[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Seo Young-seo] Mokpo National University (President Park Min-seo) Education Innovation Development Institute (Director Oh Jang-geun) announced on the 16th that it operated the ‘2020 Teacher-Student Dining Together One Meal Project Week,’ which fosters warm communication and empathy, from the 9th to the 13th around the Dorim Campus.


The Teacher-Student Dining Together One Meal Project involved 58 teams and 347 participants, each consisting of an academic advisor and enrolled students. During the project week, participants shared a lunch meal to enhance intimacy through communication between teachers and students, provide motivation necessary for academic achievement, and create a space for harmony.


In one-line reviews written by teams participating in the project, various comments were included such as “The Teacher-Student Dining Together One Meal Project is love, an extension of the teacher-student bond, not a choice but a necessity, joy, and communication.” A student from the Department of Environmental Education who participated in the program shared, “Due to non-face-to-face classes with the professor, I couldn’t have deep conversations, but eating the Teacher-Student Dining Together One Meal together allowed us to have meaningful discussions, which was great.”



Oh Jang-geun, Director of the Education Innovation Development Institute, said, “This year, due to COVID-19, opportunities for professors and students to meet directly were limited, but I hope this Teacher-Student Dining Together program provides a chance for communication and empathy between professors and students.” He added, “We will continue to strive to create a Mokpo National University campus filled with empathy and joy.”
