My name is Lee,i’m a teacher of Communication University of China. Today I just finished a elective course teaching which is named “Blender basics”.
One year ago,i had a plan to push elective course for students of CUC,if having interest on it, everybody of CUC could choose the course to try their dream in 3D world.
This autumn,We have 30 students choose this course (because the seat limiting,we assign the max is 30). They come from different colleges of CUC,including animation,hosting,journalism,web design,italy language,politics,media management and others.
This may be the first time for Blender into the university courses in China mainland. we have more work to do for Blender Education in China.
In 2008,Nov, my site was promoted by BlenderNation, this site has changed to a production studio in Beijing, but i think in China,Blender Education is just beginning,i would try more ways for Blender developing in China mainland.
Thanks for Blender community and many friends support.

Thank you,Luo. i had sent my contacts to you gmail.please check it. -Lee.
This is wonderful Lee! It's nice to finally see Blender being taught in China. It must be difficult since a lot of the resources online at the time is all in English. Ethan Luo is just finishing the first Chinese Blender book, you should adopt it as your official textbook for next year's Blender course :)
hi,mike,i had contacted with Ethan Luo, i hope to see his new book asap.
I too am trying to start Blender training in Michigan (USA)- I have taught one beginner projects class one class through a grant from Eastern Michigan university and am seeing how to do more- good luck- any advice from your process or possible contacts would be appreciated.
