課程概述 |
This course is an English-only class designed for all the foreign as well as Taiwanese NTU system students. Graduate students are the main target of this class, but senior undergraduate students are welcomed, too.
East and Southeast Asian countries, are all facing great challenges with regards to fast population ageing, in particular, Taiwan, China, Hong Kong, Korea, Japan and Singapore. 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 fundamental social policies related to 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. |
