台湾生命教育的现状和发展

On Current Situation and Development of Life Education in Taiwan

生命教育应从家庭、学校、社会各方面入手,帮助儿童从小开始探索与认识生命的意义,尊重与珍惜生命的价值,热爱并发展每个人独特的生命意义,并与自然和他人建立美好的共荣共存的关系。近十年来,台湾生命教育的开展一直面临着社会支持度低、师资培育及教材编写与制作不匹配的挑战。如何应对这些挑战,同样值得大陆地区在推行生命教育时进行深入思考。

Life education, starting from family, school and society, helps children to explore and recognize the meaning of life, to respect value of life, to love and develop individual life meaning, and to establish a co-existent and co-prospering relation between them and nature and between themselves and others. In recent 10 years, life education in Taiwan has been facing challenges, such as low social support, ill matching between teacher training and textbook writing. It also deserves our thinking how to cope with these challenges when promoting life education in China's Mainland.
