l  Purpose of establishment

Due to previous policy negligence, it was found that there was a general shortage of teaching talents when it was necessary to fully implement Taiwan studies-related courses in primary and secondary schools in the past few years. In view of this, the Ministry of Education has approved the establishment of some courses related to Taiwan literature and culture studies in recent years. Tie. However, due to the limited number of additional departments and the time-consuming cultivation of talents, there is still a shortage of teachers in primary and secondary schools within a short period of time. Therefore, there are many teachers who can only be filled by short-term training. The purpose of this class is to strengthen the professional knowledge of these teachers and provide training for further research of teachers who already have the basics.

 

l  An experimental center that creates a new paradigm for Taiwan studies master's programs

The relevant institutes established in the past all took a single major such as literature, language or human beings as the basis of curriculum design, and few of them could also cover other fields. With the help of professionals in Taiwan studies from many related institutes of the School of Humanities and Social Sciences of the school, this class specially designed this interdisciplinary integration-oriented on-the-job master's degree class for Taiwan studies teachers.   This design, as far as we know, is the first of its kind in the academic circles of Taiwan.

In terms of geography, the departments approved by the Ministry of Education in recent years are more concentrated in the north and south. In the Taozhu Miao area, there are no other channels for further study except Central University, the Hakka College of Yangming Jiaotong University, and the Institute of Taiwanese Language and Education on the NTU Campus of our school. The establishment of this class can provide a good choice for many front-line teachers in due course

 

l  Teaching characteristics and abundant learning resources

This class not only provides the strong cross-disciplinary faculty of Tsinghua School of Humanities and Social Sciences, but also takes Taiwanese literature and Anthropology training as the professional core, and combines the cross-field spirit of linguistics, sociology and history.   And through strict curriculum requirements and institutional arrangements, we will cultivate truly first-class Taiwan research seed teachers, and lay a solid foundation for the rooting of Taiwan's subjectivity.

 

l  Book landscape

This special class combines the excellent academic research atmosphere of the School of Humanities and Social Sciences and the best library facilities among universities in the country. We hope that through the establishment of this class, the school will truly become a research and teaching center for Taiwan studies.
