台日社会現象を読み解くための文化教育試案–普遍性と共通性に気づかせるTAE ステップの応用–

解讀台日社會現象的文化教育試案──達到認知普遍性和共通性效果的TAE步驟之應用（A Draft Plan on Culture Education for Understanding Japanese and Taiwanese Societies: An Application of the TAE Steps to Notify Universality and Commonality）

在學習外語的過程當中，對於學習語言背景的文化社會等現象也相對重要。此點雖然經常被提起，然而，學習相異社會時，往往只著重在自我文化社會與對方的不同。換言之，由於將兩個社會文化相對化的關係，難以達到真正的異文化理解。亦即，若不設限於僅比較雙方社會文化的不同，而去著眼於，文化和社會的普遍性和共通性的話，方可說是真正的了解異文化。本論文以TAE步驟（Thinking At the Edge Steps）的概念，企圖擺脫以往文化教育中被相對化的文化觀。並藉由跳脫相對化文化觀的做法來檢視文化觀的重製。本論文以研究所學生為對象，讓學生留意台日現代社會和文化的諸多現象中之細節。由TAE步驟的實行可以讓學習者發現到，台日現象中的特徵和共通點。其結果除了讓異文化中的相異點浮現之外，更可以讓生活在同時代的學習者的發現自我體驗，並得以具象化。 Numerous literature has pointed out importance of having an intimate acquaintance with cultural and social phenomena in foreign language learning. Focusing only on difference between one society and other, however, leads only to relativisation of them, leaving learners only with comparison and remembrance of differences between them. Learners need a deep thought on universality and commonality of cultures and societies to overcome the situation that they only heap knowledge without actual experience on the foreign society, and it should be the only way to make the knowledge on Japanese society being on their own.This paper inspects a possibility of departure from the reproduction of relativised view of culture due to usual culture education, utilising the concepts of the TAE (Thinking at the edge) Steps. Graduate students of Japanese language are guided to make an attention to the details of contemporary phenomena of culture and society in Taiwan and Japan, then to observe the phenomena and practice the Steps to notify various features and commonality between the two societies. As a result, the student's understanding of other culture goes beyond clarification of ”difference”, and we observe an effect of realising their awareness to ”self-experience” in this era.
