A regularly organised lunch project aming at building a relaxing and warm way to promote communication between professors and students. During this lunch, professors can present the innovative methods to their students and receive the authentic feedback from them, which can be a valuable reference to design the course.

As the ¨ Course Reform¨  (课程改革) in PKU is becoming one of the central projects to adapt this historial university to the rapid development of the society, it´s necessary to open a channel which can let the reform known by the stakeholders. This Weekly Newsletter includes several columns, the latest course policy, special interview with the experts of course reform, new course evaluation from students etc. It can assume a inscription system, those who want to keep up with the changes can get what they want to know.

#1.3 ¨ Course lab ¨

This project wants to enlarge the impact of the most advanced methodologies in campus by engaging the students in the design of the courses. In this ¨ Course Lab ¨ project, students learn about the theory of the newest methodologies and design their own course on the shoes of a professor, which can let them be more conscious of the education that they received, and take more initiative in the study. 

#Strategy 2 Consolidate and Integrate Existing PKU I&E Channels

• Reformat and reconfigure the canvas to suit the particularities of the PKU Ecosystem
  
• Seek out and add more information to the updated canvas on a regular basis
  
• Find an effective way to relay these insights and/or make them publicly available at PKU
  
• Outline and communicate key a “PKU I&E Status Quo” report to the relevant parties 

2.   'Form an I&E Faculty Advisory Board'

• Identify and link up PKU I&E faculty champions as student ambassadors
  
• Build stronger faculty affiliations to the School of I&E
  
• Invite the board to all brainstorming and feedback sessions
  
• Create an ecosystem matrix with the guidance of these mentors

3.   'Advocate for a Shared I&E Resource Library via the President’s office'

Propose to President Lin Jianhua the need for transparent/expanded access to I&E resources

• Send a memo/email outlining goals to share knowledge and coordinate across departments
  
• Perhaps build up a physical library of books and other resources inside the Global I&E Center
  
• Organize sharing sessions or assemble a taskforce of professors can contribute content

4.   'Host Sponsored Social Event to Celebrate Current I&E Achievements'

• ​Can be organized in its first edition as a launch of the School of I&E
• Provides a great overview and debrief of successful programs, initiatives, and courses
• A way to get decision makers, stakeholders, and other parties in the same room
• Can become a regular bi-annual event if there is sufficient budget available
