01
Miaoli Xingang Junior High School combines physics classes with art classes. The physics teacher teaches the knowledge of converting potential energy into kinetic energy and torque, while the art teacher guides students to build different giant structures and launch pads, and designs the "Happy Bird" game.

Huang Rubin, director of art and literature at Xingang Elementary and Secondary Schools, said that in this course that combines physics and art, after students have knowledge of physics mechanics, the visual teacher will use multimedia resources to lead them to operate tablets to understand the concept of the "Angry Birds" game. , and introduce world-famous buildings, and understand the computational mechanics, structure and other aesthetic knowledge concepts necessary to construct objects in architecture.

Finally, students were asked to work in groups to actually build different giant structures and launch pads, and to think and solve problems and apply knowledge through the process of game activities. Huang Ruban said that the cross-disciplinary courses of "Happy Bird" have also been extended to elementary schools and kindergartens due to the enthusiastic investment of students and teachers.

Ruby Lin, a Google-certified instructor, assisted Taipei Yongchun High School, Hsinchu Zhongxiao Junior High School and Taitung High School to introduce VR (virtual reality) into teaching in various fields. For example, she gave an example of a school offering a "delicious English class" that allows students to see three-dimensional images of food through VR, and when combined with English teaching, it is more lively and interesting.

Nowadays, school classrooms are no longer just about single-subject teaching, but "cross-field teaching" that integrates aesthetics and information technology. Don’t be surprised if math and art teachers work together to teach students how to make geometric lamps, or if chemistry and music teachers work together to teach students how to write lyrics and compose music. This is the future trend.

"Cross-disciplinary" and "innovative education" are core elements of the 12-year national education. The Ministry of Education entrusted National Taiwan Normal University to undertake the "Experimental Curriculum Development Project for Cross-Aesthetic Education in Secondary Schools and Elementary Schools", using art as a bridge to carry out diversified learning Development and aesthetic experience, and from today to the 9th, "What is this class? Cross-field aesthetic education achievement exhibition" will be held in the lobby on the first floor of the Advanced Education and Promotion Department of National Taiwan Normal University. There will be 177 schools and more than 200 cross-field aesthetic teaching. Presentation of curriculum program.
