Especially, he shared 21 diverse teaching and learning methods grouped into categories such as career orientation activities, theoretical teaching and learning, practical teaching and learning, self-study (including online platforms, AI, ChatGPT, etc.), scientific research activities (research projects), internship and graduation-related activities, real-world practice (real combat), and community service activities.
