Communication Practice Curriculum Promote the Transformation of Life Awareness in Vocational Junior College Students: Thinking, Feeling, Action, Wishing Pedagogy and Visualization Analysis |
| 英文摘要 |
This study investigates the effectiveness of a communication practice curriculum in enhancing life awareness among vocational junior college students in early childhood education, grounded in the educational framework of thinking, feeling, action, and wishing. Forty-eight fourth-grade students participated in a six-week instructional intervention. A total of 465 formative assessment entries and 48 reflective documents were collected. Text mining techniques using MATLAB were applied to visualize students’ communication development through word clouds, keyword frequency analysis, clustering, and thematic mapping. The research aimed to: (1) visualize key communication terms; (2) compare keyword frequencies between formative and summative assessments; (3) conduct cluster analysis aligned with the thinking–feeling– action–wishing framework; and (4) analyze the transformation of communication vocabulary. Results revealed notable improvement in students’ communication abilities, a shift from technique-driven interaction to self-aware reflection, and a sequential emphasis on the keywords “thinking,” “action,” “feeling,” and “wishing.” The curriculum effectively supported a behavioral transition from impulsive communication to intentional, reflective engagement. Based on these findings, it is recommended that educational institutions integrate structured, emotionally grounded communication modules into professional development programs to foster deeper life awareness and interpersonal growth among early childhood educators. |
