Chih-Jung Ku

Ph.D. candiate
Chih-Jung Ku is a second-year Ph.D. student at the Department of Technology Application and Human Resource Development, College of Technology and Engineering, National Taiwan Normal University, Taiwan. I graduated from National Taiwan Normal University with a bachelor's degree in Engineering in 2015 and a master's degree in Education in 2020. In 2015 , I got my teaching certificate and started delivering technology education in secondary schools. My recent research interests are technology and engineering education and iSTEM teacher education. During my time at National Taiwan Normal University, I enjoyed working with peers to accomplish research programs and tutoring other postgraduate students with their academic assignments. I had two years of experience assisting teacher training programs, helping in-service technology teachers enhance their content knowledge and teaching skills, And sharing my lesson planning and teaching experience with pre-and in-service technology teachers. I was responsible for the National Technology Competition in 2019 , leading 30 postgraduate students to organize 9 portions of the competition (Ab1 out,0 students participated in) . At ICTE online Conference 2021 (held in Taiwan) , I was honored to be selected as one of the organizing committee leaders. At that time, I planned 12 outstanding keynote speeches as long as 100+ oral and poster presentations with a team consisted of twenty colleagues. With the tutoring and leading experiences, I improved my communication skills and learned how to collaborate with different groups of people. FUTURE OBJECTIVE I have been participating in ITEEA for two years (2022 will be the third year) . I learned a lot from many outstanding experts, scholars, and educators when I attended the annual conference and had some discussions with other attendees. In Taiwan, we released a new curriculum on technology education in 2018 , which has been widely discussed recently. However, our professional association has negligible impacts on technology education development, and it lacks cohesion. Besides, only a few people invest in the research field of technology education. Therefore, I hope to be a professor in the field of technology and engineering education to expand the influence of our professional association and be committed to academic research on technology education. I believe with the strong support of the professional association and progress in academic research performance; we are able till training more technology teachers to cultivate students' technological and engineering literacy.
