本課程前半著重於從生態學的角度來檢視語言教育的各歷史階段所提出理念的優缺點。
後半著重於語言學習與自我認同的研究範例閱讀

The first half of this course focuses on examining the advantages and disadvantages of concepts proposed in various historical stages of language education from an ecological perspective.
The second half focuses on reading examples of research on language learning and self-identity.

課程中從多元角度探討語言之於人類的功用，並探討現行的第二語言教育、外國語教育的目的與方法應該如何進行。
另外，也閱讀語言教育、語言學習、研究方法相關之論文，理解語言教育的研究課題，重新思考語言教育、語言學習應有的狀態。

The course explores the function of language to human beings from multiple perspectives, and discusses how the current purposes and methods of second language education and foreign language education should be carried out.
In addition, I also read papers related to language education, language learning, and research methods to understand the research topics of language education and rethink the state of language education and language learning.
