Senior anchors do not limit themselves to interacting with their fans briefly on the live platform, but will establish WeChat or QQ fan groups to achieve cross-platform interaction. The establishment of fan groups can make the interaction between fans and anchors more intimate. The fan groups of popular anchors have certain requirements in terms of access qualifications, such as the amount of bounty, frequency of interaction, etc., and anchors will also use fan groups to give back to their fans, such as more interaction, red packets or other benefits.
===Conclusion===
On the one hand, live streaming has brought many beneficial effects to people’s lives. People have a new way to learn and express themselves. And also its platform advantages can make it a disseminator of excellent culture and promote people towards cultural confidence and cultural self-awareness.
On the other hand, the trend of network live entertainment is obvious, and overly entertaining and vulgarized content is popping up, which to some extent hinders the spread and popularization of socialist core values. Therefore, restrictions should be taken to standardize live streaming.

===Introduction===
I. Origin and Development of Imagery in Chinese Classical Poems

Imagery is the soul and the core of the Chinese classical poetry. Based on the actual experiences and feelings, imagery exceeds the simple physical image, and it’s a reflection of the poet's imagination and divergence thinking. In Chinese literary tradition, the expression “Yi Xiang”(意象) has existed since ancient times, and it “has long been a concern of Chinese poetry from its very beginning.” (Pauline Yu 1987,3) It’s used to “denote a verbal expression that evokes a mental picture or recalls a physical sensation, not necessarily visual” (James Y. Liu 1962,101) Actually, the imagery and its theoretical system have undergone three upgrades, and then gradually developed into the one we’re familiar with, i.e. the objective things in poetry fusing the poet's subjective feelings and aspirations.

The first theoretical promotion occurred in the Pre-Qin times, based on Zhuangzi’s “words don’t exhaust meaning” and “The Sages established the images to give fullness of the concepts in their minds” in Commentaries on the Book of Changes (Stephen Owen 1992,31). In Wei and Jin Dynasties, the second promotion was marked by Wang Bi’s further illustration on the triadic structure of “the concept in mind”(意), “images”(象) and “words”(言) in his book Elucidation of the Images(《明象》), which indicates that words exists for images, and images for the concept in mind. It was Liu Xie in Han Dynasty who exactly introduced image into literary and endowed it with aesthetic connotation, which signals the third theoretical promotion. In his book Carving a Dragon with a Literary Mind, Liu stated “a uniquely discerning carpenter wield his axe with his eye to the concept-image”.

II. Interpretation of Typical Imageries

1. Botanical Imagery

1) Willow
Willow is always employed to express sentiment attached to parting. In Han Dynasty, there formed the custom of “breaking off a willow branch for leave-taking”. The pronunciation of “柳” in Chinese is similar with “留”, which means “(want someone) to stay”, endowing the willow with sensibilities of missing someone or the sadness of departure.

2) Wutong trees
Wutong, also known as plane or Chinese parasol, is closely associated with autumn and a melancholy mood. Wutong usually conveys a sense of grief and desolation. And the half dead wutong can be compared to the middle-aged widower or widow.

3) Chrysanthemum
Blooming in autumn, the Chrysanthemum often symbolizes loftiness, constancy, integrity and nobility of a character as well as a secluded life, especially in Tao Yuanming’s poems.
By the way, some botanical imageries, such as bamboo, pine trees and plum-blossom, share similar symbolic meaning to some extent.

2. Animal Imagery

1) Cuckoo

Cuckoo, also named “子规” or “子鹃” in Chinese, is associated with farewell because its call sounds like the pronunciation of “不如归去”(bùrúguīqù), which means “It’s better to return.” Wandering travelers far away from hometown will be touched when hearing such sounds, which evoke their distress and homesickness. Moreover, when departing with friends or relatives, people are always sorrowful, hoping they can soon return.

2) Crane
For one thing, the natural image of the crane, full of vitality and soaring in the sky, often embodies the poet’s yearning for a free and secluded life. For another, the crane symbolizes longevity and mourning, showing poet’s life-worrying consciousness. Additionally, as an important cultural icon of Taoism, the crane is associate with immortality, which reflects the holiness of Taoism and the religious ideal of pursuing the freedom and the eternity.

3) Swallow
Swallows are migratory birds whose return heralds the coming of spring. Therefore, swallow imagery, firstly, is to render the poet's appreciation of the pleasant spring. Besides, swallows often appear in pairs in people’s houses or under the eaves, hence two swallows embody an enviable love or love-sickness. Finally, in some poems, the swallow represents the poet’s indignation about vicissitudes of the past as well as the country’s subjugation and destruction.

3. Inanimate Imagery

1) Moon
The moon, with various appellations in Chinese, such as “玉弓”, “银盘”, “婵娟”, etc., is one of the most commonly-used imageries in Chinese poetry. It implicates the general Chinese national mentality and denotes the obscured illusions of the Chinese spiritual homestead. The moon implies homesickness, especially when it is full, which symbolizes a perfect home life or a happy union. On the contrary, a waning moon indicates destitution or separation. Even today, those who are far from home would feel homesick and forlorn at the sight of the moon, just like the writer of “Still Night Thought”.

2) River
In China, the Yangtze River and the Yellow River are two main rivers, which originates from the southwest of China hence flowing eastward. So the imagery of river appears always accompanied with words “flowing eastward”. Sometimes poets use it as a metaphor for a moral, hermetic life, obstruction or time. Also, it’s a symbol of separation with sadness, because in ancient China poets usually send their friends or families off by the riverside.

3) East wind and west wind
Due to geographical factors, “east wind” in China, as a sign of spring, brings warmth and speeds the greening of plants and spurs love. Conversely, “west wind” in China symbolizes chilly coldness in winter, which is connected with something bleak and desolate.

===Conclusion===
There’re three major theoretical upgrades before the imagery theory we understand today gradually formed. Due to its rich connotations, profound philosophy and unique spirit, the proper comprehension of imagery is the key to appreciate and experience the charm of poetry. Moreover, the study of imagery is of great significance to the study of Chinese classical literature as well as the inheritance of Chinese traditional culture.

===Introduction===
The Chinese people consider tigers as power, luck, righteousness, valour and vigour in their country, so they use anything about tiger to avoid disasters. From the ancient China, “tiger culture” has begun to spread.
At the beginning, tiger culture was originated from totems. During Yin and Zhou Dynasty, our ancestors engraved tiger patterns on bronze wares; In the military dimensions, the emperors used Military Tiger Talisman(虎符) to move their military troops, and it also means the sovereign power of the ruling class; The ancient people also engraved tiger patterns on eaves and used those eaves to build houses, which means their houses peaceful and auspicious; During Chinese New Year, the Chinese people not only paste “Door God” on their doors, but also paste pictures of a tiger. In folk, Chinese parents make tiger head shoes for their children, because “The folk believes that ‘dog doesn’t eat dog’(虎毒不食子). For the safety and healthy growth of children, people make tiger-faced shoes and hats to knock on luck, drive away evil and avoids evil.” (Liu Jia, 2010, 201) Therefore, tiger-faced shoes play the role in Chinese culture: to bring luck and auspiciousness, to prevent disasters from children, and to make a hope that children could grow up healthily and happily.
===Origin===
The origin of tiger-faced shoes, or Hutou Xie, can date back to the Stone Age.There are a lot of fairy tales about tiger-faced shoes. According to Quan Yue(2022, 148-151), once upon a time, a young boatman whose surname is Shi lived on the bank of the Yellow River, and he helped the local residents cross the river every day. One day, an old lady in a hurry to cross the river to ask a midwife to give a birth to her daughter-in-law’s child. However, Unexpectedly that the old lady was dizzy when her was on the boat, so the young boatman had to help the old woman to ask a midwife alone. Then the second day, on the birth of her grandson, the old lady sent a painting to the young boatman as a present for his kindness.
In that painting, there was a beautiful girl. And the next day, the beautiful girl became a real girl standing in front of the boatman, and then, they got married. Several years later, a local official wanted to rob of the beauty, so the girl ran into the picture again. Then the official roared to the picture: “if you do not out, I will break you into pieces!” The girl was extremely afraid.
While at the boatman’s home, the old lady made a pair of red shoes which shaped like a tiger’s head to the boatman’s son, and said: “Putting on the pair of red shoes to save you mom!.” After that, the little boy ran to save his mom, and when he came in the official’s home, he was angry and suddenly, his shoes became a fierce tiger! The tiger ate the official in one bite, and finally, the boy saved his mom. The family reunited happily. This is one of the origin of tiger head shoes.
===Design===
In most areas of China, the main colors of tiger-faced shoes are red and yellow. While tailors sew the mouth, nose and eyes of the tiger with thick threads. “When making tiger-faced shoes, some people like decorating tigers’ eyes and ears with rabbit fur. With three colors of red, yellow and white, the tiger-faced shoes look vivid.”(Xu Xiren, 2017, 144) At the same time, different people use different colors to decorate the shoes. For example, the Han people often use yellow cloth to decorate tiger head shoes, while the Yi people like using white cloth.
As to the appearance of tiger-faced shoes, in general, the appearance of a pair of tiger-faced shoes is tiger-liked pattern, on which has eyes, mouth, nose and beard. While in different places, tiger patterns on shoes have slight differences, for example, “In north China, the design of tiger head is more exaggerated and more rugged, while in abundant Jiangnan, the design is more delicate.”(Wang Chenlin, 2019, 69) Chen Hui also described that in Henan province, tiger head shoes have rough shape and strong local flavor; in Shandong province, the head of shoes is more prone to be like cat head, lion head or dragon head.(Chen Hui, 2017, 192)
===Implied meaning and value===
In traditional Chinese culture, people attach great importance to their children. Parents hope their children will have bright future and also, they hope they can be taken good care of by their kids when they are old. So parents have high expectations for their kids.
When children are little babies, their parents use kinds of ways which might be superstitious to protect them from dangers. For example, when a baby is born, the first person who holds the baby is serious in China, because the Chinese people think the behavior will pass good luck, a healthy body and so on to the kid, so they require the person who is the first to hold their new-born baby is of good health and good fortune and so on.
Therefore, tiger-faced shoes are of the same significance for Chinese parents. Tiger, the king of beasts, has the implied meaning of good luck and power in China, so parents make tiger-shoes for their little baby to prevent dangers, bad luck and disease. Meanwhile, according to Yin Zhuoran, he said a pair of tiger-faced shoes “有鼻子有眼” (has a nose and big eyes), which means the one who wears it is a complete and healthy person.(Yin Zhuoran, 2010, 185) Yang Xueqin also referred to that “In folk art, women's fabric products, embroidery, paper cut and other designs, follow the idea symbolized by the metaphor, and are subject to the wishes of happiness and luck...”(Yang Xueqin, 1990, 179) Such statements implied that those who wear tiger head shoes will be a healthy, auspicious and happy person.
Also, the shape of the shoes is matched with children’s growing feet, letting children walking freely.
Tigers have strong life, and the Chinese people praise highly of it, which can be shown in some Chinese idioms such as “生龙活虎” “如龙似虎” “龙腾虎跃” (all of these idioms mean someone has vitality and vigour) and so on. All of these idioms contain a high appreciation for tigers, so parents hope their new-born babies have strong life just like tigers. Also, tigers have a positive impression in Chinese people’s hearts, so they also hope their kids could have the same good characters with tigers in the world.
===Conclusion===
As a part of traditional Chinese culture, tiger-faced shoes has been handed down by the Chinese people from generation to generation, and people innovate it in different ways. Ding Xiaojia once mentioned in his article: “Tiger shaped pillow and tiger-shaped earthenware are very like modeling of tiger-head shoes in spirit. People are using another way to express their respect for tiger-head shoes’ auspicious meaning.”(Ding Xiaojia, 2015, 628) The combination of traditional craftsmanship with constant innovation has kept the vitality of tiger-faced shoes. And with the shoes, Chinese parents place the best wishes on their children. so, in today’s world, it is important for us to inherit and spread the culture of tiger-faced shoes, as well as making innovation constantly. Only doing these will our fine traditional Chinese culture flourish.

===中国马面裙===
===摘要===
马面裙又名“马面褶裙”，是中国古代裙式的主要代表之一。它源于宋代，盛于明清，延续至今，受到无数人的青睐。在此，我想借此文介绍马面裙，让读者了解其发展历史、结构特征、图案纹样、色彩搭配等，使中国的马面裙走向世界。
===关键词===
马面裙、历史发展、结构特征、图案纹样、色彩搭配

===Introduction===
When it comes to “horseface skirt (also mamianqun)”, you may be amazed by its name. So why is it called that? Some people believe that it’s because the skirt doors look quite similar to “mamian”, which refers to the defensive structure of the ancient city wall. While others think that its middle skirt door, which is a rectangle, is like a long horse face. Therefore, this part of skirt is named as “mamian”, and the skirt itself is called mamianqun (also horseface skirt) (Cai Liming 1993,379).

The word “Ma Mian” first appeared in the ''Ming Palace''(Qi Ziyu 2012，2). And the history of horseface skirt can be traced back to “spin skirt” in the Song Dynasty. So, what’s spin skirt? Actually, it is a functional dress designed for women’s donkey riding. Meng Hui said, “This type of Song skirt is composed of two equal but independent trains. When making a skirt, the two parts are partially stacked together and sewn to the waist (Caoxue,Wang Qunshan 2016,109).” Because of its shape and structure, it’s considered to be the embryonic form of horseface skirt. In Ming Dynasty, the horseface skirt gradually formed. With its simple style and beautiful color, it impressed people with its elegance. From the royal nobles to the common people, everyone wore horseface skirts. However, in terms of the texture, decoration, and color, there were strict differences among classes. Since the foundation of the Qing Dynasty, horseface skirt evolved from a general skirt for men and women to a skirt only for women, and more forms appeared, such as pleated skirt, yuehua skirt, and fengwei skirt. In the 21st century, to some extent, the rise of Hanfu movement has once again promoted horseface skirt, and it’s still favored by world people.

====The Structure of Horseface Skirt====
“The Yi (the upper garment) and Shang (the lower skirt)”is one of the clothing forms in Chinese civilization, and horseface skirt is a kind of “Shang”, which is mainly composed of four parts, namely, the skirt door, the skirt flank, the skirt couplet and the waistband. There are 4 skirt doors at the front, back, inside and outside, overlapping each other. The two skirt flanks refer to the side folds of the skirt. And two skirt couplets are two pieces, which are partially stacked together and sewn to the waist. While the waistband functions to gird the waist with the help of beltloops. It is this special design that allows the wearer to move freely without being too revealing，which reflects the implicit and introverted national temperament of the Chinese nation.

====The Patterns of Horseface Skirt====
Let’s move on, and learn about its patterns! There are two types of horseface skirt patterns -- separate embroidery patterns and large embroidery patterns,among which the separate embroidery patterns account for the majority. Each pattern conveys a different meaning. Taking the animal patterns “dragon” and “phoenix” as an example, in the long history of China, dragon and phoenix are considered to be auspicious. They are seen to be the symbols of prosperity, solemnity and power. Therefore, these patterns are mostly found in the clothes of ancient emperors and their concubines. Taking the pattern of “fish” as another example, fish harmonizes with "Yu"（in mandarin）,which conveys the good meaning of having a surplus for the next year in China. People also embroider some plants and flowers on their horseface skirts, such as our national flower peony, which represents wealth and nobility; the undefiled lotus, which symbolizes purity; the golden chrysanthemum, which represents longevity; and lily, which represents sacredness and holiness, friendship and a bright future (Sun Hui ,Wu Yue 2017,11).

====The Colors of Horseface Skirt====
Generally speaking, in terms of color, horseface skirt can be divided into solid color horse face skirt and colorful horseface skirt (such as yuehua skirt). Horseface skirts are always gorgeous in color, mostly red, followed by blue and other colors(Zhang Pei，Yang Jingyi 2022,80).That’s because the red color represents joy and auspiciousness, which can bring people hopes and wishes for a better life in the future, and give them a sense of happiness. Therefore, it seems that Chinese people naturally love the red color instead of some other dark colors, such as black. Nowadays, young and creative designers are making the horseface skirt more colorful, beautiful and attractive. They are very skillful at striking a wonderful balance between cold and warm colors, and pay attention to the contrast of colors with different brightness and purity, thus making more peoplef fall in love with horseface skirt.

===Conclusion===
The horseface skirt did originate from China and has a very long history. While in July, Dior appropriated Chinese horseface skirt culture and insisted that its collection was an original design, which infuriated Chinese students who took to the streets to protest, demanding respect for Chinese culture. It is this event that prompts me to write this passage. And I know the passage maybe not comprehensive due to the limitation of words, but I still sincerely hope that readers can gain something from it, such as its development history, structure, etc. And I hope more people will love Chinese horseface skirt and spread it to the world.

That’s all! Thank you for your careful reading!

China Chic, or Guochao, is a new type of youth culture with ‘China’ as the core, ‘Chic’ as the expression, ‘culture + technology’ as the driving force, and ‘integration + innovation’ as the main direction of development(Cao Wenfang 2022, 92). And the impact of China Chic has been expanded across various categories, including obvious ones like fashion and cosmetics, and others like architecture, technology, automobiles, and so on. As it develops, China Chic increasingly manifests Chinese people’s ambition of reviving traditional heritage in a modern context and reflecting the profound pride in their national identity (Coco Wu, Harry Kinnear, Maya Madhusoodan, 2020). Incorporating unique cultural elements into the latest trends, Beijing Winter Olympics serves as a good example of the rise of China Chic. China took the chance to introduce its most distinctive cultural elements, through the Games’ logo, mascot, ceremonies and so on. And this paper will introduce the China Chic in the event, through Games’ opening ceremony, mascot, and sports clothing.
===The 24 Solar Terms in the Opening Ceremony===
The 24 solar terms, having been developed throughout Chinese history since about 3,000 years ago and listed on the UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2016, are so important to Chinese people that it appears both creative and natural for Zhang Yimou to employ and showcase them as a unique part of Chinese civilization to the world (Yang Yang, 2022). Hailed as China’s fifth greatest invention, the solar terms developed by ancient Chinese as a calendar to guide agricultural production and reflect some natural phenomena and human life.

The opening ceremony started with a countdown of the 24 solar terms instead of using numbers, delighting the audience, as the first of the 24 solar terms-- “Beginning of Spring” fell on this very day. The countdown of the 24 solar terms shows the unique understanding of Chinese nation towards time. What’s more, Zhang used beautiful poems and proverbs to explain the characteristics of each solar term, while incorporating modern technology to show them in video. Many netizens praised this idea as a show of Chinese Romance. Such combination of traditional culture and modern technology shows the vitality of Chinese culture and the wisdom of Chinese nation.
===Mascot===
Being eyecatchers that help create an Olympic atmosphere, mascots serve to demonstrate the ideas of the host, and the history and culture of the host country (Yin Ziqiang 2022, 10). Bing Dwen Dwen is the panda mascot for Beijing Winter Olympics. Bing means ice in Mandarin, representing purity and strength. Dwen Dwen means sincerity, health, vitality and loveliness, representing the strong body, tenacious will and inspiring spirit of athletes. As a national emblem for China and a significant symbol for foreigners to learn about China, giant pandas are under first-class protection, revealing core Chinese values of harmony between man and nature.

Bing Dwen Dwen wears a full body shell out of ice which connotes both winter sports and China’s space dream. Its head shell is decorated with flowing bright-colored lines symbolizing the track of winter sports and the 5G technology. What’s more, colorful ribbons and the black and white panda present traditional Chinese aesthetic thought of contrast and unity. Bing Dwen Dwen not only captures the profound cultural heritage, but also shows the Olympic spirit and the development of modern technology.

Thanks to its chubby and lovable look, Bing Dwen Dwen has soon become a smash hit around the world. Bing Dwen Dwen souvenirs have been sold out in online stores and customers have to wait in long lines at offline stores to try their luck. As a new online celebrity representing the Winter Olympics, cute and adorable Bing Dwen Dwen was liked and followed by athletes and journalists from around the world who were incredibly enthusiastic about taking photos with the mascot. Bing Dwen Dwen even became a trending Olympic topic on Twitter, building a bridge of communication across national borders and bringing China Chic to the world.
===Sports Clothing===
During Beijing Winter Olympics, Young athletes wore sports clothing bearing Chinese elements, such as dragons, pandas, tigers, the Great Wall, traditional Chinese painting, and Beijing Opera facial makeup, which surprised world audience. Perfectly combining the functionality, nationality and artistry, the sports clothing can realize the free wearing under the change of temperature and scene, which helps to enhance the performance of Team China (Ma Yan, 2021).

It is worth mentioning that the “golden dragon coat” of Eileen Gu, a rising Chinese sports star, spreads China Chic to the world. The “golden dragon coat” was designed by herself to spread Chinese culture, featuring a golden Chinese Dragon on the reverse of the clothing. Dragon is a symbol of China, and descendants of dragon refer to Chinese nation (Yin Sairui 2022, 50). It reveals the spirit of forging ahead. In Chinese culture, gold symbolizes nobility, brilliance and glory. Therefore, the golden dragon coat serves as a brilliant display of Chinese culture. What’s more, incorporating modern fashion trend in its style, this coat is a perfect example of China Chic. Gu’s spectacular performance in the Olympic Games also offers a great opportunity to show China Chic to the world. And this coat is now in the collection of the Olympic Museum in Lausanne, Switzerland. As a result, more and more people start to pay attention to Chinese fashion brands which present rich culture and traditional elements of China through the intuitive of dressing (Zijing Han, Duo Xu, Rujia Zheng, 2022).
===Conclusion===
Beijing Winter Olympics introduces China Chic to the world and show the vitality of Chinese culture. It also demonstrates that Chinese culture is stepping onto the international stage. Therefore, it is necessary for China to take the advantage of China Chic to spread traditional Chinese culture, turning such youth culture into national culture.

==A Brief Introduction of Chinese History of Petting
<center> Zhou Zihao, 202270081702 </center>
===Abstract===
This chapter is on petting in Chinese history. Pets had been considered to be a component of Western lifestyle, and Chinese, maybe due to the notorious reputation for eating dogs, has been long labeled as "a land unfriendly for pets". It was documented that, however, Chinese, especially those in high society, have been keeping pets since anicent times. This paper attempts to give a descriptive view to the petting history of China.

===Introduction===
Chinese were thought not so pet-friendly as Westerners, especially for its notorious dog-eating, and petting is indeed never considered by people home or abroad as a long-prevailing habit of Chinese. In fact, even nowadays petting in China cannot be described as anything related to “popular”. According to 2021 Chinese Pet Industry White Paper, the number of dog-and-cat owners totalled to 68.44 million in 2021 and was expected to increase to 71.68 million which took up only 5.12% of China’s total population. Other “non-traditional” pets, say, birds, other small mammals, reptiles are even rarer to public sight. Even though pet-owner are still a small proportion in China, petting is surely gaining more and more attention publicly and politically.
===Historical Overview of Chinese Petting===
Petting hasn’t been a popular thing since ancient times. For an agricultural country like China, “unpragmatic” animals like dogs and cats used to be quite uncommon because they were not beneficial for farming (Custer, 2021). Nevertheless, there were a few famous pet-lovers documented for their adoration for certain animals. In Pre-Qin periods, the emperor Yi of Wei loved raising cranes. The elegant and purely-white bird was terribly doted on by the emperor Yi who even ranked them with their appearances and qualities and “remunerated” them in accordance with their given “official positions” (Zuo, 2007). Zang Wenzhong, a contemporary of Yi, was obsessed with another unusual animal¬¬—turtles. Like Yi the emperor, Zang cosseted his pets by accommodating the turtles in luxury palaces and that solicited commotion leading to his own doomed end. Interestingly their pampery was harshly chastised by Confucius as a breach of ethical conventions. At that time petting had been exclusive for upper classes with wealth and power who despite the stereotypes of abusing animals pampered their pets with obscene extravagancy. During the Tang Dynasty (AC 618¬¬¬—AC 907) the royal members started raising exotic animals tributed by foreigners as their pets such as elephants, lions, and rhinos in the palace. At the same time petting was gaining popularity among public, and it was presented by the paintings that some people from middle and lower classes had small-sized pets like chicken, dogs, and cats. Animals were no longer merely food resources and pets were more than a time killer but an emotional support and religious and spiritual symbol as well (Li, 2017). Literati would also rest their hopes and sentiments on certain animals in poems. With an increasing demand in petting, a pet-friendly system was also built to condemn the animal-abusers and to compromise who thus lost their pets. In the Ming Dynasty (AC 1368¬¬—AC 1644), Wen Zhenheng recorded then elegant lifestyle of upper literati in his book Zhang Wu Zhi and described their choices of pets in one chapter. In the book Wen deemed pets as “a necessary art for those who live in solitude amongst the hills and woods” (Wen, 2015). By “necessary”, however, Wen meant it for upper class still since the book was written for them. In the Qing Dynasty (AC 1636¬—AC 1912), Man people brought with them nomadic culture and horses and birds were the majority of their choices of pets (She, 2019). In late Qing Dynasty people carrying a bird cage were common to be seen in the teahouses in Beijing as the symbol of their social statue. During the Cultural Revolution in 1960s and 1970s, pets were regarded as the component of the lifestyle of capitalism and therefore strictly forbidden. Pet owners have no choice but to hide, abandon, and even kill their pets. It was surely the most terrible era for pets and their owners. Nowadays in the 21th Century more and more Chinese have pets. Research showed that the pet market in China has increased 60% every year (Pitt, 2021). Analysts also expected that China’s pet industry will multiply 10 times that of a decade ago to 66 billion dollars. Even though petting system in China is still immature and still some people regard pet as emotionless animals, a more convenient society is being built for animal-lovers. Moreover, pets can get new jobs in cat-or-dog café and even make an income on social media. People’s attitude towards pets also changed a lot. Take dogs as example. Chinese used to treat dog as a source of meat. However, today the majority of dogs are viewed as companions and usually treated as family members (Coren, 2018).
===Conclusion===
In conclusion, pets were rare in ancient China, and most people who had pets were those in higher classes. Their pets were uncommon and exotic animals such as birds and fishes instead of dogs and cats. It is since the Tang Dynasty that people from lower classes started to have small animals as pets. However, in ancient times pets gained little popularity in general. In modern times with the increase of middle class and the influence of western culture, people’s attitude towards pets changed and dogs and cats are more accepted by public. Even though China has not been the most pet-friendly country, a mature petting system is now being built.

==Opera:Lv opera(of Shandong Province)==
<center>庄昊康Zhuang Haokang, 202270081713</center>
===Abstract===
Lv Opera, also known as Yangqin and Qinxi Opera, is a national intangible cultural heritage, one of the eight major operas in China, and the most representative local opera in Shandong Province. It is popular in most parts of Shandong Province and parts of Jiangsu, Anhui and Northeast China. It originated in the Yellow River Delta in northern Shandong Province and evolved from Shandong Qinshu. Its music belongs to Banqiang, and it also sings Qupai. The main accompaniment instruments are Zhuiqin (the main string), Yangqin, Sanxian and Pipa, which are called "the four major pieces of Lv Opera".It is deeply loved by the broad masses of the people with its simple and vivid language, beautiful and pleasant singing voice.

===Key Words===
Lv Opera;Cultural Heritage;Opera;Music Forms;Performing Arts

===Introduction===
Lv Opera originated in the Yellow River Delta, where the Yan and Zhao cultures, the Sanjin culture and the recent Beijing and Tianjin cultures have merged, making this area a long and colorful history of folk art. Among these arts, "Shuo Shu" is especially popular among the masses, and the storytellers use the local language familiar to the masses to interpret stories that express the emotional life and social patterns of the Qilu people. Huimin County," there is mentioned: "rap music in the lower reaches of the Yellow River in this area is quite prosperous, more than fifty miles southwest of Binzhou not far from the Yellow River there is a Huji village (belonging to Huimin County), where every year to hold a 'book meeting' to Huji as a gathering place, hiring rap artists from around the world to come to sing ". According to local elders, the "Huji Book Fair" was traced back to the Yuan Dynasty, and was even more prosperous in the early Qing Dynasty, and is still an annual event in Huimin. It can be inferred that this "book fair" provided the conditions for the introduction of the qinshu panel style, which also laid the main position of Shandong qinshu in the cultural activities of the Yellow River Delta at that time, and the predecessor of Lv opera sprouted in such an environment.

In terms of the distribution of Lv opera in Shandong Province, the Qinshu is divided into the east, the south and the north to spread. The various documentary sources can be summarized that it was not until around 1913 that Guangrao and Boxing completed the establishment of the board cadence and the mode of make-up performance respectively, which marked the basic formation of the prototype of Lv opera.

The germination of Lv opera is the fruit of the geographical environment, folk customs and folk art traditions of the Yellow River Delta region, and is the crystallization of the wisdom of the working people of Guangrao and Boxing. Lv opera emerged here, flourished here and developed from here, precisely because of the performance form of South Road Qinshu as the foundation, plus the later development and consolidation of East Road and North Road Qinshu, which facilitated the process of the birth of Lv opera.

Because of the connection between Lv opera and Shandong Qinshu, the repertoire of early Lv opera was mostly adapted from Shandong Qinshu, and some of the repertoire was transplanted from other genres. This type of repertoire was mainly based on folklore, and was created orally by the artists of the time according to the local customs and customs. After the test of time, scholars now classify this category of repertoire as "traditional repertoire". After the establishment of New China, according to the national policy of that time, Lv opera also created some new plays in response to the current trend, which are called "modern plays". Lv opera is still being developed, and the plays with historical themes that appear on the stage today are born out of the increasing aesthetic demand of the audience and the national policy of melody. The repertoire of Shandong Lv opera can be divided into three categories: "traditional plays", "modern plays" and "new historical plays".

The singing method of Lv opera is the same for both male and female cavities, but the male cavity is mainly sung in real voice, while the female cavity is sung in a combination of real and falsetto voice, and is five degrees higher than the male cavity. Since Lv opera originated from the art of rapping, there is no distinction between "singing" and "reading" in the performance.

When singing, Lv opera focuses on setting up the cadence with words, bringing the voice with emotion, singing with singing, spitting out words clearly, speaking naturally, and sounding natural and smooth. Compared with the high and aggressive Qin cadence and the soft and distant Kunqu, the singing voice of Lv opera is more lyrical and lingering. It is often used for the glissando, trill and ornamentation, and it is important for the words to be correct. The combination of soft tone, trill, beating tone and overtone of the falling qin makes the whole singing stretching and beautiful. Shandong Lv opera has absorbed the artistic components of the clapper cavity, so it is also based on the board cavity, and its singing voice can be roughly divided into two categories: "Siping cavity" and "two boards".

Lv opera is mostly about small matters between parents and neighbors, so it is rare to see actors doing fighting on the stage of Lv opera, and the plays with more action are only exaggerated renditions of real-life actions. It was only after a large number of new historical dramas were created that more and more martial arts plays were seen on the stage of Lv opera. "Doing" and "fighting" are usually combined with each other in opera performances. The female roles require a higher level of "doing", such as "lying fish", which requires the actor to be skilled in terms of flexibility, balance and waist and leg strength.

After a hundred years of development, Lv Opera has been included in the list of intangible cultural heritage of China and is one of the eight major local operas in China, which can be said to be a small achievement. However, as an important member of Chinese traditional culture, it inevitably encounters various obstacles in the process of development. In order to pass on Lv opera better, it is inevitable that reasonable and effective countermeasures should be formulated in conjunction with the characteristics of the times.

===Conclusion===
The current situation of Lv Opera in Shandong province is not optimistic.Many professional Lv Opera troupes have been gradually renamed or merged,or even completely disappeared.The inheritance of Lv Opera has become increasingly difficult. The younger generation,who genuinely love Lv Opera and perform it,are also less and less.The audience is aging.Based on these conditions,it is not only necessary to carry out the task of promoting traditional culture to individuals,but also requires the government to increase its investment in culture and art, and introduce more effective policies.

