中小學課綱的研修審議問題分析

Analysis of Problems in the Development and Review of Curriculum Guidelines for Elementary and Secondary Schools

2014年11月28日教育公布十二年國民基本教育課程綱要總綱，國家教育研究院及其他相關單位旋即進行領域課程綱要研修，提出各領域課綱草案。2016年5月，立法院修正高級中等教育法和國民教育法課綱相關條文，建立課綱審議新制，規定課綱草案由中央主管機關常設課程研究發展機構及其他教育機構訂定，送課審會審議通過後實施。課審會的組成和運作因而產生很大變化，審議過程中爭議無窮。本文探討新課綱研修審議的制度、特色及問題，討論其中之利弊得失，指出新制爭議最大的是學生審課綱、審議過程政治化、外行審內行、課綱修訂決策缺失、整體機制難以運作，進而提出改進建議供各界參考。

"On November 28, 2014, the Ministry of Education announced the Overall Program of the 12-year National Basic Education Curriculum Guideline. The Curriculum Development Committee, National Academy for Educational Research (NIER), and other related units, immediately wrote drafts of curriculum guidelines for all domains. In May 2016, the Legislative Yuan amended the relevant provisions of the Upper Secondary Education Law and the National Education Law, established a new system of curriculum review, to examine and approve the drafts of new curriculum guidelines, which shall be implemented after the approval. However, the operation of curriculum review was not smooth, the controversy in the review process was endless. This paper explores the new curriculum revision and review system and its characteristics and problems, and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of the system. This paper also points out that the biggest disputes in the new system are the student review, the politicization of the review process, the layman review, the lack of policy for each domain curriculum revision, and the operating difficulty of overall review mechanism. And then, suggestions for improvement are put forward for reference by related sectors in society."
