Hi I'm Joann
I love animals, especially cats I think they’re the most gentle and cutest animal in the world. I also keep two cats at home. Me and my family love them so much because they are always following you anywhere and being affectionate to you.
The main topic of this semester is the “dog”. We have done many works to on. Especially on animal welfare. We tried to help stray dogs get adopted. It was a brand new thing for me. We made a research paper to survey some questions for the public and hopefully to change policy and help stray dogs can get a better life. I think the research was very difficult and complicated. From that, I’ve learned teamwork is really important, good teamwork can make things efficient.
During this semester, I really learned many things that I’ve never learned before. I like this kind of learning method, to experience everything personally can make me feel more real. For example, We’ve visited Ruifang animal shelter, after being a volunteer there, I think I have become braver because I have the ability to take care of animals. Although some of them aren’t gentle, I still tried hard to play with them, so I improved my patience too!
我很喜歡動物，尤其是貓，我認為牠們是最溫馴、最可愛的動物。我家也養了兩隻貓。我和我的家人都非常愛牠們，因為牠們總會一直跟著你而且還會對你撒嬌。
這學期的主題是“狗”。我們在這次的主題付出很多。尤其是動物福利。我們試圖幫助流浪狗能被領養。對我來說，這真的是完全沒有接觸過的東西，很新奇。我們寫了一篇研究論文，向公眾調查了一些問題，希望能改變政策，幫助流浪狗過上更好的生活。我覺得這項研究非常困難也很復雜。在這當中，我了解到團隊合作真的很重要，良好的團隊合作可以使事情更有效率。
這學期，我真的學到了很多以前沒有學過的東西。很喜歡這種學習方式，能親自體驗學習，讓我感覺更真實了。舉例，我們參觀了瑞芳動物收容所，當了志工後，我覺得我變得更勇敢，因為我有能力照顧動物。雖然他們有些不太好控制，但我還是努力的想接近他們，所以我也變得比較有耐心了！