==Chinese Culture and A Child’s Education==

<center> Wellsand, Benjamin, 202111080018 </center>

===Abstract===

The social conditions of China have never been more taxing when it comes to a decades-long engrained child education culture and a problematic rapidly aging population. The social constructs of the longstanding loyalty to kinship and interdependence of collectivism within China place a cyclical concern from parent to child as one looks out for the other to ensure a fruitful economic future. The 1950s one-child policy has not only served to slow birth rates but has inadvertently allowed for a significant amount of finances to be set aside for the future of an only child to ensure the desired monetary success. The Chinese Communist Party has recognized the challenges the future of the country faces as a result of past policies and is seeking to revolutionize the education culture in order to permit Chinese families to grow without fear of missing out on a profitable and fulfilling future for the entire family unit. The modern-day CCP and the ancient philosopher, Confucius, align in their understanding of the vital role that the family plays in the future health of Chinese society.

中国文化与儿童教育

===摘要===

当涉及到长达数十年的根深蒂固的儿童教育文化和问题迅速老龄化的人口时，中国的社会状况从未如此沉重。中国长期以来对亲属关系的忠诚和集体主义相互依存的社会结构使父母对孩子产生了周期性的关注，因为一个人照顾另一个人以确保一个富有成果的经济未来。 1950 年代的独生子女政策不仅有助于降低出生率，而且无意中允许为独生子女的未来预留大量资金，以确保理想的经济成功。中国共产党已经认识到过去的政策给国家的未来带来的挑战，并正在寻求对教育文化进行革命性的改革，以使中国家庭能够成长，而不用担心错过一个有利可图和充实的未来。家庭单位。现代中共和古代哲学家孔子对家庭在中国社会未来健康发展中所扮演的重要角色的理解是一致的。

===Introduction===

In Chinese culture, the family name is displayed prominently before the individual’s given name as a clear indicator of the honor given to the family unit and the collective nature by which the individual is viewed within foundational societal institutions. China is a culture that is overtly centered on kinship. “Male offspring were especially valued for their role in carrying on the family name, explains Li Liu of Beijing Normal University, “without a male heir, a family line originating from its ancestors is terminated, and the family’s place in the universe gets lost forever.” (2007: 57) China is world-renown for having the largest population. Beginning in the 1950s, the population grew on a steep trajectory from 540 million to 940 million by 1976. The booming industrialization caused concern of famine and housing shortages as more people were expected to start searching for higher-paying urban jobs as opposed to working on farms. In response to these concerns, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) started limiting births provincially in 1979 and finally standardized the one-child policy in 1980 which limited ethnic Chinese to only one child per couple. The fertility rate dropped from 6.1 in 1990 to 1.16 in 2021. (Master & Zhang 2022)

It is the cultural importance placed upon a male heir to carry on the family name that explains the resulting current skewed sex ratio. (Statista 2021) Charles Kraft shares, “Family and relatives are the big things to [kinship cultures]. Those with family are wealthy (whether or not they have any money).” (1996: 121) Great financial responsibility is placed upon a son’s family who is seeking to find a wife for him. 房子 (house), 车子 (car), and 票子 (money) are viewed as the requirements that should be met in order for a daughter to agree to take a man as her husband. While housing prices have steadied (Aljazeera 2022), the job market continues to be a challenge do to an economic slow from the COVID-19 pandemic. (Bloomberg News 2022)

There is an inordinate amount of competition in children’s education that accompanies these high social demands. Laurie Chen (2018) reports that more than sixty percent of primary school children (up to seventy percent in larger cities) were tutored outside of the classroom and parents paid an average of 120,000 RMB on up to 300,000 RMB for extracurricular education. The 双一流 (Double First-Class Initiative) higher education ranking leaves limited space for academic success. Zhang Duanhong (2019), writes of “the ‘exhausting high school, carefree university’ paradigm, in which university life is treated as a reward for making it through the rigors of the country’s college entrance exam.” The 90 percent graduation rate further limits the space available in universities and increased entry competition. The highly competitive nature in higher education has conditioned both sexes to pursue the greatest quality of education and the highest paid positions obtainable. Students must place their entire life on hold and focus all attention on study.

To ease the high societal demands of childrearing and encourage population growth, the CCP has made significant policy changes in areas such as private education (Koty 2021), maternity leave (Huang & Huang 2021), afterschool childcare (Zhang 2021), along with child subsidies (Ma 2022). Yet it remains an uphill battle to change the social conditioning of a country built around a single-child family. The 鸡娃 (chicken baby) parenting mentality continues on despite best efforts to curb this longstanding trend. (Feng 2021) Private education has not disappeared but has simply undergone a transformation as is the case with English tutors turned online product salespeople. (Jia 2022) Private education companies are believed to shift as well from educators to a rebranding as providers of AI products, software, and services for public education institutions. (Knox 2021)

The philosopher, Confucius, upon whose teaching pillars Chinese society is built, was a strong advocate of the family. He recognized human flourishing occurring within five complex relationships and three of these are familial: father/son, elder/younger brother, and husband/wife. Confucius felt that it was “in the context of the family that we acquire the building blocks for navigating the wildly complex relational networks that comprise human society.” (Ten Elshof, 2015: 14) Filial piety is no surprise in the face of a culture that centers on the family. Liu explains, “Filial piety is more than just showing filial obedience to parents: most importantly, it indicates raising sons to support aging parents and having sons to continue the family line.” (2007: 56) This too is a practice that finds support within Confucianism as a “value that calls on adult children to fulfill obligations to respect, obey, support, and care for elderly parents.” (Shea, Moore, & Zhang, 2020: 29) 养儿防老 (to bring up children for the purpose of being looked after in old age) is the Chinese parental motto that shows the expectations placed upon the children to care for their aging parents. Caring for the aged will only increase in difficulty as the average age of Chinese citizens rises. (Campbell 2019) Further exacerbating the age demographic phenomena is that this comes on the heels of the one-child policy that leaves two sets of aging parents on the shoulders of one married couple. Tang Youcai and Jeanne Shea discovered that those coming from rural areas “have both higher proportions of elderly folks and lower levels of economic development.” (2020: 92)

===Conclusion===

A collective, kinship country that is culturally conditioned to associate the wellbeing and preservation of the family with social and economic success finds itself in the face of a challenging future. The CCP is working tirelessly to show it supports and recognizes the need for the Chinese family, only that it has one major issue with it: its size. The battle for the family that started in Confucius’s day continues in the present. The academic atmosphere that crescendos at standardized testing (Li 2019) and a highly competitive job market that leaves even college graduates in a tight spot (Pike 2022) places the child’s education at front and center in the battle for social survival. The weight of the future of China predictably rests, from a cultural perspective, on the shoulders of the family unit.

===Introduction===
Pepper was introduced into China from America at the end of the Ming Dynasty, but at first it was only used as ornamental crops and medicines. In the early Qing Dynasty, Guizhou and its neighboring areas were the first to eat chili. In Guizhou, where salt was scarce, during the reign of Emperor Kangxi (1662-1722), "soil seedlings were used to replace salt". Pepper played a role in replacing salt, which shows that it is closely related to life. From the Qianlong period (1736-1795), a large number of hot peppers were eaten in Guizhou. During the reign of Qianlong, Zhenxiong, Yunnan, which was adjacent to Guizhou, and Chenzhou Prefecture, Hunan, in the east of Guizhou, also began to eat chili. After Jiaqing (1796-1820), pepper was widely planted in Guizhou, Hunan, Sichuan and Jiangxi provinces. It was recorded in Jiaqing that Jiangxi, Hunan, Guizhou and Sichuan had begun to "grow as vegetables".

During Daoguang's reign (1821-1850), the northern part of Guizhou was already in a situation of"every meal must be filled with peppers". The rice wrapped in grain was popular in Tongzhi. The dish used mostly bean curd, that is, water soaked salt and sea pepper, which was used to dip in water, a little like the sea pepper dip in Sichuan Fushun bean curd today.

In some areas of Hunan, hot pepper was not very common during the Jiaqing period, but it was more common among Daoguang, Xianfeng, Tongzhi and Guangxu. According to the Qing barnyard banknotes in the late Qing Dynasty, "people in Yunnan, Guizhou, Hunan and Sichuan loved spicy food", "people in Hunan and Hubei liked spicy food", and "people in Hunan and Hubei could not eat spicy food without pepper and mustard, so there was plenty of soup", indicating that people in Hunan and Hubei had become accustomed to spicy food in the late Qing Dynasty, and they even put pepper into soup.

The record of edible pepper in Sichuan was later than Hubei’s. Neither in the book of Yongzheng's Sichuan Tongzhi nor Jiaqing's Sichuan Tongzhi recorded the cultivation and eating of pepper, and the earliest recorded pepper may be in Jiaqing. From the perspective of the areas where pepper was planted and eaten in Jiaqing, Sichuan, they are mainly located in the Chengdu Plain and the Daba Mountains area in the south and southwest of Sichuan and the borders of Sichuan, Hubei and Shaanxi. After Daoguang, Xianfeng and Tongzhi, Sichuan's edible chilies began to become popular, and even chilies were "planted all over the mountains" in Sichuan. After Guangxu, Sichuan's edible chili was more common. In addition to being widely eaten, there were a lot of records of eating chili in the classic recipes. According to Fu Chongju's Chengdu Overview in the late Qing Dynasty, there were 1328 kinds of dishes in Chengdu at that time. Pepper has become one of the main condiments in Sichuan cuisine, including hot oil sea pepper, sea pepper noodles, etc., especially the double cooked pork in Sichuan cuisine was officially recorded in written records. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, eating pepper has become an important feature of Sichuan people's diet. Xu Xinyu's Records of Traveling in Sichuan recorded that "Sichuan people must choose the most spicy ones to eat, and every meal and dish must be hot."

When did Yunnan begin to eat spicy food? Zhenxiong, Yunnan, which is close to Guizhou, ate hot pepper during the Qianlong Period, but it was not very common in Yunnan during the Qianjia Period. There was no record of chilli in the Tongzhi of Yunnan during the Guangxu period, but people began to eat chilli in large quantities as early as the Guangxu period. According to the Records of Visiting Sichuan by Xu Xinyu in the late Qing Dynasty, his father found in Ya'an that the chili peppers transported into Yunnan every year through Ya'an, Sichuan, were "quantity is nearly hundreds of thousands. The amount of chili peppers eaten by Yunnan people is not less than that of Sichuan people". Therefore, Xu Ke's Qing barnyard banknote at the end of the Qing Dynasty said: "Yunnan, Guizhou, Hunan and Sichuan people are fond of spicy food." According to the records in the Textual Research on the Names and Facts of Plants, edible chili peppers had been planted in Jiangxi during the Jiaqing period. During the Guangxu period, edible chili peppers had become more common in Jiangxi, and now Jiangxi Nankang chili sauce is very famous.

Pepper has been introduced into China for about 400 years, but this foreign spice soon became popular all over China, taking the position of traditional Chinese prickly ash, ginger and cornus officinalis. The consumption of Chinese prickly ash was squeezed into Sichuan Basin, the hometown of Chinese prickly ash. Cornus officinalis almost completely withdrew from the stage of Chinese food spice, and the position of ginger was largely withdrawn from the diet. The introduction of chili into Chinese food is undoubtedly a food revolution. The powerful chili makes it impossible for any traditional spice to compete with it. The revolution was only a little slow due to the constraints of traffic and information at that time.

What about court dishes?
one book records the dishes used to celebrate the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month, including "Spicy Rabbit". However, there was no detailed description of what kind of dish it was. In the following Qing Dynasty, a dish named "Spicy Rabbit Silk" also appeared in Tioding Collection. Shredded chicken soup simmer, add yellow rice wine, soy sauce, onion, ginger juice, Chinese prickly ash, and soybean powder to finish the soup.

No pepper is used, but pepper is added, so the name of the dish has the word "spicy". It should have the same taste as the "spicy" in the "spicy live rabbit" in the "Records of Drinking". There are two kinds of flavors without chilli. As for whether rabbit meat is used, why the dish is called "Spicy Rabbit" is an unsolved mystery. In the Records of Drinking, dozens of famous dishes in the imperial court are listed. In addition to the aforementioned "Spicy Rabbit", there is also a dish called "Spicy Soup", which is a soup to drink every morning to prevent cold in November. Nowadays, ginger soup is often drunk to prevent cold. The "hot soup" here may be of the same type. As for other places where pepper is used, none of them has been found.

===Conclusion===
Even in the Qing Dynasty, pepper still did not enter the court. The Manchu people did not even have the habit of eating mustard seeds. "A Dream of Red Mansions" describes the dishes made of vinegar, as well as various other cooking methods, but hot dishes never appeared.

===Introduction===
In the 5,000 years of Chinese culture, music has slowly flowed with the history to modern times. Whenever you hear an ancient rhythm, it is like going back in time to the days of small bridges and flowing water and talented people. This is our own Chinese beauty. The Rites of Zhou states that ancient Chinese musical instruments can be divided into the "eight tones" - gold, stone, earth, leather, silk, wood, lagen and bamboo. The chime is a representative of "gold", and is also known as a "national treasure"! Emerging from a time of turmoil, it has been passed down for thousands of years.
The chime is an ancient traditional percussion instrument made of bronze, with a combination of flat round bells of different sizes, each with a different pitch. In two dimensions, the chimes are narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, with uneven edges around the mouth. Most of the chimes are beautifully carved and decorated, or lined with elaborate drums, which are known as bell-nipples.

First appearing in the Shang dynasty, the chime was born in the midst of chaos and was popularised in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States, where it remained in use until the Ming and Qing dynasties. It can be said to have emerged from the chaotic times and to have been handed down for thousands of years. The early chimes were mostly made up of three or five pieces, and could play simple old tunes.

The chimes of the Ming and Qing dynasties were completely different from the traditional chimes, not only in form but also in tone, and by this time the music of the chimes had long since lost the majesty and coolness of the chimes. Chimes were generally used for courtly music, and in the early days, they were used for major occasions such as conquests, banquets and rituals, so that in ancient times they were also a symbol of status and power, and only the ruler had the right to use them. In the Poetic Edda, there is a phrase that refers to the chimes: "I use the chimes and drums of music to please my fair lady", and they were also used in large banquets and dances.

Most of the chimes from the Western Zhou period are oval in shape with a narrow top and a wide bottom, and a large number of performance scores were recorded on the bodies of the chimes, the ultimate purpose of which was to facilitate rehearsal and performance, and which accidentally became the carrier of chime culture. From the Qin dynasty onwards the chimes gradually pursued aesthetic appearance, neglecting the effect of the sound itself, and the Qing dynasty's lack of attention to ritual and music led to the gradual loss of many of the finest bronze chime casting techniques. During the Han dynasty, chimes fell into decline, and although they were still a symbol of the status of the emperor, they were far removed from the chimes of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, and were even inferior to those of the pre-Qin period in terms of silencing. After more than 500 years at its peak, the chimes still went into decline.

From the Song dynasty onwards, foreign musical instruments flowed in and other traditional instruments emerged, gradually eliminating chimes from court performance, and by the Qing dynasty they were shaped into mere decorative objects that could not be played. The art of bell casting was lost from the Song dynasty, but when the Zeng Houyi Chimes were unearthed, the Chinese Cultural Affairs Bureau set up the Zeng Houyi Chimes Reproduction Research Group, which succeeded in reproducing a full set of Zeng Houyi Chimes in 1984, and the technology of bell casting came back to light.The recovery of the chime casting technique has led to an increasing focus on the preservation and promotion of traditional culture.

Mr. Robert, husband of the famous female singer Ms. Gong Linna, first saw a replica of the Zeng Houyi Chimes in 2005 and heard the sound of the chimes live, the teacher was instantly blown away, after which he became addicted to chime music and couldn't help himself, wanting to successfully put chime music symbols in modern society, creating "Mountain Ghost" in 2007, and in 2009, with the help of the Hong Kong Orchestra and the National Orchestra Together, they created "Bell Music and Harmony". In 2018, Ms. Gong Linna and Robert used chimes to perfectly interpret Qu Yuan's "Li Sao" on the programme "Classics Flow", allowing the ancient sound that had been dormant for thousands of years to appear on modern television programmes and allowing audiences across the country to appreciate the charm of chimes.

At the Shanghai World Expo the chimes were the face of modern music, and Professor Kong Fan from the University of Science and Technology of China brought his research team to the Shanghai Expo to combine the chimes with modern technology to create a magnetic levitation chime that was a breath of fresh air. With a strong magnet made of rare earth roundness in each chime, which determines the levitating position of the bronze chimes through high speed detection thousands of times per second, this group of magnetically levitated chimes has once again amazed the world.

===Conclusion===
The sound of chimes, which has been flowing in history for 2,500 years, has finally reappeared through modern technology, presenting us with a visual feast. Among the four ancient civilisations, Chinese culture is the most completely preserved, adapting and surviving in modern times to the last, all of which, apart from the research led by scientists, is inseparable from the many, many heirs and lovers of traditional culture. In this age of colourfulness and diversity, traditional culture deserves its place too!

===Introduction===
Live streaming was not initially a product of the network. In The Radio and Television Dictionary, live streaming refers to the post-synthesis and broadcast of radio programs at the same time, and live television broadcast is the broadcast method of producing and broadcasting television programs simultaneously with the occurrence and development process of events.” It can be seen that live streaming firstly appeared on traditional media radio and television stations.
On January 1, 2008, the General Office of the State Council put forward a notice proposing to promote the integration of the Three Networks (telecommunication network, computer network and cable TV network). Until today, the integration of the three networks has experienced twelve years of development. Under the background of the continuous progress of interconnection technology, cell phone has been transformed from a simple communication tool to a multifunctional device integrating communication, TV watching and the internet access. With the increasing number of cell phones, the number of cell phone users also continues to go high, providing support for the development of cell phone live steaming. Taking advantage of a large number of live streaming platforms, the connotation of network live streaming also transformed from the early program broadcast into the broadcast of life scenes that the general public can participate in, which is a leap forward.
===Categories of Living Streaming===
(1)According to the main body of live streaming, it can be divided into star live streaming, net celebrity live streaming and common people live streaming. Star live is held by actors, athletes and other celebrities with a certain degree of fame and attention in the mass media, the audience of star live is mainly fans. The purpose of star live is often to let fans see the daily life of the stars to close the distance. Net celebrity live is held by the network celebrities who have become popular in micro blogging, short video platform or other social platforms, and some of them are professional anchors. As opposed to stars and net celebrities, the rest of the ordinary anchors who do not have great influence and attention are collectively referred to as common people live.
(2)According to the live content, live streaming can be generally divided into four categories: live show, live game, live pan-life broadcast and live streaming sale. Show live is the earliest type of live streaming, and it requires the anchors to show their talents. Game live is about electronic games, and most of them are competitive games and it has a certain threshold for both parties - the game anchor is generally required to be proficient or at least familiar with the game being broadcast; the audience is at least aware of the game, otherwise they cannot participate well in the live viewing. Pan-life live streaming refers to the live streaming that shows daily life, where the anchor simply sings, casually chats, eats and shows their daily life. It is live and casual and with no rehearsal, and anyone with a device can become an anchor by registering an account. As the fastest growing type of live streaming since 2016, pan-life live streaming is leading the wave of live streaming with a “mobile live for all” approach. Live streaming sale is an emerging commercial activity which aims to sale goods, and it is all about introduction and exhibition of products.
===Patterns of Interaction in Live Streaming===
(1)Get connected: anchor to anchor interaction
This is a way of interaction between two anchors to achieve a more interesting live broadcast and share fans through a common broadcasting room. It is to connect the live rooms of two hosts, and the way to get connected is that the host can choose to connect with a host they are familiar with or be randomly matched by the system. For viewers, they can see both hosts on the same live screen at the same time. The anchors will chat, sing, play games and so on to make the live streaming more interesting, and at the same time the anchor will also recommend their own fans to pay attention to the other anchor. The fans watching the live broadcast do not have the loyalty between traditional idols and fans, so the anchors can achieve the purpose of sharing fans and maximizing benefits.
(2)Pop-ups and gifts: fan-anchor interaction
The explosive growth of User Generated Content (UGC) attracts large-scale internet users to join the content interaction, and “gifts and pop-ups” constitute the basic ecology of live streaming culture. Pop-ups gives fans an opportunity to express their emotions, and gifts is another important way for fans to interact with anchors, which first existed in original literature websites, and then was introduced as an innovative payment function by self-media and gradually introduced by major platforms.
(3)Melt media interaction: the establishment of cross-platform fan group
Senior anchors do not limit themselves to interacting with their fans briefly on the live platform, but will establish WeChat or QQ fan groups to achieve cross-platform interaction. The establishment of fan groups can make the interaction between fans and anchors more intimate. The fan groups of popular anchors have certain requirements in terms of access qualifications, such as the amount of bounty, frequency of interaction, etc., and anchors will also use fan groups to give back to their fans, such as more interaction, red packets or other benefits.
===Conclusion===
On the one hand, live streaming has brought many beneficial effects to people’s lives. People have a new way to learn and express themselves. And also its platform advantages can make it a disseminator of excellent culture and promote people towards cultural confidence and cultural self-awareness.
On the other hand, the trend of network live entertainment is obvious, and overly entertaining and vulgarized content is popping up, which to some extent hinders the spread and popularization of socialist core values. Therefore, restrictions should be taken to standardize live streaming.

===Introduction===
I. Origin and Development of Imagery in Chinese Classical Poems

Imagery is the soul and the core of the Chinese classical poetry. Based on the actual experiences and feelings, imagery exceeds the simple physical image, and it’s a reflection of the poet's imagination and divergence thinking. In Chinese literary tradition, the expression “Yi Xiang”(意象) has existed since ancient times, and it “has long been a concern of Chinese poetry from its very beginning.” (Pauline Yu 1987,3) It’s used to “denote a verbal expression that evokes a mental picture or recalls a physical sensation, not necessarily visual” (James Y. Liu 1962,101) Actually, the imagery and its theoretical system have undergone three upgrades, and then gradually developed into the one we’re familiar with, i.e. the objective things in poetry fusing the poet's subjective feelings and aspirations.

The first theoretical promotion occurred in the Pre-Qin times, based on Zhuangzi’s “words don’t exhaust meaning” and “The Sages established the images to give fullness of the concepts in their minds” in Commentaries on the Book of Changes (Stephen Owen 1992,31). In Wei and Jin Dynasties, the second promotion was marked by Wang Bi’s further illustration on the triadic structure of “the concept in mind”(意), “images”(象) and “words”(言) in his book Elucidation of the Images(《明象》), which indicates that words exists for images, and images for the concept in mind. It was Liu Xie in Han Dynasty who exactly introduced image into literary and endowed it with aesthetic connotation, which signals the third theoretical promotion. In his book Carving a Dragon with a Literary Mind, Liu stated “a uniquely discerning carpenter wield his axe with his eye to the concept-image”.

II. Interpretation of Typical Imageries

1. Botanical Imagery

1) Willow
Willow is always employed to express sentiment attached to parting. In Han Dynasty, there formed the custom of “breaking off a willow branch for leave-taking”. The pronunciation of “柳” in Chinese is similar with “留”, which means “(want someone) to stay”, endowing the willow with sensibilities of missing someone or the sadness of departure.

2) Wutong trees
Wutong, also known as plane or Chinese parasol, is closely associated with autumn and a melancholy mood. Wutong usually conveys a sense of grief and desolation. And the half dead wutong can be compared to the middle-aged widower or widow.

3) Chrysanthemum
Blooming in autumn, the Chrysanthemum often symbolizes loftiness, constancy, integrity and nobility of a character as well as a secluded life, especially in Tao Yuanming’s poems.
By the way, some botanical imageries, such as bamboo, pine trees and plum-blossom, share similar symbolic meaning to some extent.

2. Animal Imagery

1) Cuckoo

Cuckoo, also named “子规” or “子鹃” in Chinese, is associated with farewell because its call sounds like the pronunciation of “不如归去”(bùrúguīqù), which means “It’s better to return.” Wandering travelers far away from hometown will be touched when hearing such sounds, which evoke their distress and homesickness. Moreover, when departing with friends or relatives, people are always sorrowful, hoping they can soon return.

2) Crane
For one thing, the natural image of the crane, full of vitality and soaring in the sky, often embodies the poet’s yearning for a free and secluded life. For another, the crane symbolizes longevity and mourning, showing poet’s life-worrying consciousness. Additionally, as an important cultural icon of Taoism, the crane is associate with immortality, which reflects the holiness of Taoism and the religious ideal of pursuing the freedom and the eternity.

3) Swallow
Swallows are migratory birds whose return heralds the coming of spring. Therefore, swallow imagery, firstly, is to render the poet's appreciation of the pleasant spring. Besides, swallows often appear in pairs in people’s houses or under the eaves, hence two swallows embody an enviable love or love-sickness. Finally, in some poems, the swallow represents the poet’s indignation about vicissitudes of the past as well as the country’s subjugation and destruction.

3. Inanimate Imagery

1) Moon
The moon, with various appellations in Chinese, such as “玉弓”, “银盘”, “婵娟”, etc., is one of the most commonly-used imageries in Chinese poetry. It implicates the general Chinese national mentality and denotes the obscured illusions of the Chinese spiritual homestead. The moon implies homesickness, especially when it is full, which symbolizes a perfect home life or a happy union. On the contrary, a waning moon indicates destitution or separation. Even today, those who are far from home would feel homesick and forlorn at the sight of the moon, just like the writer of “Still Night Thought”.

2) River
In China, the Yangtze River and the Yellow River are two main rivers, which originates from the southwest of China hence flowing eastward. So the imagery of river appears always accompanied with words “flowing eastward”. Sometimes poets use it as a metaphor for a moral, hermetic life, obstruction or time. Also, it’s a symbol of separation with sadness, because in ancient China poets usually send their friends or families off by the riverside.

3) East wind and west wind
Due to geographical factors, “east wind” in China, as a sign of spring, brings warmth and speeds the greening of plants and spurs love. Conversely, “west wind” in China symbolizes chilly coldness in winter, which is connected with something bleak and desolate.

===Conclusion===
There’re three major theoretical upgrades before the imagery theory we understand today gradually formed. Due to its rich connotations, profound philosophy and unique spirit, the proper comprehension of imagery is the key to appreciate and experience the charm of poetry. Moreover, the study of imagery is of great significance to the study of Chinese classical literature as well as the inheritance of Chinese traditional culture.

===Introduction===
The Chinese people consider tigers as power, luck, righteousness, valour and vigour in their country, so they use anything about tiger to avoid disasters. From the ancient China, “tiger culture” has begun to spread.
At the beginning, tiger culture was originated from totems. During Yin and Zhou Dynasty, our ancestors engraved tiger patterns on bronze wares; In the military dimensions, the emperors used Military Tiger Talisman(虎符) to move their military troops, and it also means the sovereign power of the ruling class; The ancient people also engraved tiger patterns on eaves and used those eaves to build houses, which means their houses peaceful and auspicious; During Chinese New Year, the Chinese people not only paste “Door God” on their doors, but also paste pictures of a tiger. In folk, Chinese parents make tiger head shoes for their children, because “The folk believes that ‘dog doesn’t eat dog’(虎毒不食子). For the safety and healthy growth of children, people make tiger-faced shoes and hats to knock on luck, drive away evil and avoids evil.” (Liu Jia, 2010, 201) Therefore, tiger-faced shoes play the role in Chinese culture: to bring luck and auspiciousness, to prevent disasters from children, and to make a hope that children could grow up healthily and happily.
===Origin===
The origin of tiger-faced shoes, or Hutou Xie, can date back to the Stone Age.There are a lot of fairy tales about tiger-faced shoes. According to Quan Yue(2022, 148-151), once upon a time, a young boatman whose surname is Shi lived on the bank of the Yellow River, and he helped the local residents cross the river every day. One day, an old lady in a hurry to cross the river to ask a midwife to give a birth to her daughter-in-law’s child. However, Unexpectedly that the old lady was dizzy when her was on the boat, so the young boatman had to help the old woman to ask a midwife alone. Then the second day, on the birth of her grandson, the old lady sent a painting to the young boatman as a present for his kindness.
In that painting, there was a beautiful girl. And the next day, the beautiful girl became a real girl standing in front of the boatman, and then, they got married. Several years later, a local official wanted to rob of the beauty, so the girl ran into the picture again. Then the official roared to the picture: “if you do not out, I will break you into pieces!” The girl was extremely afraid.
While at the boatman’s home, the old lady made a pair of red shoes which shaped like a tiger’s head to the boatman’s son, and said: “Putting on the pair of red shoes to save you mom!.” After that, the little boy ran to save his mom, and when he came in the official’s home, he was angry and suddenly, his shoes became a fierce tiger! The tiger ate the official in one bite, and finally, the boy saved his mom. The family reunited happily. This is one of the origin of tiger head shoes.
===Design===
In most areas of China, the main colors of tiger-faced shoes are red and yellow. While tailors sew the mouth, nose and eyes of the tiger with thick threads. “When making tiger-faced shoes, some people like decorating tigers’ eyes and ears with rabbit fur. With three colors of red, yellow and white, the tiger-faced shoes look vivid.”(Xu Xiren, 2017, 144) At the same time, different people use different colors to decorate the shoes. For example, the Han people often use yellow cloth to decorate tiger head shoes, while the Yi people like using white cloth.
As to the appearance of tiger-faced shoes, in general, the appearance of a pair of tiger-faced shoes is tiger-liked pattern, on which has eyes, mouth, nose and beard. While in different places, tiger patterns on shoes have slight differences, for example, “In north China, the design of tiger head is more exaggerated and more rugged, while in abundant Jiangnan, the design is more delicate.”(Wang Chenlin, 2019, 69) Chen Hui also described that in Henan province, tiger head shoes have rough shape and strong local flavor; in Shandong province, the head of shoes is more prone to be like cat head, lion head or dragon head.(Chen Hui, 2017, 192)
===Implied meaning and value===
In traditional Chinese culture, people attach great importance to their children. Parents hope their children will have bright future and also, they hope they can be taken good care of by their kids when they are old. So parents have high expectations for their kids.
When children are little babies, their parents use kinds of ways which might be superstitious to protect them from dangers. For example, when a baby is born, the first person who holds the baby is serious in China, because the Chinese people think the behavior will pass good luck, a healthy body and so on to the kid, so they require the person who is the first to hold their new-born baby is of good health and good fortune and so on.
Therefore, tiger-faced shoes are of the same significance for Chinese parents. Tiger, the king of beasts, has the implied meaning of good luck and power in China, so parents make tiger-shoes for their little baby to prevent dangers, bad luck and disease. Meanwhile, according to Yin Zhuoran, he said a pair of tiger-faced shoes “有鼻子有眼” (has a nose and big eyes), which means the one who wears it is a complete and healthy person.(Yin Zhuoran, 2010, 185) Yang Xueqin also referred to that “In folk art, women's fabric products, embroidery, paper cut and other designs, follow the idea symbolized by the metaphor, and are subject to the wishes of happiness and luck...”(Yang Xueqin, 1990, 179) Such statements implied that those who wear tiger head shoes will be a healthy, auspicious and happy person.
Also, the shape of the shoes is matched with children’s growing feet, letting children walking freely.
Tigers have strong life, and the Chinese people praise highly of it, which can be shown in some Chinese idioms such as “生龙活虎” “如龙似虎” “龙腾虎跃” (all of these idioms mean someone has vitality and vigour) and so on. All of these idioms contain a high appreciation for tigers, so parents hope their new-born babies have strong life just like tigers. Also, tigers have a positive impression in Chinese people’s hearts, so they also hope their kids could have the same good characters with tigers in the world.
===Conclusion===
As a part of traditional Chinese culture, tiger-faced shoes has been handed down by the Chinese people from generation to generation, and people innovate it in different ways. Ding Xiaojia once mentioned in his article: “Tiger shaped pillow and tiger-shaped earthenware are very like modeling of tiger-head shoes in spirit. People are using another way to express their respect for tiger-head shoes’ auspicious meaning.”(Ding Xiaojia, 2015, 628) The combination of traditional craftsmanship with constant innovation has kept the vitality of tiger-faced shoes. And with the shoes, Chinese parents place the best wishes on their children. so, in today’s world, it is important for us to inherit and spread the culture of tiger-faced shoes, as well as making innovation constantly. Only doing these will our fine traditional Chinese culture flourish.

===Introduction===
When it comes to “horseface skirt (also mamianqun)”, you may be amazed by its name. So why is it called that? Some people believe that it’s because the skirt doors look quite similar to “mamian”, which refers to the defensive structure of the ancient city wall. While others think that its middle skirt door, which is a rectangle, is like a long horse face. Therefore, this part of skirt is named as “mamian”, and the skirt itself is called mamianqun (also horseface skirt) (Cai Liming 1993,379).

