本課程以正向心理學（Positive Psychology）為專業學科核心，結合社會情緒學習（Social and Emotional Learning, 以下簡稱SEL）的系統性架構，設計成一門「不只教知識，更陪伴成長」的學習課程。課程關注的不僅是正向心理學的研究發展與趨勢，更重要的是學生如何在真實生活中，逐步培養能支持自己一生的內在能力。
「正向心理學」提供了關於幸福、優勢、意義與復原力的科學理論與實證依據，而 「SEL 」則讓這些理論能被學會、被練習、被活出來。因此，本課程的最大特色，在於將 SEL 五大核心能力：自我覺察、自我管理、社會覺察、人際關係技巧與負責任的決定，有意識地嵌入正向心理學的學習歷程之中，讓學生不只是理解理論，而是能將所學轉化為日常生活中的具體行動。

在教學設計上，課程將透過案例教學法、問題導向學習（Problem-Based Learning, PBL）、小組對話、反思書寫與實踐練習，引導學生認識自我、建立自信、學會換位思考與理解他人、發展健康的人際關係，並在面對挑戰與不確定時，逐步累積屬於自己的心理資本。課堂中將保留充足的時間進行練習與小組對話，同學課後的反思與成長記錄尤為關鍵。因為真正重要的學習，往往發生在「慢慢想清楚」與「彼此好好對話」的過程中。

此外，本課程在內容設計上，將適度引用聖經經文與聖經故事，作為生命教育、價值反思與心理成長的敘事素材之一。這些文本將做為案例教學與PBL教學法之討論案例，以故事、隱喻與反思資源的方式呈現，而非宗教要求或信仰規範。課程尊重每一位學生的信仰背景與生命立場，學生可依自身感受自由詮釋，無須具備宗教背景，也不以信仰認同作為任何評量依據。相關內容亦將清楚呈現在授課大綱中，讓學生在選課前能充分理解與自主選擇。

整體而言，本課程期望成為一段支持與陪伴的學習旅程，幫助學生在學習階段建立更穩定的自我價值感、更溫柔而堅定的內在力量，並學會如何把所學的幸福與善意，活在生活之中、帶進關係之中。

因為，快樂是可以學習的，內在力量是可以被培養的。

而你在這門課中的每一份努力、反思與成長記錄，都將轉化為更強大的心理資本，陪你走得更遠。
Be bright. Be you. Be someone’s light!

This course takes Positive Psychology as the core of the professional discipline and combines it with the systematic structure of Social and Emotional Learning (hereinafter referred to as SEL) to design a learning course that "not only teaches knowledge, but also accompanies growth." The course not only focuses on the research development and trends of positive psychology, but more importantly, how students can gradually develop inner abilities that can support themselves throughout their lives in real life.
"Positive Psychology" provides scientific theories and empirical evidence on happiness, strengths, meaning, and resilience, while "SEL" allows these theories to be learned, practiced, and lived out. Therefore, the greatest feature of this course is that it consciously embeds the five core SEL competencies: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, interpersonal skills, and responsible decision-making into the learning process of positive psychology, so that students not only understand the theory, but can transform what they learn into concrete actions in daily life.

In terms of teaching design, the course will use case teaching methods, Problem-Based Learning (PBL), group dialogues, reflective writing and practical exercises to guide students to understand themselves, build self-confidence, learn to think differently and understand others, develop healthy interpersonal relationships, and gradually accumulate their own psychological capital when facing challenges and uncertainties. Sufficient time will be reserved for exercises and group conversations in class, and students’ reflections and growth records after class are particularly critical. Because truly important learning often occurs in the process of "thinking things over slowly" and "having a good conversation with each other."

In addition, in the content design of this course, biblical verses and biblical stories will be appropriately quoted as one of the narrative materials for life education, value reflection and psychological growth. These texts will be used as discussion cases for case teaching and PBL teaching methods, presented in the form of stories, metaphors and reflection resources, rather than religious requirements or belief norms. The curriculum respects each student's faith background and life stance. Students can interpret freely according to their own feelings. There is no need to have a religious background, nor is faith identity used as the basis for any evaluation. Relevant content will also be clearly presented in the course syllabus, allowing students to fully understand and make their own choices before choosing courses.

Overall, this course is expected to be a learning journey of support and companionship, helping students establish a more stable sense of self-worth, a gentler and firmer inner strength during the learning stage, and learn how to live the happiness and kindness they have learned into their lives and bring them into relationships.

Because happiness can be learned and inner strength can be cultivated.

And every record of your efforts, reflections and growth in this course will be transformed into stronger psychological capital to accompany you further.
Be bright. Be you. Be someone’s light!
