The purpose of this study was to innovate the issues-centered approach in order to make this approach more compatible with the school context in Taiwan. This study applied collaborative action research in a fifth-grade social studies class for a school year. The team of the action research was composed of the researcher, an elementary school expert teacher, and a professor familiar with the issues-centered approach. The curriculum was organized around the following issues:” building the freeway from Su-ao to Hualien issues” ”immigration issues” ”global warming issues” “race issues”. The important results of this study included: First, the inclusive approach is more appropriate for the school curriculum context than the additive approach. Second, the teaching models should be more flexible to respond to issues nature and students’ learning styles. Third, associating issues with students’ projects makes students experience in-depth learning and develop inquiry ability. Fourth, applying internet to the issues-centered approach breaks through the limits of space and time. Finally, collaborating with researchers with different background promotes diverse thinking.