The word “Ma Mian” first appeared in the ''Ming Palace''(Qi Ziyu 2012，2). And the history of horseface skirt can be traced back to “spin skirt” in the Song Dynasty. So, what’s spin skirt? Actually, it is a functional dress designed for women’s donkey riding. Meng Hui said, “This type of Song skirt is composed of two equal but independent trains. When making a skirt, the two parts are partially stacked together and sewn to the waist (Caoxue,Wang Qunshan 2016,109).” Because of its shape and structure, it’s considered to be the embryonic form of horseface skirt. In Ming Dynasty, the horseface skirt gradually formed. With its simple style and beautiful color, it impressed people with its elegance. From the royal nobles to the common people, everyone wore horseface skirts. However, in terms of the texture, decoration, and color, there were strict differences among classes. Since the foundation of the Qing Dynasty, horseface skirt evolved from a general skirt for men and women to a skirt only for women, and more forms appeared, such as pleated skirt, yuehua skirt, and fengwei skirt. In the 21st century, to some extent, the rise of Hanfu movement has once again promoted horseface skirt, and it’s still favored by world people.

====The Structure of Horseface Skirt====
“The Yi (the upper garment) and Shang (the lower skirt)”is one of the clothing forms in Chinese civilization, and horseface skirt is a kind of “Shang”, which is mainly composed of four parts, namely, the skirt door, the skirt flank, the skirt couplet and the waistband. There are 4 skirt doors at the front, back, inside and outside, overlapping each other. The two skirt flanks refer to the side folds of the skirt. And two skirt couplets are two pieces, which are partially stacked together and sewn to the waist. While the waistband functions to gird the waist with the help of beltloops. It is this special design that allows the wearer to move freely without being too revealing，which reflects the implicit and introverted national temperament of the Chinese nation.

====The Patterns of Horseface Skirt====
Let’s move on, and learn about its patterns! There are two types of horseface skirt patterns -- separate embroidery patterns and large embroidery patterns,among which the separate embroidery patterns account for the majority. Each pattern conveys a different meaning. Taking the animal patterns “dragon” and “phoenix” as an example, in the long history of China, dragon and phoenix are considered to be auspicious. They are seen to be the symbols of prosperity, solemnity and power. Therefore, these patterns are mostly found in the clothes of ancient emperors and their concubines. Taking the pattern of “fish” as another example, fish harmonizes with "Yu"（in mandarin）,which conveys the good meaning of having a surplus for the next year in China. People also embroider some plants and flowers on their horseface skirts, such as our national flower peony, which represents wealth and nobility; the undefiled lotus, which symbolizes purity; the golden chrysanthemum, which represents longevity; and lily, which represents sacredness and holiness, friendship and a bright future (Sun Hui ,Wu Yue 2017,11).

====The Colors of Horseface Skirt====
Generally speaking, in terms of color, horseface skirt can be divided into solid color horse face skirt and colorful horseface skirt (such as yuehua skirt). Horseface skirts are always gorgeous in color, mostly red, followed by blue and other colors(Zhang Pei，Yang Jingyi 2022,80).That’s because the red color represents joy and auspiciousness, which can bring people hopes and wishes for a better life in the future, and give them a sense of happiness. Therefore, it seems that Chinese people naturally love the red color instead of some other dark colors, such as black. Nowadays, young and creative designers are making the horseface skirt more colorful, beautiful and attractive. They are very skillful at striking a wonderful balance between cold and warm colors, and pay attention to the contrast of colors with different brightness and purity, thus making more peoplef fall in love with horseface skirt.

===Conclusion===
The horseface skirt did originate from China and has a very long history. While in July, Dior appropriated Chinese horseface skirt culture and insisted that its collection was an original design, which infuriated Chinese students who took to the streets to protest, demanding respect for Chinese culture. It is this event that prompts me to write this passage. And I know the passage maybe not comprehensive due to the limitation of words, but I still sincerely hope that readers can gain something from it, such as its development history, structure, etc. And I hope more people will love Chinese horseface skirt and spread it to the world.

That’s all! Thank you for your careful reading!

==The Rise of ‘China Chic’: A Case Study of Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games==
<center>周晓兰 Zhou Xiaolan,202270081682.</center>
===Abstract===
‘China Chic’ is a term that describes the trend of China-centric design, incorporating unique cultural elements into the latest trends. With the growing popularity of China’s native fashion trends, more young people are paying attention to traditional Chinese culture. And the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games can be seen as a good example of how the world has embraced China Chic. This paper focuses on the rise of China Chic, taking Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games as an example.

“国潮”之崛起：以2022北京冬奥会为例
===摘要===
“国潮”将独特的中国文化元素融入最新潮流，代表着以中国文化为中心的设计趋势。随着中国本土时尚潮流的日益流行，越来越多的年轻人开始关注中国传统文化。而2022北京冬奥会恰如其分地展现了国潮正在融入世界潮流。本文将以2022北京冬奥会为例，探究国潮之崛起。
===关键词===
国潮，中国传统文化，北京冬奥会
===Introduction===
China Chic, or Guochao, is a new type of youth culture with ‘China’ as the core, ‘Chic’ as the expression, ‘culture + technology’ as the driving force, and ‘integration + innovation’ as the main direction of development(Cao Wenfang 2022, 92). And the impact of China Chic has been expanded across various categories, including obvious ones like fashion and cosmetics, and others like architecture, technology, automobiles, and so on. As it develops, China Chic increasingly manifests Chinese people’s ambition of reviving traditional heritage in a modern context and reflecting the profound pride in their national identity (Coco Wu, Harry Kinnear, Maya Madhusoodan, 2020). Incorporating unique cultural elements into the latest trends, Beijing Winter Olympics serves as a good example of the rise of China Chic. China took the chance to introduce its most distinctive cultural elements, through the Games’ logo, mascot, ceremonies and so on. And this paper will introduce the China Chic in the event, through Games’ opening ceremony, mascot, and sports clothing.
===The 24 Solar Terms in the Opening Ceremony===
The 24 solar terms, having been developed throughout Chinese history since about 3,000 years ago and listed on the UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2016, are so important to Chinese people that it appears both creative and natural for Zhang Yimou to employ and showcase them as a unique part of Chinese civilization to the world (Yang Yang, 2022). Hailed as China’s fifth greatest invention, the solar terms developed by ancient Chinese as a calendar to guide agricultural production and reflect some natural phenomena and human life.

The opening ceremony started with a countdown of the 24 solar terms instead of using numbers, delighting the audience, as the first of the 24 solar terms-- “Beginning of Spring” fell on this very day. The countdown of the 24 solar terms shows the unique understanding of Chinese nation towards time. What’s more, Zhang used beautiful poems and proverbs to explain the characteristics of each solar term, while incorporating modern technology to show them in video. Many netizens praised this idea as a show of Chinese Romance. Such combination of traditional culture and modern technology shows the vitality of Chinese culture and the wisdom of Chinese nation.
===Mascot===
Being eyecatchers that help create an Olympic atmosphere, mascots serve to demonstrate the ideas of the host, and the history and culture of the host country (Yin Ziqiang 2022, 10). Bing Dwen Dwen is the panda mascot for Beijing Winter Olympics. Bing means ice in Mandarin, representing purity and strength. Dwen Dwen means sincerity, health, vitality and loveliness, representing the strong body, tenacious will and inspiring spirit of athletes. As a national emblem for China and a significant symbol for foreigners to learn about China, giant pandas are under first-class protection, revealing core Chinese values of harmony between man and nature.

Bing Dwen Dwen wears a full body shell out of ice which connotes both winter sports and China’s space dream. Its head shell is decorated with flowing bright-colored lines symbolizing the track of winter sports and the 5G technology. What’s more, colorful ribbons and the black and white panda present traditional Chinese aesthetic thought of contrast and unity. Bing Dwen Dwen not only captures the profound cultural heritage, but also shows the Olympic spirit and the development of modern technology.

Thanks to its chubby and lovable look, Bing Dwen Dwen has soon become a smash hit around the world. Bing Dwen Dwen souvenirs have been sold out in online stores and customers have to wait in long lines at offline stores to try their luck. As a new online celebrity representing the Winter Olympics, cute and adorable Bing Dwen Dwen was liked and followed by athletes and journalists from around the world who were incredibly enthusiastic about taking photos with the mascot. Bing Dwen Dwen even became a trending Olympic topic on Twitter, building a bridge of communication across national borders and bringing China Chic to the world.
===Sports Clothing===
During Beijing Winter Olympics, Young athletes wore sports clothing bearing Chinese elements, such as dragons, pandas, tigers, the Great Wall, traditional Chinese painting, and Beijing Opera facial makeup, which surprised world audience. Perfectly combining the functionality, nationality and artistry, the sports clothing can realize the free wearing under the change of temperature and scene, which helps to enhance the performance of Team China (Ma Yan, 2021).

It is worth mentioning that the “golden dragon coat” of Eileen Gu, a rising Chinese sports star, spreads China Chic to the world. The “golden dragon coat” was designed by herself to spread Chinese culture, featuring a golden Chinese Dragon on the reverse of the clothing. Dragon is a symbol of China, and descendants of dragon refer to Chinese nation (Yin Sairui 2022, 50). It reveals the spirit of forging ahead. In Chinese culture, gold symbolizes nobility, brilliance and glory. Therefore, the golden dragon coat serves as a brilliant display of Chinese culture. What’s more, incorporating modern fashion trend in its style, this coat is a perfect example of China Chic. Gu’s spectacular performance in the Olympic Games also offers a great opportunity to show China Chic to the world. And this coat is now in the collection of the Olympic Museum in Lausanne, Switzerland. As a result, more and more people start to pay attention to Chinese fashion brands which present rich culture and traditional elements of China through the intuitive of dressing (Zijing Han, Duo Xu, Rujia Zheng, 2022).
===Conclusion===
Beijing Winter Olympics introduces China Chic to the world and show the vitality of Chinese culture. It also demonstrates that Chinese culture is stepping onto the international stage. Therefore, it is necessary for China to take the advantage of China Chic to spread traditional Chinese culture, turning such youth culture into national culture.

<center> Zhou Zihao, 202270081702 </center>
===Abstract===
This chapter is on petting in Chinese history. Pets had been considered to be a component of Western lifestyle, and Chinese, maybe due to the notorious reputation for eating dogs, has been long labeled as "a land unfriendly for pets". It was documented that, however, Chinese, especially those in high society, have been keeping pets since anicent times. This paper attempts to give a descriptive view to the petting history of China.

===关键词===

===Introduction===
Chinese were thought not so pet-friendly as Westerners, especially for its notorious dog-eating, and petting is indeed never considered by people home or abroad as a long-prevailing habit of Chinese. In fact, even nowadays petting in China cannot be described as anything related to “popular”. According to 2021 Chinese Pet Industry White Paper, the number of dog-and-cat owners totalled to 68.44 million in 2021 and was expected to increase to 71.68 million which took up only 5.12% of China’s total population. Other “non-traditional” pets, say, birds, other small mammals, reptiles are even rarer to public sight. Even though pet-owner are still a small proportion in China, petting is surely gaining more and more attention publicly and politically.
===Historical Overview of Chinese Petting===
Petting hasn’t been a popular thing since ancient times. For an agricultural country like China, “unpragmatic” animals like dogs and cats used to be quite uncommon because they were not beneficial for farming (Custer, 2021). Nevertheless, there were a few famous pet-lovers documented for their adoration for certain animals. In Pre-Qin periods, the emperor Yi of Wei loved raising cranes. The elegant and purely-white bird was terribly doted on by the emperor Yi who even ranked them with their appearances and qualities and “remunerated” them in accordance with their given “official positions” (Zuo, 2007). Zang Wenzhong, a contemporary of Yi, was obsessed with another unusual animal¬¬—turtles. Like Yi the emperor, Zang cosseted his pets by accommodating the turtles in luxury palaces and that solicited commotion leading to his own doomed end. Interestingly their pampery was harshly chastised by Confucius as a breach of ethical conventions. At that time petting had been exclusive for upper classes with wealth and power who despite the stereotypes of abusing animals pampered their pets with obscene extravagancy. During the Tang Dynasty (AC 618¬¬¬—AC 907) the royal members started raising exotic animals tributed by foreigners as their pets such as elephants, lions, and rhinos in the palace. At the same time petting was gaining popularity among public, and it was presented by the paintings that some people from middle and lower classes had small-sized pets like chicken, dogs, and cats. Animals were no longer merely food resources and pets were more than a time killer but an emotional support and religious and spiritual symbol as well (Li, 2017). Literati would also rest their hopes and sentiments on certain animals in poems. With an increasing demand in petting, a pet-friendly system was also built to condemn the animal-abusers and to compromise who thus lost their pets. In the Ming Dynasty (AC 1368¬¬—AC 1644), Wen Zhenheng recorded then elegant lifestyle of upper literati in his book Zhang Wu Zhi and described their choices of pets in one chapter. In the book Wen deemed pets as “a necessary art for those who live in solitude amongst the hills and woods” (Wen, 2015). By “necessary”, however, Wen meant it for upper class still since the book was written for them. In the Qing Dynasty (AC 1636¬—AC 1912), Man people brought with them nomadic culture and horses and birds were the majority of their choices of pets (She, 2019). In late Qing Dynasty people carrying a bird cage were common to be seen in the teahouses in Beijing as the symbol of their social statue. During the Cultural Revolution in 1960s and 1970s, pets were regarded as the component of the lifestyle of capitalism and therefore strictly forbidden. Pet owners have no choice but to hide, abandon, and even kill their pets. It was surely the most terrible era for pets and their owners. Nowadays in the 21th Century more and more Chinese have pets. Research showed that the pet market in China has increased 60% every year (Pitt, 2021). Analysts also expected that China’s pet industry will multiply 10 times that of a decade ago to 66 billion dollars. Even though petting system in China is still immature and still some people regard pet as emotionless animals, a more convenient society is being built for animal-lovers. Moreover, pets can get new jobs in cat-or-dog café and even make an income on social media. People’s attitude towards pets also changed a lot. Take dogs as example. Chinese used to treat dog as a source of meat. However, today the majority of dogs are viewed as companions and usually treated as family members (Coren, 2018).
===Conclusion===
In conclusion, pets were rare in ancient China, and most people who had pets were those in higher classes. Their pets were uncommon and exotic animals such as birds and fishes instead of dogs and cats. It is since the Tang Dynasty that people from lower classes started to have small animals as pets. However, in ancient times pets gained little popularity in general. In modern times with the increase of middle class and the influence of western culture, people’s attitude towards pets changed and dogs and cats are more accepted by public. Even though China has not been the most pet-friendly country, a mature petting system is now being built.

==Opera:Lv opera(of Shandong Province)==
<center>庄昊康Zhuang Haokang, 202270081713</center>
===Abstract===
Lv Opera, also known as Yangqin and Qinxi Opera, is a national intangible cultural heritage, one of the eight major operas in China, and the most representative local opera in Shandong Province. It is popular in most parts of Shandong Province and parts of Jiangsu, Anhui and Northeast China. It originated in the Yellow River Delta in northern Shandong Province and evolved from Shandong Qinshu. Its music belongs to Banqiang, and it also sings Qupai. The main accompaniment instruments are Zhuiqin (the main string), Yangqin, Sanxian and Pipa, which are called "the four major pieces of Lv Opera".It is deeply loved by the broad masses of the people with its simple and vivid language, beautiful and pleasant singing voice.

===Key Words===
Lv Opera;Cultural Heritage;Opera;Music Forms;Performing Arts

===Introduction===
Lv Opera originated in the Yellow River Delta, where the Yan and Zhao cultures, the Sanjin culture and the recent Beijing and Tianjin cultures have merged, making this area a long and colorful history of folk art. Among these arts, "Shuo Shu" is especially popular among the masses, and the storytellers use the local language familiar to the masses to interpret stories that express the emotional life and social patterns of the Qilu people. Huimin County," there is mentioned: "rap music in the lower reaches of the Yellow River in this area is quite prosperous, more than fifty miles southwest of Binzhou not far from the Yellow River there is a Huji village (belonging to Huimin County), where every year to hold a 'book meeting' to Huji as a gathering place, hiring rap artists from around the world to come to sing ". According to local elders, the "Huji Book Fair" was traced back to the Yuan Dynasty, and was even more prosperous in the early Qing Dynasty, and is still an annual event in Huimin. It can be inferred that this "book fair" provided the conditions for the introduction of the qinshu panel style, which also laid the main position of Shandong qinshu in the cultural activities of the Yellow River Delta at that time, and the predecessor of Lv opera sprouted in such an environment.

In terms of the distribution of Lv opera in Shandong Province, the Qinshu is divided into the east, the south and the north to spread. The various documentary sources can be summarized that it was not until around 1913 that Guangrao and Boxing completed the establishment of the board cadence and the mode of make-up performance respectively, which marked the basic formation of the prototype of Lv opera.

The germination of Lv opera is the fruit of the geographical environment, folk customs and folk art traditions of the Yellow River Delta region, and is the crystallization of the wisdom of the working people of Guangrao and Boxing. Lv opera emerged here, flourished here and developed from here, precisely because of the performance form of South Road Qinshu as the foundation, plus the later development and consolidation of East Road and North Road Qinshu, which facilitated the process of the birth of Lv opera.

Because of the connection between Lv opera and Shandong Qinshu, the repertoire of early Lv opera was mostly adapted from Shandong Qinshu, and some of the repertoire was transplanted from other genres. This type of repertoire was mainly based on folklore, and was created orally by the artists of the time according to the local customs and customs. After the test of time, scholars now classify this category of repertoire as "traditional repertoire". After the establishment of New China, according to the national policy of that time, Lv opera also created some new plays in response to the current trend, which are called "modern plays". Lv opera is still being developed, and the plays with historical themes that appear on the stage today are born out of the increasing aesthetic demand of the audience and the national policy of melody. The repertoire of Shandong Lv opera can be divided into three categories: "traditional plays", "modern plays" and "new historical plays".

The singing method of Lv opera is the same for both male and female cavities, but the male cavity is mainly sung in real voice, while the female cavity is sung in a combination of real and falsetto voice, and is five degrees higher than the male cavity. Since Lv opera originated from the art of rapping, there is no distinction between "singing" and "reading" in the performance.

When singing, Lv opera focuses on setting up the cadence with words, bringing the voice with emotion, singing with singing, spitting out words clearly, speaking naturally, and sounding natural and smooth. Compared with the high and aggressive Qin cadence and the soft and distant Kunqu, the singing voice of Lv opera is more lyrical and lingering. It is often used for the glissando, trill and ornamentation, and it is important for the words to be correct. The combination of soft tone, trill, beating tone and overtone of the falling qin makes the whole singing stretching and beautiful. Shandong Lv opera has absorbed the artistic components of the clapper cavity, so it is also based on the board cavity, and its singing voice can be roughly divided into two categories: "Siping cavity" and "two boards".

Lv opera is mostly about small matters between parents and neighbors, so it is rare to see actors doing fighting on the stage of Lv opera, and the plays with more action are only exaggerated renditions of real-life actions. It was only after a large number of new historical dramas were created that more and more martial arts plays were seen on the stage of Lv opera. "Doing" and "fighting" are usually combined with each other in opera performances. The female roles require a higher level of "doing", such as "lying fish", which requires the actor to be skilled in terms of flexibility, balance and waist and leg strength.

After a hundred years of development, Lv Opera has been included in the list of intangible cultural heritage of China and is one of the eight major local operas in China, which can be said to be a small achievement. However, as an important member of Chinese traditional culture, it inevitably encounters various obstacles in the process of development. In order to pass on Lv opera better, it is inevitable that reasonable and effective countermeasures should be formulated in conjunction with the characteristics of the times.

===Conclusion===
The current situation of Lv Opera in Shandong province is not optimistic.Many professional Lv Opera troupes have been gradually renamed or merged,or even completely disappeared.The inheritance of Lv Opera has become increasingly difficult. The younger generation,who genuinely love Lv Opera and perform it,are also less and less.The audience is aging.Based on these conditions,it is not only necessary to carry out the task of promoting traditional culture to individuals,but also requires the government to increase its investment in culture and art, and introduce more effective policies.

===Abstract===
Lv Opera, also known as Yangqin and Qinxi Opera, is a national intangible cultural heritage, one of the eight major operas in China, and the most representative local opera in Shandong Province. It is popular in most parts of Shandong Province and parts of Jiangsu, Anhui[,] and Northeast China. It originated in the Yellow River Delta in northern Shandong Province and evolved from Shandong Qinshu. Its music belongs to Banqiang, and it also sings Qupai. The main accompaniment instruments are [z]huiqin (the main string), [y]angqin, [s]anxian and [p]ipa, which are called "the four major pieces of Lv Opera".[ ]It is deeply loved by the broad masses of the people with its simple and vivid language, beautiful and pleasant singing voice.

===Introduction===
Lv Opera originated in the Yellow River Delta, where the Yan and Zhao cultures, the Sanjin culture and the recent Beijing and Tianjin cultures have merged, making this area a long and colorful history of folk art. Among these arts, "[s]huo [s]hu" is especially popular [with] the masses, and the storytellers use the local language familiar to [the people] to interpret stories that express the emotional life and social patterns of the Qilu people. ["]Huimin County," [it] is mentioned[,] "rap music in the lower reaches of the Yellow River in this area is quite prosperous, more than fifty miles southwest of Binzhou[,] not far from the Yellow River[,] there is [ ] Huji village (belonging to Huimin County), where every year [there is held] a 'book meeting' [with] Huji as a gathering place[. They] hir[e] rap artists from around the world to come [and] sing ". According to local elders, the "Huji Book Fair" was traced back to the Yuan Dynasty, and was even more prosperous in the early Qing Dynasty, and is still an annual event in Huimin. It can be inferred that this "book fair" provided the [groundwork] for the introduction of the qinshu panel style, which also laid the [foundation for] Shandong qinshu in the cultural activities of the Yellow River Delta at that time, and [served as] the predecessor of Lv opera [which] sprouted in such an environment.

In terms of the distribution of Lv opera in Shandong Province, the Qinshu divided [and spread to] the east, the south and the north. The various documentary sources can be summarized [as stating] that it was not until around 1913 that Guangrao and Boxing completed the establishment of the board cadence[. The] mode of make-up performance [was also established at this time] respectively[. This] marked the basic formation of the prototype of Lv opera.

The germination of Lv opera is the fruit of the geographical environment, folk customs and folk art traditions of the Yellow River Delta region[. It is also] the crystallization of the wisdom of the working people of Guangrao and Boxing. Lv opera emerged here, flourished here[,] and developed from here, precisely because the performance form of South Road Qinshu [acted] as [its] foundation[. In addition,] the later development and consolidation of East Road and North Road Qinshu facilitated the process of the birth of Lv opera.

Because of the connection between Lv opera and Shandong Qinshu, the repertoire of early Lv opera was mostly adapted from Shandong Qinshu, and some of the repertoire was transplanted from other genres. This type of repertoire was mainly based on folklore, and was created orally by the artists of the time according to the local customs. After the test of time, scholars now classify this category of repertoire as "traditional repertoire". After the establishment of New China, according to the national policy of that time, Lv opera also created some new plays in response to the current trend, which are called "modern plays". Lv opera is still being develop[ing], and the plays with historical themes that appear on the stage today are born out of the increasing aesthetic demand of the audience and the national policy of melody [is there an actual government policy on melody?]. The repertoire of Shandong Lv opera can be divided into three categories: [traditional, modern, and new historical plays.]

The singing method of Lv opera is the same for both male and female cavities, but the male cavity is mainly sung in real voice, while the female cavity is sung in a combination of real and falsetto voice, and is five degrees higher than the male cavity. Since Lv opera originated from the art of rapping, there is no distinction between singing and reading in the performance.

When singing, Lv opera focuses on setting up the cadence with words, bringing the voice with emotion, singing with singing, [pronouncing] words clearly, speaking naturally [and smoothly.] Compared with the high and aggressive Qin cadence and the soft and distant Kunqu, the singing voice of Lv opera is more lyrical and lingering. It is often used for the glissando, trill and ornamentation[. It is also] important for the words to be correct. The combination of soft tone, trill, beating tone and overtone of the falling qin makes the whole singing stretching [consider a new word here to clarify your meaning for "stretching"] and beautiful. Shandong Lv opera has absorbed the artistic components of the clapper cavity, so it is also based on the board cavity, and its singing voice can be roughly divided into two categories: siping cavity and two boards.

Lv opera is mostly about small matters between parents and neighbors, so it is rare to see actors [doing fight scenes] on the stage of Lv opera, and the plays with more action are only exaggerated renditions of real-life [activities]. It was only after a large number of new historical dramas were created that more and more martial arts plays were seen on the stage of Lv opera. "Doing" and "fighting" are usually combined with each other in opera performances. The female roles require a higher level of "doing", such as "lying fish", which requires the actor to be skilled in terms of flexibility, balance[,] and [utilizes much] waist and leg strength.

After a hundred years of development, Lv Opera has been included in the list of [the] intangible cultural heritage of China and is one of the eight major local operas in China, which can be said to be [no?] small achievement. However, as an important member of Chinese traditional culture, it inevitably encounters various obstacles in the process of development. In order to [continue to] pass on Lv opera [effectively], it is [necessary] that reasonable and effective countermeasures should be formulated in conjunction with the characteristics of the times.

===Conclusion===
The current situation of Lv Opera in Shandong province is not [looking very] optimistic.[ ]Many professional Lv Opera troupes have been gradually renamed or merged,[ ]or even completely disappeared.[ ]The inheritance of Lv Opera has become increasingly difficult. The younger generation,[ ]who genuinely love[s] Lv Opera and perform[s] it,[ is] also [becoming smaller and smaller].[ ]The audience is aging.[ ]Based on these conditions,[ ]it is not only necessary to carry out the task of promoting traditional culture to individuals,[ ]but also requires the government to increase its investment in culture and art, and [to] introduce more effective policies.

==Chinese Culture and A Child’s Education==

<center> Wellsand, Benjamin, 202111080018 </center>

===Abstract===

The social conditions of China have never been more taxing when it comes to a decades-long engrained child education culture and a problematic rapidly aging population. The social constructs of the longstanding loyalty to kinship and interdependence of collectivism within China place a cyclical concern from parent to child as one looks out for the other to ensure a fruitful economic future. The 1950s one-child policy has not only served to slow birth rates but has inadvertently allowed for a significant amount of finances to be set aside for the future of an only child to ensure the desired monetary success. The Chinese Communist Party has recognized the challenges the future of the country faces as a result of past policies and is seeking to revolutionize the education culture in order to permit Chinese families to grow without fear of missing out on a profitable and fulfilling future for the entire family unit. The modern-day CCP and the ancient philosopher, Confucius, align in their understanding of the vital role that the family plays in the future health of Chinese society.

===Key Words===

Collective Culture; Filial Piety; Kinship Culture; Private Education; Standardized Testing

===Introduction===

In Chinese culture, the family name is displayed prominently before the individual’s given name as a clear indicator of the honor given to the family unit and the collective nature by which the individual is viewed within foundational societal institutions. China is a culture that is overtly centered on kinship. “Male offspring were especially valued for their role in carrying on the family name, explains Li Liu of Beijing Normal University, “without a male heir, a family line originating from its ancestors is terminated, and the family’s place in the universe gets lost forever.” (2007: 57) China is world-renown for having the largest population. Beginning in the 1950s, the population grew on a steep trajectory from 540 million to 940 million by 1976. The booming industrialization caused concern of famine and housing shortages as more people were expected to start searching for higher-paying urban jobs as opposed to working on farms. In response to these concerns, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) started limiting births provincially in 1979 and finally standardized the one-child policy in 1980 which limited ethnic Chinese to only one child per couple. The fertility rate dropped from 6.1 in 1990 to 1.16 in 2021. (Master & Zhang 2022)

It is the cultural importance placed upon a male heir to carry on the family name that explains the resulting current skewed sex ratio. (Statista 2021) Charles Kraft shares, “Family and relatives are the big things to [kinship cultures]. Those with family are wealthy (whether or not they have any money).” (1996: 121) Great financial responsibility is placed upon a son’s family who is seeking to find a wife for him. 房子 (house), 车子 (car), and 票子 (money) are viewed as the requirements that should be met in order for a daughter to agree to take a man as her husband. While housing prices have steadied (Aljazeera 2022), the job market continues to be a challenge do to an economic slow from the COVID-19 pandemic. (Bloomberg News 2022)

There is an inordinate amount of competition in children’s education that accompanies these high social demands. Laurie Chen (2018) reports that more than sixty percent of primary school children (up to seventy percent in larger cities) were tutored outside of the classroom and parents paid an average of 120,000 RMB on up to 300,000 RMB for extracurricular education. The 双一流 (Double First-Class Initiative) higher education ranking leaves limited space for academic success. Zhang Duanhong (2019), writes of “the ‘exhausting high school, carefree university’ paradigm, in which university life is treated as a reward for making it through the rigors of the country’s college entrance exam.” The 90 percent graduation rate further limits the space available in universities and increased entry competition. The highly competitive nature in higher education has conditioned both sexes to pursue the greatest quality of education and the highest paid positions obtainable. Students must place their entire life on hold and focus all attention on study.

To ease the high societal demands of childrearing and encourage population growth, the CCP has made significant policy changes in areas such as private education (Koty 2021), maternity leave (Huang & Huang 2021), afterschool childcare (Zhang 2021), along with child subsidies (Ma 2022). Yet it remains an uphill battle to change the social conditioning of a country built around a single-child family. The 鸡娃 (chicken baby) parenting mentality continues on despite best efforts to curb this longstanding trend. (Feng 2021) Private education has not disappeared but has simply undergone a transformation as is the case with English tutors turned online product salespeople. (Jia 2022) Private education companies are believed to shift as well from educators to a rebranding as providers of AI products, software, and services for public education institutions. (Knox 2021)

The philosopher, Confucius, upon whose teaching pillars Chinese society is built, was a strong advocate of the family. He recognized human flourishing occurring within five complex relationships and three of these are familial: father/son, elder/younger brother, and husband/wife. Confucius felt that it was “in the context of the family that we acquire the building blocks for navigating the wildly complex relational networks that comprise human society.” (Ten Elshof, 2015: 14) Filial piety is no surprise in the face of a culture that centers on the family. Liu explains, “Filial piety is more than just showing filial obedience to parents: most importantly, it indicates raising sons to support aging parents and having sons to continue the family line.” (2007: 56) This too is a practice that finds support within Confucianism as a “value that calls on adult children to fulfill obligations to respect, obey, support, and care for elderly parents.” (Shea, Moore, & Zhang, 2020: 29) 养儿防老 (to bring up children for the purpose of being looked after in old age) is the Chinese parental motto that shows the expectations placed upon the children to care for their aging parents. Caring for the aged will only increase in difficulty as the average age of Chinese citizens rises. (Campbell 2019) Further exacerbating the age demographic phenomena is that this comes on the heels of the one-child policy that leaves two sets of aging parents on the shoulders of one married couple. Tang Youcai and Jeanne Shea discovered that those coming from rural areas “have both higher proportions of elderly folks and lower levels of economic development.” (2020: 92)

===Conclusion===

A collective, kinship country that is culturally conditioned to associate the wellbeing and preservation of the family with social and economic success finds itself in the face of a challenging future. The CCP is working tirelessly to show it supports and recognizes the need for the Chinese family, only that it has one major issue with it: its size. The battle for the family that started in Confucius’s day continues in the present. The academic atmosphere that crescendos at standardized testing (Li 2019) and a highly competitive job market that leaves even college graduates in a tight spot (Pike 2022) places the child’s education at front and center in the battle for social survival. The weight of the future of China predictably rests, from a cultural perspective, on the shoulders of the family unit.

===Introduction===
Pepper was introduced into China from America at the end of the Ming Dynasty, but at first it was only used as ornamental crops and medicines. In the early Qing Dynasty, Guizhou and its neighboring areas were the first to eat chili. In Guizhou, where salt was scarce, during the reign of Emperor Kangxi (1662-1722), "soil seedlings were used to replace salt". Pepper played a role in replacing salt, which shows that it is closely related to life. From the Qianlong period (1736-1795), a large number of hot peppers were eaten in Guizhou. During the reign of Qianlong, Zhenxiong, Yunnan, which was adjacent to Guizhou, and Chenzhou Prefecture, Hunan, in the east of Guizhou, also began to eat chili. After Jiaqing (1796-1820), pepper was widely planted in Guizhou, Hunan, Sichuan and Jiangxi provinces. It was recorded in Jiaqing that Jiangxi, Hunan, Guizhou and Sichuan had begun to "grow as vegetables".

