院成立於民國44年,歷經50餘年的銳意發展,目前設有國文、英文、歷史、地理、臺文等5個學系、翻譯和臺灣史2個獨立所,以及全球華人寫作中心和國際臺灣學研究中心。除臺史所僅設碩士班,其餘6個系所均設有碩、博士班;目前專兼任教師近250人,學生約2500餘人。

本院早期以培養優秀中學國文、英文、歷史和地理教師為鵠的,臺灣中學語文和史地教育的實踐與成功,本院提供不可磨滅的貢獻。近年來,本院隨師範體系轉型而調整發展方向,除維持中學師資培育的優勢外,也積極朝理論研究和實務操作等面向前進。目前,本院各系所師培生的教師檢定通過率平均在95%以上;非師培生在文化、傳播、文學、應用史學及環境災害、地理資訊系統等領域發展,也已卓然有成。

本院各系所教師的研究能量極為豐富,參與國內外學術活動相當活躍。根據論文數量、引用次數等指標所作的學術力評比,本院居人文領域全國第2名。各系所之間,無論是教師的教學與研究,或學生的生活與學習,都能相輔相成、榮辱與共,彼此渾然一體,足堪「為師、為範」而無愧。

    九五高中地理暫綱的課程決定與理念之研究
    (2009) 楊傑文; Chieh-wen Yang
    課程改革後,課程決定議題在課程界已有相當多的討論,然而多著重於教室現場與學校層次,較少及於國家層次的討論。本研究視九五地理暫綱的制訂為國家層次課程決定與課程發展之過程,使用文件分析與半結構訪談法,探討其決定內容、決定因素及制綱者所秉持的課程制訂理念。在課程決定部分,地理科內部區分專案小組與諮詢小組,專案小組決定整體架構與討論修正,諮詢小組決定細節草案。最後決定權則在於專案小組,並且小組之間仍存有溝通問題,反映權威、知識與決定實鑲嵌於課程制訂過程中。無論專案小組還是諮詢小組,影響其決定因素皆相當多元,包括:學習者情況、學科專業、時數限制等。然而專案小組較為著重學科整體面向,而諮詢小組則較專注於學科教學面向。此外,綱要內容雖未受政治干預,然而整體制綱環境仍處於行政與政治的結構中,並使制綱者感到限制。在制綱者的理念方面,雖小組討論已達成共識,並制成綱要,然彼此理念並未相當一致,因其背景、個人因素有別。其理念亦反映我國地理教育受國際地理教育與當代教育思潮影響。研究建議教育部應當更重視課程綱要之修訂,給予充分時間,成立或善用學科常設機構從事相關研究,加深學術地理與學校地理之共識。

    Changing Perspectives of Geographical Education in Singapore: Staying Responsive and Relevant
    (地理學系, 2013-11-??) Geok-Chin Ivy Tan
    Investment in education has always been a key national strategy to ensure Singapore's economic competitiveness and growth. Before the turn of the century, in 1997, a major educational reform with the official vision of Thinking Schools, Learning Nation (TSLN) was introduced by the then Prime Minister at the 7th International Conference on Thinking. The aims of Thinking Schools, Learning Nation were to develop critical and creative thinking, instil lifelong learning passion, and promote nationalistic commitment in the young. To support the TSLN vision several initiatives were implemented to promote thinking skills, National Education, and information technology in schools.Sequentially, to enable schools to implement these new initiatives another thrust called Teach Less, Learn More (TLLM) was introduced by the Ministry of Education. This paradoxical phrase is a call to teachers to be less dependent on the use of rote learning and to move away from teaching for tests and examinations. Instead, they are to engage their students with more studentcentered pedagogies to prepare them for the challenges of the 21st century. The focus of Teach Less, Learn More was on the transformation of teaching pedagogies in order to promote more active learning on the part of the learners. To support all these new thrusts and initiatives, the curriculum review committee boldly recommended a content reduction in all subjects thereby freeing up more curriculum time for more studentcentered pedagogies in the classrooms.Against this background, geographical education in Singapore has undergone critical transformations to be responsive and relevant to the needs of the changing educational scene inSingapore since the turn of the century. This paper will critically discuss the changes in terms of geographical content, pedagogy and assessments and also highlight the challenges in geographical education in Singapore as a result of these changes.
