II. The purpose of this cross-school teacher community is to invite teachers from different schools to form cross-school teacher communities through a regional base model. These communities will collaboratively address teaching issues, develop research plans, refine teaching methods, and improve learning outcomes. This will help teachers apply for the Ministry of Education Teaching Practice Research Project and upgrade their teaching practice qualifications.
