Some learning is not about showcasing results, but about being heard, understood, and truly seen. On December 24, the Celebration of Learning brought the TCS community together to share students’ learning journeys in many forms — from classroom presentations, exhibitions, and club showcases to the vibrant performances at the afternoon Talent Show. In every time slot and every detail, we could see the dedication, effort, and growth behind each student’s work. We since

【TCS Experiential Learning Friday | G7-G9 One Day Adventure Outdoors at APA Ecological Park】

This OAEP expedition was led by a professional outdoor education team headed by Assistant Professor Hsiao Ju-Hsuan, with Founder Andy joining the journey and walking alongside the students. The convoy then set off. Some slept.

【TCS OAEP WEEK 3 |Getting Ready for the Challenge—and for Ourselves】
On January 9, the final week before departure began. And this OAEP journey had already become a challenge—long before the mountain. In the classroom, it’s not just about gear and routes, but the quiet inner struggle: “Am I really able to get through this?” For first-time G10 students, teachers begin with mindset— helping them voice their fears, unpack the unknown, and gradually understand the environment, weather, and risks ahead. For experienced G11 students,

【TCS Experiential Learning Friday | G9 Life Design Lab】
In last Friday’s Life Design Lab, specially designed for our Grade 9 students, learning began with self-understanding—planting the first seed for the future. The session opened with a simple yet powerful metaphor: the future we imagine is often filled with uncertainty and confusion, but the future we actually live is built step by step, starting from the present. Through group activities and dream board creation, students explored what they enjoy, what they value, the k

【TCS Experiential Learning Friday | G8 AI Statistical Thinking】
This AI Statistical Thinking course was led by Yi-Yuan Lee, PhD, and had been taught to G9 students the week before. At first glance, it might sound like a course that is highly technical and academically distant. But once you step into the classroom, the experience feels entirely different. While the core topic remained the same, the lesson was thoughtfully adapted to suit students’ learning styles. Compared to the more steady G9 group, the G8 class featured shorter

【TCS Experiential Learning Friday | G8 A Day of Exploration at the Library】
This visit to the Taoyuan Public Library became a journey of slow discovery. Students moved through the space—from the Green Spiral and reading areas to themed shelves and quiet corners. One highlight was the exhibition Rediscovering Taiwan: Chen Cheng-po’s 130th Birthday Anniversary Exhibition, where students paused to observe colour, composition, and the stories rooted in land and history. The open atrium, known as the “Tree of Life,” left a strong impression. In a sp
