Exchange students bound for Korea

10 JUNE 2008

Eight Charles Sturt University (CSU) teacher education students leave this week for a one month exchange program with Hannam University at Daejeon in central South Korea. This is the second annual exchange of teacher education students with Hannam University. “The exchange emphasises the University’s commitment to providing enriching experiences for its students so they are better rounded and better able to work professionally in classrooms anywhere,” said  Professor Toni Downes, Dean of the CSU Faculty of Education. “Three weeks are spent on a cultural tour and one week is spent doing a placement in a local school. The students have to apply to go and are chosen by the Faculty based on the criteria of good academic results combined with the right personalities to be representing the University,” Professor Downes said. There are six students from the CSU Bathurst Campus, one from Wagga Wagga Campus and one from Albury-Wodonga Campus. They leave Australia on Sunday 15 June and return in the middle of July.
