In addition to showcasing the colorful and long-standing Chinese culture to Turkish students, the team members also designed several flipped classrooms. From their Turkish counterparts, students from the team in Tsinghua University, learned to sing the Turkish song “Bana Ellerini Ver”, experienced Ebru, which is a traditional Turkish art of marbling, and learned to dance the Turkish dance Govend. There are no borders and boundaries for the spreading and understanding of different cultures. The flipped classrooms not only helped the team members to feel the collision and integration of different cultures, but also showed the world the inclusiveness of Chinese culture.
