本課程主要目標在訓練學生瞭解科學研究方法的內涵，期能藉由課堂講授，讓學生研習本課程後能對各種研究方法進行之方式，以及應如何有系統地進行研究有更深入的瞭解；此外，藉由經典文獻閱讀，希望能讓學生瞭解一個好的研究應包含哪些程序及作法；最後，藉由讓學生實際執行一項研究，讓學生體認完整的研究流程，實際運用課堂知識，以培養紮實的科學研究能力。

The main purpose of this course is to train students to understand the connotation of scientific research methods. In order to teach in class, students can learn more about the ways of conducting various research methods after studying this course, and how to conduct research systematically. In addition, through reading classics, we hope to let students understand what procedures and practices should include for a good research; finally, by allowing students to actually perform a research, students can understand the complete research process, and actually use classroom knowledge to cultivate practical scientific research capabilities.
