About HTISC

Our missions

 

1. This college is a non-profit organization solely dedicated to advocating that it is beneficial for older residents to understand the truth, cultivate a taste for life, and have a colorful and abundant life.

2. Improve the overall health of the individual’s spirit, soul and body, and promote an optimistic and enterprising life and the spirit of endless learning.

3. Encourage "not to serve others, but to serve others" to participate in community services.  

 

HTISC provides an excellent learning place and opportunity for the elderly to "live and learn until old age". It is registered as a non-profit educational institution by the Texas government, so donations can be tax deducted.

 

The institute's belief and purpose is to pursue an abundant life through the integration of "living and learning". Classes adopt a course selection system, and the courses include educational, interest and practical categories.

 

With inspiring multilingual (Mandarin, Taiwanese, English, etc.) curriculum and faculty, there are two semesters in one academic year, with classes every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. 

 

We sincerely welcome all elders regardless of ethnicity who agree with the purpose of our mission to step out of their nest and enter a harmonious, active and loving family. HTISC welcomes you to join the team of "Learning with Fun, Living Well" and we appreciate your charitable donations to benefit the lifelong learning of elders.

 

Message from the principle - Samuel Hsu

Since its establishment in 2003, HTISC has provided diverse and practical courses. We encourages the elders to learn with the purpose of "live until you are old" and "the sea of learning has no boundaries and there is no end to learning". Let the elders learn in a variety of ways from the special promotion courses of language learning, health care, physical and mental activation, artistic creation, musical talent, and computer information to promote physical, mental and spiritual health. Our elders enjoy being in the classes of chorus, painting, Tai Chi, flower arrangement, airway calligraphy, piano, flute, dance and handicrafts. By showing their learning achievements at the end of each semester, they can find the touch in life from the diverse courses and have a sense of belonging to the group.

 

The concept of lifelong learning has existed as long as human history. Japan has a "lifelong study" and American scholar J. Dewey also proposed that education and learning are lifelong processes. In addition to studying at the HTISC, you can make many friends and organize one-day tours every month. The Lifelong Learning Program of the U.S. federal government has pointed out that lifelong learning is a process in which individuals continue to develop their knowledge, skills and attitudes throughout their lives. It is of great help to vitality and has a positive impact on individuals and society.

 

The meaning of lifelong learning:

1. Learning is a lifelong process.

2. The channels and methods of learning are diverse and flexible.

3. Learn to emphasize the spirit of autonomy.

4. The content of learning is all-encompassing, and it is an education that develops the whole person.

5. Learning is a right, not a privilege.

 

We need to pursue the opportunity of lifelong learning. People often use "wait a moment" as an excuse to wait until I have time to learn. This is an obstacle to lifelong learning. Lifelong learning comes from a person's invisible inner curiosity, which leads to learning. Interest. Although we are getting older, our youthfulness at heart is a reflection of the "old age" that never stops taking an interest in everything.

 

We are currently in the "afterglow of the sunset" and we should seize the learning opportunities in the good times so that our lives will be full of harvest. According to your own interests and needs, you can carry out planned (entering HTISC) or unplanned (instantly you think you are interested) learning and extensive activities. In order to pursue a better way of survival, please come to HTISC.
