教育目標

The purpose of this course is to use social media( 社交媒體) to explore social volunteering opportunities in our community. We will study the development of social networks(社交網絡) that use volunteering(志願者) to affect social change (社會變革) in Taiwan and the world. The students will begin with some reading in social networks(聯網), social capital(社會資本), volunteer theory(志願者理論), and other concepts that provide a foundation for sociological study of small groups and networking. After a theoretical/historical introduction, the course will be project-based (專題研習) in order to develop an understanding of the social process in community involvement (社區參與), especially using the power of social media. Students will complete four projects based on their research of community organizations(社區組織) such as non-profit organizations(非營利組織) or non-governmental organizations(非政府組織). In addition to studying community networks and using social media, students will also develop their English writing, speaking, discussion and presentation skills by preparing PowerPoint presentations to present to classmates as well as questions for discussion.
