The core concept of rule of law in a democracy country does not merely put emphasize on the duty of individuals to obey laws and give punishment to those who violate the them; it also stresses that government offices should be restricted by law and order which see human rights protection as its purpose. As for the country's culture formation of Rule of Law and the operation of democratic constitutionalism, they are determined by whether the nationals have the consciousness of Rule of Law. The teaching purpose of legal general curriculum in colleges, therefore, should be cultivating students' consciousness of Rule of Law with human rights and democracy as its heart and foundation. In order to achieve this goal, the concept of course design is supposed to bring the basic principle of Constitution into course design, lecture, and discussion, making students clearly understand the value of the existence of laws and orders, its system, and function. Enable them to ponder over legal issues with the ideas corresponding that Constitution ensures human rights, limits government's power, and protects public welfare. When it comes to teaching, one should avoid laying particular stress on narrating abstract legal theory. Cultivating students' basic abilities to objectively judge legal issues in their lives with the application of the legal knowledge they learn from discussing legal current affairs or special topic in the class. By mutual discussions and questioning between students and lecturers, train the students' ability to introspect and expound criticism. |
