本課程之目標在使修課學生：
1.瞭解社會創新、社會企業等相關概念，且非理所當然的理解這些概念，而是能對此類社會現象進行反思。
2.將組織社會學、經濟社會學、研究法所學相關概念實際應用，針對所選議題提出解決方案。
3.透過小組合作實際形成一個社會企業創業提案並於課堂中發表。
由以上目標，在培養社會系學生關懷社會、批判與獨立思考能力的同時，亦培養團隊合作、解決問題、企劃提案等有助職涯發展的能力。

課程內涵
本課程為學年課，分上下二學期進行，本次選修為105學年度第一學期課程。為方便同學了解整體課程的設計，因此上下學期課程皆先在此說明，各週進度則先說明上學期內容。
整體而言，課程分程二條軸線，其一為概念的講授，範圍包括組織理論、經濟社會學、研究方法、管理學等領域，以社會企業、社會創新為現象端的依據，挑選合適的概念於課堂中講授。
概念的內容方面，上學期主題包括社會企業、社會創新的概念介紹、運用研究方法找尋社會需求與創新的可能外，並介紹Osterwalder等人所推廣的商業模式分析方式。其中，由於本課程需要同學調查社會需求，同時做出創業提案報告，因此我使用此一商業模式做為教學主題。因為此模式涵蓋了許多社會學、管理學相關的概念，如利害關係人，合法性、價值、文化等，也納入了許多商管常運用的分析方式，因此合於本課程所需。再者，其圖表化的表現形式，方便同學小組討論、腦力激盪，也可使同學們的創業提案內容簡潔快速溝通。
下學期的概念講解則包括募資、發表技巧等較實務的概念，同時，也包括了對本課程內容的各種反思。在實務概念方面，主要是配合同學創業提案的進度，在上學期深入瞭解社會需求、提出基本的商業模式架構之後，下學期開始討論如何維持財務的平衡、如何募資與發表等。反思方面，儘管社會企業、社會創新等名詞，在近年成為焦點，但我認為做為一個社會系的學生，很重要的一個部份，便是對各種常識、理所當然的想法進行反思。因此，在學期中後段，將討論相關概念的發展、引發的正反批評等。希望透過本課程，讓同學不僅能瞭解社會創新、社會企業等概念，更能對此有所反思、形成自己的看法與意見。

The goal of this course is to enable students to:
1. Understand social innovation, social enterprise and other related concepts, and do not understand these concepts for granted, but be able to reflect on such social phenomena.
2. Practical application of relevant concepts learned in organizational sociology, economic sociology, and research methods, and propose solutions to selected issues.
3. Through group cooperation, actually form a social enterprise business proposal and present it in class.
Based on the above goals, while cultivating sociology students' caring, critical and independent thinking abilities, they also cultivate teamwork, problem solving, planning and proposal and other abilities that are helpful for career development.

Course content
This course is an academic year course and is divided into two semesters. This elective is the first semester course of the 105 academic year. In order to make it easier for students to understand the overall course design, the courses of the previous and next semesters are explained here first, and the progress of each week is explained here first.
Overall, the course is divided into two axes. One is the teaching of concepts, covering areas such as organizational theory, economic sociology, research methods, management, etc. Based on the phenomenon side of social enterprise and social innovation, appropriate concepts are selected and taught in the classroom.
In terms of conceptual content, last semester’s topics included an introduction to the concepts of social enterprise and social innovation, the use of research methods to find social needs and innovation possibilities, and an introduction to the business model analysis methods promoted by Osterwalder and others. Among them, since this course requires students to investigate social needs and make a business proposal report, I use this business model as the teaching topic. Because this model covers many concepts related to sociology and management, such as stakeholders, legitimacy, value, culture, etc., and also incorporates many analysis methods commonly used in business management, it is suitable for the needs of this course. Furthermore, its graphical representation facilitates group discussions and brainstorming, and also allows students to communicate the content of their entrepreneurial proposals concisely and quickly.
Concept explanations in the next semester will include more practical concepts such as fundraising and presentation skills, as well as various reflections on the content of this course. In terms of practical concepts, it is mainly to cooperate with the progress of students' entrepreneurial proposals. After in-depth understanding of social needs and proposing a basic business model structure in the last semester, we will begin to discuss how to maintain financial balance, how to raise funds and publish, etc. in the next semester. In terms of reflection, although terms such as social enterprise and social innovation have become the focus in recent years, I think that as a sociology student, a very important part is to reflect on various common sense and taken-for-granted ideas. Therefore, in the middle and later stages of the semester, the development of related concepts, the positive and negative criticisms that have arisen, etc. will be discussed. We hope that through this course, students will not only understand concepts such as social innovation and social enterprise, but also be able to reflect on them and form their own views and opinions.
