Higher education is going through dramatic transformation globally. Education is regarded as social infrastructure which is significant to the development of theculture and society of a country. ‘Education' refers to the process of giving and receiving systematic instruction at schools or universities, whereas ‘learning' is informal and usually related to cultural transmission. In the past ten years, the government of Taiwan set up various projects to forge the connection between universities and their local societies. These projects establish courses with the intention of bringing students to engage in practical study within actual society, working with people in local communities. However, I argue that, due to changes in the goals of education, a new infrastructure needs to be established. Without awareness and the establishment of a new system, the goal is not likely to be achieved. |
