實體教科書多年改版一次,主因是出版作業之可觀固定成本,迫使書商必須大量印製,再逐年出清庫存。因此,在新版教科書上市前的購書者,往往感嘆書本的資訊落後;更嚴重者,教科書作者為避免遭到如此詬病,而利用故佈疑陣等途徑隱匿真實資訊。雖然,這種行為無傷大雅,不影響基礎觀念的闡述,但卻也在潛移默化中傳遞不坦白、不實在的負面教育與學術文化。教育與學術從業人員往往感嘆製作教材辛苦、教學壓力沉重,事實是行行業業皆辛苦,所以,教師利用課餘時間撰寫教材是天經地義的義務,將教材出版、免費提供給學生,得以傳遞文明知識,以及實踐教師著作人格權的實現。白紙黑字的表達知識,接受世人的檢驗、討論與批評。教學相長、精益求精,希冀引領讀者,共同窮究天人之際,通曉古今之變。
Physical textbooks usually revise once for many years due to the considerable fixed cost of publishing. Conseuently, booksellers are forced to print in large quantities and then clear the inventory year by year. Therefore, purchasers of books before the launch of a new revision often lament the backwardness of the information in the textbooks. More seriously, textbook authors, in order to avoid such criticism, deliberately leave readers suspense about the true information. Although this kind of behavior is harmless and does not affect the elaboration of basic concepts, it also subtly conveys negative education and academic practice. Education and academic practitioners often lament the hard work of making textbooks and the heavy pressure of teaching. In fact, all professions are tough. Therefore, it is a natural obligation for teachers to write teaching materials in their spare time. A teacher fulfill his moral rights by publishing textbooks and providing them to students for free. The expression of knowledge is conveyed in black and white, and it is subject to the inspection, discussion and criticism of the world. I publish this article for advancing teaching each other, striving for perfection, hoping to lead the readers to explore the border between the mortality and immortality, and to have a through interpretation of the history.
