British Art History in the US: My Time at Yale
I received the 2022/23 Fulbright Senior Research Grant and visited the Department of the History of Art at Yale University between February and August 2023 (see the cover photo where I am in front of the departmental building).
波士頓學術研究與文化體驗
沒想到我真的有機會使用到這個開場白,真心感謝Fulbright提供這一年的研究資助,讓我在專業領域與文化生活,增加許多新的體驗並豐富我的人生閱歷。
臺灣人號稱美國三大佛教學校,我來到普渡(Purdue)大學朝聖了!
非常榮幸能獲得2022-2023 Fulbright Senior Research Grants (傅爾布萊特資深學者研究獎助金)的支持,前往美國Indiana 州West Lafayette城市的Purdue University進行國際合作交流與美式生活體驗。此次搭乘的飛機為長榮航空,到達Chicago的O’Hare Airport (Terminal 5) 時為4/24的晚上九點,因為太晚,所以先入住附近的Holiday Inn Chicago – Elk Grove 飯店,進行自我防疫隔離,兩天後(4/26)再到交通車程約兩個多小時的Purdue University 報到,並調整時差。
本次計畫前往Purdue University的Mitchell E. Daniels, Jr. School of Business (之前叫做Krannert School of Management) 的目的,主要是與Jen Tang (唐正)教授討論相關研究的議題。
做照顧、做家庭:台裔美人與母國年邁父母以資訊和通信科技為媒介的照顧交換
本研究從移民與他們留守家庭的觀點,探討跨國家庭的照顧交換,這尚未受到相關文獻大量的關注。過去的幾十年間,遷移的女性化現象增進學界對於移民家庭的研究。Bryceson和Vuorela(2002)提出跨國家庭的概念,以涵蓋移民和非移民家庭成員。儘管存在地理距離,跨國家庭成員可以維持他們的關係,並創造集體的幸福感和共存感(Baldassar, 2008)。
後疫情時代美國大學遠距課程跨國招生策略-德州3所大學個案研究
既榮幸又幸運能獲得Fulbright獎學金,讓我這個土生土長的台灣人在工作與進修多年後,有機會於2018年8月到2019年7月到美國哈佛大學公共衛生學院擔任訪問學者
My Taiwan Journey: Reflecting on the Past, Embracing the Present, and Imagining the Future
My clearest memories of Taiwan involve enduring the hot and humid summers, engaging in fierce battles of Street Fighter at the underground arcades with my siblings, exploring crowded night markets where I indulged in street food and played carnival games, watching Mandarin-subtitled Totoro while my cousin explained it to me
Indigenous Meets Indigenous: Reflections on Being an Indigenous
A Reflection to Commemorate Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month. Before coming to Taiwan, I did not expect Taiwan to be where I would reconnect so much with my home culture, Hawai’i. Throughout this year in Taiwan as a TEFL Advisor, I found that some of my experiences as
Fabulous Formosa: Reflections from the IEA Taiwan Seminar 2023
The Fulbright International Education Administrators (IEA) seminar experience has meant more to me than I ever anticipated it could mean back when I was applying for the grant. The onset of the pandemic and the prolonged delay to our seminar have made this experience feel much more special as we
「介入反應模式」在學前融合教育現場之實踐
本研究以「介入反應模式(Response to Intervention, RTI)」及多層次課程調整(Multi-Tiered Support System, MTSS)為基礎,探究RTI在MTSS融合現場之實務歷程。研究目的有二,分別為: 研究目的一、融合教育現場如何規劃MTSS之實踐 研究目的二、RTI之實作在MTSS現場之進行歷程 研究方法 研究者以美國密西根州立大學人類發展與家庭研究學系(Michigan State University, Department of Human Development and Family Studies)之兒童發展實驗室(Child Developmental Laboratories, CDLs)為研究場域,依照上述研究目的進行為期4個月(2022年2月1日至2022年5月31日)之實地探究工作(6月1日至7月31日為資料彙整與研究報告撰寫)。CDLs依年齡分班,每個班級每年平均約有30名幼兒,每班編制為1位主教老師(head teacher)以及兩位助理教師(assistant teachers)。研究方式包括:訪談教師或行政人員(1次)、觀察教師進行RTI之實務工作(2次)以及教師教學教材設計與檔案資料(1次)。透過質性研究分析,將搜集的資料打成逐字稿,並進行反覆資料閱讀與編碼,分析質性資料中透露的重要元素,回應本研究之目的。 研究結果 一、融合教育現場如何規劃MTSS之實踐 多層次支持系統是在融合教育的脈絡下,以個別化精神提供優質普通教育之課程與教學分層原理,分為優質普通教育層(Tier 1)、轉介前介入層(Tier 2)以及特殊需求個別介入層(Tier 3),確保所有學生接受高品質且適切的教育機會(Winton, 2016)。Sandall與Schwartz(2008)以學前融合教育場域之一日作息課程與教學為前提,將Tier 2之轉介前介入階段,分為「箝入式學習機會(Embedded Learning Opportunity, ELO)」與「課程調整與修改(Curriculum Modification, CM)」兩部分。本計畫要深入了解CDLs學前融合教育教學現場MTSS的執行方式。 CDLs招收學齡前(pre-kindergarten)階段的幼兒,年齡介於0-2(infant & toddler)及4.5歲(preschool/prekindergarten),本計畫場域為CDLs,探究幼兒融合教育現場之實務,故以3-4.5歲階段幼兒為主。本次訪談探究的議題為探究CDLs教師發現幼兒有需求的管道、教師如何調整課程(Tier 2)、蒐集與呈現資料(RTI)、如何協助幼兒取得特殊教育資源(Tier 3)以及幼教師專業的培育等面向進行初次討論。 對象:CDLs之主任、學前教師培訓講師/行政負責人 訪談歷程所探究的問題與回覆如下: CDLs進行此計畫,需要訪談1-2位有經驗的老師,了解其經營MTSS之做法,並採取不接觸幼兒的方式進行觀察,需要哪些程序以符合研究倫理要求? 在CDLs進行研究,只要有與幼兒互動(e.g., in-person observation),就需要申請IRB。本次計畫是透過單面鏡觀察並訪談專業程度高的幼教老師,故只要向CDLs提出研究申請,經由內部審核即可決定進行的程度與方式。 幼教老師如何理解班上孩子可能需要課程調整?
Taiwan and its Thirst for Education: Impressions of an East Asia Novice
My personal history is inherently international, as someone who had grown up in Germany and moved to the US first to study abroad and eventually for graduate school (a Ph.D. in Latin American history). But I had never traveled to any place on the Asian continent other than eastern Turkey!
