A weekly conversation between a Water-End rural school and the world's biggest goals.
Based in Irvine, California, Edward holds a Master's from UCLA and is a member of YOUNGO, the official youth constituency of the UNFCCC. Since 2023 he has been a constant presence at the global youth climate forums — GCOY, COY, and LCOY — and as the International Ambassador for LCOY Taiwan, he coaches students to connect their personal interests to the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
Before the weekly Monday class began, Edward came down to Dacheng in person to meet the students, walk the campus, and feel the township that would become his Monday classroom. The video below is the school's full record of that first visit. 在每週一遠距課程啟動之前,Edward 老師親自走訪大城國小——認識孩子、看校園、感受這個將成為他週一教室的鄉。下方影片是學校為這次參訪拍攝的完整紀錄。

A web-based practice tool built specifically for Edward's Monday SDGs class. Each card pairs an English word with its part of speech, a Chinese translation, an example sentence, and the SDG it connects to. Students can flip cards to self-test, or switch to quiz mode for graded recall. The tool works on phones, tablets, and classroom computers — and saves progress locally so students can pick up where they left off. 這是專為 Edward 老師週一 SDGs 課程打造的線上練習工具。每張卡片包含英文單字、詞性、中文翻譯、例句,以及對應的 SDG 編號。學生可以翻卡自測、也能切到測驗模式做隨堂評量。手機、平板、教室電腦都能用,進度會自動存到瀏覽器,下次繼續。
The 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals are the global agenda for ending poverty, protecting the planet, and ensuring peace and prosperity by 2030. Edward's Monday class pulls the goals into reach for a Dacheng 10-year-old — one English word, one example sentence at a time. 聯合國 17 項永續發展目標,是 2030 年前消除貧窮、保護地球、和平繁榮的全球行動框架。Edward 老師的週一課把這些目標拉到 10 歲孩子的視線——一個英文單字、一個例句、慢慢來。
