- My passion for research is rooted in the research questions, and I am enthusiastic about to find out whether answering these questions would have implications for the real community or world scenario. I also believe critical thinking would help us to be a thinker and come up with new ideas, theories and projects that would advance the field and telling us what we are supposed to do, eventually to add new knowledge. Besides of critical thinking, I believe that we should keep an open mind, which is also one reason I have been doing cross-discipline studies. As I believe that interdisciplinary and cross disciplinary collaboration is a good way to expand our knowledge of some certain research questions, but also develop new ideas and some interesting points.
- Teaching
-
- I consider our life is a life-long learning process. Teaching allows me to fulfill what I believe and treat my students the same regardless of ethnic, age, and gender. I believe greater diversity will bring fresh ideas into our studies. Teaching is also the way to pass on the knowledge, to discover the new unknown. Therefore, I wish students to appreciate the power of knowledge and think critically. My optimal goal in teaching and learning practices is to help all students to achieve their greater potential and to succeed without lowering standards. In additional to teaching the principles of finance, I have also a few objectives as an educator for the students. 1) Actively engage in the learning process. 2) Self-study ability. 3) Finance is not an isolated subject; finance is interconnected with business, economics, even the culture and should be addressed in context. Students should understand the relevance of finance to their life. To help achieving the above objectives, different teaching and learning methods have been implemented. I always believe that students can learn more and achieve their greater potential within a friendly learning and teaching environment. Overall, finance is an interesting subject in our learning journey. Understand finance would help us to understand how our world is working. Enjoy.
