The Chinese language Intern Ruiling Feng gave a presentation at the Keck Center on September 5 to explain and celebrate 中秋节, the Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival.
Students and faculty enjoyed her explanation of the origin and reason for the holiday as well as a taste of the traditional moon cakes provided by the Department of East Asian Languages and Literature.
Ruiling is one of six interns who provide help to language students at Colgate. Look for posts from all the language interns on our blog as well as future cultural events hosted at the Keck Center.
I saw the demonstration pictures. These seem more appealing. I thing it is best way to teach a foreign language because there is a need to create interest in the students and it can do it. Students will be interested and motivated.
