Abstract
Society 5.0 is characterized by problem solving and value creation, decentralization, diversity, resilience, and environmental harmony. It also indicates that the major mankind needs to face are presented in the seventeen SDGs proposed by the UN. Therefore, the educational context of the UN SDGs was investigated in this study. Through a dialogue with Taiwan’s educational context and link with the educational technology behind the current Society 5.0 proposed by Japan, UN SDGs were discussed and aligned with the 12-year national basic education program of Taiwan. Societal design was applied to drive the practice of maker education, demonstrating the three core ideas of the 12-year national basic education: taking initiative (ontological view), engaging the public (cognitive view), and seeking the common good (ethical view). Defining the 12-year national basic education program can help truly implement the connotations of education in SDGs and highlight the key role of educational technology.
期刊介绍:
The mission of the International Journal of Online Pedagogy and Course Design (IJOPCD) is to provide a platform for the latest research, analysis, and development of online education, effective online teaching methods, and course design. IJOPCD covers the pedagogical design aspects of science education and computing education, as well as courses supported by educational technologies. Targeting academic researchers and educators who work in the field, this journal focuses on the importance of developments in online course design and teaching methods to improve teachers’ teaching and students’ learning. Researchers are encouraged to submit cross-disciplinary, high-quality syntheses that are interesting, beneficial, and apprehensible to all those interested in or teaching science and related disciplines. Topics to be discussed in this journal include (but are not limited to) the following: -Adoption of e-learning -Best practices in computing education -Best practices in science education -Blended learning -Computer-mediated communication -E-learning -Emerging technologies -Evaluation of learning technology systems -Evaluation of online learning effects -Learning management systems -Multimedia and interactive learning systems -Online course design -Online learners’ behavior -Pedagogy and teaching with technology -Virtual reality environments -Web-based teaching methods
