A decent list, and yes, the idea stealing one is definitely correct.
I'm a teacher. We were told, at a meeting a few weeks ago, that the western staff were not utilising the ideas and creativity of the Chinese staff enough, so we should consult with them more, and they should give us all their ideas for lessons.
The staff responded by bringing me some 'new ideas', all of which had been taken from watching my western colleagues. My colleagues have also been given advice on new classroom activities, which look strangely familiar to me...
The extra tip I would give is: don't attempt irony or sarcasm. It probably won't translate and could backfire i.e. "no, of COURSE I have nothing better to do on my Saturday night that a promotions activity for the school"... "oh, great, the event starts at 8pm and we'll pick you up from the office."
