大學社會責任跨域課程規劃歷程與策略──以三所學校USR課程為例

Planning Process and Strategies of University Social Responsibility Interdisciplinary Curriculum–The Examples of USR Courses in Three Universities

大學社會責任實踐計畫所注重的人才培力與在地連結，核心價值在透過跨域課程推動，來培養學生社會實踐能力，並回應地方需求。政策立意雖好，但如何在學校教學制度脈絡及系所專業考量間取得平衡，進而提出系統性課程，是USR 跨域課程最為困難之處。本研究嘗試從三所不同USR 發展階段學校之跨域課程規劃歷程進行調查，並歸納整理USR 跨域課程規劃遭遇之困境，及其因應策略與課程發展模式。
本研究發現，在USR 初始階段，或重視專業技能養成學校，可從全校整合學程角度規劃，以通識課程為基礎，搭配系所實作課程來規劃；而在USR 萌芽階段，可以USR 主責系所課程來衍生規劃，以既有社會參與實踐課程為基礎，結合跨院系相關課程進行規劃；而在USR 深耕階段，則可以院為單位，整合各系所課程，下設跨域學程，並搭配USR 計畫連結推動。最後本研究亦根據研究所得提出相關建議。

The USR Program in Taiwan focuses on talent cultivation and local connections, and its core value is to cultivate students' social practice ability and respond to local needs through interdisciplinary curriculum. Although the intention is good, how to carry it out without disrupting the balance between universities’ instruction systems and professional knowledge learning at the department level, is the most challenging part. This study attempts to investigate the process of interdisciplinary curriculum planning of three universities which happen to carry out USR projects of three different stages, namely, the setup stage, the startup stage and the expansion stage, and summarizes the difficulties encountered in their USR's interdisciplinary curriculum planning, as well as their coping strategies and curriculum development models.
This study found that, for universities implement the setup stage USR projects, or universities attach great importance to development of professional skills, they can plan from the whole university perspective, which means having general education courses as the bases, and complementing them with practical courses at the department level. For universities carry out the startup stage USR projects, departments which are in charge of the USR project can use existing social participatory courses as basic courses, and combine them with related courses across departments. For universities implementing the expansion stage USR projects, colleges within the university can play key roles. Courses from different departments of a college can be integrated and restructured to form various interdisciplinary programs. These programs are linked and promoted through the USR project. Finally, this study puts forward relevant suggestions based on the above findings.
