Along with changes in the ways that humans record knowledge, learning methodology has already begun to move from traditional classroom
pedagogy’s fixed time and location toward digital learning’s flexible and diversified concept of variable time and location.
 
In following this trend, teaching Mandarin Chinese in Taiwan has also developed over the last half-century. To provide both teachers and learners with multiple, ample channels for studying Mandarin Chinese, while simultaneously cooperating with national policy to spread Chinese language education and cultivate top-rate teachers, National Open University has entrusted a special task force to establish the Chinese e-Learning Center, in the hopes that the university’s experiences and superiority in digital instruction and media production will transform methods of Mandarin Chinese education and teacher training.
