摘要

理想上，社區大學的課程規劃不但要依循學術、藝能及社團的分類方式開授，三大類課程還要能相互連結，方能符合從私領域關懷到公共領域正義感培養的成人學習者道德感養成歷程，培養出現代公民。根據本研究結果顯示，社區大學三大類課程的連結，首先必須要讓學員們透過藝能課程建立自信心、安全感、信任感與同理心；之後，再藉由學術課程認識正義原則與多元文化，並培養包容與尊重的公民德行，甚至將這份同理心延伸至政治社群與全人類；最後，再於社團課程的社會服務或倡導行動中落實關懷與正義的理想。

Ideally, curricula of community colleges in Taiwan would have been divided into three parts: academic courses, group activity courses and living skill courses, and the main goal of the curricula are modern citizens cultivating. According to this discourse, the key element to cultivate modern citizens is connecting three parts of the curricula with each other. First, we should create a relationship built on an understanding of mutual respect, caring, and concerns to assist one another, and to enhance learners' self-confidence and feelings of security and trust through living skill courses. Second, we should help learners to be acquainted with both justice and multicultural principles through the academic courses. Through the understanding that some conflicts of values are unavoidable in pluralistic society, learners may extend their empathy to those beyond their kinship circle. Finally, through group activity courses, the learners may have opportunities to polish their problem solving skills, to care for about others with different backgrounds, and thus to strengthen their community ties with caring and justice.
