Education is a century-old cause and an important cornerstone that affects the next generation. Teachers are the key force in the development of innovative schools. Only a good teacher can guide students on the right path and achieve the potential of every child. Under the reform of the new 108 Curriculum in Taiwan, Taiwan's education tends to be more competence-oriented teaching, and the TEAM Model Smarter Education Support System is able to integrate modern educational concepts and ideas, and use technology to make these ideas easier to practice in the classroom.