During Daoguang's reign (1821-1850), the northern part of Guizhou was already in a situation of"every meal must be filled with peppers". The rice wrapped in grain was popular in Tongzhi. The dish used mostly bean curd, that is, water soaked salt and sea pepper, which was used to dip in water, a little like the sea pepper dip in Sichuan Fushun bean curd today.

In some areas of Hunan, hot pepper was not very common during the Jiaqing period, but it was more common among Daoguang, Xianfeng, Tongzhi and Guangxu. According to the Qing barnyard banknotes in the late Qing Dynasty, "people in Yunnan, Guizhou, Hunan and Sichuan loved spicy food", "people in Hunan and Hubei liked spicy food", and "people in Hunan and Hubei could not eat spicy food without pepper and mustard, so there was plenty of soup", indicating that people in Hunan and Hubei had become accustomed to spicy food in the late Qing Dynasty, and they even put pepper into soup.

The record of edible pepper in Sichuan was later than Hubei’s. Neither in the book of Yongzheng's Sichuan Tongzhi nor Jiaqing's Sichuan Tongzhi recorded the cultivation and eating of pepper, and the earliest recorded pepper may be in Jiaqing. From the perspective of the areas where pepper was planted and eaten in Jiaqing, Sichuan, they are mainly located in the Chengdu Plain and the Daba Mountains area in the south and southwest of Sichuan and the borders of Sichuan, Hubei and Shaanxi. After Daoguang, Xianfeng and Tongzhi, Sichuan's edible chilies began to become popular, and even chilies were "planted all over the mountains" in Sichuan. After Guangxu, Sichuan's edible chili was more common. In addition to being widely eaten, there were a lot of records of eating chili in the classic recipes. According to Fu Chongju's Chengdu Overview in the late Qing Dynasty, there were 1328 kinds of dishes in Chengdu at that time. Pepper has become one of the main condiments in Sichuan cuisine, including hot oil sea pepper, sea pepper noodles, etc., especially the double cooked pork in Sichuan cuisine was officially recorded in written records. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, eating pepper has become an important feature of Sichuan people's diet. Xu Xinyu's Records of Traveling in Sichuan recorded that "Sichuan people must choose the most spicy ones to eat, and every meal and dish must be hot."

When did Yunnan begin to eat spicy food? Zhenxiong, Yunnan, which is close to Guizhou, ate hot pepper during the Qianlong Period, but it was not very common in Yunnan during the Qianjia Period. There was no record of chilli in the Tongzhi of Yunnan during the Guangxu period, but people began to eat chilli in large quantities as early as the Guangxu period. According to the Records of Visiting Sichuan by Xu Xinyu in the late Qing Dynasty, his father found in Ya'an that the chili peppers transported into Yunnan every year through Ya'an, Sichuan, were "quantity is nearly hundreds of thousands. The amount of chili peppers eaten by Yunnan people is not less than that of Sichuan people". Therefore, Xu Ke's Qing barnyard banknote at the end of the Qing Dynasty said: "Yunnan, Guizhou, Hunan and Sichuan people are fond of spicy food." According to the records in the Textual Research on the Names and Facts of Plants, edible chili peppers had been planted in Jiangxi during the Jiaqing period. During the Guangxu period, edible chili peppers had become more common in Jiangxi, and now Jiangxi Nankang chili sauce is very famous.

Pepper has been introduced into China for about 400 years, but this foreign spice soon became popular all over China, taking the position of traditional Chinese prickly ash, ginger and cornus officinalis. The consumption of Chinese prickly ash was squeezed into Sichuan Basin, the hometown of Chinese prickly ash. Cornus officinalis almost completely withdrew from the stage of Chinese food spice, and the position of ginger was largely withdrawn from the diet. The introduction of chili into Chinese food is undoubtedly a food revolution. The powerful chili makes it impossible for any traditional spice to compete with it. The revolution was only a little slow due to the constraints of traffic and information at that time.

What about court dishes?
one book records the dishes used to celebrate the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month, including "Spicy Rabbit". However, there was no detailed description of what kind of dish it was. In the following Qing Dynasty, a dish named "Spicy Rabbit Silk" also appeared in Tioding Collection. Shredded chicken soup simmer, add yellow rice wine, soy sauce, onion, ginger juice, Chinese prickly ash, and soybean powder to finish the soup.

No pepper is used, but pepper is added, so the name of the dish has the word "spicy". It should have the same taste as the "spicy" in the "spicy live rabbit" in the "Records of Drinking". There are two kinds of flavors without chilli. As for whether rabbit meat is used, why the dish is called "Spicy Rabbit" is an unsolved mystery. In the Records of Drinking, dozens of famous dishes in the imperial court are listed. In addition to the aforementioned "Spicy Rabbit", there is also a dish called "Spicy Soup", which is a soup to drink every morning to prevent cold in November. Nowadays, ginger soup is often drunk to prevent cold. The "hot soup" here may be of the same type. As for other places where pepper is used, none of them has been found.

===Conclusion===
Even in the Qing Dynasty, pepper still did not enter the court. The Manchu people did not even have the habit of eating mustard seeds. "A Dream of Red Mansions" describes the dishes made of vinegar, as well as various other cooking methods, but hot dishes never appeared.

===Introduction===
In the 5,000 years of Chinese culture, music has slowly flowed with the history to modern times. Whenever you hear an ancient rhythm, it is like going back in time to the days of small bridges and flowing water and talented people. This is our own Chinese beauty. The Rites of Zhou states that ancient Chinese musical instruments can be divided into the "eight tones" - gold, stone, earth, leather, silk, wood, lagen and bamboo. The chime is a representative of "gold", and is also known as a "national treasure"! Emerging from a time of turmoil, it has been passed down for thousands of years.
The chime is an ancient traditional percussion instrument made of bronze, with a combination of flat round bells of different sizes, each with a different pitch. In two dimensions, the chimes are narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, with uneven edges around the mouth. Most of the chimes are beautifully carved and decorated, or lined with elaborate drums, which are known as bell-nipples.

First appearing in the Shang dynasty, the chime was born in the midst of chaos and was popularised in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States, where it remained in use until the Ming and Qing dynasties. It can be said to have emerged from the chaotic times and to have been handed down for thousands of years. The early chimes were mostly made up of three or five pieces, and could play simple old tunes.

The chimes of the Ming and Qing dynasties were completely different from the traditional chimes, not only in form but also in tone, and by this time the music of the chimes had long since lost the majesty and coolness of the chimes. Chimes were generally used for courtly music, and in the early days, they were used for major occasions such as conquests, banquets and rituals, so that in ancient times they were also a symbol of status and power, and only the ruler had the right to use them. In the Poetic Edda, there is a phrase that refers to the chimes: "I use the chimes and drums of music to please my fair lady", and they were also used in large banquets and dances.

Most of the chimes from the Western Zhou period are oval in shape with a narrow top and a wide bottom, and a large number of performance scores were recorded on the bodies of the chimes, the ultimate purpose of which was to facilitate rehearsal and performance, and which accidentally became the carrier of chime culture. From the Qin dynasty onwards the chimes gradually pursued aesthetic appearance, neglecting the effect of the sound itself, and the Qing dynasty's lack of attention to ritual and music led to the gradual loss of many of the finest bronze chime casting techniques. During the Han dynasty, chimes fell into decline, and although they were still a symbol of the status of the emperor, they were far removed from the chimes of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, and were even inferior to those of the pre-Qin period in terms of silencing. After more than 500 years at its peak, the chimes still went into decline.

From the Song dynasty onwards, foreign musical instruments flowed in and other traditional instruments emerged, gradually eliminating chimes from court performance, and by the Qing dynasty they were shaped into mere decorative objects that could not be played. The art of bell casting was lost from the Song dynasty, but when the Zeng Houyi Chimes were unearthed, the Chinese Cultural Affairs Bureau set up the Zeng Houyi Chimes Reproduction Research Group, which succeeded in reproducing a full set of Zeng Houyi Chimes in 1984, and the technology of bell casting came back to light.The recovery of the chime casting technique has led to an increasing focus on the preservation and promotion of traditional culture.

Mr. Robert, husband of the famous female singer Ms. Gong Linna, first saw a replica of the Zeng Houyi Chimes in 2005 and heard the sound of the chimes live, the teacher was instantly blown away, after which he became addicted to chime music and couldn't help himself, wanting to successfully put chime music symbols in modern society, creating "Mountain Ghost" in 2007, and in 2009, with the help of the Hong Kong Orchestra and the National Orchestra Together, they created "Bell Music and Harmony". In 2018, Ms. Gong Linna and Robert used chimes to perfectly interpret Qu Yuan's "Li Sao" on the programme "Classics Flow", allowing the ancient sound that had been dormant for thousands of years to appear on modern television programmes and allowing audiences across the country to appreciate the charm of chimes.

At the Shanghai World Expo the chimes were the face of modern music, and Professor Kong Fan from the University of Science and Technology of China brought his research team to the Shanghai Expo to combine the chimes with modern technology to create a magnetic levitation chime that was a breath of fresh air. With a strong magnet made of rare earth roundness in each chime, which determines the levitating position of the bronze chimes through high speed detection thousands of times per second, this group of magnetically levitated chimes has once again amazed the world.

===Conclusion===
The sound of chimes, which has been flowing in history for 2,500 years, has finally reappeared through modern technology, presenting us with a visual feast. Among the four ancient civilisations, Chinese culture is the most completely preserved, adapting and surviving in modern times to the last, all of which, apart from the research led by scientists, is inseparable from the many, many heirs and lovers of traditional culture. In this age of colourfulness and diversity, traditional culture deserves its place too!

===Introduction===
Live streaming was not initially a product of the network. In The Radio and Television Dictionary, live streaming refers to the post-synthesis and broadcast of radio programs at the same time, and live television broadcast is the broadcast method of producing and broadcasting television programs simultaneously with the occurrence and development process of events.” It can be seen that live streaming firstly appeared on traditional media radio and television stations.
On January 1, 2008, the General Office of the State Council put forward a notice proposing to promote the integration of the Three Networks (telecommunication network, computer network and cable TV network). Until today, the integration of the three networks has experienced twelve years of development. Under the background of the continuous progress of interconnection technology, cell phone has been transformed from a simple communication tool to a multifunctional device integrating communication, TV watching and the internet access. With the increasing number of cell phones, the number of cell phone users also continues to go high, providing support for the development of cell phone live steaming. Taking advantage of a large number of live streaming platforms, the connotation of network live streaming also transformed from the early program broadcast into the broadcast of life scenes that the general public can participate in, which is a leap forward.
===Categories of Living Streaming===
(1)According to the main body of live streaming, it can be divided into star live streaming, net celebrity live streaming and common people live streaming. Star live is held by actors, athletes and other celebrities with a certain degree of fame and attention in the mass media, the audience of star live is mainly fans. The purpose of star live is often to let fans see the daily life of the stars to close the distance. Net celebrity live is held by the network celebrities who have become popular in micro blogging, short video platform or other social platforms, and some of them are professional anchors. As opposed to stars and net celebrities, the rest of the ordinary anchors who do not have great influence and attention are collectively referred to as common people live.
(2)According to the live content, live streaming can be generally divided into four categories: live show, live game, live pan-life broadcast and live streaming sale. Show live is the earliest type of live streaming, and it requires the anchors to show their talents. Game live is about electronic games, and most of them are competitive games and it has a certain threshold for both parties - the game anchor is generally required to be proficient or at least familiar with the game being broadcast; the audience is at least aware of the game, otherwise they cannot participate well in the live viewing. Pan-life live streaming refers to the live streaming that shows daily life, where the anchor simply sings, casually chats, eats and shows their daily life. It is live and casual and with no rehearsal, and anyone with a device can become an anchor by registering an account. As the fastest growing type of live streaming since 2016, pan-life live streaming is leading the wave of live streaming with a “mobile live for all” approach. Live streaming sale is an emerging commercial activity which aims to sale goods, and it is all about introduction and exhibition of products.
===Patterns of Interaction in Live Streaming===
(1)Get connected: anchor to anchor interaction
This is a way of interaction between two anchors to achieve a more interesting live broadcast and share fans through a common broadcasting room. It is to connect the live rooms of two hosts, and the way to get connected is that the host can choose to connect with a host they are familiar with or be randomly matched by the system. For viewers, they can see both hosts on the same live screen at the same time. The anchors will chat, sing, play games and so on to make the live streaming more interesting, and at the same time the anchor will also recommend their own fans to pay attention to the other anchor. The fans watching the live broadcast do not have the loyalty between traditional idols and fans, so the anchors can achieve the purpose of sharing fans and maximizing benefits.
(2)Pop-ups and gifts: fan-anchor interaction
The explosive growth of User Generated Content (UGC) attracts large-scale internet users to join the content interaction, and “gifts and pop-ups” constitute the basic ecology of live streaming culture. Pop-ups gives fans an opportunity to express their emotions, and gifts is another important way for fans to interact with anchors, which first existed in original literature websites, and then was introduced as an innovative payment function by self-media and gradually introduced by major platforms.
(3)Melt media interaction: the establishment of cross-platform fan group
Senior anchors do not limit themselves to interacting with their fans briefly on the live platform, but will establish WeChat or QQ fan groups to achieve cross-platform interaction. The establishment of fan groups can make the interaction between fans and anchors more intimate. The fan groups of popular anchors have certain requirements in terms of access qualifications, such as the amount of bounty, frequency of interaction, etc., and anchors will also use fan groups to give back to their fans, such as more interaction, red packets or other benefits.
===Conclusion===
On the one hand, live streaming has brought many beneficial effects to people’s lives. People have a new way to learn and express themselves. And also its platform advantages can make it a disseminator of excellent culture and promote people towards cultural confidence and cultural self-awareness.
On the other hand, the trend of network live entertainment is obvious, and overly entertaining and vulgarized content is popping up, which to some extent hinders the spread and popularization of socialist core values. Therefore, restrictions should be taken to standardize live streaming.

===Introduction===
I. Origin and Development of Imagery in Chinese Classical Poems

Imagery is the soul and the core of the Chinese classical poetry. Based on the actual experiences and feelings, imagery exceeds the simple physical image, and it’s a reflection of the poet's imagination and divergence thinking. In Chinese literary tradition, the expression “Yi Xiang”(意象) has existed since ancient times, and it “has long been a concern of Chinese poetry from its very beginning.” (Pauline Yu 1987,3) It’s used to “denote a verbal expression that evokes a mental picture or recalls a physical sensation, not necessarily visual” (James Y. Liu 1962,101) Actually, the imagery and its theoretical system have undergone three upgrades, and then gradually developed into the one we’re familiar with, i.e. the objective things in poetry fusing the poet's subjective feelings and aspirations.

The first theoretical promotion occurred in the Pre-Qin times, based on Zhuangzi’s “words don’t exhaust meaning” and “The Sages established the images to give fullness of the concepts in their minds” in Commentaries on the Book of Changes (Stephen Owen 1992,31). In Wei and Jin Dynasties, the second promotion was marked by Wang Bi’s further illustration on the triadic structure of “the concept in mind”(意), “images”(象) and “words”(言) in his book Elucidation of the Images(《明象》), which indicates that words exists for images, and images for the concept in mind. It was Liu Xie in Han Dynasty who exactly introduced image into literary and endowed it with aesthetic connotation, which signals the third theoretical promotion. In his book Carving a Dragon with a Literary Mind, Liu stated “a uniquely discerning carpenter wield his axe with his eye to the concept-image”.

II. Interpretation of Typical Imageries

1. Botanical Imagery

1) Willow
Willow is always employed to express sentiment attached to parting. In Han Dynasty, there formed the custom of “breaking off a willow branch for leave-taking”. The pronunciation of “柳” in Chinese is similar with “留”, which means “(want someone) to stay”, endowing the willow with sensibilities of missing someone or the sadness of departure.

2) Wutong trees
Wutong, also known as plane or Chinese parasol, is closely associated with autumn and a melancholy mood. Wutong usually conveys a sense of grief and desolation. And the half dead wutong can be compared to the middle-aged widower or widow.

3) Chrysanthemum
Blooming in autumn, the Chrysanthemum often symbolizes loftiness, constancy, integrity and nobility of a character as well as a secluded life, especially in Tao Yuanming’s poems.
By the way, some botanical imageries, such as bamboo, pine trees and plum-blossom, share similar symbolic meaning to some extent.

2. Animal Imagery

1) Cuckoo

Cuckoo, also named “子规” or “子鹃” in Chinese, is associated with farewell because its call sounds like the pronunciation of “不如归去”(bùrúguīqù), which means “It’s better to return.” Wandering travelers far away from hometown will be touched when hearing such sounds, which evoke their distress and homesickness. Moreover, when departing with friends or relatives, people are always sorrowful, hoping they can soon return.

2) Crane
For one thing, the natural image of the crane, full of vitality and soaring in the sky, often embodies the poet’s yearning for a free and secluded life. For another, the crane symbolizes longevity and mourning, showing poet’s life-worrying consciousness. Additionally, as an important cultural icon of Taoism, the crane is associate with immortality, which reflects the holiness of Taoism and the religious ideal of pursuing the freedom and the eternity.

3) Swallow
Swallows are migratory birds whose return heralds the coming of spring. Therefore, swallow imagery, firstly, is to render the poet's appreciation of the pleasant spring. Besides, swallows often appear in pairs in people’s houses or under the eaves, hence two swallows embody an enviable love or love-sickness. Finally, in some poems, the swallow represents the poet’s indignation about vicissitudes of the past as well as the country’s subjugation and destruction.

3. Inanimate Imagery

1) Moon
The moon, with various appellations in Chinese, such as “玉弓”, “银盘”, “婵娟”, etc., is one of the most commonly-used imageries in Chinese poetry. It implicates the general Chinese national mentality and denotes the obscured illusions of the Chinese spiritual homestead. The moon implies homesickness, especially when it is full, which symbolizes a perfect home life or a happy union. On the contrary, a waning moon indicates destitution or separation. Even today, those who are far from home would feel homesick and forlorn at the sight of the moon, just like the writer of “Still Night Thought”.

2) River
In China, the Yangtze River and the Yellow River are two main rivers, which originates from the southwest of China hence flowing eastward. So the imagery of river appears always accompanied with words “flowing eastward”. Sometimes poets use it as a metaphor for a moral, hermetic life, obstruction or time. Also, it’s a symbol of separation with sadness, because in ancient China poets usually send their friends or families off by the riverside.

3) East wind and west wind
Due to geographical factors, “east wind” in China, as a sign of spring, brings warmth and speeds the greening of plants and spurs love. Conversely, “west wind” in China symbolizes chilly coldness in winter, which is connected with something bleak and desolate.

===Conclusion===
There’re three major theoretical upgrades before the imagery theory we understand today gradually formed. Due to its rich connotations, profound philosophy and unique spirit, the proper comprehension of imagery is the key to appreciate and experience the charm of poetry. Moreover, the study of imagery is of great significance to the study of Chinese classical literature as well as the inheritance of Chinese traditional culture.

===Introduction===
The Chinese people consider tigers as power, luck, righteousness, valour and vigour in their country, so they use anything about tiger to avoid disasters. From the ancient China, “tiger culture” has begun to spread.
At the beginning, tiger culture was originated from totems. During Yin and Zhou Dynasty, our ancestors engraved tiger patterns on bronze wares; In the military dimensions, the emperors used Military Tiger Talisman(虎符) to move their military troops, and it also means the sovereign power of the ruling class; The ancient people also engraved tiger patterns on eaves and used those eaves to build houses, which means their houses peaceful and auspicious; During Chinese New Year, the Chinese people not only paste “Door God” on their doors, but also paste pictures of a tiger. In folk, Chinese parents make tiger head shoes for their children, because “The folk believes that ‘dog doesn’t eat dog’(虎毒不食子). For the safety and healthy growth of children, people make tiger-faced shoes and hats to knock on luck, drive away evil and avoids evil.” (Liu Jia, 2010, 201) Therefore, tiger-faced shoes play the role in Chinese culture: to bring luck and auspiciousness, to prevent disasters from children, and to make a hope that children could grow up healthily and happily.
===Origin===
The origin of tiger-faced shoes, or Hutou Xie, can date back to the Stone Age.There are a lot of fairy tales about tiger-faced shoes. According to Quan Yue(2022, 148-151), once upon a time, a young boatman whose surname is Shi lived on the bank of the Yellow River, and he helped the local residents cross the river every day. One day, an old lady in a hurry to cross the river to ask a midwife to give a birth to her daughter-in-law’s child. However, Unexpectedly that the old lady was dizzy when her was on the boat, so the young boatman had to help the old woman to ask a midwife alone. Then the second day, on the birth of her grandson, the old lady sent a painting to the young boatman as a present for his kindness.
In that painting, there was a beautiful girl. And the next day, the beautiful girl became a real girl standing in front of the boatman, and then, they got married. Several years later, a local official wanted to rob of the beauty, so the girl ran into the picture again. Then the official roared to the picture: “if you do not out, I will break you into pieces!” The girl was extremely afraid.
While at the boatman’s home, the old lady made a pair of red shoes which shaped like a tiger’s head to the boatman’s son, and said: “Putting on the pair of red shoes to save you mom!.” After that, the little boy ran to save his mom, and when he came in the official’s home, he was angry and suddenly, his shoes became a fierce tiger! The tiger ate the official in one bite, and finally, the boy saved his mom. The family reunited happily. This is one of the origin of tiger head shoes.
===Design===
In most areas of China, the main colors of tiger-faced shoes are red and yellow. While tailors sew the mouth, nose and eyes of the tiger with thick threads. “When making tiger-faced shoes, some people like decorating tigers’ eyes and ears with rabbit fur. With three colors of red, yellow and white, the tiger-faced shoes look vivid.”(Xu Xiren, 2017, 144) At the same time, different people use different colors to decorate the shoes. For example, the Han people often use yellow cloth to decorate tiger head shoes, while the Yi people like using white cloth.
As to the appearance of tiger-faced shoes, in general, the appearance of a pair of tiger-faced shoes is tiger-liked pattern, on which has eyes, mouth, nose and beard. While in different places, tiger patterns on shoes have slight differences, for example, “In north China, the design of tiger head is more exaggerated and more rugged, while in abundant Jiangnan, the design is more delicate.”(Wang Chenlin, 2019, 69) Chen Hui also described that in Henan province, tiger head shoes have rough shape and strong local flavor; in Shandong province, the head of shoes is more prone to be like cat head, lion head or dragon head.(Chen Hui, 2017, 192)
===Implied meaning and value===
In traditional Chinese culture, people attach great importance to their children. Parents hope their children will have bright future and also, they hope they can be taken good care of by their kids when they are old. So parents have high expectations for their kids.
When children are little babies, their parents use kinds of ways which might be superstitious to protect them from dangers. For example, when a baby is born, the first person who holds the baby is serious in China, because the Chinese people think the behavior will pass good luck, a healthy body and so on to the kid, so they require the person who is the first to hold their new-born baby is of good health and good fortune and so on.
Therefore, tiger-faced shoes are of the same significance for Chinese parents. Tiger, the king of beasts, has the implied meaning of good luck and power in China, so parents make tiger-shoes for their little baby to prevent dangers, bad luck and disease. Meanwhile, according to Yin Zhuoran, he said a pair of tiger-faced shoes “有鼻子有眼” (has a nose and big eyes), which means the one who wears it is a complete and healthy person.(Yin Zhuoran, 2010, 185) Yang Xueqin also referred to that “In folk art, women's fabric products, embroidery, paper cut and other designs, follow the idea symbolized by the metaphor, and are subject to the wishes of happiness and luck...”(Yang Xueqin, 1990, 179) Such statements implied that those who wear tiger head shoes will be a healthy, auspicious and happy person.
Also, the shape of the shoes is matched with children’s growing feet, letting children walking freely.
Tigers have strong life, and the Chinese people praise highly of it, which can be shown in some Chinese idioms such as “生龙活虎” “如龙似虎” “龙腾虎跃” (all of these idioms mean someone has vitality and vigour) and so on. All of these idioms contain a high appreciation for tigers, so parents hope their new-born babies have strong life just like tigers. Also, tigers have a positive impression in Chinese people’s hearts, so they also hope their kids could have the same good characters with tigers in the world.
===Conclusion===
As a part of traditional Chinese culture, tiger-faced shoes has been handed down by the Chinese people from generation to generation, and people innovate it in different ways. Ding Xiaojia once mentioned in his article: “Tiger shaped pillow and tiger-shaped earthenware are very like modeling of tiger-head shoes in spirit. People are using another way to express their respect for tiger-head shoes’ auspicious meaning.”(Ding Xiaojia, 2015, 628) The combination of traditional craftsmanship with constant innovation has kept the vitality of tiger-faced shoes. And with the shoes, Chinese parents place the best wishes on their children. so, in today’s world, it is important for us to inherit and spread the culture of tiger-faced shoes, as well as making innovation constantly. Only doing these will our fine traditional Chinese culture flourish.

==Chinese Horseface Skirt==
<center>Zhang Yuyan张玉燕,202270081681</center>
===Abstract===
Horseface skirt (also named mamianqun or mamianzhequn) is one of the main skirt styles of ancient China. Originated from the Song Dynasty, flourished in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, horseface skirt is inherited and favored by people all over the world. Therefore, I’d like to devote this article to introducing horseface skirt so that readers can learn something about its history, structure, patterns and colors, thus bringing it to the world.

===中国马面裙===
===摘要===
马面裙又名“马面褶裙”，是中国古代裙式的主要代表之一。它源于宋代，盛于明清，延续至今，受到无数人的青睐。在此，我想借此文介绍马面裙，让读者了解其发展历史、结构特征、图案纹样、色彩搭配等，使中国的马面裙走向世界。
===关键词===
马面裙、历史发展、结构特征、图案纹样、色彩搭配

===Introduction===
When it comes to “horseface skirt (also mamianqun)”, you may be amazed by its name. So why is it called that? Some people believe that it’s because the skirt doors look quite similar to “mamian”, which refers to the defensive structure of the ancient city wall. While others think that its middle skirt door, which is a rectangle, is like a long horse face. Therefore, this part of skirt is named as “mamian”, and the skirt itself is called mamianqun (also horseface skirt) (Cai Liming 1993,379).

The word “Ma Mian” first appeared in the ''Ming Palace''(Qi Ziyu 2012，2). And the history of horseface skirt can be traced back to “spin skirt” in the Song Dynasty. So, what’s spin skirt? Actually, it is a functional dress designed for women’s donkey riding. Meng Hui said, “This type of Song skirt is composed of two equal but independent trains. When making a skirt, the two parts are partially stacked together and sewn to the waist (Caoxue,Wang Qunshan 2016,109).” Because of its shape and structure, it’s considered to be the embryonic form of horseface skirt. In Ming Dynasty, the horseface skirt gradually formed. With its simple style and beautiful color, it impressed people with its elegance. From the royal nobles to the common people, everyone wore horseface skirts. However, in terms of the texture, decoration, and color, there were strict differences among classes. Since the foundation of the Qing Dynasty, horseface skirt evolved from a general skirt for men and women to a skirt only for women, and more forms appeared, such as pleated skirt, yuehua skirt, and fengwei skirt. In the 21st century, to some extent, the rise of Hanfu movement has once again promoted horseface skirt, and it’s still favored by world people.

====The Structure of Horseface Skirt====
“The Yi (the upper garment) and Shang (the lower skirt)”is one of the clothing forms in Chinese civilization, and horseface skirt is a kind of “Shang”, which is mainly composed of four parts, namely, the skirt door, the skirt flank, the skirt couplet and the waistband. There are 4 skirt doors at the front, back, inside and outside, overlapping each other. The two skirt flanks refer to the side folds of the skirt. And two skirt couplets are two pieces, which are partially stacked together and sewn to the waist. While the waistband functions to gird the waist with the help of beltloops. It is this special design that allows the wearer to move freely without being too revealing，which reflects the implicit and introverted national temperament of the Chinese nation.

====The Patterns of Horseface Skirt====
Let’s move on, and learn about its patterns! There are two types of horseface skirt patterns -- separate embroidery patterns and large embroidery patterns,among which the separate embroidery patterns account for the majority. Each pattern conveys a different meaning. Taking the animal patterns “dragon” and “phoenix” as an example, in the long history of China, dragon and phoenix are considered to be auspicious. They are seen to be the symbols of prosperity, solemnity and power. Therefore, these patterns are mostly found in the clothes of ancient emperors and their concubines. Taking the pattern of “fish” as another example, fish harmonizes with "Yu"（in mandarin）,which conveys the good meaning of having a surplus for the next year in China. People also embroider some plants and flowers on their horseface skirts, such as our national flower peony, which represents wealth and nobility; the undefiled lotus, which symbolizes purity; the golden chrysanthemum, which represents longevity; and lily, which represents sacredness and holiness, friendship and a bright future (Sun Hui ,Wu Yue 2017,11).

====The Colors of Horseface Skirt====
Generally speaking, in terms of color, horseface skirt can be divided into solid color horse face skirt and colorful horseface skirt (such as yuehua skirt). Horseface skirts are always gorgeous in color, mostly red, followed by blue and other colors(Zhang Pei，Yang Jingyi 2022,80).That’s because the red color represents joy and auspiciousness, which can bring people hopes and wishes for a better life in the future, and give them a sense of happiness. Therefore, it seems that Chinese people naturally love the red color instead of some other dark colors, such as black. Nowadays, young and creative designers are making the horseface skirt more colorful, beautiful and attractive. They are very skillful at striking a wonderful balance between cold and warm colors, and pay attention to the contrast of colors with different brightness and purity, thus making more peoplef fall in love with horseface skirt.

===Conclusion===
The horseface skirt did originate from China and has a very long history. While in July, Dior appropriated Chinese horseface skirt culture and insisted that its collection was an original design, which infuriated Chinese students who took to the streets to protest, demanding respect for Chinese culture. It is this event that prompts me to write this passage. And I know the passage maybe not comprehensive due to the limitation of words, but I still sincerely hope that readers can gain something from it, such as its development history, structure, etc. And I hope more people will love Chinese horseface skirt and spread it to the world.

That’s all! Thank you for your careful reading!

==The Rise of ‘China Chic’: A Case Study of Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games==
<center>周晓兰 Zhou Xiaolan,202270081682.</center>
===Abstract===
‘China Chic’ is a term that describes the trend of China-centric design, incorporating unique cultural elements into the latest trends. With the growing popularity of China’s native fashion trends, more young people are paying attention to traditional Chinese culture. And the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games can be seen as a good example of how the world has embraced China Chic. This paper focuses on the rise of China Chic, taking Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games as an example.
===Key Words===
China Chic, Traditional Chinese Culture, Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games
===题目===
“国潮”之崛起：以2022北京冬奥会为例
===摘要===
“国潮”将独特的中国文化元素融入最新潮流，代表着以中国文化为中心的设计趋势。随着中国本土时尚潮流的日益流行，越来越多的年轻人开始关注中国传统文化。而2022北京冬奥会恰如其分地展现了国潮正在融入世界潮流。本文将以2022北京冬奥会为例，探究国潮之崛起。
===关键词===
国潮，中国传统文化，北京冬奥会
===Introduction===
China Chic, or Guochao, is a new type of youth culture with ‘China’ as the core, ‘Chic’ as the expression, ‘culture + technology’ as the driving force, and ‘integration + innovation’ as the main direction of development(Cao Wenfang 2022, 92). And the impact of China Chic has been expanded across various categories, including obvious ones like fashion and cosmetics, and others like architecture, technology, automobiles, and so on. As it develops, China Chic increasingly manifests Chinese people’s ambition of reviving traditional heritage in a modern context and reflecting the profound pride in their national identity (Coco Wu, Harry Kinnear, Maya Madhusoodan, 2020). Incorporating unique cultural elements into the latest trends, Beijing Winter Olympics serves as a good example of the rise of China Chic. China took the chance to introduce its most distinctive cultural elements, through the Games’ logo, mascot, ceremonies and so on. And this paper will introduce the China Chic in the event, through Games’ opening ceremony, mascot, and sports clothing.
===The 24 Solar Terms in the Opening Ceremony===
The 24 solar terms, having been developed throughout Chinese history since about 3,000 years ago and listed on the UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2016, are so important to Chinese people that it appears both creative and natural for Zhang Yimou to employ and showcase them as a unique part of Chinese civilization to the world (Yang Yang, 2022). Hailed as China’s fifth greatest invention, the solar terms developed by ancient Chinese as a calendar to guide agricultural production and reflect some natural phenomena and human life.

