本課程以台灣中部的林試所蓮華池試驗林為上課地點，為期十天，前半在東海大學進行室內課程與校園四周的實作，後半前往蓮華池進行田野調查。課程中規劃了動、植物及人文多樣性之介紹。棲地浮游藻類、蕨類、維管束植物植群、昆蟲、蜘蛛、淡水魚類、兩爬、鳥類、及哺乳類多樣性之實地調查與資料分析，使學生對台灣地區之特徵、氣候形態、動植物相及人文相關議題有初步的了解；並藉實地之觀察、操作及參訪使學生體驗生物多樣性之調查及分析方法和淺山環境所面臨之問題及破壞。
同時在課程中要求學生規劃與實施個人小型研究計劃，而在課程結束前進行口頭報告，課程結束後進行繳交詳細之書面報告。
This course takes Lin, a test test at Huachi, a forest test in central Taiwan, as the pre-class location. It lasts for ten days. The first half of the course is conducted at Donghai University and the work around the campus, and the second half is to go to Huachi, Living in for field surveys. An introduction to the diversity of movement, plants and humanities was planned during the course. The actual survey and data analysis of the diversity of phytoplankton, ferns, ductile plant groups, kennels, spiders, freshwater fish, two-climb, birds, and mammals can give students a preliminary understanding of the characteristics, climate conditions, animal and plant species and humanities related issues of Taiwan; and through the observation, operation and visit of the actual site, students can experience the investigation and analysis methods of biological diversity and the problems and destruction faced by the clean mountain environment.
At the same time, students are required to plan and implement personal small research plans during the course, and oral reports are made before the course is completed, and detailed written reports are made after the course is completed.
藉實地之觀察及操作，使學生對亞熱帶地區之特徵、氣候形態、動植物相、亞熱帶生物多樣性之調查及分析方法有初步的了解，並藉實地參訪使學生對亞熱帶地區所面臨之問題及破壞有進一步之體驗。
Through the observation and operation of the local area, students have a preliminary understanding of the characteristics, climate conditions, animal and plant species, and the diversity of Asian hot spots, and through the local area, students have a further experience of the problems and destruction faced by Asian hot spots.
