Competence-based teaching focuses on connecting real-life situations and student experiences and encouraging active participation in learning to thereby facilitate the integration of knowledge, skills, and attitudes, and promote practical application. Designing competence-based textbooks is a crucial aspect of the 12-year national education curriculum reform. This study focused on the core subjects taught in secondary schools and conducted a questionnaire survey to assess the attention level and performance of textbook editors and reviewers with respect to designing competence-based textbooks and identifying items for improvement. The main findings are as follows. 1. All surveyed editors and reviewers emphasized the following dimensions of textbook: knowledge system > learning support > initiative > inquiry > practice. 2. Several indicators within the dimensions of initiative and inquiry were strongly emphasized and competently executed by the reviewers but not by the editors. By contrast, the indicators that were strongly emphasized and competently executed by the editors but not by the reviewers mostly belonged to the dimensions of knowledge system and learning support. 3. The editors and reviewers both prioritized the dimension of inquiry for improvements. 4. In the fields of liberal arts, mathematics, and science, the editors and reviewers performed poorly in the dimensions of inquiry and practicality. Furthermore, inquiry was prioritized more in mathematics and science than in liberal arts subjects. |
