公民參與一向是民主國家相當重視的議題，也是民主社會運作的重要機制；在學理上，公民參與被視為是實現民主治理（democratic governance），即調解當代政治與行政之衝突的解方之一。因此，學者們紛紛針對民主國家中的公民參與現象進行研究，然而，過去的研究主題，不是聚焦於「政府為什麼不想讓公民參與決策制定？」，就是在探討「公民為什麼不願意參與公共事務？」。
但，隨著愈來愈多新興公民參與機制的常規化及生活化，如網路投票（i-Voting）、電子連署（e-petition）、審議式預算等機制的應用，當前公民參與的重要議題，逐漸轉化為「公民應該具備什麼樣的知識（knowledge）與能力（capacity），才能作為其參與公共事務的基礎？」。基此，未來如何培養公民具備良好的公民素養（civic literacy），進而促使其做出合宜的政策選擇（optimal policy choices），並履行其相對應的公民資格（citizenship），逐漸成為當代民主治理實踐的核心課題。尤其當世界多數國家都將投票年齡的門檻設在20歲以下，面對國內各界對公民權年齡限制下修的呼籲日益增多，未來新興世代的公民素養應如何培植，更是政府與教育界須未雨綢繆的課題。
因之，本課程奠基於公民參與、公民素養及民主治理等知識基礎，進一步納入電子化民主與審議式民主等新興理論之觀點，藉此辨識及梳理有助於體現「良善公民參與」的相關要素與具體條件，同時，根據研析內容的主題，進一步搭配實作活動及團體反思，讓同學能夠瞭解在特定的治理系絡與管理議題中，公民素養對於公民參與之實踐的效果與限制。
詳言之，本課程之規劃將以實作活動及團體反思為主，理論探討為輔，主要授課內容包括：
一、民主社會的治理邏輯；
二、民主社會的治理衝突；
三、民主社會的治理困境（governance dilemma）與制度解方；
四、公民素養的基本概念；
五、公民素養的權威面向；
六、公民素養的正義面向；
七、公民審議的實作活動及團體反思－過程與成效。※There are group activities in the first week of this course. Those who want to choose to take the course should be admitted. Thank you for your cooperation~
Citizen participation with a question that has always been a very important consideration by democratic countries and is also an important mechanism for democratic society to operate; in theory, citizen participation with a democratic governance, that is, one of the solutions to the conflict between contemporary politics and administration. . Therefore, scholars are contemplating research on the phenomenon of citizen participation in democratic countries. However, past research topics have not focused on "Why does the government not want citizens to participate in decision-making?" or are exploring "Why do citizens not want to participate in public affairs?" ”.
However, as more and more new citizens participate in the regularization and life-oriented mechanisms, such as the application of online voting (i-Voting), electronic organization (e-petition), review budgeting and other mechanisms, the importance of current citizen participation is the key to current citizen participation The topic is gradually transformed into "What kind of knowledge and capabilities should citizens have to be able to serve as the basis for their participation in public affairs?" Based on this, how to cultivate citizens to have good civic literacy in the future, thereby prompting them to make appropriate policy choices and fulfill their corresponding citizenship qualifications, which will gradually become the reality of contemporary democratic governance. core subjects. Especially when most countries in the world set their voting ages under the age of 20, the number of calls for the national community to be under the age of citizenship is increasing, how should citizens cultivate in the future a new generation of citizens be cultivated, and the government and education sectors should be in the rain. course topics.
Therefore, this course is based on intellectual foundations such as citizen participation, citizen cultivation and democratic governance, and further incorporates new theoretical discussions such as electronic democracy and review-based democracy. This will help the "good citizen participation" Related Elements and specific conditions, and at the same time, based on the theme of the content, further combine practical activities and group reflections, so that students can understand the effects and limitations of citizen cultivation on citizen participation in specific governance systems and management issues.
In detail, the planning of this course will focus on practical activities and group reflection, and theoretical exploration. The main teaching contents include:
1. Governance logic of democratic societies;
2. Governance conflicts in democratic societies;
3. Governance dilemma and institutional solutions of democratic societies;
4. The basic concept of citizen cultivation;
