課程概述 |
This course is an English-only class designed for all the foreign as well as Taiwanese NTU students. Graduate students are the main target of this class, but undergraduate students are welcomed, too.
East Asian countries, including Taiwan, China & Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, and Singapore are all facing great challenges with regards to fast population ageing. Since social policy is an important field of knowledge and practice, all these countries have tried to use social policy to guide the nations’ preparation towards the aged future. The course will give an introduction to the foundational social policies related in ageing. The course will use multi-methods of teaching, such as lectures, small group discussions, field visits (the government, NGOs, and communities), and student project presentations.
|
|
課程目標 |
a. The students will understand population ageing in East Asian countries and globally.
b. The students will develop capacity to do ageing social policy analysis and policy practice.
c. The students will have field experiences and know how ageing social policies are done and materialized in Taiwan.
d. The course will facilitate students from various countries to interact with each other and share their own experiences and ideas related to ageing societies.
