我國國立大學核心價值觀之探究－從「校訓符號」觀之
A Study on the Core Values Embraced by National Universities in the Republic of China: From the Viewpoint of ＂School Motto Symbol＂
摘要
校訓核心價值觀對大學之存在具有重大價值與意義，但國內外相關深入研究卻較少，爰本研究乃以108學年度我國44所「國立大學」為樣本，運用「質化研究法」，探究其校訓核心價值觀之實況，進而鑽研其共通性思維等問題。結果發現當前44所國立大學中，除了1所尚在研議外，另有3所沒有制訂明確的「校訓」，而以其他核心價值（校園精神、學校願景）替代，其餘40所皆訂有「校訓」；而從樣本大學之校訓或其他替代的核心價值中，也發現相關學校於制訂過程頗費心思、內在意涵深具激勵性、文字用詞言簡意賅、有些共通的校訓核心價值等共通性思維。最後，作者也從樣本大學、非樣本大學、教育部政策與後續研究等層面，提供合理性建議。

The core values embedded in school mottos bear a great significance for the existence of universities. Yet this has been a topic under-researched in related literature either in Taiwan or other countries. This study, accordingly, surveyed a sample of 44 national universities in Taiwan by employing the qualitative method. The aim was to investigate the current status quo of the core values of their school mottos, and their common thinking. It was found that, among the 44 institutions investigated, 40 of them actually had established school mottos which they valued a lot, one institution was in the process of formulating, while another three were short of such motto. The latter replaced school mottos with other core values (e.g. campus spirit, university vision). In addition, based on the school mottos or other alternative core values that the sample universities had been honoring, we found substantial attention given by the concerned schools to the formulating process, internal implications that were encouraging in nature, brevity and conciseness in word choice, and core values embedded in shared common school mottos. Finally, the author offers some proposals of rationality from the dimensions related to sample universities themselves, non-sample universities, policies maintained by the Ministry of Education in Taiwan, and things to be done by subsequent research.
