專案簡介 :
This core of the course is helping you to plan, conduct, present and write your own research paper. You will be much more informed about scientific writing and knowledge as well as improve in your critical thinking. In order to do this, this class has two components. First (3 units) is a series of lectures, class discussions, group activities and demonstrations based on the required textbook designed to illustrate what makes sound social science research. Second (2 units) is working with you through more "hands-on" applied research on Time Bank. I will work closely with you from draft to revisions to improve your overall writing skills and analytical thinking. I believe students learn best through doing. Thus, as much as possible, this will be an experiential course. Students engaged in a comprehensive overview of both quantitative and qualitative research methods used in social science research, along with an understanding of the ethical considerations and other challenges involved in good research design. Students also engage in an original research project on Time Bank and Social Exchange. Lastly, they learn to write utilizing a professional set scientific standard
成果報告 :
這堂課透過學習研究的方法,將課本上的理論進階應用到現實生活,透過所學,以及與台中市時間銀行及東海婦女會的配合,完成一份完整的研究報告。從一開始了解時間銀行的運用,得知到台中市有許許多多不受年紀所限制的高齡志工們,彼此透過互助、交朋友的態度將自己本身的力量投入到社會中,到後來直接與東海退休教職員面對面一對一訪談,訪問他們在退休後的安排以及生活,及最終的報告書寫,將受測者資料配合所學,用統計學整理下來,變成一些數據,再進而將數據應用到報告書,這所有的過程,是一個非常具有挑戰性的任務。但學生們透過一個學期來努力不懈的向蔡亞平教授的請教、不斷的修正改進,最後完成了一份份完整的研究報告,對學生而言可說是非常的有成就感。
