本研究旨在對於一直以來欠缺研究與整理之台灣高中(職)專業戲劇教育之發展概況作一初步探索,並期待引領對其有興趣之研究者,對台灣青少年戲劇發展有一較初步之理解,並對未來研究者提供參考基礎。 台灣現代劇運,直到民國六O年代末與七O年代初之五屆實驗劇展,始臻高峰。劇場界之先驅以蓽路藍縷、以啟山林之壯闊胸襟與野心,為台灣劇場寫下璀璨一頁。短短二、三十年的時間,傳統戲曲外之劇場文化從了無生氣到熱鬧滾滾的蓬勃景象,直是另一台灣奇蹟。然而,正如台灣的整個政治、經濟、文化等等的社會發展一樣,從業餘走向專業、從粗糙走向精緻、從小眾走向大眾、從文化層面中的邊緣走向中心,均有其發展的歷程。其中「教育」扮演了重要的推手,大專院校之專業科系尤有其舉足輕重之深刻影響,只是斷層與片面的經營與投注,文化扎根終究無法深廣及全面,戲劇之發展也正面面臨所謂的轉型、調整時刻。即使九年一貫之藝術與人文課程初初開始,以及高中課程暫行綱要調整後之藝術生活逐漸重視,然截至目前為止,長久以來有關戲劇教育發展的相關研究、相關教育政策皆忽略了已有顯著成績之高中(職)專業戲劇教育之重要性,及其可能的強大產能,在其生態發展、經驗累積與傳承的研究上亦闕如!因此,高中(職)戲劇發展研究探索,於此益形重要。 本研究主要以高中(職)戲劇專科成立之種種做一普查,且對其中復興高中戲劇班深入探討,並將所呈現之現象及其代表意義,加以探討。同時研究發表重點計有:論文動機與背景、研究目的等;且淺涉藝術教育、資優教育及青少年戲劇教育理論研究與實踐等等。
This thesis was attempted to survey the historic development of the drama education at senior high schools and vocational high schools in Taiwan. Wish it can offer a brief history for those who are interested in further understanding in the drama education and teenager theater in Taiwan as well as the relevant reference for the scholars in this field in this future. The modern theater movement in Taiwan approached its climax around nineteen seventies to the five years Experimental Theater Festivals at nineteen eighties. The pioneers had explored a new era for the history of Taiwan modern theater. In only about twenty years, the modern theater was investigated from barely poverty to vivaciously prosperity, it should be counted as another Taiwan miracle. As the other aspects in Taiwan miracles, professional education has played an essential role in promotion, especially the theater departments in universities and colleges。 Though the courses of arts and humanities of the nine-years school education has just started, and the readjusted temporary outline of senior high school courses shows its increasing emphasis on arts, yet till at present, all the studies and strategies which concerned with the development of drama education always neglected the establishment and potentialities of the drama education in the senior high schools and vocational high schools. Even the research of its environment and the continuities of teaching experiences is absent too, hence the importance of investigating the development of drama education at senior high schools and vocational high schools in Taiwan is apparent. This study has investigated the founding process of all the drama departments of the senior high schools and vocational high schools, in the meantime I’ve tried to survey its meaning after summing up all the facts and situations. The major objectives of this report include: the motif and background, the aims of this research; also about education of the arts, the education especially for the talented children the theory and practice of the teenager’s theater education,etc..
