Ulsan Office of Education.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Trainee Reporter Hwang Du-yeol] The Ulsan Office of Education conducted an on-site training tour of village education communities in the Namhae area of Gyeongnam.

The Ulsan Metropolitan Office of Education operated the "2021 Colorful and Diverse Village Schools" program from the 23rd to the 24th.

More than 20 village teachers participating in the training experienced cases where declining regions were revitalized through education.

The training confirmed that the foundation of a sustainable and healthy community lies in education.

The exploration training involved visiting sites where the local community and schools are pursuing a path of mutual growth, listening to cases, and seeking ways to apply the successful examples of the Namhae region to Ulsan’s local characteristics.

On the first day, lectures were given on the theme "Dream and Vision of Namhae Geumsan Education Village" by Principal Yeo Tae-jeon of Sangju Middle School, and by Director Lee Jong-su of the Namhae Sangju Donggodongrak Cooperative, which operates the after-school care program "Imagination Playground."

On the second day, a free discussion by type was held on how Ulsan’s village education communities could create connections with schools based on the village exploration results.

The city education office has conducted year-round training for village teachers to strengthen their capabilities.

A village teacher who participated in the exploration training said, "It made me reflect on the role I must play as a village teacher to create an educational village and an educational city, Ulsan."