The opening ceremony started with a countdown of the 24 solar terms instead of using numbers, delighting the audience, as the first of the 24 solar terms-- “Beginning of Spring” fell on this very day. The countdown of the 24 solar terms shows the unique understanding of Chinese nation towards time. What’s more, Zhang used beautiful poems and proverbs to explain the characteristics of each solar term, while incorporating modern technology to show them in video. Many netizens praised this idea as a show of Chinese Romance. Such combination of traditional culture and modern technology shows the vitality of Chinese culture and the wisdom of Chinese nation.
===Mascot===
Being eyecatchers that help create an Olympic atmosphere, mascots serve to demonstrate the ideas of the host, and the history and culture of the host country (Yin Ziqiang 2022, 10). Bing Dwen Dwen is the panda mascot for Beijing Winter Olympics. Bing means ice in Mandarin, representing purity and strength. Dwen Dwen means sincerity, health, vitality and loveliness, representing the strong body, tenacious will and inspiring spirit of athletes. As a national emblem for China and a significant symbol for foreigners to learn about China, giant pandas are under first-class protection, revealing core Chinese values of harmony between man and nature.

Bing Dwen Dwen wears a full body shell out of ice which connotes both winter sports and China’s space dream. Its head shell is decorated with flowing bright-colored lines symbolizing the track of winter sports and the 5G technology. What’s more, colorful ribbons and the black and white panda present traditional Chinese aesthetic thought of contrast and unity. Bing Dwen Dwen not only captures the profound cultural heritage, but also shows the Olympic spirit and the development of modern technology.

Thanks to its chubby and lovable look, Bing Dwen Dwen has soon become a smash hit around the world. Bing Dwen Dwen souvenirs have been sold out in online stores and customers have to wait in long lines at offline stores to try their luck. As a new online celebrity representing the Winter Olympics, cute and adorable Bing Dwen Dwen was liked and followed by athletes and journalists from around the world who were incredibly enthusiastic about taking photos with the mascot. Bing Dwen Dwen even became a trending Olympic topic on Twitter, building a bridge of communication across national borders and bringing China Chic to the world.
===Sports Clothing===
During Beijing Winter Olympics, Young athletes wore sports clothing bearing Chinese elements, such as dragons, pandas, tigers, the Great Wall, traditional Chinese painting, and Beijing Opera facial makeup, which surprised world audience. Perfectly combining the functionality, nationality and artistry, the sports clothing can realize the free wearing under the change of temperature and scene, which helps to enhance the performance of Team China (Ma Yan, 2021).

It is worth mentioning that the “golden dragon coat” of Eileen Gu, a rising Chinese sports star, spreads China Chic to the world. The “golden dragon coat” was designed by herself to spread Chinese culture, featuring a golden Chinese Dragon on the reverse of the clothing. Dragon is a symbol of China, and descendants of dragon refer to Chinese nation (Yin Sairui 2022, 50). It reveals the spirit of forging ahead. In Chinese culture, gold symbolizes nobility, brilliance and glory. Therefore, the golden dragon coat serves as a brilliant display of Chinese culture. What’s more, incorporating modern fashion trend in its style, this coat is a perfect example of China Chic. Gu’s spectacular performance in the Olympic Games also offers a great opportunity to show China Chic to the world. And this coat is now in the collection of the Olympic Museum in Lausanne, Switzerland. As a result, more and more people start to pay attention to Chinese fashion brands which present rich culture and traditional elements of China through the intuitive of dressing (Zijing Han, Duo Xu, Rujia Zheng, 2022).
===Conclusion===
Beijing Winter Olympics introduces China Chic to the world and show the vitality of Chinese culture. It also demonstrates that Chinese culture is stepping onto the international stage. Therefore, it is necessary for China to take the advantage of China Chic to spread traditional Chinese culture, turning such youth culture into national culture.

This chapter is on petting in Chinese history. Pets had been considered to be a component of Western lifestyle, and Chinese, maybe due to the notorious reputation for eating dogs, has been long labeled as "a land unfriendly for pets".

===Introduction===
Chinese were thought not so pet-friendly as Westerners, especially for its notorious dog-eating, and petting is indeed never considered by people home or abroad as a long-prevailing habit of Chinese. In fact, even nowadays petting in China cannot be described as anything related to “popular”. According to 2021 Chinese Pet Industry White Paper, the number of dog-and-cat owners totalled to 68.44 million in 2021 and was expected to increase to 71.68 million which took up only 5.12% of China’s total population. Other “non-traditional” pets, say, birds, other small mammals, reptiles are even rarer to public sight. Even though pet-owner are still a small proportion in China, petting is surely gaining more and more attention publicly and politically.
===Historical Overview of Chinese Petting===
Petting hasn’t been a popular thing since ancient times. For an agricultural country like China, “unpragmatic” animals like dogs and cats used to be quite uncommon because they were not beneficial for farming (Custer, 2021). Nevertheless, there were a few famous pet-lovers documented for their adoration for certain animals. In Pre-Qin periods, the emperor Yi of Wei loved raising cranes. The elegant and purely-white bird was terribly doted on by the emperor Yi who even ranked them with their appearances and qualities and “remunerated” them in accordance with their given “official positions” (Zuo, 2007). Zang Wenzhong, a contemporary of Yi, was obsessed with another unusual animal¬¬—turtles. Like Yi the emperor, Zang cosseted his pets by accommodating the turtles in luxury palaces and that solicited commotion leading to his own doomed end. Interestingly their pampery was harshly chastised by Confucius as a breach of ethical conventions. At that time petting had been exclusive for upper classes with wealth and power who despite the stereotypes of abusing animals pampered their pets with obscene extravagancy. During the Tang Dynasty (AC 618¬¬¬—AC 907) the royal members started raising exotic animals tributed by foreigners as their pets such as elephants, lions, and rhinos in the palace. At the same time petting was gaining popularity among public, and it was presented by the paintings that some people from middle and lower classes had small-sized pets like chicken, dogs, and cats. Animals were no longer merely food resources and pets were more than a time killer but an emotional support and religious and spiritual symbol as well (Li, 2017). Literati would also rest their hopes and sentiments on certain animals in poems. With an increasing demand in petting, a pet-friendly system was also built to condemn the animal-abusers and to compromise who thus lost their pets. In the Ming Dynasty (AC 1368¬¬—AC 1644), Wen Zhenheng recorded then elegant lifestyle of upper literati in his book Zhang Wu Zhi and described their choices of pets in one chapter. In the book Wen deemed pets as “a necessary art for those who live in solitude amongst the hills and woods” (Wen, 2015). By “necessary”, however, Wen meant it for upper class still since the book was written for them. In the Qing Dynasty (AC 1636¬—AC 1912), Man people brought with them nomadic culture and horses and birds were the majority of their choices of pets (She, 2019). In late Qing Dynasty people carrying a bird cage were common to be seen in the teahouses in Beijing as the symbol of their social statue. During the Cultural Revolution in 1960s and 1970s, pets were regarded as the component of the lifestyle of capitalism and therefore strictly forbidden. Pet owners have no choice but to hide, abandon, and even kill their pets. It was surely the most terrible era for pets and their owners. Nowadays in the 21th Century more and more Chinese have pets. Research showed that the pet market in China has increased 60% every year (Pitt, 2021). Analysts also expected that China’s pet industry will multiply 10 times that of a decade ago to 66 billion dollars. Even though petting system in China is still immature and still some people regard pet as emotionless animals, a more convenient society is being built for animal-lovers. Moreover, pets can get new jobs in cat-or-dog café and even make an income on social media. People’s attitude towards pets also changed a lot. Take dogs as example. Chinese used to treat dog as a source of meat. However, today the majority of dogs are viewed as companions and usually treated as family members (Coren, 2018).
===Conclusion===
In conclusion, pets were rare in ancient China, and most people who had pets were those in higher classes. Their pets were uncommon and exotic animals such as birds and fishes instead of dogs and cats. It is since the Tang Dynasty that people from lower classes started to have small animals as pets. However, in ancient times pets gained little popularity in general. In modern times with the increase of middle class and the influence of western culture, people’s attitude towards pets changed and dogs and cats are more accepted by public. Even though China has not been the most pet-friendly country, a mature petting system is now being built.

===Abstract===
Lv Opera, also known as Yangqin and Qinxi Opera, is a national intangible cultural heritage, one of the eight major operas in China, and the most representative local opera in Shandong Province. It is popular in most parts of Shandong Province and parts of Jiangsu, Anhui and Northeast China. It originated in the Yellow River Delta in northern Shandong Province and evolved from Shandong Qinshu. Its music belongs to Banqiang, and it also sings Qupai. The main accompaniment instruments are Zhuiqin (the main string), Yangqin, Sanxian and Pipa, which are called "the four major pieces of Lv Opera".It is deeply loved by the broad masses of the people with its simple and vivid language, beautiful and pleasant singing voice.

===Key Words===
Lv Opera;Cultural Heritage;Opera;Music Forms;Performing Arts

===Introduction===
Lv Opera originated in the Yellow River Delta, where the Yan and Zhao cultures, the Sanjin culture and the recent Beijing and Tianjin cultures have merged, making this area a long and colorful history of folk art. Among these arts, "Shuo Shu" is especially popular among the masses, and the storytellers use the local language familiar to the masses to interpret stories that express the emotional life and social patterns of the Qilu people. Huimin County," there is mentioned: "rap music in the lower reaches of the Yellow River in this area is quite prosperous, more than fifty miles southwest of Binzhou not far from the Yellow River there is a Huji village (belonging to Huimin County), where every year to hold a 'book meeting' to Huji as a gathering place, hiring rap artists from around the world to come to sing ". According to local elders, the "Huji Book Fair" was traced back to the Yuan Dynasty, and was even more prosperous in the early Qing Dynasty, and is still an annual event in Huimin. It can be inferred that this "book fair" provided the conditions for the introduction of the qinshu panel style, which also laid the main position of Shandong qinshu in the cultural activities of the Yellow River Delta at that time, and the predecessor of Lv opera sprouted in such an environment.

In terms of the distribution of Lv opera in Shandong Province, the Qinshu is divided into the east, the south and the north to spread. The various documentary sources can be summarized that it was not until around 1913 that Guangrao and Boxing completed the establishment of the board cadence and the mode of make-up performance respectively, which marked the basic formation of the prototype of Lv opera.

The germination of Lv opera is the fruit of the geographical environment, folk customs and folk art traditions of the Yellow River Delta region, and is the crystallization of the wisdom of the working people of Guangrao and Boxing. Lv opera emerged here, flourished here and developed from here, precisely because of the performance form of South Road Qinshu as the foundation, plus the later development and consolidation of East Road and North Road Qinshu, which facilitated the process of the birth of Lv opera.

Because of the connection between Lv opera and Shandong Qinshu, the repertoire of early Lv opera was mostly adapted from Shandong Qinshu, and some of the repertoire was transplanted from other genres. This type of repertoire was mainly based on folklore, and was created orally by the artists of the time according to the local customs and customs. After the test of time, scholars now classify this category of repertoire as "traditional repertoire". After the establishment of New China, according to the national policy of that time, Lv opera also created some new plays in response to the current trend, which are called "modern plays". Lv opera is still being developed, and the plays with historical themes that appear on the stage today are born out of the increasing aesthetic demand of the audience and the national policy of melody. The repertoire of Shandong Lv opera can be divided into three categories: "traditional plays", "modern plays" and "new historical plays".

The singing method of Lv opera is the same for both male and female cavities, but the male cavity is mainly sung in real voice, while the female cavity is sung in a combination of real and falsetto voice, and is five degrees higher than the male cavity. Since Lv opera originated from the art of rapping, there is no distinction between "singing" and "reading" in the performance.

When singing, Lv opera focuses on setting up the cadence with words, bringing the voice with emotion, singing with singing, spitting out words clearly, speaking naturally, and sounding natural and smooth. Compared with the high and aggressive Qin cadence and the soft and distant Kunqu, the singing voice of Lv opera is more lyrical and lingering. It is often used for the glissando, trill and ornamentation, and it is important for the words to be correct. The combination of soft tone, trill, beating tone and overtone of the falling qin makes the whole singing stretching and beautiful. Shandong Lv opera has absorbed the artistic components of the clapper cavity, so it is also based on the board cavity, and its singing voice can be roughly divided into two categories: "Siping cavity" and "two boards".

Lv opera is mostly about small matters between parents and neighbors, so it is rare to see actors doing fighting on the stage of Lv opera, and the plays with more action are only exaggerated renditions of real-life actions. It was only after a large number of new historical dramas were created that more and more martial arts plays were seen on the stage of Lv opera. "Doing" and "fighting" are usually combined with each other in opera performances. The female roles require a higher level of "doing", such as "lying fish", which requires the actor to be skilled in terms of flexibility, balance and waist and leg strength.

After a hundred years of development, Lv Opera has been included in the list of intangible cultural heritage of China and is one of the eight major local operas in China, which can be said to be a small achievement. However, as an important member of Chinese traditional culture, it inevitably encounters various obstacles in the process of development. In order to pass on Lv opera better, it is inevitable that reasonable and effective countermeasures should be formulated in conjunction with the characteristics of the times.

===Conclusion===
The current situation of Lv Opera in Shandong province is not optimistic.Many professional Lv Opera troupes have been gradually renamed or merged,or even completely disappeared.The inheritance of Lv Opera has become increasingly difficult. The younger generation,who genuinely love Lv Opera and perform it,are also less and less.The audience is aging.Based on these conditions,it is not only necessary to carry out the task of promoting traditional culture to individuals,but also requires the government to increase its investment in culture and art, and introduce more effective policies.

==Chinese Culture and A Child’s Education==

<center> Wellsand, Benjamin, 202111080018 </center>

===Abstract===

The social conditions of China have never been more taxing when it comes to a decades-long engrained child education culture and a problematic rapidly aging population. The social constructs of the longstanding loyalty to kinship and interdependence of collectivism within China place a cyclical concern from parent to child as one looks out for the other to ensure a fruitful economic future. The 1950s one-child policy has not only served to slow birth rates but has inadvertently allowed for a significant amount of finances to be set aside for the future of an only child to ensure the desired monetary success. The Chinese Communist Party has recognized the challenges the future of the country faces as a result of past policies and is seeking to revolutionize the education culture in order to permit Chinese families to grow without fear of missing out on a profitable and fulfilling future for the entire family unit. The modern-day CCP and the ancient philosopher, Confucius, align in their understanding of the vital role that the family plays in the future health of Chinese society.

===Key Words===

Collective Culture; Filial Piety; Kinship Culture; Private Education; Standardized Testing

===Introduction===

In Chinese culture, the family name is displayed prominently before the individual’s given name as a clear indicator of the honor given to the family unit and the collective nature by which the individual is viewed within foundational societal institutions. China is a culture that is overtly centered on kinship. “Male offspring were especially valued for their role in carrying on the family name, explains Li Liu of Beijing Normal University, “without a male heir, a family line originating from its ancestors is terminated, and the family’s place in the universe gets lost forever.” (2007: 57) China is world-renown for having the largest population. Beginning in the 1950s, the population grew on a steep trajectory from 540 million to 940 million by 1976. The booming industrialization caused concern of famine and housing shortages as more people were expected to start searching for higher-paying urban jobs as opposed to working on farms. In response to these concerns, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) started limiting births provincially in 1979 and finally standardized the one-child policy in 1980 which limited ethnic Chinese to only one child per couple. The fertility rate dropped from 6.1 in 1990 to 1.16 in 2021. (Master & Zhang 2022)

It is the cultural importance placed upon a male heir to carry on the family name that explains the resulting current skewed sex ratio. (Statista 2021) Charles Kraft shares, “Family and relatives are the big things to [kinship cultures]. Those with family are wealthy (whether or not they have any money).” (1996: 121) Great financial responsibility is placed upon a son’s family who is seeking to find a wife for him. 房子 (house), 车子 (car), and 票子 (money) are viewed as the requirements that should be met in order for a daughter to agree to take a man as her husband. While housing prices have steadied (Aljazeera 2022), the job market continues to be a challenge do to an economic slow from the COVID-19 pandemic. (Bloomberg News 2022)

There is an inordinate amount of competition in children’s education that accompanies these high social demands. Laurie Chen (2018) reports that more than sixty percent of primary school children (up to seventy percent in larger cities) were tutored outside of the classroom and parents paid an average of 120,000 RMB on up to 300,000 RMB for extracurricular education. The 双一流 (double first-class initiative) higher education ranking leaves limited space for academic success. Zhang Duanhong (2019), writes of “the ‘exhausting high school, carefree university’ paradigm, in which university life is treated as a reward for making it through the rigors of the country’s college entrance exam.” The 90 percent graduation rate further limits the space available in universities and increased entry competition. The highly competitive nature in higher education has conditioned both sexes to pursue the greatest quality of education and the highest paid positions obtainable. Students must place their entire life on hold and focus all attention on study.

To ease the high societal demands of childrearing and encourage population growth, the CCP has made significant policy changes in areas such as private education (Koty 2021), maternity leave (Huang & Huang 2021), afterschool childcare (Zhang 2021), along with child subsidies (Ma 2022). Yet it remains an uphill battle to change the social conditioning of a country built around a single-child family. The 鸡娃 (chicken baby) parenting mentality continues on despite best efforts to curb this longstanding trend. (Feng 2021) Private education has not disappeared but has simply undergone a transformation as is the case with English tutors turned online product salespeople. (Jia 2022) Private education companies are believed to shift as well from educators to a rebranding as providers of AI products, software, and services for public education institutions. (Knox 2021)

The philosopher, Confucius, upon whose teaching pillars Chinese society is built, was a strong advocate of the family. He recognized human flourishing occurring within five complex relationships and three of these are familial: father/son, elder/younger brother, and husband/wife. Confucius felt that it was “in the context of the family that we acquire the building blocks for navigating the wildly complex relational networks that comprise human society.” (Ten Elshof, 2015: 14) Filial piety is no surprise in the face of a culture that centers on the family. Liu explains, “Filial piety is more than just showing filial obedience to parents: most importantly, it indicates raising sons to support aging parents and having sons to continue the family line.” (2007: 56) This too is a practice that finds support within Confucianism as a “value that calls on adult children to fulfill obligations to respect, obey, support, and care for elderly parents.” (Shea, Moore, & Zhang, 2020: 29) 养儿防老 (to bring up children for the purpose of being looked after in old age) is the Chinese parental motto that shows the expectations placed upon the children to care for their aging parents. Caring for the aged will only increase in difficulty as the average age of Chinese citizens rises. (Campbell 2019) Further exacerbating the age demographic phenomena is that this comes on the heels of the one-child policy that leaves two sets of aging parents on the shoulders of one married couple. Tang Youcai and Jeanne Shea discovered that those coming from rural areas “have both higher proportions of elderly folks and lower levels of economic development.” (2020: 92)

===Conclusion===

A collective, kinship country that is culturally conditioned to associate the wellbeing and preservation of the family with social and economic success finds itself in the face of a challenging future. The CCP is working tirelessly to show it supports and recognizes the need for the Chinese family, only that it has one major issue with it: its size. The battle for the family that started in Confucius’s day continues in the present. The academic atmosphere that crescendos at standardized testing (Li 2019) and a highly competitive job market that leaves even college graduates in a tight spot (Pike 2022) places the child’s education at front and center in the battle for social survival. The weight of the future of China predictably rests, from a cultural perspective, on the shoulders of the family unit.

===Introduction===
Pepper was introduced into China from America at the end of the Ming Dynasty, but at first it was only used as ornamental crops and medicines. In the early Qing Dynasty, Guizhou and its neighboring areas were the first to eat chili. In Guizhou, where salt was scarce, during the reign of Emperor Kangxi (1662-1722), "soil seedlings were used to replace salt". Pepper played a role in replacing salt, which shows that it is closely related to life. From the Qianlong period (1736-1795), a large number of hot peppers were eaten in Guizhou. During the reign of Qianlong, Zhenxiong, Yunnan, which was adjacent to Guizhou, and Chenzhou Prefecture, Hunan, in the east of Guizhou, also began to eat chili. After Jiaqing (1796-1820), pepper was widely planted in Guizhou, Hunan, Sichuan and Jiangxi provinces. It was recorded in Jiaqing that Jiangxi, Hunan, Guizhou and Sichuan had begun to "grow as vegetables".

During Daoguang's reign (1821-1850), the northern part of Guizhou was already in a situation of"every meal must be filled with peppers". The rice wrapped in grain was popular in Tongzhi. The dish used mostly bean curd, that is, water soaked salt and sea pepper, which was used to dip in water, a little like the sea pepper dip in Sichuan Fushun bean curd today.

In some areas of Hunan, hot pepper was not very common during the Jiaqing period, but it was more common among Daoguang, Xianfeng, Tongzhi and Guangxu. According to the Qing barnyard banknotes in the late Qing Dynasty, "people in Yunnan, Guizhou, Hunan and Sichuan loved spicy food", "people in Hunan and Hubei liked spicy food", and "people in Hunan and Hubei could not eat spicy food without pepper and mustard, so there was plenty of soup", indicating that people in Hunan and Hubei had become accustomed to spicy food in the late Qing Dynasty, and they even put pepper into soup.

The record of edible pepper in Sichuan was later than Hubei’s. Neither in the book of Yongzheng's Sichuan Tongzhi nor Jiaqing's Sichuan Tongzhi recorded the cultivation and eating of pepper, and the earliest recorded pepper may be in Jiaqing. From the perspective of the areas where pepper was planted and eaten in Jiaqing, Sichuan, they are mainly located in the Chengdu Plain and the Daba Mountains area in the south and southwest of Sichuan and the borders of Sichuan, Hubei and Shaanxi. After Daoguang, Xianfeng and Tongzhi, Sichuan's edible chilies began to become popular, and even chilies were "planted all over the mountains" in Sichuan. After Guangxu, Sichuan's edible chili was more common. In addition to being widely eaten, there were a lot of records of eating chili in the classic recipes. According to Fu Chongju's Chengdu Overview in the late Qing Dynasty, there were 1328 kinds of dishes in Chengdu at that time. Pepper has become one of the main condiments in Sichuan cuisine, including hot oil sea pepper, sea pepper noodles, etc., especially the double cooked pork in Sichuan cuisine was officially recorded in written records. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, eating pepper has become an important feature of Sichuan people's diet. Xu Xinyu's Records of Traveling in Sichuan recorded that "Sichuan people must choose the most spicy ones to eat, and every meal and dish must be hot."

When did Yunnan begin to eat spicy food? Zhenxiong, Yunnan, which is close to Guizhou, ate hot pepper during the Qianlong Period, but it was not very common in Yunnan during the Qianjia Period. There was no record of chilli in the Tongzhi of Yunnan during the Guangxu period, but people began to eat chilli in large quantities as early as the Guangxu period. According to the Records of Visiting Sichuan by Xu Xinyu in the late Qing Dynasty, his father found in Ya'an that the chili peppers transported into Yunnan every year through Ya'an, Sichuan, were "quantity is nearly hundreds of thousands. The amount of chili peppers eaten by Yunnan people is not less than that of Sichuan people". Therefore, Xu Ke's Qing barnyard banknote at the end of the Qing Dynasty said: "Yunnan, Guizhou, Hunan and Sichuan people are fond of spicy food." According to the records in the Textual Research on the Names and Facts of Plants, edible chili peppers had been planted in Jiangxi during the Jiaqing period. During the Guangxu period, edible chili peppers had become more common in Jiangxi, and now Jiangxi Nankang chili sauce is very famous.

Pepper has been introduced into China for about 400 years, but this foreign spice soon became popular all over China, taking the position of traditional Chinese prickly ash, ginger and cornus officinalis. The consumption of Chinese prickly ash was squeezed into Sichuan Basin, the hometown of Chinese prickly ash. Cornus officinalis almost completely withdrew from the stage of Chinese food spice, and the position of ginger was largely withdrawn from the diet. The introduction of chili into Chinese food is undoubtedly a food revolution. The powerful chili makes it impossible for any traditional spice to compete with it. The revolution was only a little slow due to the constraints of traffic and information at that time.

What about court dishes?
one book records the dishes used to celebrate the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month, including "Spicy Rabbit". However, there was no detailed description of what kind of dish it was. In the following Qing Dynasty, a dish named "Spicy Rabbit Silk" also appeared in Tioding Collection. Shredded chicken soup simmer, add yellow rice wine, soy sauce, onion, ginger juice, Chinese prickly ash, and soybean powder to finish the soup.

No pepper is used, but pepper is added, so the name of the dish has the word "spicy". It should have the same taste as the "spicy" in the "spicy live rabbit" in the "Records of Drinking". There are two kinds of flavors without chilli. As for whether rabbit meat is used, why the dish is called "Spicy Rabbit" is an unsolved mystery. In the Records of Drinking, dozens of famous dishes in the imperial court are listed. In addition to the aforementioned "Spicy Rabbit", there is also a dish called "Spicy Soup", which is a soup to drink every morning to prevent cold in November. Nowadays, ginger soup is often drunk to prevent cold. The "hot soup" here may be of the same type. As for other places where pepper is used, none of them has been found.

===Conclusion===
Even in the Qing Dynasty, pepper still did not enter the court. The Manchu people did not even have the habit of eating mustard seeds. "A Dream of Red Mansions" describes the dishes made of vinegar, as well as various other cooking methods, but hot dishes never appeared.

===Introduction===
In the 5,000 years of Chinese culture, music has slowly flowed with the history to modern times. Whenever you hear an ancient rhythm, it is like going back in time to the days of small bridges and flowing water and talented people. This is our own Chinese beauty. The Rites of Zhou states that ancient Chinese musical instruments can be divided into the "eight tones" - gold, stone, earth, leather, silk, wood, lagen and bamboo. The chime is a representative of "gold", and is also known as a "national treasure"! Emerging from a time of turmoil, it has been passed down for thousands of years.
The chime is an ancient traditional percussion instrument made of bronze, with a combination of flat round bells of different sizes, each with a different pitch. In two dimensions, the chimes are narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, with uneven edges around the mouth. Most of the chimes are beautifully carved and decorated, or lined with elaborate drums, which are known as bell-nipples.

First appearing in the Shang dynasty, the chime was born in the midst of chaos and was popularised in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States, where it remained in use until the Ming and Qing dynasties. It can be said to have emerged from the chaotic times and to have been handed down for thousands of years. The early chimes were mostly made up of three or five pieces, and could play simple old tunes.

The chimes of the Ming and Qing dynasties were completely different from the traditional chimes, not only in form but also in tone, and by this time the music of the chimes had long since lost the majesty and coolness of the chimes. Chimes were generally used for courtly music, and in the early days, they were used for major occasions such as conquests, banquets and rituals, so that in ancient times they were also a symbol of status and power, and only the ruler had the right to use them. In the Poetic Edda, there is a phrase that refers to the chimes: "I use the chimes and drums of music to please my fair lady", and they were also used in large banquets and dances.

Most of the chimes from the Western Zhou period are oval in shape with a narrow top and a wide bottom, and a large number of performance scores were recorded on the bodies of the chimes, the ultimate purpose of which was to facilitate rehearsal and performance, and which accidentally became the carrier of chime culture. From the Qin dynasty onwards the chimes gradually pursued aesthetic appearance, neglecting the effect of the sound itself, and the Qing dynasty's lack of attention to ritual and music led to the gradual loss of many of the finest bronze chime casting techniques. During the Han dynasty, chimes fell into decline, and although they were still a symbol of the status of the emperor, they were far removed from the chimes of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, and were even inferior to those of the pre-Qin period in terms of silencing. After more than 500 years at its peak, the chimes still went into decline.

From the Song dynasty onwards, foreign musical instruments flowed in and other traditional instruments emerged, gradually eliminating chimes from court performance, and by the Qing dynasty they were shaped into mere decorative objects that could not be played. The art of bell casting was lost from the Song dynasty, but when the Zeng Houyi Chimes were unearthed, the Chinese Cultural Affairs Bureau set up the Zeng Houyi Chimes Reproduction Research Group, which succeeded in reproducing a full set of Zeng Houyi Chimes in 1984, and the technology of bell casting came back to light.The recovery of the chime casting technique has led to an increasing focus on the preservation and promotion of traditional culture.

Mr. Robert, husband of the famous female singer Ms. Gong Linna, first saw a replica of the Zeng Houyi Chimes in 2005 and heard the sound of the chimes live, the teacher was instantly blown away, after which he became addicted to chime music and couldn't help himself, wanting to successfully put chime music symbols in modern society, creating "Mountain Ghost" in 2007, and in 2009, with the help of the Hong Kong Orchestra and the National Orchestra Together, they created "Bell Music and Harmony". In 2018, Ms. Gong Linna and Robert used chimes to perfectly interpret Qu Yuan's "Li Sao" on the programme "Classics Flow", allowing the ancient sound that had been dormant for thousands of years to appear on modern television programmes and allowing audiences across the country to appreciate the charm of chimes.

At the Shanghai World Expo the chimes were the face of modern music, and Professor Kong Fan from the University of Science and Technology of China brought his research team to the Shanghai Expo to combine the chimes with modern technology to create a magnetic levitation chime that was a breath of fresh air. With a strong magnet made of rare earth roundness in each chime, which determines the levitating position of the bronze chimes through high speed detection thousands of times per second, this group of magnetically levitated chimes has once again amazed the world.

===Conclusion===
The sound of chimes, which has been flowing in history for 2,500 years, has finally reappeared through modern technology, presenting us with a visual feast. Among the four ancient civilisations, Chinese culture is the most completely preserved, adapting and surviving in modern times to the last, all of which, apart from the research led by scientists, is inseparable from the many, many heirs and lovers of traditional culture. In this age of colourfulness and diversity, traditional culture deserves its place too!

