In collision with the current education system– Seventh grade students’ alternative learning style

文字-A A +A

Rescued from the verge of collapse, Zhanghu Elementary and Junior High School of Ecology in Yunlin County is Taiwan’s first publicly financed and managed eco-school. No one imagined that the school’s foundation subsidence crisis triggered by the Morakot disaster would manifest into a golden opportunity.

With a pledge of financial support from Chang Yung-Fa Foundation (張榮發基金會), the school was relocated, reconstructed and given eco-school status by the county government, allowing the newly named Zhanghu Elementary and Junior High School of Ecology, Taiwan’s first public eco-school, to rise from the ashes into a relaxing center of learning. 

School president, Chen Qing-zhen (陳清圳) said that Zhanghu Elementary and Junior High School of Ecology is distinguished by its duel-track schooling system, using not only knowledge and logic, but also developing the capacity of students to think independently. An “Independent Travel” program implemented by the school has allowed a group of seventh, eighth and ninth grade students (13 to 15 years old), assisted by a small number of lower grade students (10 to 12 years old), to independently plan a travel program, after which the students shared experiences of their hometown heritage with classmates.

What’s more, this group of kids carried out their own fundraising activities and volunteered at Taoyuan’s The Carpenter's House Caring Center (木匠之家) – a center assisting handicapped people find work opportunities – in exchange for lodging. Through the “Independent Travel” program, the kids have witnessed a different kind of living, and gained rich life experiences.

衝撞現行教育體制~國七生的另類學習

雲林縣立樟湖生態國民中小學是台灣第一所公營公辦的生態中小學,一度瀕臨廢校的樟湖生態中小學,因莫拉克風災引發地基塌陷,沒想到危機成為轉機,由張榮發基金會認養異地重建後,縣府將樟湖國小改制成樟湖生態中小學,讓學校浴火重生為舒適的學習殿堂。

校長陳清圳指出,樟湖生態中小學的發展特色,採知識邏輯、自主能力培養雙軌並行。學校規畫了「自主服務旅行」,讓七八九年級學生為主、國小部高年級學生為輔的學生,自行規畫、實踐一場旅行、並分享成果、回鄉傳承經驗。而這群孩子們自行募款、選擇來到桃園木匠之家擔任志工換宿,木匠之家是輔助身心障礙者就業的團體,孩子們在此生活、學習,旅程收穫豐富。
