教育部外派華語教師蘇浚生老師任教於美國賓州斯克蘭頓大學亞洲研究系。2022年春季學期於校內舉辦亞洲新年活動工作坊,蘇浚生老師帶領工作坊內容包括:筷子文化介紹、筷子挾物競賽、農曆新年傳統習俗等,師生親自參與體驗春聯書寫及日本摺紙,該工作坊結合新年節慶在校園內推廣亞洲文化,頗受當地媒體重視及報導。

The Asian Studies Program at The University of Scranton held an Asian New Year Festival and Workshop in spring semester, 2022, for students and faculty to learn and experience how different Asian cultures and traditions celebrate Lunar New Year. The Chinese teacher from Taiwan, Mr. Peter Su, indicated that Lunar New Year is one the most significant holidays in Asian countries, such as Taiwan, Korea, Singapore, China, and Vietnam.  Particularly, the Year of Tiger symbolizes the energy and spirit of the king of animals.

The workshop started with a welcoming speech by Dr. Ann Pang-White, Director of Asian Studies and Professor of Philosophy at The University of Scranton. Following her introduction, two Asian instructors presented on Asia’s chopstick culture. One of them was Mr. Peter Su from Taiwan. After enjoying some Asian food, attendees participated in a chopstick competition and listened to two presentations about how New Year is celebrated in Taiwan, Japan, and China. Participants also wrote Spring Festival couplets using Chinese calligraphy and made Japanese origami related to the Year of the Tiger.
​
“A tiger represents the king of animals in Chinese mythology. So, it’s also very fitting this year because it shows courage and braveness, perseverance. And so it’s good for us to have that spirit to fight COVID-19 and to end the pandemic so we can keep ourselves optimistic,” said Dr. Ann Pang-White when interviewed by a local TV station.
