NTNU AI Education Research Expertise Supports Taipei City’s AI Education Policy White Paper |
點閱次數: 29 |
| As artificial intelligence (AI) rapidly enters educational settings, Distinguished Professor Ting-Chia Hsu of the Department of Technology Application and Human Resource Development at National Taiwan Normal University (NTNU), who also serves as Director of the Division of Logic and Programming Education in NTNU’s Office of Academic Affairs, delivered introductory remarks at the launch event for the Taipei City AI Education Policy White Paper on July 3, 2026, in her capacity as editor-in-chief of the White Paper. Professor Hsu highlighted an important policy shift: AI education is moving from tool adoption to systemic governance, and from isolated applications to city-level educational infrastructure. She noted that AI is no longer merely a new classroom tool; it is reshaping how teachers prepare lessons, design materials, provide assessment feedback, and how students ask questions, explore knowledge, and create. The core purpose of AI in education, she emphasized, is not to pursue technological novelty, but to deepen learning outcomes across subject areas and interdisciplinary learning contexts.more |

Meet the Yuchi Music Frog, a Newfound Species That Sings |
點閱次數: 122 |
| Among Taiwan’s native amphibians, the frog long identified as Nidirana okinavana has the narrowest known distribution and the smallest remaining population size. It was previously thought to occur only on Ishigaki and Iriomote Islands in the southern Ryukyus and in Nantou County, Taiwan. A collaborative study by National Taiwan Normal University, the Taiwan Biodiversity Research Institute of the Ministry of Agriculture, and the Taiwan Forestry Research Institute demonstrated that the Taiwanese and Ryukyu populations differ markedly and should be treated as separate species. This taxonomic revision adds one more species to Taiwan’s endemic frog fauna. The newly named Yuchi music frog is now also recognized as one of the most endangered frogs in the world.more |
