From May 26-28, 2015, the second Liwa Book Fair was held at the Training Base for International Chinese Teachers at the East China Normal University in Shanghai.The OUC Chinese Language Centre (MyEChinese) was invited to exhibit its independently researched and developed materials, teaching resources and distance teaching services to teachers and students in the field of Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language. In this exhibition, the intelligent teaching cloud space for individual teachers, launched for the first time by MyEChinese Intelligent Teaching Platform, drew visitors interest.

To promote the application of online Chinese teaching and its transformation in international Chinese education, MyEChinese international Chinese teaching platform has released its intelligent cloud space for individual teachers. The space integrates enrollment information and online teaching with the management of students and resources. Teachers who tried it out said that the online Chinese learning curricula were very suitable for students and could greatly improve teaching efficiency. At the same time, the platform allows access to teacher training courses. The abundant resources available on the platform were highly praised by the volunteer teachers who are about to work overseas.

During the book fair, the OUC Chinese Language Centre was invited to provide training to the 2015 Confucius Institute volunteer teachers in the selection of Chinese language online courses and the use of intelligent Chinese teaching cloud space. Its useful Chinese teaching curricula and materials were welcomed by the young teachers and students who were there. The three core online courses, Chinese Panorama, Easy Chinese and Chinese Cultural Exploration were the most popular. Easy Chinese in particular appealed to many of the volunteer trainees for its potential usefulness in helping them improve their skills abroad.
