這個學年課程的核心提問是：「如何建立一個永續的在地化農業與食物系統？」相關的問題包括：如何定義「在地」與在地需求？符合在地需求的農業與食物系統會以何種面貌呈現？需要克服什麼困難？如何永續經營？在建立在地食物系統的過程中，一所大學可以如何貢獻，發揮其影響力，促進其與在地社區的連結，以善盡其社會責任？
為了回答這些問題，這門課程在內容設計與執行上將與一般傳統大學課程不同。考慮到學生必須先具備基礎知識與掌握社會科學研究的基本技能，加上學生需要時間從事經驗研究，我設計、規劃了一學年、二門課的系列課程，以更充裕、更完整、更嚴謹的方式來教與學。但考量到學生實際的修課情形，雖然上下學期課程內容有所連貫，但在可單獨學習的課程單元之設計與輔助下，下學期才加入選課的同學亦能充分理解課程核心理念，不妨礙之後的學習。二個課程的學習重點都包含理解在地農業與食物系統的要義，農糧體系與現代社會的關聯，及如何建立一個永續且符合在地需求的食物系統。不同的是，為了利於學生學習與實習操作，第一學期的課程以位於東海校內的生態農場為例，嘗試如何將此農場與周遭社區連結，以發展成一個在地食物系統中的主要軸點；第二學期的課程則從點擴及到面，嘗試思考如何規畫、建立一個規模更大的在地食物體系。

The core question of this academic year course is: "How to build a permanent local agricultural and food system?" Questions related to this include: How to define "local" and local needs? What will the agricultural and food systems that meet local needs appear? What difficulties need to be overcome? How to continue to operate? In the process of establishing a local food system, how can a university pay, exploit its influence, promote its connection with local communities, and fulfill its social responsibility?
To answer these questions, this course will be different from the general traditional university courses in content design and execution. Considering that students must first have basic knowledge and master the basic skills of social science research, and the time students need to work on experience research, I designed and planned a series of courses for one year and second-party courses to teach and learn in a more abundant, complete and rigorous way. However, considering the actual coursework situation of students, although the content of the courses during the whole and second periods is different, with the design and assistance of the individual course unit that can be learned, students who only join the courses in the next period can fully understand the core concept of the course. You may wish to learn later. The learning focus of both courses includes understanding the essence of local agriculture and food systems, the relationship between agricultural systems and modern society, and how to establish a food system that is permanent and meets local needs. The difference is that in order to facilitate students' learning and practice operations, the courses in the first session take the ecological farm located at Donghai School as an example, and try to connect this farm with the surrounding communities to develop into a main point in an on-site food system; the courses in the second session will be expanded from point to surface, and try to think about how to plan and establish a larger-scale on-site food system.
