摘要

本研究透過「角間的里山自然學校」的案例，瞭解大學如何扮演環境學習促進者角色、探討大學所能提供的環境教育專業服務類型，並分析這類型的環境學習促進組織所會面臨的挑戰及成功的關鍵因素。
研究發現，在大學內推動環境學習最佳的優勢在於其豐富的知識資源及具有熱忱的學生，但與行政單位之間的協調與溝通是最大的挑戰。於是，其成功的關鍵不在於硬體的改造，而在於內部共識的達成，這需要具有熱心並持續的推動的關鍵人士，不論是學生、教授、行政人員。為了達到內部共識，需要有外部資源的支持，因此，政府相關政策的輔助就扮演重要的角色，在日本的社會情境，推動社會貢獻已是大學的要責，關鍵人士可以透過外部環境的支援達成其推動環境學習的目標。在台灣情境之下，社會亦逐漸重視校園與社區的互動互助。因此「角間的里山自然學校」建立的發展經驗模式，可作為台灣有意促進環境學習的大學參考，亦促使大學促進環境教育的概念受到重視。

The purpose of the research is to understand how universities play the role of promoting environmental learning and what types of environmental learning the universities can provide. Challenges and key factors in success that this kind of environmental learning organization might face are also analyzed.
The results show that the advantages of the universities promoting EE lie in that the universities have abundant knowledge resources and students with passion. The biggest challenge is to communicate and coordinate with school administration. Thus, the key to success is not the transformation of hardware, but to reach consensus inside the universities and that needs passionate and persistent stakeholders to continue the job, no matter they are students, professors or administrators.
The universities need outside resources to reach the consensus inside, so the government polices play an important role. In the social context in Japan, one of the universities’ responsibilities is to promote social contribution, and the stakeholders can achieve the goal of promoting environmental education through obtaining support from outside sources. In the social context in Taiwan, the society gradually emphasizes the interaction between the schools and the communities. Therefore, the experience of 「Kakuma’s Satoyama Nature School」 can be a good example for the universities in Taiwan that want to promote environmental learning, and it can also make the concept of universities promoting environmental eudcation better valued.
