體現與體驗－－「自然書寫」主題教學的通識教育意涵

Embodiment and Experience-On the Implications of 'Nature Writing' Curriculum in Generation Education

本論文旨在通過「體現」與「體驗」兩個核心概念，闡述「自然書寫」作為國文課程的教學主題所實現的通識教育意涵。由於本論文的問題意識乃從通識教育現場出發，筆者採取質性研究法，結合理念與實務兩方面進行描述、分析、詮釋。全文共分為五節：第一節是為「前言」，說明筆者基於「地方」不同於「地景」的問題意識，規劃以「自然書寫」為國文課程教學主題的緣起；第二節「體現──自然書寫的實踐向度」，從當代生態倫理思潮、身體美學與文化地理學的視野，以「體現」為核心概念，討論臺灣當代自然書寫的實踐精神及其內涵；第三節「體驗──自然書寫課程的規劃」，說明以「體驗」作為行動學習的核心概念，落實於課程目標、教學策略、課程大綱、作業設計、評量方式等方面的具體規劃；第四節「再體現──自然書寫課程的行動學習成果」，說明學生學習此一課程後所發生的改變，檢討自然書寫課程實施所達到的具體成果；最後，「結語」總結歸納「自然書寫」課程所實現的通識教育意涵。
