課程概述

Adapting B.F. Skinner’s classic book in establishing the foundations of behavioral science Beyond Freedom and Dignity (1971), this course aims at examining the historical background and cultural elements behind health behaviors in order to investigate, consider, and debate on the humanly constructed “environment” as opposed to bio-physically, genetically, based conditions of critical social conducts. In this year, the course aims at studying “Across Time and Space”. Students taking the course are required to form a group and prepare an audio-visual presentation in class and submit a paper with 1000–2000 words at the end of the course.

本課程由行為科學經典,史基納名著《自由與尊嚴之外》出發,探討健康行為背後之歷史與文化「環境」。本年度課程將以“穿越時間與空間”為主題,通過閱讀相關歷史、文化與健康研究之文獻進行分組討論,以突顯人類行為所挾帶之時間向度,社會文化意涵,以及一般醫療與健康科學所關注之生理與遺傳性因素。修課同學需要分組並於課堂上進行一次多媒體報告以及撰寫一份1000 至2000 字的論文於課程完結時遞交。
 

課程目標
With the readings, discussions, debates, and group projects in the class, students are expected to:
1) Better appreciate the historical background behind common human conducts
2) Understand the socio-cultural factors of the topic “Across Time and Space”
3) Acquire the knowledge and skill to have an analytical view and ability to weigh the balance between bio-physical, genetic as opposed to socio-cultural factors of human behaviors.
藉課程中之閱讀、討論、辯論與分組研究,學生得:
1) 認識人類行為背後之歷史背景
2) 瞭解“穿越時間與空間”議題背後的社會文化因素
3) 具備分析性知識與能力以便平衡考量人類行為之生物遺傳性因素與社會文化歷史性考量
 
課程要求
In the class, the students are expected to:
(1) actively participate in small group discussions and the plenary discussion;
(2) prepare an audio-visual presentation;
(3) write a paper with 1000–2000 words;
