科普,抑或科學傳播:關於臺灣的析辨與反思

Science Popularization, or Science Communication: Analysis and Reflection in Taiwan

摘要


本研究從臺灣科學傳播的脈絡觀點,檢視臺灣如何思辨科普/科學傳播?並提出反思與發展取徑。研究發現,就學門論而言,科學傳播其實蘊含著科學教化觀,儘管其試圖向「公眾理解科學」(PUS)、「公眾參與科學」(PEST)、「科技與社會」(STS)取經,但從其學門規劃仍可看出主事者擺盪於科學教育與科學傳播之間。而就「科普」與「科學傳播」探析,前者自九○年代以來逐漸受到批判,即使臺灣也開始出現反思的意見,認為該詞預設了科學乃係崇高、不證自明的角色,從而豎立起專家與常民間的高牆,其由上至下的科學傳播觀,蘊含了公眾即無知的欠缺模式觀(deficit model),殊不知,臺灣公民科學素養經研究者調查並不遜於先進國家。本研究主張從「科學傳播」一詞切入,將科學視為跨文化、跨領域的一環,是與社會、媒體乃至政治互動的存在,參照PUS、PEST乃至STS的精神,引領公眾共同探索如何具備科學的理性思維與判斷力,並與之轉化成參與公共議題的能力與動力,這容或是臺灣科學傳播擺脫科學教化、科學權威的契機與起點。

並列摘要


This study examines discourse of science communication in Taiwan and thinking about science popularization and science communication. The study found that science communication has a scientific concept of education in Taiwan. In addition, science popularization has gradually been criticized in Taiwan since the 1990s. The study advocates the entry of the term "science communication" and regards science as a cross-cultural and cross-disciplinary link, rather than just as scientific knowledge itself, and regards science communication as a "continuous" rather than a fragmentary process. The existence of the media and even political interactions, with reference to the spirit of PUS, PEST and even STS, lead the public to explore how to have scientific thinking and judgment, and transform it into the ability and motivation to participate in public issues.