===Introduction===
Live streaming was not initially a product of the network. In The Radio and Television Dictionary, live streaming refers to the post-synthesis and broadcast of radio programs at the same time, and live television broadcast is the broadcast method of producing and broadcasting television programs simultaneously with the occurrence and development process of events.” It can be seen that live streaming firstly appeared on traditional media radio and television stations.
On January 1, 2008, the General Office of the State Council put forward a notice proposing to promote the integration of the Three Networks (telecommunication network, computer network and cable TV network). Until today, the integration of the three networks has experienced twelve years of development. Under the background of the continuous progress of interconnection technology, cell phone has been transformed from a simple communication tool to a multifunctional device integrating communication, TV watching and the internet access. With the increasing number of cell phones, the number of cell phone users also continues to go high, providing support for the development of cell phone live steaming. Taking advantage of a large number of live streaming platforms, the connotation of network live streaming also transformed from the early program broadcast into the broadcast of life scenes that the general public can participate in, which is a leap forward.
===Categories of Living Streaming===
(1)According to the main body of live streaming, it can be divided into star live streaming, net celebrity live streaming and common people live streaming. Star live is held by actors, athletes and other celebrities with a certain degree of fame and attention in the mass media, the audience of star live is mainly fans. The purpose of star live is often to let fans see the daily life of the stars to close the distance. Net celebrity live is held by the network celebrities who have become popular in micro blogging, short video platform or other social platforms, and some of them are professional anchors. As opposed to stars and net celebrities, the rest of the ordinary anchors who do not have great influence and attention are collectively referred to as common people live.
(2)According to the live content, live streaming can be generally divided into four categories: live show, live game, live pan-life broadcast and live streaming sale. Show live is the earliest type of live streaming, and it requires the anchors to show their talents. Game live is about electronic games, and most of them are competitive games and it has a certain threshold for both parties - the game anchor is generally required to be proficient or at least familiar with the game being broadcast; the audience is at least aware of the game, otherwise they cannot participate well in the live viewing. Pan-life live streaming refers to the live streaming that shows daily life, where the anchor simply sings, casually chats, eats and shows their daily life. It is live and casual and with no rehearsal, and anyone with a device can become an anchor by registering an account. As the fastest growing type of live streaming since 2016, pan-life live streaming is leading the wave of live streaming with a “mobile live for all” approach. Live streaming sale is an emerging commercial activity which aims to sale goods, and it is all about introduction and exhibition of products.
===Patterns of Interaction in Live Streaming===
(1)Get connected: anchor to anchor interaction
This is a way of interaction between two anchors to achieve a more interesting live broadcast and share fans through a common broadcasting room. It is to connect the live rooms of two hosts, and the way to get connected is that the host can choose to connect with a host they are familiar with or be randomly matched by the system. For viewers, they can see both hosts on the same live screen at the same time. The anchors will chat, sing, play games and so on to make the live streaming more interesting, and at the same time the anchor will also recommend their own fans to pay attention to the other anchor. The fans watching the live broadcast do not have the loyalty between traditional idols and fans, so the anchors can achieve the purpose of sharing fans and maximizing benefits.
(2)Pop-ups and gifts: fan-anchor interaction
The explosive growth of User Generated Content (UGC) attracts large-scale internet users to join the content interaction, and “gifts and pop-ups” constitute the basic ecology of live streaming culture. Pop-ups gives fans an opportunity to express their emotions, and gifts is another important way for fans to interact with anchors, which first existed in original literature websites, and then was introduced as an innovative payment function by self-media and gradually introduced by major platforms.
(3)Melt media interaction: the establishment of cross-platform fan group
Senior anchors do not limit themselves to interacting with their fans briefly on the live platform, but will establish WeChat or QQ fan groups to achieve cross-platform interaction. The establishment of fan groups can make the interaction between fans and anchors more intimate. The fan groups of popular anchors have certain requirements in terms of access qualifications, such as the amount of bounty, frequency of interaction, etc., and anchors will also use fan groups to give back to their fans, such as more interaction, red packets or other benefits.
===Conclusion===
On the one hand, live streaming has brought many beneficial effects to people’s lives. People have a new way to learn and express themselves. And also its platform advantages can make it a disseminator of excellent culture and promote people towards cultural confidence and cultural self-awareness.
On the other hand, the trend of network live entertainment is obvious, and overly entertaining and vulgarized content is popping up, which to some extent hinders the spread and popularization of socialist core values. Therefore, restrictions should be taken to standardize live streaming.

===Introduction===
I. Origin and Development of Imagery in Chinese Classical Poems

Imagery is the soul and the core of the Chinese classical poetry. Based on the actual experiences and feelings, imagery exceeds the simple physical image, and it’s a reflection of the poet's imagination and divergence thinking. In Chinese literary tradition, the expression “Yi Xiang”(意象) has existed since ancient times, and it “has long been a concern of Chinese poetry from its very beginning.” (Pauline Yu 1987,3) It’s used to “denote a verbal expression that evokes a mental picture or recalls a physical sensation, not necessarily visual” (James Y. Liu 1962,101) Actually, the imagery and its theoretical system have undergone three upgrades, and then gradually developed into the one we’re familiar with, i.e. the objective things in poetry fusing the poet's subjective feelings and aspirations.

The first theoretical promotion occurred in the Pre-Qin times, based on Zhuangzi’s “words don’t exhaust meaning” and “The Sages established the images to give fullness of the concepts in their minds” in Commentaries on the Book of Changes (Stephen Owen 1992,31). In Wei and Jin Dynasties, the second promotion was marked by Wang Bi’s further illustration on the triadic structure of “the concept in mind”(意), “images”(象) and “words”(言) in his book Elucidation of the Images(《明象》), which indicates that words exists for images, and images for the concept in mind. It was Liu Xie in Han Dynasty who exactly introduced image into literary and endowed it with aesthetic connotation, which signals the third theoretical promotion. In his book Carving a Dragon with a Literary Mind, Liu stated “a uniquely discerning carpenter wield his axe with his eye to the concept-image”.

II. Interpretation of Typical Imageries

1. Botanical Imagery

1) Willow
Willow is always employed to express sentiment attached to parting. In Han Dynasty, there formed the custom of “breaking off a willow branch for leave-taking”. The pronunciation of “柳” in Chinese is similar with “留”, which means “(want someone) to stay”, endowing the willow with sensibilities of missing someone or the sadness of departure.

2) Wutong trees
Wutong, also known as plane or Chinese parasol, is closely associated with autumn and a melancholy mood. Wutong usually conveys a sense of grief and desolation. And the half dead wutong can be compared to the middle-aged widower or widow.

3) Chrysanthemum
Blooming in autumn, the Chrysanthemum often symbolizes loftiness, constancy, integrity and nobility of a character as well as a secluded life, especially in Tao Yuanming’s poems.
By the way, some botanical imageries, such as bamboo, pine trees and plum-blossom, share similar symbolic meaning to some extent.

2. Animal Imagery

1) Cuckoo

Cuckoo, also named “子规” or “子鹃” in Chinese, is associated with farewell because its call sounds like the pronunciation of “不如归去”(bùrúguīqù), which means “It’s better to return.” Wandering travelers far away from hometown will be touched when hearing such sounds, which evoke their distress and homesickness. Moreover, when departing with friends or relatives, people are always sorrowful, hoping they can soon return.

2) Crane
For one thing, the natural image of the crane, full of vitality and soaring in the sky, often embodies the poet’s yearning for a free and secluded life. For another, the crane symbolizes longevity and mourning, showing poet’s life-worrying consciousness. Additionally, as an important cultural icon of Taoism, the crane is associate with immortality, which reflects the holiness of Taoism and the religious ideal of pursuing the freedom and the eternity.

3) Swallow
Swallows are migratory birds whose return heralds the coming of spring. Therefore, swallow imagery, firstly, is to render the poet's appreciation of the pleasant spring. Besides, swallows often appear in pairs in people’s houses or under the eaves, hence two swallows embody an enviable love or love-sickness. Finally, in some poems, the swallow represents the poet’s indignation about vicissitudes of the past as well as the country’s subjugation and destruction.

3. Inanimate Imagery

1) Moon
The moon, with various appellations in Chinese, such as “玉弓”, “银盘”, “婵娟”, etc., is one of the most commonly-used imageries in Chinese poetry. It implicates the general Chinese national mentality and denotes the obscured illusions of the Chinese spiritual homestead. The moon implies homesickness, especially when it is full, which symbolizes a perfect home life or a happy union. On the contrary, a waning moon indicates destitution or separation. Even today, those who are far from home would feel homesick and forlorn at the sight of the moon, just like the writer of “Still Night Thought”.

2) River
In China, the Yangtze River and the Yellow River are two main rivers, which originates from the southwest of China hence flowing eastward. So the imagery of river appears always accompanied with words “flowing eastward”. Sometimes poets use it as a metaphor for a moral, hermetic life, obstruction or time. Also, it’s a symbol of separation with sadness, because in ancient China poets usually send their friends or families off by the riverside.

3) East wind and west wind
Due to geographical factors, “east wind” in China, as a sign of spring, brings warmth and speeds the greening of plants and spurs love. Conversely, “west wind” in China symbolizes chilly coldness in winter, which is connected with something bleak and desolate.

===Conclusion===
There’re three major theoretical upgrades before the imagery theory we understand today gradually formed. Due to its rich connotations, profound philosophy and unique spirit, the proper comprehension of imagery is the key to appreciate and experience the charm of poetry. Moreover, the study of imagery is of great significance to the study of Chinese classical literature as well as the inheritance of Chinese traditional culture.

===Introduction===
The Chinese people consider tigers as power, luck, righteousness, valour and vigour in their country, so they use anything about tiger to avoid disasters. From the ancient China, “tiger culture” has begun to spread.
At the beginning, tiger culture was originated from totems. During Yin and Zhou Dynasty, our ancestors engraved tiger patterns on bronze wares; In the military dimensions, the emperors used Military Tiger Talisman(虎符) to move their military troops, and it also means the sovereign power of the ruling class; The ancient people also engraved tiger patterns on eaves and used those eaves to build houses, which means their houses peaceful and auspicious; During Chinese New Year, the Chinese people not only paste “Door God” on their doors, but also paste pictures of a tiger. In folk, Chinese parents make tiger head shoes for their children, because “The folk believes that ‘dog doesn’t eat dog’(虎毒不食子). For the safety and healthy growth of children, people make tiger-faced shoes and hats to knock on luck, drive away evil and avoids evil.” (Liu Jia, 2010, 201) Therefore, tiger-faced shoes play the role in Chinese culture: to bring luck and auspiciousness, to prevent disasters from children, and to make a hope that children could grow up healthily and happily.
===Origin===
The origin of tiger-faced shoes, or Hutou Xie, can date back to the Stone Age.There are a lot of fairy tales about tiger-faced shoes. According to Quan Yue(2022, 148-151), once upon a time, a young boatman whose surname is Shi lived on the bank of the Yellow River, and he helped the local residents cross the river every day. One day, an old lady in a hurry to cross the river to ask a midwife to give a birth to her daughter-in-law’s child. However, Unexpectedly that the old lady was dizzy when her was on the boat, so the young boatman had to help the old woman to ask a midwife alone. Then the second day, on the birth of her grandson, the old lady sent a painting to the young boatman as a present for his kindness.
In that painting, there was a beautiful girl. And the next day, the beautiful girl became a real girl standing in front of the boatman, and then, they got married. Several years later, a local official wanted to rob of the beauty, so the girl ran into the picture again. Then the official roared to the picture: “if you do not out, I will break you into pieces!” The girl was extremely afraid.
While at the boatman’s home, the old lady made a pair of red shoes which shaped like a tiger’s head to the boatman’s son, and said: “Putting on the pair of red shoes to save you mom!.” After that, the little boy ran to save his mom, and when he came in the official’s home, he was angry and suddenly, his shoes became a fierce tiger! The tiger ate the official in one bite, and finally, the boy saved his mom. The family reunited happily. This is one of the origin of tiger head shoes.
===Design===
In most areas of China, the main colors of tiger-faced shoes are red and yellow. While tailors sew the mouth, nose and eyes of the tiger with thick threads. “When making tiger-faced shoes, some people like decorating tigers’ eyes and ears with rabbit fur. With three colors of red, yellow and white, the tiger-faced shoes look vivid.”(Xu Xiren, 2017, 144) At the same time, different people use different colors to decorate the shoes. For example, the Han people often use yellow cloth to decorate tiger head shoes, while the Yi people like using white cloth.
As to the appearance of tiger-faced shoes, in general, the appearance of a pair of tiger-faced shoes is tiger-liked pattern, on which has eyes, mouth, nose and beard. While in different places, tiger patterns on shoes have slight differences, for example, “In north China, the design of tiger head is more exaggerated and more rugged, while in abundant Jiangnan, the design is more delicate.”(Wang Chenlin, 2019, 69) Chen Hui also described that in Henan province, tiger head shoes have rough shape and strong local flavor; in Shandong province, the head of shoes is more prone to be like cat head, lion head or dragon head.(Chen Hui, 2017, 192)
===Implied meaning and value===
In traditional Chinese culture, people attach great importance to their children. Parents hope their children will have bright future and also, they hope they can be taken good care of by their kids when they are old. So parents have high expectations for their kids.
When children are little babies, their parents use kinds of ways which might be superstitious to protect them from dangers. For example, when a baby is born, the first person who holds the baby is serious in China, because the Chinese people think the behavior will pass good luck, a healthy body and so on to the kid, so they require the person who is the first to hold their new-born baby is of good health and good fortune and so on.
Therefore, tiger-faced shoes are of the same significance for Chinese parents. Tiger, the king of beasts, has the implied meaning of good luck and power in China, so parents make tiger-shoes for their little baby to prevent dangers, bad luck and disease. Meanwhile, according to Yin Zhuoran, he said a pair of tiger-faced shoes “有鼻子有眼” (has a nose and big eyes), which means the one who wears it is a complete and healthy person.(Yin Zhuoran, 2010, 185) Yang Xueqin also referred to that “In folk art, women's fabric products, embroidery, paper cut and other designs, follow the idea symbolized by the metaphor, and are subject to the wishes of happiness and luck...”(Yang Xueqin, 1990, 179) Such statements implied that those who wear tiger head shoes will be a healthy, auspicious and happy person.
Also, the shape of the shoes is matched with children’s growing feet, letting children walking freely.
Tigers have strong life, and the Chinese people praise highly of it, which can be shown in some Chinese idioms such as “生龙活虎” “如龙似虎” “龙腾虎跃” (all of these idioms mean someone has vitality and vigour) and so on. All of these idioms contain a high appreciation for tigers, so parents hope their new-born babies have strong life just like tigers. Also, tigers have a positive impression in Chinese people’s hearts, so they also hope their kids could have the same good characters with tigers in the world.
===Conclusion===
As a part of traditional Chinese culture, tiger-faced shoes has been handed down by the Chinese people from generation to generation, and people innovate it in different ways. Ding Xiaojia once mentioned in his article: “Tiger shaped pillow and tiger-shaped earthenware are very like modeling of tiger-head shoes in spirit. People are using another way to express their respect for tiger-head shoes’ auspicious meaning.”(Ding Xiaojia, 2015, 628) The combination of traditional craftsmanship with constant innovation has kept the vitality of tiger-faced shoes. And with the shoes, Chinese parents place the best wishes on their children. so, in today’s world, it is important for us to inherit and spread the culture of tiger-faced shoes, as well as making innovation constantly. Only doing these will our fine traditional Chinese culture flourish.

<center>Zhang Yuyan张玉燕,202270081681</center>
===Abstract===
Horseface skirt (also named mamianqun or mamianzhequn) is one of the main skirt styles of ancient China. Originated from the Song Dynasty, flourished in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, horseface skirt is inherited and favored by people all over the world. Therefore, I’d like to devote this article to introducing horseface skirt so that readers can learn something about its history, structure, patterns and colors, thus bringing it to the world.

===中国马面裙===
===摘要===
马面裙又名“马面褶裙”，是中国古代裙式的主要代表之一。它源于宋代，盛于明清，延续至今，受到无数人的青睐。在此，我想借此文介绍马面裙，让读者了解其发展历史、结构特征、图案纹样、色彩搭配等，使中国的马面裙走向世界。
===关键词===
马面裙、历史发展、结构特征、图案纹样、色彩搭配

===Introduction===
When it comes to “horseface skirt (also mamianqun)”, you may be amazed by its name. So why is it called that? Some people believe that it’s because the skirt doors look quite similar to “mamian”, which refers to the defensive structure of the ancient city wall. While others think that its middle skirt door, which is a rectangle, is like a long horse face. Therefore, this part of skirt is named as “mamian”, and the skirt itself is called mamianqun (also horseface skirt) (Cai Liming 1993,379).

The word “Ma Mian” first appeared in the ''Ming Palace''(Qi Ziyu 2012，2). And the history of horseface skirt can be traced back to “spin skirt” in the Song Dynasty. So, what’s spin skirt? Actually, it is a functional dress designed for women’s donkey riding. Meng Hui said, “This type of Song skirt is composed of two equal but independent trains. When making a skirt, the two parts are partially stacked together and sewn to the waist (Caoxue,Wang Qunshan 2016,109).” Because of its shape and structure, it’s considered to be the embryonic form of horseface skirt. In Ming Dynasty, the horseface skirt gradually formed. With its simple style and beautiful color, it impressed people with its elegance. From the royal nobles to the common people, everyone wore horseface skirts. However, in terms of the texture, decoration, and color, there were strict differences among classes. Since the foundation of the Qing Dynasty, horseface skirt evolved from a general skirt for men and women to a skirt only for women, and more forms appeared, such as pleated skirt, yuehua skirt, and fengwei skirt. In the 21st century, to some extent, the rise of Hanfu movement has once again promoted horseface skirt, and it’s still favored by world people.

====The Structure of Horseface Skirt====
“The Yi (the upper garment) and Shang (the lower skirt)”is one of the clothing forms in Chinese civilization, and horseface skirt is a kind of “Shang”, which is mainly composed of four parts, namely, the skirt door, the skirt flank, the skirt couplet and the waistband. There are 4 skirt doors at the front, back, inside and outside, overlapping each other. The two skirt flanks refer to the side folds of the skirt. And two skirt couplets are two pieces, which are partially stacked together and sewn to the waist. While the waistband functions to gird the waist with the help of beltloops. It is this special design that allows the wearer to move freely without being too revealing，which reflects the implicit and introverted national temperament of the Chinese nation.

====The Patterns of Horseface Skirt====
Let’s move on, and learn about its patterns! There are two types of horseface skirt patterns -- separate embroidery patterns and large embroidery patterns,among which the separate embroidery patterns account for the majority. Each pattern conveys a different meaning. Taking the animal patterns “dragon” and “phoenix” as an example, in the long history of China, dragon and phoenix are considered to be auspicious. They are seen to be the symbols of prosperity, solemnity and power. Therefore, these patterns are mostly found in the clothes of ancient emperors and their concubines. Taking the pattern of “fish” as another example, fish harmonizes with "Yu"（in mandarin）,which conveys the good meaning of having a surplus for the next year in China. People also embroider some plants and flowers on their horseface skirts, such as our national flower peony, which represents wealth and nobility; the undefiled lotus, which symbolizes purity; the golden chrysanthemum, which represents longevity; and lily, which represents sacredness and holiness, friendship and a bright future (Sun Hui ,Wu Yue 2017,11).

====The Colors of Horseface Skirt====
Generally speaking, in terms of color, horseface skirt can be divided into solid color horse face skirt and colorful horseface skirt (such as yuehua skirt). Horseface skirts are always gorgeous in color, mostly red, followed by blue and other colors(Zhang Pei，Yang Jingyi 2022,80).That’s because the red color represents joy and auspiciousness, which can bring people hopes and wishes for a better life in the future, and give them a sense of happiness. Therefore, it seems that Chinese people naturally love the red color instead of some other dark colors, such as black. Nowadays, young and creative designers are making the horseface skirt more colorful, beautiful and attractive. They are very skillful at striking a wonderful balance between cold and warm colors, and pay attention to the contrast of colors with different brightness and purity, thus making more peoplef fall in love with horseface skirt.

===Conclusion===
The horseface skirt did originate from China and has a very long history. While in July, Dior appropriated Chinese horseface skirt culture and insisted that its collection was an original design, which infuriated Chinese students who took to the streets to protest, demanding respect for Chinese culture. It is this event that prompts me to write this passage. And I know the passage maybe not comprehensive due to the limitation of words, but I still sincerely hope that readers can gain something from it, such as its development history, structure, etc. And I hope more people will love Chinese horseface skirt and spread it to the world.

That’s all! Thank you for your careful reading!

==The Rise of ‘China Chic’: A Case Study of Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games==
<center>周晓兰 Zhou Xiaolan,202270081682.</center>
===Abstract===
‘China Chic’ is a term that describes the trend of China-centric design, incorporating unique cultural elements into the latest trends. With the growing popularity of China’s native fashion trends, more young people are paying attention to traditional Chinese culture. And the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games can be seen as a good example of how the world has embraced China Chic. This paper focuses on the rise of China Chic, taking Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games as an example.
===Key Words===
China Chic, Traditional Chinese Culture, Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games
===题目===
“国潮”之崛起：以2022北京冬奥会为例
===摘要===
“国潮”将独特的中国文化元素融入最新潮流，代表着以中国文化为中心的设计趋势。随着中国本土时尚潮流的日益流行，越来越多的年轻人开始关注中国传统文化。而2022北京冬奥会恰如其分地展现了国潮正在融入世界潮流。本文将以2022北京冬奥会为例，探究国潮之崛起。
===关键词===
国潮，中国传统文化，北京冬奥会
===Introduction===
China Chic, or Guochao, is a new type of youth culture with ‘China’ as the core, ‘Chic’ as the expression, ‘culture + technology’ as the driving force, and ‘integration + innovation’ as the main direction of development(Cao Wenfang 2022, 92). And the impact of China Chic has been expanded across various categories, including obvious ones like fashion and cosmetics, and others like architecture, technology, automobiles, and so on. As it develops, China Chic increasingly manifests Chinese people’s ambition of reviving traditional heritage in a modern context and reflecting the profound pride in their national identity (Coco Wu, Harry Kinnear, Maya Madhusoodan, 2020). Incorporating unique cultural elements into the latest trends, Beijing Winter Olympics serves as a good example of the rise of China Chic. China took the chance to introduce its most distinctive cultural elements, through the Games’ logo, mascot, ceremonies and so on. And this paper will introduce the China Chic in the event, through Games’ opening ceremony, mascot, and sports clothing.
===The 24 Solar Terms in the Opening Ceremony===
The 24 solar terms, having been developed throughout Chinese history since about 3,000 years ago and listed on the UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2016, are so important to Chinese people that it appears both creative and natural for Zhang Yimou to employ and showcase them as a unique part of Chinese civilization to the world (Yang Yang, 2022). Hailed as China’s fifth greatest invention, the solar terms developed by ancient Chinese as a calendar to guide agricultural production and reflect some natural phenomena and human life.

The opening ceremony started with a countdown of the 24 solar terms instead of using numbers, delighting the audience, as the first of the 24 solar terms-- “Beginning of Spring” fell on this very day. The countdown of the 24 solar terms shows the unique understanding of Chinese nation towards time. What’s more, Zhang used beautiful poems and proverbs to explain the characteristics of each solar term, while incorporating modern technology to show them in video. Many netizens praised this idea as a show of Chinese Romance. Such combination of traditional culture and modern technology shows the vitality of Chinese culture and the wisdom of Chinese nation.
===Mascot===
Being eyecatchers that help create an Olympic atmosphere, mascots serve to demonstrate the ideas of the host, and the history and culture of the host country (Yin Ziqiang 2022, 10). Bing Dwen Dwen is the panda mascot for Beijing Winter Olympics. Bing means ice in Mandarin, representing purity and strength. Dwen Dwen means sincerity, health, vitality and loveliness, representing the strong body, tenacious will and inspiring spirit of athletes. As a national emblem for China and a significant symbol for foreigners to learn about China, giant pandas are under first-class protection, revealing core Chinese values of harmony between man and nature.

Bing Dwen Dwen wears a full body shell out of ice which connotes both winter sports and China’s space dream. Its head shell is decorated with flowing bright-colored lines symbolizing the track of winter sports and the 5G technology. What’s more, colorful ribbons and the black and white panda present traditional Chinese aesthetic thought of contrast and unity. Bing Dwen Dwen not only captures the profound cultural heritage, but also shows the Olympic spirit and the development of modern technology.

Thanks to its chubby and lovable look, Bing Dwen Dwen has soon become a smash hit around the world. Bing Dwen Dwen souvenirs have been sold out in online stores and customers have to wait in long lines at offline stores to try their luck. As a new online celebrity representing the Winter Olympics, cute and adorable Bing Dwen Dwen was liked and followed by athletes and journalists from around the world who were incredibly enthusiastic about taking photos with the mascot. Bing Dwen Dwen even became a trending Olympic topic on Twitter, building a bridge of communication across national borders and bringing China Chic to the world.
===Sports Clothing===
During Beijing Winter Olympics, Young athletes wore sports clothing bearing Chinese elements, such as dragons, pandas, tigers, the Great Wall, traditional Chinese painting, and Beijing Opera facial makeup, which surprised world audience. Perfectly combining the functionality, nationality and artistry, the sports clothing can realize the free wearing under the change of temperature and scene, which helps to enhance the performance of Team China (Ma Yan, 2021).

It is worth mentioning that the “golden dragon coat” of Eileen Gu, a rising Chinese sports star, spreads China Chic to the world. The “golden dragon coat” was designed by herself to spread Chinese culture, featuring a golden Chinese Dragon on the reverse of the clothing. Dragon is a symbol of China, and descendants of dragon refer to Chinese nation (Yin Sairui 2022, 50). It reveals the spirit of forging ahead. In Chinese culture, gold symbolizes nobility, brilliance and glory. Therefore, the golden dragon coat serves as a brilliant display of Chinese culture. What’s more, incorporating modern fashion trend in its style, this coat is a perfect example of China Chic. Gu’s spectacular performance in the Olympic Games also offers a great opportunity to show China Chic to the world. And this coat is now in the collection of the Olympic Museum in Lausanne, Switzerland. As a result, more and more people start to pay attention to Chinese fashion brands which present rich culture and traditional elements of China through the intuitive of dressing (Zijing Han, Duo Xu, Rujia Zheng, 2022).
===Conclusion===
Beijing Winter Olympics introduces China Chic to the world and show the vitality of Chinese culture. It also demonstrates that Chinese culture is stepping onto the international stage. Therefore, it is necessary for China to take the advantage of China Chic to spread traditional Chinese culture, turning such youth culture into national culture.

==A Brief Introduction of Chinese History of Petting
<center> Zhou Zihao, 202270081702 </center>
===Abstract===
This chapter is on petting in Chinese history. Pets had been considered to be a component of Western lifestyle, and Chinese, maybe due to the notorious reputation for eating dogs, has been long labeled as "a land unfriendly for pets". It was documented that, however, Chinese, especially those in high society, have been keeping pets since anicent times. This paper attempts to give a descriptive view to the petting history of China.

===Introduction===
Chinese were thought not so pet-friendly as Westerners, especially for its notorious dog-eating, and petting is indeed never considered by people home or abroad as a long-prevailing habit of Chinese. In fact, even nowadays petting in China cannot be described as anything related to “popular”. According to 2021 Chinese Pet Industry White Paper, the number of dog-and-cat owners totalled to 68.44 million in 2021 and was expected to increase to 71.68 million which took up only 5.12% of China’s total population. Other “non-traditional” pets, say, birds, other small mammals, reptiles are even rarer to public sight. Even though pet-owner are still a small proportion in China, petting is surely gaining more and more attention publicly and politically.
===Historical Overview of Chinese Petting===
Petting hasn’t been a popular thing since ancient times. For an agricultural country like China, “unpragmatic” animals like dogs and cats used to be quite uncommon because they were not beneficial for farming (Custer, 2021). Nevertheless, there were a few famous pet-lovers documented for their adoration for certain animals. In Pre-Qin periods, the emperor Yi of Wei loved raising cranes. The elegant and purely-white bird was terribly doted on by the emperor Yi who even ranked them with their appearances and qualities and “remunerated” them in accordance with their given “official positions” (Zuo, 2007). Zang Wenzhong, a contemporary of Yi, was obsessed with another unusual animal¬¬—turtles. Like Yi the emperor, Zang cosseted his pets by accommodating the turtles in luxury palaces and that solicited commotion leading to his own doomed end. Interestingly their pampery was harshly chastised by Confucius as a breach of ethical conventions. At that time petting had been exclusive for upper classes with wealth and power who despite the stereotypes of abusing animals pampered their pets with obscene extravagancy. During the Tang Dynasty (AC 618¬¬¬—AC 907) the royal members started raising exotic animals tributed by foreigners as their pets such as elephants, lions, and rhinos in the palace. At the same time petting was gaining popularity among public, and it was presented by the paintings that some people from middle and lower classes had small-sized pets like chicken, dogs, and cats. Animals were no longer merely food resources and pets were more than a time killer but an emotional support and religious and spiritual symbol as well (Li, 2017). Literati would also rest their hopes and sentiments on certain animals in poems. With an increasing demand in petting, a pet-friendly system was also built to condemn the animal-abusers and to compromise who thus lost their pets. In the Ming Dynasty (AC 1368¬¬—AC 1644), Wen Zhenheng recorded then elegant lifestyle of upper literati in his book Zhang Wu Zhi and described their choices of pets in one chapter. In the book Wen deemed pets as “a necessary art for those who live in solitude amongst the hills and woods” (Wen, 2015). By “necessary”, however, Wen meant it for upper class still since the book was written for them. In the Qing Dynasty (AC 1636¬—AC 1912), Man people brought with them nomadic culture and horses and birds were the majority of their choices of pets (She, 2019). In late Qing Dynasty people carrying a bird cage were common to be seen in the teahouses in Beijing as the symbol of their social statue. During the Cultural Revolution in 1960s and 1970s, pets were regarded as the component of the lifestyle of capitalism and therefore strictly forbidden. Pet owners have no choice but to hide, abandon, and even kill their pets. It was surely the most terrible era for pets and their owners. Nowadays in the 21th Century more and more Chinese have pets. Research showed that the pet market in China has increased 60% every year (Pitt, 2021). Analysts also expected that China’s pet industry will multiply 10 times that of a decade ago to 66 billion dollars. Even though petting system in China is still immature and still some people regard pet as emotionless animals, a more convenient society is being built for animal-lovers. Moreover, pets can get new jobs in cat-or-dog café and even make an income on social media. People’s attitude towards pets also changed a lot. Take dogs as example. Chinese used to treat dog as a source of meat. However, today the majority of dogs are viewed as companions and usually treated as family members (Coren, 2018).
===Conclusion===
In conclusion, pets were rare in ancient China, and most people who had pets were those in higher classes. Their pets were uncommon and exotic animals such as birds and fishes instead of dogs and cats. It is since the Tang Dynasty that people from lower classes started to have small animals as pets. However, in ancient times pets gained little popularity in general. In modern times with the increase of middle class and the influence of western culture, people’s attitude towards pets changed and dogs and cats are more accepted by public. Even though China has not been the most pet-friendly country, a mature petting system is now being built.

==Opera:Lv opera(of Shandong Province)==
<center>庄昊康Zhuang Haokang, 202270081713</center>
===Abstract===
Lv Opera, also known as Yangqin and Qinxi Opera, is a national intangible cultural heritage, one of the eight major operas in China, and the most representative local opera in Shandong Province. It is popular in most parts of Shandong Province and parts of Jiangsu, Anhui and Northeast China. It originated in the Yellow River Delta in northern Shandong Province and evolved from Shandong Qinshu. Its music belongs to Banqiang, and it also sings Qupai. The main accompaniment instruments are Zhuiqin (the main string), Yangqin, Sanxian and Pipa, which are called "the four major pieces of Lv Opera".It is deeply loved by the broad masses of the people with its simple and vivid language, beautiful and pleasant singing voice.

===Key Words===
Lv Opera;Cultural Heritage;Opera;Music Forms;Performing Arts

===Introduction===
Lv Opera originated in the Yellow River Delta, where the Yan and Zhao cultures, the Sanjin culture and the recent Beijing and Tianjin cultures have merged, making this area a long and colorful history of folk art. Among these arts, "Shuo Shu" is especially popular among the masses, and the storytellers use the local language familiar to the masses to interpret stories that express the emotional life and social patterns of the Qilu people. Huimin County," there is mentioned: "rap music in the lower reaches of the Yellow River in this area is quite prosperous, more than fifty miles southwest of Binzhou not far from the Yellow River there is a Huji village (belonging to Huimin County), where every year to hold a 'book meeting' to Huji as a gathering place, hiring rap artists from around the world to come to sing ". According to local elders, the "Huji Book Fair" was traced back to the Yuan Dynasty, and was even more prosperous in the early Qing Dynasty, and is still an annual event in Huimin. It can be inferred that this "book fair" provided the conditions for the introduction of the qinshu panel style, which also laid the main position of Shandong qinshu in the cultural activities of the Yellow River Delta at that time, and the predecessor of Lv opera sprouted in such an environment.

In terms of the distribution of Lv opera in Shandong Province, the Qinshu is divided into the east, the south and the north to spread. The various documentary sources can be summarized that it was not until around 1913 that Guangrao and Boxing completed the establishment of the board cadence and the mode of make-up performance respectively, which marked the basic formation of the prototype of Lv opera.

The germination of Lv opera is the fruit of the geographical environment, folk customs and folk art traditions of the Yellow River Delta region, and is the crystallization of the wisdom of the working people of Guangrao and Boxing. Lv opera emerged here, flourished here and developed from here, precisely because of the performance form of South Road Qinshu as the foundation, plus the later development and consolidation of East Road and North Road Qinshu, which facilitated the process of the birth of Lv opera.

Because of the connection between Lv opera and Shandong Qinshu, the repertoire of early Lv opera was mostly adapted from Shandong Qinshu, and some of the repertoire was transplanted from other genres. This type of repertoire was mainly based on folklore, and was created orally by the artists of the time according to the local customs and customs. After the test of time, scholars now classify this category of repertoire as "traditional repertoire". After the establishment of New China, according to the national policy of that time, Lv opera also created some new plays in response to the current trend, which are called "modern plays". Lv opera is still being developed, and the plays with historical themes that appear on the stage today are born out of the increasing aesthetic demand of the audience and the national policy of melody. The repertoire of Shandong Lv opera can be divided into three categories: "traditional plays", "modern plays" and "new historical plays".

