最大区别在于时间较紧，收获很多中国与拉美之间的关系问题

课程时间更紧凑，利于更好地学习复习知识

I really like our professor of this class. He said that he didn\'t mind his students speaking some kind of \'Chinglish\'. The most important thing was our opinion or thinking instead of pronunciation or grammar. That\'s why I can threw my nervous away and talked to all the classmates and the professor bravelly.

短期接受强度更大的训练。

The classes were all taught in native English and gave us plenty of after–class materials to read, and all the communication in class was in Englis, which helped me be customed to this English communicative evironment.

The instructors are all experienced professionals who are able to share with the class years of research findings and provide all with expert guidance not only in the specific field but also in academic thinking and writing. I am grateful for what BFSU ISS gave me -- a great opportunity to look at the world from a new angle while at the same time engaging in intensive discussion with both the professors and fellow students.

拓展了知识面，学习了外国的思维方式

暑假期间得到学习

我觉得该课程与学期间课程最大的区别在于它涉及的是一个十分具体的话题：尼采哲学思想入门。老师带领着我们梳理了其思想的发端和之后的发展。学期间的课程一般涉及范围较广（比如德语文学导论），不会对一个具体的知识点做如此细致、长时间的分析。 我感觉最大的收获是我大致了解了尼采哲学思想的发展脉络。

The atmosphere is very open for discussion. And the material is very useful.

different types of works

I know how to work with other classmates.

全英文

We get more chances to think by ourselves without teachers telling us the answers as usual.

这门电影课的内容十分新颖，教授知道我们看了五六本名著以及由其改编的电影，专业地分析了电影叙述的视角，为我打开一个新领域的大门。

对新学科的认知

a variety of media were used in class and the course was much more intense

I think this course strongly encourage us to use our reason and logic to give a judgement between many opinions. And the teacher mainly used his own knowledge system rather than professional books to give a class.

We analysed differences between family business and non-family businesss. It broaden my horizon. It makes me think more about successful companies. It provides me a way to decide what kind of companies I would like to work in.

I learned the Irish accent and tried to understand the native speakers\\\' English. The time management is much more free. Discussion part matters a lot. Less students,so that The Prof. can give anyone his comments and feedback more specifically.

the interaction between the students and the teacher and the use of power point, videos and presentation to make the lesson more interesting

This course opens my eyes for a new area, because I don\'t know much about religion before. It really helps me to think a lot and it\'s interesting to listen to something exotic and discuss with teachers.

难易适中，概念性的东西比较少，学到的知识都很实用。最开始对于上小学期的课程还是有点紧张的，毕竟是把差不多一学期的内容压缩到了两周嘛。但是实际上课的体验还是比较好的，考试内容也都是讲过的、会在相关工作中用到的实用技能（虽然挖的坑比较多）。老师真的很风趣幽默平易近人，讲的东西都很容易理解，也很鼓励大家讨论（夸过好几次北外的学生比一般中国学生敢说话）。因为我自己院里的专业课基本都是学术性很强的，有大量的阅读材料要读、大量的论文要写，所以上这样一门实用性的课程感觉还挺新鲜的。

In this course students from different countries communicate and discuss together, which is beneficial to the understanding of different cultures and the subject of the course. And in this course students were encouraged to participate in discussion and share their own critical thoughts.

最大的不同在于，这门课更加私人化，更加没有公认的铁律来指导学习，更加自由。因此最大的收获就是，如何用自己的思维去定义与理解不同的艺术。

I took the Art%Mapping cultures course given by Dr. Powell. It was amazing, interesting and totally new for me. So many activities such as taking a sound walk, drawing sound maps and exploring our invisible cities were enjoyable and challenging! I love Ms Powell\'s teaching style, which is much different from the traditional Chinese way. This course has stimulated my potential of drawing and creating something like artworks. I have learned to observe the world with more attention and found much beauty in my life.

Professor Sanders also introduces us something economic facts about North Korea and South Korea. It is the first time that I know about that.

In the ISS course Introduction to Mass Media taught by Ms. Lidia, I\'m really encouraged to learn useful techniques such as written journalism and media project making etc, which help me a lot in exploring the new fields into media and communication. In regular courses during semesters, I\'m learning mostly for getting a higher score in the final exam, which is not enough for me to study positively.

I am glad I took a wonderful class during the past two weeks. I did a lot of reading and writing in the class. Dr. Kesling is a funny, humorous and respectful teacher who teach us not only knowledge on book but the way to think. I think I kind of get the idea what is the good life. This class really benefited me a lot!

I’m really glad to take this course because I learned a lot about how to choose and achieve a good life. Dr. Kesling always gave us various and vivid examples to explain his oppinions and let us express ours. I learned to state my thoughts clearly in his class. He also used many other useful ways and tips to help us get a better understanding of the topic. Thanks to him, I gained a lot different kinds of methods to think and to speak during the two weeks. It’s a unique class for me and Doctor K

Dr.K is really a good professor. He presented the course in a quite clear way with a detailed syllabus and all the needed materials. I want to highlight that he didn\'t tell us what to read roughly, but selected into specific pages with all his notes. We could imagine how much previous work he had done in order to give us that great two-week lecture. Thank you Dr. K and I have really learn something and think something about good life. By the way, Dr.K\'s own life is so inspiring that I think hi

Great professor with fascinating course.

The Professor is very Kind and the Course is very interesting. I enjoyed the two weeks in Summer Session. The Course was well organised and the reading materials were carefully selected and well prepared. I have read a lot, learnt a lot and understand the western Philosophy About the good life.
