There are more than one-third General Education Centers give Life-and-Death Studies Issues courses in colleges and universities in Taiwan. “Life-and-Death Studies” is derived from “Thanatology” (the scientific study of death). After integrating cultural customs and social contexts, it become a fairly broad knowledge specialized subject. Broadly speaking, the three core concepts-“Life”, “Existence” and “Death”- are the same important of Life-and- Death issues, but there are discords has arisen over this viewpoint in Taiwan scholars, so the main core of life-and-death studies is uncertain now. The researcher collected 94 syllabuses of Life-and-Death Studies courses in the Academic Year 97 to 100 in Taiwan, and tried to assay the teaching focuses and methods. The researcher give some advises, and hope the curriculum ideas can give consideration to both General Education and Life-and-Death Education. |
