摘要

近年來教育部逐漸重視大學教育的教學品質，相對的，大學教師的學習成為關注的焦點。本文關注專業學習社群對大學教師的學習，以中部某所大學推動十年的博雅書院專業學習社群為個案，探討大學教師透過專業學習社群之學習。本文以共學、共作、及共享三個主題，討論分析參與博雅書院專業學習之教師透過導師沙龍、共同備課、行政會議的跨領域社群共學，並將學習運用於共同開課、辦理活動的實踐，爾後教師建立共享之博雅教育價值與高等教育的目的，並重新省思大學教師之角色。從個案分析結果，本文歸納出大學專業社群應考量兼顧社群成員的多元性，提供大學教師跨領域對話，並能扮演時而領導者，時而分享者，時而學習者的多元角色。如此一來，專業學習社群有可能在高等教育開展，提供大學教師一起學習，一起成長，而提升高等教育的教學品質。
