Course Features

Through historical images and other resources, students can gain in-depth knowledge of regional development and cultural diversity, cultivating their visual communication skills and cross-cultural understanding. Experiential learning takes place through field trips, simulations, and other activities. For example, visiting government institutions, courts, or social organizations to understand their operations and related issues. Such experiences enable students to gain a deeper understanding of civic rights and responsibilities, as well as relevant social development issues.

Additionally, they can explore nearby streets to further understand community development and changes, promoting awareness of social development.

  The high school Citizenship and Social Development curriculum also emphasizes students' social engagement and service learning. Students can participate in social organizations or volunteer service activities to understand social issues and engage in practical actions. This kind of engagement cultivates students' civic awareness and sense of social responsibility, as well as enhances their social participation and leadership abilities.
