Through a generous support from the Ching Chiang-Kuo Foundation, we were able to recruit special education teachers and students in the Southern regions of Taiwan to participate in the training and learning of mathematics using Project MIND model. Come to learn how we venture higher and expanding the possibilities of distance learning through mathematics.
