課程概述

We define landscape identity as how we interpret our relationship with the places we are attached. As the central concept in landscape studies, landscape identities penetrate our daily experiences. For generations growing up in urban and industrial environments, our landscape cross-culturally intertwines with artificial elements. For example, in A Sense of Place, A Sense of Time, J. B. Jackson suggests new vernacular landscape for suburban Americans by examining trailers, parking lots, trucks, loading docks, and suburban garages. In other words, most of the time, when we think about landscape identity, we think about cultures as driving forces that manipulate people’s perceptions of ecological systems.

Remarks
1.This course is scheduled in Sessions 3-4 Wednesday morning. However, there will be field work classes that take entire Saturday or Sunday in April.
2.Field work classes will depend on the spring tea harvest situation and Pinglin Elementary School patterned arrangement. For spring 2024, we plan to arrange the one weekend in mid-April. However, the tea harvesting will highly depending on the local weather. 

課程目標
Instead of interpreting landscape identity from urbanized cultural lenses in this class, we examine our surroundings through how ecological factors integrate cultural values to reformat landscapes. After we reveal our own home identities via “hometalks” in first stage, we target three stages of landscape case studies. We examine how the symbolic ecological factors shape the landscape identities of local societies and influence the global perceptions of the places.
For the three stages, we conduct place-based learning methods and focus on the Pinglin rural tea region in New Taipei City, Taiwan. First of all, we explore that Pinglin tea cultural landscapes and tea industries via field study, while we combine the spring tea harvest event within our class in April. Secondly, we investigate the carbon emission of the Pinglin District and the tea industry to understand the relationships among the tea-town lifestyle, tea ecotourism and the tea-agro productions. Finally, we study similar cases worldwide to understand transcultural and ecological local practices globally.
In the new normal era of globalization and network societies, our daily lives have already been exposed to various cultural and ecological influences where we encountered people with various cultural heritages. Our travels to, or migrations to, different societies have experienced different customs, attitudes, histories, and environments. Various cultural and ecological voices emerge at many scales of landscapes. On a global scale, the mixture of socio-cultural and ecological systems within our daily spaces, indeed, impacts our socio-behavior patterns and how we shape our built environments. This course investigates these phenomena theoretically and analytically through online and offline fieldwork, hands-on modeling, readings, lectures, film watching, discussions, and presentations. 
課程要求
(1)Students have to participate in lectures, field studies, reading discussions, group activities, and project presentations.
(2)Students have to conduct and write individual documentary experiences and final reports. Participation and attending class is mandatory and it is critical for your grades.
(3) Fieldworks and workshops are essential in this class. They weight as important as traditional reading texts for us to understand diverse landscapes, lifestyles, as well as their identities.
(4) Most of the class materials will be in English or other major languages. This course will be delivered mainly in English format. Please do not hesitate to contact Prof. Chang, if you have any question. The contact info is: shenglin@g.ntu.edu.tw
