为增进外籍教师对中华传统文化的了解，7月4日，人力资源处会同国际合作与交流处、外国语学院组织了一次外籍教师文化体验活动，邀请来自7个国家的10余名外籍教师参观浙江省博物馆之江新馆，并亲身体验中国非遗手工竹编制作。

To enhance the understanding of Chinese culture and history among foreign teachers, the Human Resources Department Office, in collaboration with Office of Global Engagement and the School of International Studies, organized a visit to the Zhejiang Provincial Museum (Zhijiang) and Zhejiang Intangible Cultural Museum on July 4, 2024. Over ten foreign teachers from seven countries participated in this event.

首先，外籍教师们来到浙江省博物馆之江新馆先后参观了《浙江一万年》通史陈列、民俗文化馆、富春山居馆。在英文解说的生动讲解中，浙江地区各个历史时期最具代表性的文物遗存一一展现，从史前考古到中华文明，从稻作起源到百年红船，让人仿佛穿越了时空的长河，亲历了这片古老土地的辉煌与变迁。参观期间，外籍教师们也展开了热烈的讨论，他们对于每一件展品背后的故事和历史意义都表现出浓厚的兴趣。

The trip aimed to provide international faculty members with insights into Chinese history, culture, and traditions as documented in the museum, beginning with artifacts from the early dynasties. Special guide was given to the historical development of Zhejiang province and the cultural heritage particularly from the Yue Kingdom, Qin Dynasty, Han Dynasty, Song Dynasty and others dynasties or kingdoms with preserved historical technologies. The museum tour was led by a professional guide from the Zhejiang Provincial Museum. The presentations were highly interactive, with many foreign teachers actively engaging by asking questions about the preservation and documentation of artifacts from over 5,000 years ago.

随后，外籍教师们来到了浙江省非物质文化遗产馆进一步体验了非遗手工竹编制作。在传承人耐心的指导和鼓励下，他们认真细心地挑选竹材并动手编织。经过将近一个小时的努力，每位外籍教师都完成了自己的小满竹筐。他们兴奋地展示自己的作品，互相交流心得，现场洋溢着欢声笑语。

Additionally, the teachers came to the Zhejiang Intangible Cultural Museum to explore traditional weaving techniques and handicrafts, and even had the opportunity to weave a bamboo basket themselves. Many participants expressed that such hands-on experiences are crucial for gaining a deeper understanding of Chinese culture.

活动结束后，外籍教师们纷纷表示通过本次参观体验活动了解了很多历史知识。来自光电科学与工程学院的Endale Tamiru Basore老师表示非常感谢学校组织本次活动，通过这次活动，他了解了中国数千年来的历史，是这些历史奠定了如今现代化的中国，活动十分有趣，对他来说是一次新奇的体验。

After the event, the foreign teachers expressed that they learned a lot of historical knowledge through this visit. Mr. Endale Tamiru Basore from the School of Optical science and Engineering said that he really thanked for the informative visit to the Zhejiang Provincial Museum, where the millennia-old history of the Chinese people had established today's modern China. The visit was enjoyable and interesting and every moment with a series of new historical sites was the first experience for him.

    本次活动不仅丰富了外籍教师的文化生活，也为他们提供了深入了解中国历史和文化的机会。未来，人力资源处将协同相关职能部门继续开展多样化的外籍教师活动，创造更多交流与体验的平台，提升外籍教师在校工作生活的归属感和融入度。

This activity not only enriches the cultural life of foreign teachers, but also provides them with an opportunity to know more about Chinese history and culture. Organizers of this event conveyed their commitment to arranging more such activities in the future. These initiatives are designed to help faculty members master Chinese culture more easily and foster motivation for further study, enhancing their interaction with colleagues and the Chinese community.
