VIN Taiwan would like to congratulate Dr. Vo Duc Thang won the Innovative Teaching Award in General Chemistry, fall semester 2021 at National Taiwan University of Science and Technology (NTUST – Taiwan Tech).
Dr. Vo Duc Thang has applied the PBL (Problem-based Learning) method in teaching General Chemistry. This method has been applied quite a lot in teaching. Different from traditional teaching, lecturers will prepare problems to stimulate students' thinking to discuss and find solutions to problems. Through discussing and understanding the problem, students can grasp and understand the content more easily. In addition, students can also do small projects to demonstrate the knowledge they have learned.
Dr. Vo Duc Thang has worked at the Academy of Engineering, Taiwan Tech for more than four years. In the beginning, he mainly taught foreign students in the International Advanced Engineering Program at the school. Recently, Taiwan has been promoting teaching Taiwanese students in English in EMI (English Medium Instruction) courses. Therefore, applying teaching methods that help students easily access content is necessary and important.
