IHP: International Honors Program at Kainan University/開南大學國際榮譽學程
EMI: English Medium Instruction/使用英語進行教學
(During class, I speak English only. That is the rule for teachers, and meanwhile someone is "looking at/monitoring" me. But during the break or after class, students can speak Mandarin with me or discuss in the LINE group. However, I would like to encourage non-English native students to practice more in any chance)
---------------------------
I ever studied my PhD program in the US for several years, and I completely understand the frustration/fear/stress with my not-good English. Now, I am a teacher, I obligate to help students who are not English native speakers. Any questions, please let me know.
我曾在美國讀了幾年的博士班，我完全了解英文欠佳的那種挫折/恐懼/壓力。現在我是老師，我有義務要協助非英語母語的學生。任何問題，請讓我知道。
And, you will be here

English, such as food or nutrition guidelines written in Taiwanese
Mandarin. (2) correct the English (laws/regulations/guidelines) from The Ministry of Health and Welfare. The authorities outsourced the translation works, however, some translations were horrible. And you can help correct them.
If students are confident/positive/aggressive/driven, we can collaborate to publish open textbooks with ISBNs (or you can do yourself, and I can help). Thus, you will have book(s)
before graduating. Meanwhile, the textbook (PDF files or paper) will
be downloaded or circulated in his/her country.

KNU taking a roll call policy
(they did not have it in English, thus I used Google Translate without proof-reading--it is not my duty)
各位老師教安：
為提高學生出席率，並因應教育部教學品質查核及校務評鑑等需求，授課教師每週均須點名，並應有明確記錄。
請教師向學生宣導每週均會點名，另為避免遇有臨時查核時，授課教師無法提出相關紙本點名紀錄，請授課教師於課堂點名後，將每週課程之出缺席資料登錄於教務資訊系統，以利能迅速提出學生出席資料。系統之操作說明詳附件。
本項登錄系統僅供教師備查及提供佐證之用，教務處不會因缺席登記對學生進行任何處置；「前四週未到課」預警及期末「本學期1/3未到課」之作業仍需另行登錄。
請勿只勾出席或缺席，以免造成學生申請各項獎學金或實習之困擾，請先全選出席，再將未出席者改為缺席或請假。
Dear teachers, please teach:
In order to increase student attendance and meet the needs of the Ministry of Education for teaching quality inspection and school evaluation, teachers must take roll call every week and there should be clear records.
Teachers are requested to publicize to students that roll call will be held every week. In order to prevent teachers from being unable to provide relevant paper roll call records during temporary inspections, teachers are required to log attendance and absence data for each week's classes into the academic information system after roll call in class. , in order to quickly submit student attendance information. System operating instructions are attached.
This login system is only for teachers’ reference and to provide supporting evidence. The Academic Affairs Office will not take any action against students due to absence registration; the early warning of "not showing up for class in the past four weeks" and the assignment of "not showing up for class for 1/3 of this semester" at the end of the semester are still A separate login is required.
Please do not only check attendance or absence, so as not to cause trouble for students to apply for various scholarships or internships. Please select all attendance first, and then change the non-attendance to absence or leave.