The singing method of Lv opera is the same for both male and female cavities, but the male cavity is mainly sung in real voice, while the female cavity is sung in a combination of real and falsetto voice, and is five degrees higher than the male cavity. Since Lv opera originated from the art of rapping, there is no distinction between "singing" and "reading" in the performance.

When singing, Lv opera focuses on setting up the cadence with words, bringing the voice with emotion, singing with singing, spitting out words clearly, speaking naturally, and sounding natural and smooth. Compared with the high and aggressive Qin cadence and the soft and distant Kunqu, the singing voice of Lv opera is more lyrical and lingering. It is often used for the glissando, trill and ornamentation, and it is important for the words to be correct. The combination of soft tone, trill, beating tone and overtone of the falling qin makes the whole singing stretching and beautiful. Shandong Lv opera has absorbed the artistic components of the clapper cavity, so it is also based on the board cavity, and its singing voice can be roughly divided into two categories: "Siping cavity" and "two boards".

Lv opera is mostly about small matters between parents and neighbors, so it is rare to see actors doing fighting on the stage of Lv opera, and the plays with more action are only exaggerated renditions of real-life actions. It was only after a large number of new historical dramas were created that more and more martial arts plays were seen on the stage of Lv opera. "Doing" and "fighting" are usually combined with each other in opera performances. The female roles require a higher level of "doing", such as "lying fish", which requires the actor to be skilled in terms of flexibility, balance and waist and leg strength.

After a hundred years of development, Lv Opera has been included in the list of intangible cultural heritage of China and is one of the eight major local operas in China, which can be said to be a small achievement. However, as an important member of Chinese traditional culture, it inevitably encounters various obstacles in the process of development. In order to pass on Lv opera better, it is inevitable that reasonable and effective countermeasures should be formulated in conjunction with the characteristics of the times.

===Conclusion===
The current situation of Lv Opera in Shandong province is not optimistic.Many professional Lv Opera troupes have been gradually renamed or merged,or even completely disappeared.The inheritance of Lv Opera has become increasingly difficult. The younger generation,who genuinely love Lv Opera and perform it,are also less and less.The audience is aging.Based on these conditions,it is not only necessary to carry out the task of promoting traditional culture to individuals,but also requires the government to increase its investment in culture and art, and introduce more effective policies.

==Chinese Culture and A Child’s Education==

<center> Wellsand, Benjamin, 202111080018 </center>

===Abstract===

The social conditions of China have never been more taxing when it comes to a decades-long engrained child education culture and a problematic rapidly aging population. The social constructs of the longstanding loyalty to kinship and interdependence of collectivism within China place a cyclical concern from parent to child as one looks out for the other to ensure a fruitful economic future. The 1950s one-child policy has not only served to slow birth rates but has inadvertently allowed for a significant amount of finances to be set aside for the future of an only child to ensure the desired monetary success. The Chinese Communist Party has recognized the challenges the future of the country faces as a result of past policies and is seeking to revolutionize the education culture in order to permit Chinese families to grow without fear of missing out on a profitable and fulfilling future for the entire family unit. The modern-day CCP and the ancient philosopher, Confucius, align in their understanding of the vital role that the family plays in the future health of Chinese society.

===Key Words===

Collective Culture; Filial Piety; Kinship Culture; Private Education; Standardized Testing

===Introduction===

In Chinese culture, the family name is displayed prominently before the individual’s given name as a clear indicator of the honor given to the family unit and the collective nature by which the individual is viewed within foundational societal institutions. China is a culture that is overtly centered on kinship. “Male offspring were especially valued for their role in carrying on the family name, explains Li Liu of Beijing Normal University, “without a male heir, a family line originating from its ancestors is terminated, and the family’s place in the universe gets lost forever.” (2007: 57) China is world-renown for having the largest population. Beginning in the 1950s, the population grew on a steep trajectory from 540 million to 940 million by 1976. The booming industrialization caused concern of famine and housing shortages as more people were expected to start searching for higher-paying urban jobs as opposed to working on farms. In response to these concerns, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) started limiting births provincially in 1979 and finally standardized the one-child policy in 1980 which limited ethnic Chinese to only one child per couple. The fertility rate dropped from 6.1 in 1990 to 1.16 in 2021. (Master & Zhang 2022)

It is the cultural importance placed upon a male heir to carry on the family name that explains the resulting current skewed sex ratio. (Statista 2021) Charles Kraft shares, “Family and relatives are the big things to [kinship cultures]. Those with family are wealthy (whether or not they have any money).” (1996: 121) Great financial responsibility is placed upon a son’s family who is seeking to find a wife for him. 房子 (house), 车子 (car), and 票子 (money) are viewed as the requirements that should be met in order for a daughter to agree to take a man as her husband. While housing prices have steadied (Aljazeera 2022), the job market continues to be a challenge do to an economic slow from the COVID-19 pandemic. (Bloomberg News 2022)

There is an inordinate amount of competition in children’s education that accompanies these high social demands. Laurie Chen (2018) reports that more than sixty percent of primary school children (up to seventy percent in larger cities) were tutored outside of the classroom and parents paid an average of 120,000 RMB on up to 300,000 RMB for extracurricular education. The 双一流 (double first-class initiative) higher education ranking leaves limited space for academic success. Zhang Duanhong (2019), writes of “the ‘exhausting high school, carefree university’ paradigm, in which university life is treated as a reward for making it through the rigors of the country’s college entrance exam.” The 90 percent graduation rate further limits the space available in universities and increased entry competition. The highly competitive nature in higher education has conditioned both sexes to pursue the greatest quality of education and the highest paid positions obtainable. Students must place their entire life on hold and focus all attention on study.

To ease the high societal demands of childrearing and encourage population growth, the CCP has made significant policy changes in areas such as private education (Koty 2021), maternity leave (Huang & Huang 2021), afterschool childcare (Zhang 2021), along with child subsidies (Ma 2022). Yet it remains an uphill battle to change the social conditioning of a country built around a single-child family. The 鸡娃 (chicken baby) parenting mentality continues on despite best efforts to curb this longstanding trend. (Feng 2021) Private education has not disappeared but has simply undergone a transformation as is the case with English tutors turned online product salespeople. (Jia 2022) Private education companies are believed to shift as well from educators to a rebranding as providers of AI products, software, and services for public education institutions. (Knox 2021)

The philosopher, Confucius, upon whose teaching pillars Chinese society is built, was a strong advocate of the family. He recognized human flourishing occurring within five complex relationships and three of these are familial: father/son, elder/younger brother, and husband/wife. Confucius felt that it was “in the context of the family that we acquire the building blocks for navigating the wildly complex relational networks that comprise human society.” (Ten Elshof, 2015: 14) Filial piety is no surprise in the face of a culture that centers on the family. Liu explains, “Filial piety is more than just showing filial obedience to parents: most importantly, it indicates raising sons to support aging parents and having sons to continue the family line.” (2007: 56) This too is a practice that finds support within Confucianism as a “value that calls on adult children to fulfill obligations to respect, obey, support, and care for elderly parents.” (Shea, Moore, & Zhang, 2020: 29) 养儿防老 (to bring up children for the purpose of being looked after in old age) is the Chinese parental motto that shows the expectations placed upon the children to care for their aging parents. Caring for the aged will only increase in difficulty as the average age of Chinese citizens rises. (Campbell 2019) Further exacerbating the age demographic phenomena is that this comes on the heels of the one-child policy that leaves two sets of aging parents on the shoulders of one married couple. Tang Youcai and Jeanne Shea discovered that those coming from rural areas “have both higher proportions of elderly folks and lower levels of economic development.” (2020: 92)

===Conclusion===

A collective, kinship country that is culturally conditioned to associate the wellbeing and preservation of the family with social and economic success finds itself in the face of a challenging future. The CCP is working tirelessly to show it supports and recognizes the need for the Chinese family, only that it has one major issue with it: its size. The battle for the family that started in Confucius’s day continues in the present. The academic atmosphere that crescendos at standardized testing (Li 2019) and a highly competitive job market that leaves even college graduates in a tight spot (Pike 2022) places the child’s education at front and center in the battle for social survival. The weight of the future of China predictably rests, from a cultural perspective, on the shoulders of the family unit.

===Introduction===
Pepper was introduced into China from America at the end of the Ming Dynasty, but at first it was only used as ornamental crops and medicines. In the early Qing Dynasty, Guizhou and its neighboring areas were the first to eat chili. In Guizhou, where salt was scarce, during the reign of Emperor Kangxi (1662-1722), "soil seedlings were used to replace salt". Pepper played a role in replacing salt, which shows that it is closely related to life. From the Qianlong period (1736-1795), a large number of hot peppers were eaten in Guizhou. During the reign of Qianlong, Zhenxiong, Yunnan, which was adjacent to Guizhou, and Chenzhou Prefecture, Hunan, in the east of Guizhou, also began to eat chili. After Jiaqing (1796-1820), pepper was widely planted in Guizhou, Hunan, Sichuan and Jiangxi provinces. It was recorded in Jiaqing that Jiangxi, Hunan, Guizhou and Sichuan had begun to "grow as vegetables".

During Daoguang's reign (1821-1850), the northern part of Guizhou was already in a situation of"every meal must be filled with peppers". The rice wrapped in grain was popular in Tongzhi. The dish used mostly bean curd, that is, water soaked salt and sea pepper, which was used to dip in water, a little like the sea pepper dip in Sichuan Fushun bean curd today.

In some areas of Hunan, hot pepper was not very common during the Jiaqing period, but it was more common among Daoguang, Xianfeng, Tongzhi and Guangxu. According to the Qing barnyard banknotes in the late Qing Dynasty, "people in Yunnan, Guizhou, Hunan and Sichuan loved spicy food", "people in Hunan and Hubei liked spicy food", and "people in Hunan and Hubei could not eat spicy food without pepper and mustard, so there was plenty of soup", indicating that people in Hunan and Hubei had become accustomed to spicy food in the late Qing Dynasty, and they even put pepper into soup.

The record of edible pepper in Sichuan was later than Hubei’s. Neither in the book of Yongzheng's Sichuan Tongzhi nor Jiaqing's Sichuan Tongzhi recorded the cultivation and eating of pepper, and the earliest recorded pepper may be in Jiaqing. From the perspective of the areas where pepper was planted and eaten in Jiaqing, Sichuan, they are mainly located in the Chengdu Plain and the Daba Mountains area in the south and southwest of Sichuan and the borders of Sichuan, Hubei and Shaanxi. After Daoguang, Xianfeng and Tongzhi, Sichuan's edible chilies began to become popular, and even chilies were "planted all over the mountains" in Sichuan. After Guangxu, Sichuan's edible chili was more common. In addition to being widely eaten, there were a lot of records of eating chili in the classic recipes. According to Fu Chongju's Chengdu Overview in the late Qing Dynasty, there were 1328 kinds of dishes in Chengdu at that time. Pepper has become one of the main condiments in Sichuan cuisine, including hot oil sea pepper, sea pepper noodles, etc., especially the double cooked pork in Sichuan cuisine was officially recorded in written records. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, eating pepper has become an important feature of Sichuan people's diet. Xu Xinyu's Records of Traveling in Sichuan recorded that "Sichuan people must choose the most spicy ones to eat, and every meal and dish must be hot."

When did Yunnan begin to eat spicy food? Zhenxiong, Yunnan, which is close to Guizhou, ate hot pepper during the Qianlong Period, but it was not very common in Yunnan during the Qianjia Period. There was no record of chilli in the Tongzhi of Yunnan during the Guangxu period, but people began to eat chilli in large quantities as early as the Guangxu period. According to the Records of Visiting Sichuan by Xu Xinyu in the late Qing Dynasty, his father found in Ya'an that the chili peppers transported into Yunnan every year through Ya'an, Sichuan, were "quantity is nearly hundreds of thousands. The amount of chili peppers eaten by Yunnan people is not less than that of Sichuan people". Therefore, Xu Ke's Qing barnyard banknote at the end of the Qing Dynasty said: "Yunnan, Guizhou, Hunan and Sichuan people are fond of spicy food." According to the records in the Textual Research on the Names and Facts of Plants, edible chili peppers had been planted in Jiangxi during the Jiaqing period. During the Guangxu period, edible chili peppers had become more common in Jiangxi, and now Jiangxi Nankang chili sauce is very famous.

Pepper has been introduced into China for about 400 years, but this foreign spice soon became popular all over China, taking the position of traditional Chinese prickly ash, ginger and cornus officinalis. The consumption of Chinese prickly ash was squeezed into Sichuan Basin, the hometown of Chinese prickly ash. Cornus officinalis almost completely withdrew from the stage of Chinese food spice, and the position of ginger was largely withdrawn from the diet. The introduction of chili into Chinese food is undoubtedly a food revolution. The powerful chili makes it impossible for any traditional spice to compete with it. The revolution was only a little slow due to the constraints of traffic and information at that time.

What about court dishes?
one book records the dishes used to celebrate the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month, including "Spicy Rabbit". However, there was no detailed description of what kind of dish it was. In the following Qing Dynasty, a dish named "Spicy Rabbit Silk" also appeared in Tioding Collection. Shredded chicken soup simmer, add yellow rice wine, soy sauce, onion, ginger juice, Chinese prickly ash, and soybean powder to finish the soup.

No pepper is used, but pepper is added, so the name of the dish has the word "spicy". It should have the same taste as the "spicy" in the "spicy live rabbit" in the "Records of Drinking". There are two kinds of flavors without chilli. As for whether rabbit meat is used, why the dish is called "Spicy Rabbit" is an unsolved mystery. In the Records of Drinking, dozens of famous dishes in the imperial court are listed. In addition to the aforementioned "Spicy Rabbit", there is also a dish called "Spicy Soup", which is a soup to drink every morning to prevent cold in November. Nowadays, ginger soup is often drunk to prevent cold. The "hot soup" here may be of the same type. As for other places where pepper is used, none of them has been found.

===Conclusion===
Even in the Qing Dynasty, pepper still did not enter the court. The Manchu people did not even have the habit of eating mustard seeds. "A Dream of Red Mansions" describes the dishes made of vinegar, as well as various other cooking methods, but hot dishes never appeared.

===Introduction===
In the 5,000 years of Chinese culture, music has slowly flowed with the history to modern times. Whenever you hear an ancient rhythm, it is like going back in time to the days of small bridges and flowing water and talented people. This is our own Chinese beauty. The Rites of Zhou states that ancient Chinese musical instruments can be divided into the "eight tones" - gold, stone, earth, leather, silk, wood, lagen and bamboo. The chime is a representative of "gold", and is also known as a "national treasure"! Emerging from a time of turmoil, it has been passed down for thousands of years.
The chime is an ancient traditional percussion instrument made of bronze, with a combination of flat round bells of different sizes, each with a different pitch. In two dimensions, the chimes are narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, with uneven edges around the mouth. Most of the chimes are beautifully carved and decorated, or lined with elaborate drums, which are known as bell-nipples.

First appearing in the Shang dynasty, the chime was born in the midst of chaos and was popularised in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States, where it remained in use until the Ming and Qing dynasties. It can be said to have emerged from the chaotic times and to have been handed down for thousands of years. The early chimes were mostly made up of three or five pieces, and could play simple old tunes.

The chimes of the Ming and Qing dynasties were completely different from the traditional chimes, not only in form but also in tone, and by this time the music of the chimes had long since lost the majesty and coolness of the chimes. Chimes were generally used for courtly music, and in the early days, they were used for major occasions such as conquests, banquets and rituals, so that in ancient times they were also a symbol of status and power, and only the ruler had the right to use them. In the Poetic Edda, there is a phrase that refers to the chimes: "I use the chimes and drums of music to please my fair lady", and they were also used in large banquets and dances.

Most of the chimes from the Western Zhou period are oval in shape with a narrow top and a wide bottom, and a large number of performance scores were recorded on the bodies of the chimes, the ultimate purpose of which was to facilitate rehearsal and performance, and which accidentally became the carrier of chime culture. From the Qin dynasty onwards the chimes gradually pursued aesthetic appearance, neglecting the effect of the sound itself, and the Qing dynasty's lack of attention to ritual and music led to the gradual loss of many of the finest bronze chime casting techniques. During the Han dynasty, chimes fell into decline, and although they were still a symbol of the status of the emperor, they were far removed from the chimes of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, and were even inferior to those of the pre-Qin period in terms of silencing. After more than 500 years at its peak, the chimes still went into decline.

From the Song dynasty onwards, foreign musical instruments flowed in and other traditional instruments emerged, gradually eliminating chimes from court performance, and by the Qing dynasty they were shaped into mere decorative objects that could not be played. The art of bell casting was lost from the Song dynasty, but when the Zeng Houyi Chimes were unearthed, the Chinese Cultural Affairs Bureau set up the Zeng Houyi Chimes Reproduction Research Group, which succeeded in reproducing a full set of Zeng Houyi Chimes in 1984, and the technology of bell casting came back to light.The recovery of the chime casting technique has led to an increasing focus on the preservation and promotion of traditional culture.

Mr. Robert, husband of the famous female singer Ms. Gong Linna, first saw a replica of the Zeng Houyi Chimes in 2005 and heard the sound of the chimes live, the teacher was instantly blown away, after which he became addicted to chime music and couldn't help himself, wanting to successfully put chime music symbols in modern society, creating "Mountain Ghost" in 2007, and in 2009, with the help of the Hong Kong Orchestra and the National Orchestra Together, they created "Bell Music and Harmony". In 2018, Ms. Gong Linna and Robert used chimes to perfectly interpret Qu Yuan's "Li Sao" on the programme "Classics Flow", allowing the ancient sound that had been dormant for thousands of years to appear on modern television programmes and allowing audiences across the country to appreciate the charm of chimes.

At the Shanghai World Expo the chimes were the face of modern music, and Professor Kong Fan from the University of Science and Technology of China brought his research team to the Shanghai Expo to combine the chimes with modern technology to create a magnetic levitation chime that was a breath of fresh air. With a strong magnet made of rare earth roundness in each chime, which determines the levitating position of the bronze chimes through high speed detection thousands of times per second, this group of magnetically levitated chimes has once again amazed the world.

===Conclusion===
The sound of chimes, which has been flowing in history for 2,500 years, has finally reappeared through modern technology, presenting us with a visual feast. Among the four ancient civilisations, Chinese culture is the most completely preserved, adapting and surviving in modern times to the last, all of which, apart from the research led by scientists, is inseparable from the many, many heirs and lovers of traditional culture. In this age of colourfulness and diversity, traditional culture deserves its place too!

In The Radio and Television Dictionary, live streaming refers to the post-synthesis and broadcast of radio programs at the same time, and live television broadcast is the broadcast method of producing and broadcasting television programs simultaneously with the occurrence and development process of events.” It can be seen that live streaming firstly appeared on traditional media radio and television stations.
On January 1, 2008, the General Office of the State Council put forward a notice proposing to promote the integration of the Three Networks (telecommunication network, computer network and cable TV network). Until today, the integration of the three networks has experienced twelve years of development. Under the background of the continuous progress of interconnection technology, cell phone has been transformed from a simple communication tool to a multifunctional device integrating communication, TV watching and the internet access. With the increasing number of cell phones, the number of cell phone users also continues to go high, providing support for the development of cell phone live steaming. Taking advantage of a large number of live streaming platforms, the connotation of network live streaming also transformed from the early program broadcast into the broadcast of life scenes that the general public can participate in, which is a leap forward.
===Categories of Living Streaming===
(1)According to the main body of live streaming, it can be divided into star live streaming, net celebrity live streaming and common people live streaming. Star live is held by actors, athletes and other celebrities with a certain degree of fame and attention in the mass media, the audience of star live is mainly fans. The purpose of star live is often to let fans see the daily life of the stars to close the distance. Net celebrity live is held by the network celebrities who have become popular in micro blogging, short video platform or other social platforms, and some of them are professional anchors. As opposed to stars and net celebrities, the rest of the ordinary anchors who do not have great influence and attention are collectively referred to as common people live.
(2)According to the live content, live streaming can be generally divided into four categories: live show, live game, live pan-life broadcast and live streaming sale. Show live is the earliest type of live streaming, and it requires the anchors to show their talents. Game live is about electronic games, and most of them are competitive games and it has a certain threshold for both parties - the game anchor is generally required to be proficient or at least familiar with the game being broadcast; the audience is at least aware of the game, otherwise they cannot participate well in the live viewing. Pan-life live streaming refers to the live streaming that shows daily life, where the anchor simply sings, casually chats, eats and shows their daily life. It is live and casual and with no rehearsal, and anyone with a device can become an anchor by registering an account. As the fastest growing type of live streaming since 2016, pan-life live streaming is leading the wave of live streaming with a “mobile live for all” approach. Live streaming sale is an emerging commercial activity which aims to sale goods, and it is all about introduction and exhibition of products.
===Patterns of Interaction in Live Streaming===
(1)Get connected: anchor to anchor interaction
This is a way of interaction between two anchors to achieve a more interesting live broadcast and share fans through a common broadcasting room. It is to connect the live rooms of two hosts, and the way to get connected is that the host can choose to connect with a host they are familiar with or be randomly matched by the system. For viewers, they can see both hosts on the same live screen at the same time. The anchors will chat, sing, play games and so on to make the live streaming more interesting, and at the same time the anchor will also recommend their own fans to pay attention to the other anchor. The fans watching the live broadcast do not have the loyalty between traditional idols and fans, so the anchors can achieve the purpose of sharing fans and maximizing benefits.
(2)Pop-ups and gifts: fan-anchor interaction
The explosive growth of User Generated Content (UGC) attracts large-scale internet users to join the content interaction, and “gifts and pop-ups” constitute the basic ecology of live streaming culture. Pop-ups gives fans an opportunity to express their emotions, and gifts is another important way for fans to interact with anchors, which first existed in original literature websites, and then was introduced as an innovative payment function by self-media and gradually introduced by major platforms.
(3)Melt media interaction: the establishment of cross-platform fan group
Senior anchors do not limit themselves to interacting with their fans briefly on the live platform, but will establish WeChat or QQ fan groups to achieve cross-platform interaction. The establishment of fan groups can make the interaction between fans and anchors more intimate. The fan groups of popular anchors have certain requirements in terms of access qualifications, such as the amount of bounty, frequency of interaction, etc., and anchors will also use fan groups to give back to their fans, such as more interaction, red packets or other benefits.
===Conclusion===
On the one hand, live streaming has brought many beneficial effects to people’s lives. People have a new way to learn and express themselves. And also its platform advantages can make it a disseminator of excellent culture and promote people towards cultural confidence and cultural self-awareness.
On the other hand, the trend of network live entertainment is obvious, and overly entertaining and vulgarized content is popping up, which to some extent hinders the spread and popularization of socialist core values. Therefore, restrictions should be taken to standardize live streaming.

===Introduction===
I. Origin and Development of Imagery in Chinese Classical Poems

Imagery is the soul and the core of the Chinese classical poetry. Based on the actual experiences and feelings, imagery exceeds the simple physical image, and it’s a reflection of the poet's imagination and divergence thinking. In Chinese literary tradition, the expression “Yi Xiang”(意象) has existed since ancient times, and it “has long been a concern of Chinese poetry from its very beginning.” (Pauline Yu 1987,3) It’s used to “denote a verbal expression that evokes a mental picture or recalls a physical sensation, not necessarily visual” (James Y. Liu 1962,101) Actually, the imagery and its theoretical system have undergone three upgrades, and then gradually developed into the one we’re familiar with, i.e. the objective things in poetry fusing the poet's subjective feelings and aspirations.

The first theoretical promotion occurred in the Pre-Qin times, based on Zhuangzi’s “words don’t exhaust meaning” and “The Sages established the images to give fullness of the concepts in their minds” in Commentaries on the Book of Changes (Stephen Owen 1992,31). In Wei and Jin Dynasties, the second promotion was marked by Wang Bi’s further illustration on the triadic structure of “the concept in mind”(意), “images”(象) and “words”(言) in his book Elucidation of the Images(《明象》), which indicates that words exists for images, and images for the concept in mind. It was Liu Xie in Han Dynasty who exactly introduced image into literary and endowed it with aesthetic connotation, which signals the third theoretical promotion. In his book Carving a Dragon with a Literary Mind, Liu stated “a uniquely discerning carpenter wield his axe with his eye to the concept-image”.

II. Interpretation of Typical Imageries

1. Botanical Imagery

1) Willow
Willow is always employed to express sentiment attached to parting. In Han Dynasty, there formed the custom of “breaking off a willow branch for leave-taking”. The pronunciation of “柳” in Chinese is similar with “留”, which means “(want someone) to stay”, endowing the willow with sensibilities of missing someone or the sadness of departure.

2) Wutong trees
Wutong, also known as plane or Chinese parasol, is closely associated with autumn and a melancholy mood. Wutong usually conveys a sense of grief and desolation. And the half dead wutong can be compared to the middle-aged widower or widow.

3) Chrysanthemum
Blooming in autumn, the Chrysanthemum often symbolizes loftiness, constancy, integrity and nobility of a character as well as a secluded life, especially in Tao Yuanming’s poems.
By the way, some botanical imageries, such as bamboo, pine trees and plum-blossom, share similar symbolic meaning to some extent.

2. Animal Imagery

1) Cuckoo

Cuckoo, also named “子规” or “子鹃” in Chinese, is associated with farewell because its call sounds like the pronunciation of “不如归去”(bùrúguīqù), which means “It’s better to return.” Wandering travelers far away from hometown will be touched when hearing such sounds, which evoke their distress and homesickness. Moreover, when departing with friends or relatives, people are always sorrowful, hoping they can soon return.

2) Crane
For one thing, the natural image of the crane, full of vitality and soaring in the sky, often embodies the poet’s yearning for a free and secluded life. For another, the crane symbolizes longevity and mourning, showing poet’s life-worrying consciousness. Additionally, as an important cultural icon of Taoism, the crane is associate with immortality, which reflects the holiness of Taoism and the religious ideal of pursuing the freedom and the eternity.

3) Swallow
Swallows are migratory birds whose return heralds the coming of spring. Therefore, swallow imagery, firstly, is to render the poet's appreciation of the pleasant spring. Besides, swallows often appear in pairs in people’s houses or under the eaves, hence two swallows embody an enviable love or love-sickness. Finally, in some poems, the swallow represents the poet’s indignation about vicissitudes of the past as well as the country’s subjugation and destruction.

3. Inanimate Imagery

1) Moon
The moon, with various appellations in Chinese, such as “玉弓”, “银盘”, “婵娟”, etc., is one of the most commonly-used imageries in Chinese poetry. It implicates the general Chinese national mentality and denotes the obscured illusions of the Chinese spiritual homestead. The moon implies homesickness, especially when it is full, which symbolizes a perfect home life or a happy union. On the contrary, a waning moon indicates destitution or separation. Even today, those who are far from home would feel homesick and forlorn at the sight of the moon, just like the writer of “Still Night Thought”.

2) River
In China, the Yangtze River and the Yellow River are two main rivers, which originates from the southwest of China hence flowing eastward. So the imagery of river appears always accompanied with words “flowing eastward”. Sometimes poets use it as a metaphor for a moral, hermetic life, obstruction or time. Also, it’s a symbol of separation with sadness, because in ancient China poets usually send their friends or families off by the riverside.

3) East wind and west wind
Due to geographical factors, “east wind” in China, as a sign of spring, brings warmth and speeds the greening of plants and spurs love. Conversely, “west wind” in China symbolizes chilly coldness in winter, which is connected with something bleak and desolate.

===Conclusion===
There’re three major theoretical upgrades before the imagery theory we understand today gradually formed. Due to its rich connotations, profound philosophy and unique spirit, the proper comprehension of imagery is the key to appreciate and experience the charm of poetry. Moreover, the study of imagery is of great significance to the study of Chinese classical literature as well as the inheritance of Chinese traditional culture.

===Introduction===
The Chinese people consider tigers as power, luck, righteousness, valour and vigour in their country, so they use anything about tiger to avoid disasters. From the ancient China, “tiger culture” has begun to spread.
At the beginning, tiger culture was originated from totems. During Yin and Zhou Dynasty, our ancestors engraved tiger patterns on bronze wares; In the military dimensions, the emperors used Military Tiger Talisman(虎符) to move their military troops, and it also means the sovereign power of the ruling class; The ancient people also engraved tiger patterns on eaves and used those eaves to build houses, which means their houses peaceful and auspicious; During Chinese New Year, the Chinese people not only paste “Door God” on their doors, but also paste pictures of a tiger. In folk, Chinese parents make tiger head shoes for their children, because “The folk believes that ‘dog doesn’t eat dog’(虎毒不食子). For the safety and healthy growth of children, people make tiger-faced shoes and hats to knock on luck, drive away evil and avoids evil.” (Liu Jia, 2010, 201) Therefore, tiger-faced shoes play the role in Chinese culture: to bring luck and auspiciousness, to prevent disasters from children, and to make a hope that children could grow up healthily and happily.
===Origin===
The origin of tiger-faced shoes, or Hutou Xie, can date back to the Stone Age.There are a lot of fairy tales about tiger-faced shoes. According to Quan Yue(2022, 148-151), once upon a time, a young boatman whose surname is Shi lived on the bank of the Yellow River, and he helped the local residents cross the river every day. One day, an old lady in a hurry to cross the river to ask a midwife to give a birth to her daughter-in-law’s child. However, Unexpectedly that the old lady was dizzy when her was on the boat, so the young boatman had to help the old woman to ask a midwife alone. Then the second day, on the birth of her grandson, the old lady sent a painting to the young boatman as a present for his kindness.
In that painting, there was a beautiful girl. And the next day, the beautiful girl became a real girl standing in front of the boatman, and then, they got married. Several years later, a local official wanted to rob of the beauty, so the girl ran into the picture again. Then the official roared to the picture: “if you do not out, I will break you into pieces!” The girl was extremely afraid.
While at the boatman’s home, the old lady made a pair of red shoes which shaped like a tiger’s head to the boatman’s son, and said: “Putting on the pair of red shoes to save you mom!.” After that, the little boy ran to save his mom, and when he came in the official’s home, he was angry and suddenly, his shoes became a fierce tiger! The tiger ate the official in one bite, and finally, the boy saved his mom. The family reunited happily. This is one of the origin of tiger head shoes.
===Design===
In most areas of China, the main colors of tiger-faced shoes are red and yellow. While tailors sew the mouth, nose and eyes of the tiger with thick threads. “When making tiger-faced shoes, some people like decorating tigers’ eyes and ears with rabbit fur. With three colors of red, yellow and white, the tiger-faced shoes look vivid.”(Xu Xiren, 2017, 144) At the same time, different people use different colors to decorate the shoes. For example, the Han people often use yellow cloth to decorate tiger head shoes, while the Yi people like using white cloth.
As to the appearance of tiger-faced shoes, in general, the appearance of a pair of tiger-faced shoes is tiger-liked pattern, on which has eyes, mouth, nose and beard. While in different places, tiger patterns on shoes have slight differences, for example, “In north China, the design of tiger head is more exaggerated and more rugged, while in abundant Jiangnan, the design is more delicate.”(Wang Chenlin, 2019, 69) Chen Hui also described that in Henan province, tiger head shoes have rough shape and strong local flavor; in Shandong province, the head of shoes is more prone to be like cat head, lion head or dragon head.(Chen Hui, 2017, 192)
===Implied meaning and value===
In traditional Chinese culture, people attach great importance to their children. Parents hope their children will have bright future and also, they hope they can be taken good care of by their kids when they are old. So parents have high expectations for their kids.
When children are little babies, their parents use kinds of ways which might be superstitious to protect them from dangers. For example, when a baby is born, the first person who holds the baby is serious in China, because the Chinese people think the behavior will pass good luck, a healthy body and so on to the kid, so they require the person who is the first to hold their new-born baby is of good health and good fortune and so on.
Therefore, tiger-faced shoes are of the same significance for Chinese parents. Tiger, the king of beasts, has the implied meaning of good luck and power in China, so parents make tiger-shoes for their little baby to prevent dangers, bad luck and disease. Meanwhile, according to Yin Zhuoran, he said a pair of tiger-faced shoes “有鼻子有眼” (has a nose and big eyes), which means the one who wears it is a complete and healthy person.(Yin Zhuoran, 2010, 185) Yang Xueqin also referred to that “In folk art, women's fabric products, embroidery, paper cut and other designs, follow the idea symbolized by the metaphor, and are subject to the wishes of happiness and luck...”(Yang Xueqin, 1990, 179) Such statements implied that those who wear tiger head shoes will be a healthy, auspicious and happy person.
Also, the shape of the shoes is matched with children’s growing feet, letting children walking freely.
Tigers have strong life, and the Chinese people praise highly of it, which can be shown in some Chinese idioms such as “生龙活虎” “如龙似虎” “龙腾虎跃” (all of these idioms mean someone has vitality and vigour) and so on. All of these idioms contain a high appreciation for tigers, so parents hope their new-born babies have strong life just like tigers. Also, tigers have a positive impression in Chinese people’s hearts, so they also hope their kids could have the same good characters with tigers in the world.
===Conclusion===
As a part of traditional Chinese culture, tiger-faced shoes has been handed down by the Chinese people from generation to generation, and people innovate it in different ways. Ding Xiaojia once mentioned in his article: “Tiger shaped pillow and tiger-shaped earthenware are very like modeling of tiger-head shoes in spirit. People are using another way to express their respect for tiger-head shoes’ auspicious meaning.”(Ding Xiaojia, 2015, 628) The combination of traditional craftsmanship with constant innovation has kept the vitality of tiger-faced shoes. And with the shoes, Chinese parents place the best wishes on their children. so, in today’s world, it is important for us to inherit and spread the culture of tiger-faced shoes, as well as making innovation constantly. Only doing these will our fine traditional Chinese culture flourish.

