In 2013, Far East University conducted an interdisciplinary service -learning project in the Fang-Yuan Art Museum, a local museum in Tainan suburban. The project was grouped by four courses, Life Aesthetics and Museum Narration, Navigation Technology for Museum, Creative Design and Exhibition, and Green Consumption, by faculties from Dept. of Applied Language, Dept. of Information Management, and Dept. of Digital Multimedia Arts. The faculty members, in partnership with the museum curator and its neighboring community, con-constructed a one-year long service-learning project to meet museum's needs and courses objectives. The English version of museum narration, the APP for museum navigation, and the creative souvenir were developed. This paper will present this model of interdisciplinary service-learning, as well as courses objectives, common learning activities, advantage and disadvantage, and further development.
