The School of Nursing at Yuan Ze University was invited to participate in the “Taoyuan International City – EdTech Tour” summer interdisciplinary elective program organized by the Taoyuan City Government Department of Education.
The university offered a themed course titled “The Impact of the AI Wave on Healthcare and Nursing Education,” which attracted students from multiple high schools and junior high schools (ninth grade) in Taoyuan. This initiative showcased the university’s proactive role in interdisciplinary integration and forward-looking education.
The course centered on AI applications, combining medical skills training with technological innovation concepts. It aimed to introduce students to the trends of artificial intelligence in diagnosis, preventive medicine, and smart care. The course was designed and taught by Associate Professor Ying-Hua Su from the School of Nursing at Yuan Ze University. She delivered accessible explanations of new knowledge at the intersection of AI and healthcare, hoping to guide students toward understanding the diverse landscape of future healthcare.
During the program, Chao-Tsung Hsia, a trauma surgeon from Far Eastern Memorial Hospital, taught an emergency skills session, guiding students through hands-on practice of smart CPR techniques and simulation competitions. Students worked in teams to complete emergency procedures, developing on-the-spot problem-solving abilities and experiencing the spirit of medical team collaboration. Organizers noted that the interactive “learning by doing” design helped make AI technology more tangible by embedding it in real healthcare scenarios.
A total of 32 students participated in the program. Many reported significant gains, saying their understanding of AI’s role in healthcare had greatly improved, while also leaving them with a strong impression of the School of Nursing. A student surnamed Wang from a Taoyuan high school shared: “This was my first time experiencing on-site teaching that combined AI with healthcare, and it made me look forward to the future of medicine.” Another student, Lin, said: “The hands-on CPR practice was memorable. I now better understand the precision and calm needed in emergencies.”
Ying-Hua Su, Director of the School of Nursing at Yuan Ze University, stated that the department had long upheld an educational philosophy of “intelligence, bilingualism, and technology integration.” She emphasized that the school would continue to deepen cooperation with government agencies and medical institutions, expand the scale and depth of interdisciplinary courses and camps, and help young people explore their potential and spark aspirations in the field of medical technology.