===摘要===
马面裙又名“马面褶裙”，是中国古代裙式的主要代表之一。它源于宋代，盛于明清，延续至今，受到无数人的青睐。在此，我想借此文介绍马面裙，让读者了解其发展历史、结构特征、图案纹样、色彩搭配等，使中国的马面裙走向世界。
===关键词===
马面裙、历史发展、结构特征、图案纹样、色彩搭配

===Introduction===
When it comes to “horseface skirt (also mamianqun)”, you may be amazed by its name. So why is it called that? Some people believe that it’s because the skirt doors look quite similar to “mamian”, which refers to the defensive structure of the ancient city wall. While others think that its middle skirt door, which is a rectangle, is like a long horse face. Therefore, this part of skirt is named as “mamian”, and the skirt itself is called mamianqun (also horseface skirt) (Cai Liming 1993,379).

The word “Ma Mian” first appeared in the ''Ming Palace''(Qi Ziyu 2012，2). And the history of horseface skirt can be traced back to “spin skirt” in the Song Dynasty. So, what’s spin skirt? Actually, it is a functional dress designed for women’s donkey riding. Meng Hui said, “This type of Song skirt is composed of two equal but independent trains. When making a skirt, the two parts are partially stacked together and sewn to the waist (Caoxue,Wang Qunshan 2016,109).” Because of its shape and structure, it’s considered to be the embryonic form of horseface skirt. In Ming Dynasty, the horseface skirt gradually formed. With its simple style and beautiful color, it impressed people with its elegance. From the royal nobles to the common people, everyone wore horseface skirts. However, in terms of the texture, decoration, and color, there were strict differences among classes. Since the foundation of the Qing Dynasty, horseface skirt evolved from a general skirt for men and women to a skirt only for women, and more forms appeared, such as pleated skirt, yuehua skirt, and fengwei skirt. In the 21st century, to some extent, the rise of Hanfu movement has once again promoted horseface skirt, and it’s still favored by world people.

====The Structure of Horseface Skirt====
“The Yi (the upper garment) and Shang (the lower skirt)”is one of the clothing forms in Chinese civilization, and horseface skirt is a kind of “Shang”, which is mainly composed of four parts, namely, the skirt door, the skirt flank, the skirt couplet and the waistband. There are 4 skirt doors at the front, back, inside and outside, overlapping each other. The two skirt flanks refer to the side folds of the skirt. And two skirt couplets are two pieces, which are partially stacked together and sewn to the waist. While the waistband functions to gird the waist with the help of beltloops. It is this special design that allows the wearer to move freely without being too revealing，which reflects the implicit and introverted national temperament of the Chinese nation.

====The Patterns of Horseface Skirt====
Let’s move on, and learn about its patterns! There are two types of horseface skirt patterns -- separate embroidery patterns and large embroidery patterns,among which the separate embroidery patterns account for the majority. Each pattern conveys a different meaning. Taking the animal patterns “dragon” and “phoenix” as an example, in the long history of China, dragon and phoenix are considered to be auspicious. They are seen to be the symbols of prosperity, solemnity and power. Therefore, these patterns are mostly found in the clothes of ancient emperors and their concubines. Taking the pattern of “fish” as another example, fish harmonizes with "Yu"（in mandarin）,which conveys the good meaning of having a surplus for the next year in China. People also embroider some plants and flowers on their horseface skirts, such as our national flower peony, which represents wealth and nobility; the undefiled lotus, which symbolizes purity; the golden chrysanthemum, which represents longevity; and lily, which represents sacredness and holiness, friendship and a bright future (Sun Hui ,Wu Yue 2017,11).

====The Colors of Horseface Skirt====
Generally speaking, in terms of color, horseface skirt can be divided into solid color horse face skirt and colorful horseface skirt (such as yuehua skirt). Horseface skirts are always gorgeous in color, mostly red, followed by blue and other colors(Zhang Pei，Yang Jingyi 2022,80).That’s because the red color represents joy and auspiciousness, which can bring people hopes and wishes for a better life in the future, and give them a sense of happiness. Therefore, it seems that Chinese people naturally love the red color instead of some other dark colors, such as black. Nowadays, young and creative designers are making the horseface skirt more colorful, beautiful and attractive. They are very skillful at striking a wonderful balance between cold and warm colors, and pay attention to the contrast of colors with different brightness and purity, thus making more peoplef fall in love with horseface skirt.

===Conclusion===
The horseface skirt did originate from China and has a very long history. While in July, Dior appropriated Chinese horseface skirt culture and insisted that its collection was an original design, which infuriated Chinese students who took to the streets to protest, demanding respect for Chinese culture. It is this event that prompts me to write this passage. And I know the passage maybe not comprehensive due to the limitation of words, but I still sincerely hope that readers can gain something from it, such as its development history, structure, etc. And I hope more people will love Chinese horseface skirt and spread it to the world.

That’s all! Thank you for your careful reading!

==The Rise of ‘China Chic’: A Case Study of Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games==
<center>周晓兰 Zhou Xiaolan,202270081682.</center>
===Abstract===
‘China Chic’ is a term that describes the trend of China-centric design, incorporating unique cultural elements into the latest trends. With the growing popularity of China’s native fashion trends, more young people are paying attention to traditional Chinese culture. And the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games can be seen as a good example of how the world has embraced China Chic. This paper focuses on the rise of China Chic, taking Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games as an example.

“国潮”之崛起：以2022北京冬奥会为例
===摘要===
“国潮”将独特的中国文化元素融入最新潮流，代表着以中国文化为中心的设计趋势。随着中国本土时尚潮流的日益流行，越来越多的年轻人开始关注中国传统文化。而2022北京冬奥会恰如其分地展现了国潮正在融入世界潮流。本文将以2022北京冬奥会为例，探究国潮之崛起。
===关键词===
国潮，中国传统文化，北京冬奥会
===Introduction===
China Chic, or Guochao, is a new type of youth culture with ‘China’ as the core, ‘Chic’ as the expression, ‘culture + technology’ as the driving force, and ‘integration + innovation’ as the main direction of development(Cao Wenfang 2022, 92). And the impact of China Chic has been expanded across various categories, including obvious ones like fashion and cosmetics, and others like architecture, technology, automobiles, and so on. As it develops, China Chic increasingly manifests Chinese people’s ambition of reviving traditional heritage in a modern context and reflecting the profound pride in their national identity (Coco Wu, Harry Kinnear, Maya Madhusoodan, 2020). Incorporating unique cultural elements into the latest trends, Beijing Winter Olympics serves as a good example of the rise of China Chic. China took the chance to introduce its most distinctive cultural elements, through the Games’ logo, mascot, ceremonies and so on. And this paper will introduce the China Chic in the event, through Games’ opening ceremony, mascot, and sports clothing.
===The 24 Solar Terms in the Opening Ceremony===
The 24 solar terms, having been developed throughout Chinese history since about 3,000 years ago and listed on the UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2016, are so important to Chinese people that it appears both creative and natural for Zhang Yimou to employ and showcase them as a unique part of Chinese civilization to the world (Yang Yang, 2022). Hailed as China’s fifth greatest invention, the solar terms developed by ancient Chinese as a calendar to guide agricultural production and reflect some natural phenomena and human life.

The opening ceremony started with a countdown of the 24 solar terms instead of using numbers, delighting the audience, as the first of the 24 solar terms-- “Beginning of Spring” fell on this very day. The countdown of the 24 solar terms shows the unique understanding of Chinese nation towards time. What’s more, Zhang used beautiful poems and proverbs to explain the characteristics of each solar term, while incorporating modern technology to show them in video. Many netizens praised this idea as a show of Chinese Romance. Such combination of traditional culture and modern technology shows the vitality of Chinese culture and the wisdom of Chinese nation.
===Mascot===
Being eyecatchers that help create an Olympic atmosphere, mascots serve to demonstrate the ideas of the host, and the history and culture of the host country (Yin Ziqiang 2022, 10). Bing Dwen Dwen is the panda mascot for Beijing Winter Olympics. Bing means ice in Mandarin, representing purity and strength. Dwen Dwen means sincerity, health, vitality and loveliness, representing the strong body, tenacious will and inspiring spirit of athletes. As a national emblem for China and a significant symbol for foreigners to learn about China, giant pandas are under first-class protection, revealing core Chinese values of harmony between man and nature.

Bing Dwen Dwen wears a full body shell out of ice which connotes both winter sports and China’s space dream. Its head shell is decorated with flowing bright-colored lines symbolizing the track of winter sports and the 5G technology. What’s more, colorful ribbons and the black and white panda present traditional Chinese aesthetic thought of contrast and unity. Bing Dwen Dwen not only captures the profound cultural heritage, but also shows the Olympic spirit and the development of modern technology.

Thanks to its chubby and lovable look, Bing Dwen Dwen has soon become a smash hit around the world. Bing Dwen Dwen souvenirs have been sold out in online stores and customers have to wait in long lines at offline stores to try their luck. As a new online celebrity representing the Winter Olympics, cute and adorable Bing Dwen Dwen was liked and followed by athletes and journalists from around the world who were incredibly enthusiastic about taking photos with the mascot. Bing Dwen Dwen even became a trending Olympic topic on Twitter, building a bridge of communication across national borders and bringing China Chic to the world.
===Sports Clothing===
During Beijing Winter Olympics, Young athletes wore sports clothing bearing Chinese elements, such as dragons, pandas, tigers, the Great Wall, traditional Chinese painting, and Beijing Opera facial makeup, which surprised world audience. Perfectly combining the functionality, nationality and artistry, the sports clothing can realize the free wearing under the change of temperature and scene, which helps to enhance the performance of Team China (Ma Yan, 2021).

It is worth mentioning that the “golden dragon coat” of Eileen Gu, a rising Chinese sports star, spreads China Chic to the world. The “golden dragon coat” was designed by herself to spread Chinese culture, featuring a golden Chinese Dragon on the reverse of the clothing. Dragon is a symbol of China, and descendants of dragon refer to Chinese nation (Yin Sairui 2022, 50). It reveals the spirit of forging ahead. In Chinese culture, gold symbolizes nobility, brilliance and glory. Therefore, the golden dragon coat serves as a brilliant display of Chinese culture. What’s more, incorporating modern fashion trend in its style, this coat is a perfect example of China Chic. Gu’s spectacular performance in the Olympic Games also offers a great opportunity to show China Chic to the world. And this coat is now in the collection of the Olympic Museum in Lausanne, Switzerland. As a result, more and more people start to pay attention to Chinese fashion brands which present rich culture and traditional elements of China through the intuitive of dressing (Zijing Han, Duo Xu, Rujia Zheng, 2022).
===Conclusion===
Beijing Winter Olympics introduces China Chic to the world and show the vitality of Chinese culture. It also demonstrates that Chinese culture is stepping onto the international stage. Therefore, it is necessary for China to take the advantage of China Chic to spread traditional Chinese culture, turning such youth culture into national culture.

==A Brief Introduction of Chinese History of Petting
<center> Zhou Zihao, 202270081702 </center>
===Abstract===
This chapter is on petting in Chinese history. Pets had been considered to be a component of Western lifestyle, and Chinese, maybe due to the notorious reputation for eating dogs, has been long labeled as "a land unfriendly for pets". It was documented that, however, Chinese, especially those in high society, have been keeping pets since anicent times. This paper attempts to give a descriptive view to the petting history of China.

===关键词===

===Introduction===
Chinese were thought not so pet-friendly as Westerners, especially for its notorious dog-eating, and petting is indeed never considered by people home or abroad as a long-prevailing habit of Chinese. In fact, even nowadays petting in China cannot be described as anything related to “popular”. According to 2021 Chinese Pet Industry White Paper, the number of dog-and-cat owners totalled to 68.44 million in 2021 and was expected to increase to 71.68 million which took up only 5.12% of China’s total population. Other “non-traditional” pets, say, birds, other small mammals, reptiles are even rarer to public sight. Even though pet-owner are still a small proportion in China, petting is surely gaining more and more attention publicly and politically.
===Historical Overview of Chinese Petting===
Petting hasn’t been a popular thing since ancient times. For an agricultural country like China, “unpragmatic” animals like dogs and cats used to be quite uncommon because they were not beneficial for farming (Custer, 2021). Nevertheless, there were a few famous pet-lovers documented for their adoration for certain animals. In Pre-Qin periods, the emperor Yi of Wei loved raising cranes. The elegant and purely-white bird was terribly doted on by the emperor Yi who even ranked them with their appearances and qualities and “remunerated” them in accordance with their given “official positions” (Zuo, 2007). Zang Wenzhong, a contemporary of Yi, was obsessed with another unusual animal¬¬—turtles. Like Yi the emperor, Zang cosseted his pets by accommodating the turtles in luxury palaces and that solicited commotion leading to his own doomed end. Interestingly their pampery was harshly chastised by Confucius as a breach of ethical conventions. At that time petting had been exclusive for upper classes with wealth and power who despite the stereotypes of abusing animals pampered their pets with obscene extravagancy. During the Tang Dynasty (AC 618¬¬¬—AC 907) the royal members started raising exotic animals tributed by foreigners as their pets such as elephants, lions, and rhinos in the palace. At the same time petting was gaining popularity among public, and it was presented by the paintings that some people from middle and lower classes had small-sized pets like chicken, dogs, and cats. Animals were no longer merely food resources and pets were more than a time killer but an emotional support and religious and spiritual symbol as well (Li, 2017). Literati would also rest their hopes and sentiments on certain animals in poems. With an increasing demand in petting, a pet-friendly system was also built to condemn the animal-abusers and to compromise who thus lost their pets. In the Ming Dynasty (AC 1368¬¬—AC 1644), Wen Zhenheng recorded then elegant lifestyle of upper literati in his book Zhang Wu Zhi and described their choices of pets in one chapter. In the book Wen deemed pets as “a necessary art for those who live in solitude amongst the hills and woods” (Wen, 2015). By “necessary”, however, Wen meant it for upper class still since the book was written for them. In the Qing Dynasty (AC 1636¬—AC 1912), Man people brought with them nomadic culture and horses and birds were the majority of their choices of pets (She, 2019). In late Qing Dynasty people carrying a bird cage were common to be seen in the teahouses in Beijing as the symbol of their social statue. During the Cultural Revolution in 1960s and 1970s, pets were regarded as the component of the lifestyle of capitalism and therefore strictly forbidden. Pet owners have no choice but to hide, abandon, and even kill their pets. It was surely the most terrible era for pets and their owners. Nowadays in the 21th Century more and more Chinese have pets. Research showed that the pet market in China has increased 60% every year (Pitt, 2021). Analysts also expected that China’s pet industry will multiply 10 times that of a decade ago to 66 billion dollars. Even though petting system in China is still immature and still some people regard pet as emotionless animals, a more convenient society is being built for animal-lovers. Moreover, pets can get new jobs in cat-or-dog café and even make an income on social media. People’s attitude towards pets also changed a lot. Take dogs as example. Chinese used to treat dog as a source of meat. However, today the majority of dogs are viewed as companions and usually treated as family members (Coren, 2018).
===Conclusion===
In conclusion, pets were rare in ancient China, and most people who had pets were those in higher classes. Their pets were uncommon and exotic animals such as birds and fishes instead of dogs and cats. It is since the Tang Dynasty that people from lower classes started to have small animals as pets. However, in ancient times pets gained little popularity in general. In modern times with the increase of middle class and the influence of western culture, people’s attitude towards pets changed and dogs and cats are more accepted by public. Even though China has not been the most pet-friendly country, a mature petting system is now being built.

==Opera:Lv opera(of Shandong Province)==
<center>庄昊康Zhuang Haokang, 202270081713</center>
===Abstract===
Lv Opera, also known as Yangqin and Qinxi Opera, is a national intangible cultural heritage, one of the eight major operas in China, and the most representative local opera in Shandong Province. It is popular in most parts of Shandong Province and parts of Jiangsu, Anhui and Northeast China. It originated in the Yellow River Delta in northern Shandong Province and evolved from Shandong Qinshu. Its music belongs to Banqiang, and it also sings Qupai. The main accompaniment instruments are Zhuiqin (the main string), Yangqin, Sanxian and Pipa, which are called "the four major pieces of Lv Opera".It is deeply loved by the broad masses of the people with its simple and vivid language, beautiful and pleasant singing voice.

===Key Words===
Lv Opera;Cultural Heritage;Opera;Music Forms;Performing Arts

===Introduction===
Lv Opera originated in the Yellow River Delta, where the Yan and Zhao cultures, the Sanjin culture and the recent Beijing and Tianjin cultures have merged, making this area a long and colorful history of folk art. Among these arts, "Shuo Shu" is especially popular among the masses, and the storytellers use the local language familiar to the masses to interpret stories that express the emotional life and social patterns of the Qilu people. Huimin County," there is mentioned: "rap music in the lower reaches of the Yellow River in this area is quite prosperous, more than fifty miles southwest of Binzhou not far from the Yellow River there is a Huji village (belonging to Huimin County), where every year to hold a 'book meeting' to Huji as a gathering place, hiring rap artists from around the world to come to sing ". According to local elders, the "Huji Book Fair" was traced back to the Yuan Dynasty, and was even more prosperous in the early Qing Dynasty, and is still an annual event in Huimin. It can be inferred that this "book fair" provided the conditions for the introduction of the qinshu panel style, which also laid the main position of Shandong qinshu in the cultural activities of the Yellow River Delta at that time, and the predecessor of Lv opera sprouted in such an environment.

In terms of the distribution of Lv opera in Shandong Province, the Qinshu is divided into the east, the south and the north to spread. The various documentary sources can be summarized that it was not until around 1913 that Guangrao and Boxing completed the establishment of the board cadence and the mode of make-up performance respectively, which marked the basic formation of the prototype of Lv opera.

The germination of Lv opera is the fruit of the geographical environment, folk customs and folk art traditions of the Yellow River Delta region, and is the crystallization of the wisdom of the working people of Guangrao and Boxing. Lv opera emerged here, flourished here and developed from here, precisely because of the performance form of South Road Qinshu as the foundation, plus the later development and consolidation of East Road and North Road Qinshu, which facilitated the process of the birth of Lv opera.

Because of the connection between Lv opera and Shandong Qinshu, the repertoire of early Lv opera was mostly adapted from Shandong Qinshu, and some of the repertoire was transplanted from other genres. This type of repertoire was mainly based on folklore, and was created orally by the artists of the time according to the local customs and customs. After the test of time, scholars now classify this category of repertoire as "traditional repertoire". After the establishment of New China, according to the national policy of that time, Lv opera also created some new plays in response to the current trend, which are called "modern plays". Lv opera is still being developed, and the plays with historical themes that appear on the stage today are born out of the increasing aesthetic demand of the audience and the national policy of melody. The repertoire of Shandong Lv opera can be divided into three categories: "traditional plays", "modern plays" and "new historical plays".

The singing method of Lv opera is the same for both male and female cavities, but the male cavity is mainly sung in real voice, while the female cavity is sung in a combination of real and falsetto voice, and is five degrees higher than the male cavity. Since Lv opera originated from the art of rapping, there is no distinction between "singing" and "reading" in the performance.

When singing, Lv opera focuses on setting up the cadence with words, bringing the voice with emotion, singing with singing, spitting out words clearly, speaking naturally, and sounding natural and smooth. Compared with the high and aggressive Qin cadence and the soft and distant Kunqu, the singing voice of Lv opera is more lyrical and lingering. It is often used for the glissando, trill and ornamentation, and it is important for the words to be correct. The combination of soft tone, trill, beating tone and overtone of the falling qin makes the whole singing stretching and beautiful. Shandong Lv opera has absorbed the artistic components of the clapper cavity, so it is also based on the board cavity, and its singing voice can be roughly divided into two categories: "Siping cavity" and "two boards".

Lv opera is mostly about small matters between parents and neighbors, so it is rare to see actors doing fighting on the stage of Lv opera, and the plays with more action are only exaggerated renditions of real-life actions. It was only after a large number of new historical dramas were created that more and more martial arts plays were seen on the stage of Lv opera. "Doing" and "fighting" are usually combined with each other in opera performances. The female roles require a higher level of "doing", such as "lying fish", which requires the actor to be skilled in terms of flexibility, balance and waist and leg strength.

After a hundred years of development, Lv Opera has been included in the list of intangible cultural heritage of China and is one of the eight major local operas in China, which can be said to be a small achievement. However, as an important member of Chinese traditional culture, it inevitably encounters various obstacles in the process of development. In order to pass on Lv opera better, it is inevitable that reasonable and effective countermeasures should be formulated in conjunction with the characteristics of the times.

===Conclusion===
The current situation of Lv Opera in Shandong province is not optimistic.Many professional Lv Opera troupes have been gradually renamed or merged,or even completely disappeared.The inheritance of Lv Opera has become increasingly difficult. The younger generation,who genuinely love Lv Opera and perform it,are also less and less.The audience is aging.Based on these conditions,it is not only necessary to carry out the task of promoting traditional culture to individuals,but also requires the government to increase its investment in culture and art, and introduce more effective policies.

The various documentary sources can be summarized [as stating] that it was not until around 1913 that Guangrao and Boxing completed the establishment of the board cadence[. The] mode of make-up performance [was also established at this time] respectively[. This] marked the basic formation of the prototype of Lv opera.

The germination of Lv opera is the fruit of the geographical environment, folk customs and folk art traditions of the Yellow River Delta region[. It is also] the crystallization of the wisdom of the working people of Guangrao and Boxing. Lv opera emerged here, flourished here[,] and developed from here, precisely because the performance form of South Road Qinshu [acted] as [its] foundation[. In addition,] the later development and consolidation of East Road and North Road Qinshu facilitated the process of the birth of Lv opera.

Because of the connection between Lv opera and Shandong Qinshu, the repertoire of early Lv opera was mostly adapted from Shandong Qinshu, and some of the repertoire was transplanted from other genres. This type of repertoire was mainly based on folklore, and was created orally by the artists of the time according to the local customs. After the test of time, scholars now classify this category of repertoire as "traditional repertoire". After the establishment of New China, according to the national policy of that time, Lv opera also created some new plays in response to the current trend, which are called "modern plays". Lv opera is still being develop[ing], and the plays with historical themes that appear on the stage today are born out of the increasing aesthetic demand of the audience and the national policy of melody [is there an actual government policy on melody?]. The repertoire of Shandong Lv opera can be divided into three categories: [traditional, modern, and new historical plays.]

The singing method of Lv opera is the same for both male and female cavities, but the male cavity is mainly sung in real voice, while the female cavity is sung in a combination of real and falsetto voice, and is five degrees higher than the male cavity. Since Lv opera originated from the art of rapping, there is no distinction between singing and reading in the performance.

When singing, Lv opera focuses on setting up the cadence with words, bringing the voice with emotion, singing with singing, [pronouncing] words clearly, speaking naturally [and smoothly.] Compared with the high and aggressive Qin cadence and the soft and distant Kunqu, the singing voice of Lv opera is more lyrical and lingering. It is often used for the glissando, trill and ornamentation[. It is also] important for the words to be correct. The combination of soft tone, trill, beating tone and overtone of the falling qin makes the whole singing stretching [consider a new word here to clarify your meaning for "stretching"] and beautiful. Shandong Lv opera has absorbed the artistic components of the clapper cavity, so it is also based on the board cavity, and its singing voice can be roughly divided into two categories: siping cavity and two boards.

Lv opera is mostly about small matters between parents and neighbors, so it is rare to see actors [doing fight scenes] on the stage of Lv opera, and the plays with more action are only exaggerated renditions of real-life [activities]. It was only after a large number of new historical dramas were created that more and more martial arts plays were seen on the stage of Lv opera. "Doing" and "fighting" are usually combined with each other in opera performances. The female roles require a higher level of "doing", such as "lying fish", which requires the actor to be skilled in terms of flexibility, balance[,] and [utilizes much] waist and leg strength.

After a hundred years of development, Lv Opera has been included in the list of [the] intangible cultural heritage of China and is one of the eight major local operas in China, which can be said to be [no?] small achievement. However, as an important member of Chinese traditional culture, it inevitably encounters various obstacles in the process of development. In order to [continue to] pass on Lv opera [effectively], it is [necessary] that reasonable and effective countermeasures should be formulated in conjunction with the characteristics of the times.

===Conclusion===
The current situation of Lv Opera in Shandong province is not [looking very] optimistic.[ ]Many professional Lv Opera troupes have been gradually renamed or merged,[ ]or even completely disappeared.[ ]The inheritance of Lv Opera has become increasingly difficult. The younger generation,[ ]who genuinely love[s] Lv Opera and perform[s] it,[ is] also [becoming smaller and smaller].[ ]The audience is aging.[ ]Based on these conditions,[ ]it is not only necessary to carry out the task of promoting traditional culture to individuals,[ ]but also requires the government to increase its investment in culture and art, and [to] introduce more effective policies.

==Chinese Culture and A Child’s Education==

<center> Wellsand, Benjamin, 202111080018 </center>

===Abstract===

The social conditions of China have never been more taxing when it comes to a decades-long engrained child education culture and a problematic rapidly aging population. The social constructs of the longstanding loyalty to kinship and interdependence of collectivism within China place a cyclical concern from parent to child as one looks out for the other to ensure a fruitful economic future. The 1950s one-child policy has not only served to slow birth rates but has inadvertently allowed for a significant amount of finances to be set aside for the future of an only child to ensure the desired monetary success. The Chinese Communist Party has recognized the challenges the future of the country faces as a result of past policies and is seeking to revolutionize the education culture in order to permit Chinese families to grow without fear of missing out on a profitable and fulfilling future for the entire family unit. The modern-day CCP and the ancient philosopher, Confucius, align in their understanding of the vital role that the family plays in the future health of Chinese society.

===Key Words===

Collective Culture; Filial Piety; Kinship Culture; Private Education; Standardized Testing

===Introduction===

In Chinese culture, the family name is displayed prominently before the individual’s given name as a clear indicator of the honor given to the family unit and the collective nature by which the individual is viewed within foundational societal institutions. China is a culture that is overtly centered on kinship. “Male offspring were especially valued for their role in carrying on the family name, explains Li Liu of Beijing Normal University, “without a male heir, a family line originating from its ancestors is terminated, and the family’s place in the universe gets lost forever.” (2007: 57) China is world-renown for having the largest population. Beginning in the 1950s, the population grew on a steep trajectory from 540 million to 940 million by 1976. The booming industrialization caused concern of famine and housing shortages as more people were expected to start searching for higher-paying urban jobs as opposed to working on farms. In response to these concerns, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) started limiting births provincially in 1979 and finally standardized the one-child policy in 1980 which limited ethnic Chinese to only one child per couple. The fertility rate dropped from 6.1 in 1990 to 1.16 in 2021. (Master & Zhang 2022)

It is the cultural importance placed upon a male heir to carry on the family name that explains the resulting current skewed sex ratio. (Statista 2021) Charles Kraft shares, “Family and relatives are the big things to [kinship cultures]. Those with family are wealthy (whether or not they have any money).” (1996: 121) Great financial responsibility is placed upon a son’s family who is seeking to find a wife for him. 房子 (house), 车子 (car), and 票子 (money) are viewed as the requirements that should be met in order for a daughter to agree to take a man as her husband. While housing prices have steadied (Aljazeera 2022), the job market continues to be a challenge do to an economic slow from the COVID-19 pandemic. (Bloomberg News 2022)

There is an inordinate amount of competition in children’s education that accompanies these high social demands. Laurie Chen (2018) reports that more than sixty percent of primary school children (up to seventy percent in larger cities) were tutored outside of the classroom and parents paid an average of 120,000 RMB on up to 300,000 RMB for extracurricular education. The 双一流 (double first-class initiative) higher education ranking leaves limited space for academic success. Zhang Duanhong (2019), writes of “the ‘exhausting high school, carefree university’ paradigm, in which university life is treated as a reward for making it through the rigors of the country’s college entrance exam.” The 90 percent graduation rate further limits the space available in universities and increased entry competition. The highly competitive nature in higher education has conditioned both sexes to pursue the greatest quality of education and the highest paid positions obtainable. Students must place their entire life on hold and focus all attention on study.

To ease the high societal demands of childrearing and encourage population growth, the CCP has made significant policy changes in areas such as private education (Koty 2021), maternity leave (Huang & Huang 2021), afterschool childcare (Zhang 2021), along with child subsidies (Ma 2022). Yet it remains an uphill battle to change the social conditioning of a country built around a single-child family. The 鸡娃 (chicken baby) parenting mentality continues on despite best efforts to curb this longstanding trend. (Feng 2021) Private education has not disappeared but has simply undergone a transformation as is the case with English tutors turned online product salespeople. (Jia 2022) Private education companies are believed to shift as well from educators to a rebranding as providers of AI products, software, and services for public education institutions. (Knox 2021)

The philosopher, Confucius, upon whose teaching pillars Chinese society is built, was a strong advocate of the family. He recognized human flourishing occurring within five complex relationships and three of these are familial: father/son, elder/younger brother, and husband/wife. Confucius felt that it was “in the context of the family that we acquire the building blocks for navigating the wildly complex relational networks that comprise human society.” (Ten Elshof, 2015: 14) Filial piety is no surprise in the face of a culture that centers on the family. Liu explains, “Filial piety is more than just showing filial obedience to parents: most importantly, it indicates raising sons to support aging parents and having sons to continue the family line.” (2007: 56) This too is a practice that finds support within Confucianism as a “value that calls on adult children to fulfill obligations to respect, obey, support, and care for elderly parents.” (Shea, Moore, & Zhang, 2020: 29) 养儿防老 (to bring up children for the purpose of being looked after in old age) is the Chinese parental motto that shows the expectations placed upon the children to care for their aging parents. Caring for the aged will only increase in difficulty as the average age of Chinese citizens rises. (Campbell 2019) Further exacerbating the age demographic phenomena is that this comes on the heels of the one-child policy that leaves two sets of aging parents on the shoulders of one married couple. Tang Youcai and Jeanne Shea discovered that those coming from rural areas “have both higher proportions of elderly folks and lower levels of economic development.” (2020: 92)

===Conclusion===

A collective, kinship country that is culturally conditioned to associate the wellbeing and preservation of the family with social and economic success finds itself in the face of a challenging future. The CCP is working tirelessly to show it supports and recognizes the need for the Chinese family, only that it has one major issue with it: its size. The battle for the family that started in Confucius’s day continues in the present. The academic atmosphere that crescendos at standardized testing (Li 2019) and a highly competitive job market that leaves even college graduates in a tight spot (Pike 2022) places the child’s education at front and center in the battle for social survival. The weight of the future of China predictably rests, from a cultural perspective, on the shoulders of the family unit.
