New Taipei City Jian'an Elementary School─Ecological picture books come to life

Jian'an Elementary School is surrounded by mountains, with winding streams, a quiet environment, like a paradise, and rich natural resources. School teachers have fully developed local environmental education textbooks and courses to construct environmental education courses with school-specific characteristics. In order to deepen students' environmental ethics and make learning more relevant to life and effective, the course concept is based on the historical story of local ancestors who resisted Japan and protected their hometown in 1896 AD. Imitate the sentiments of our ancestors, let students study the ancient and modern humanistic ecology of the community, and accumulate the knowledge and ability to care for and protect the environment. At the same time, students are trained to think creatively, solve problems, cooperate with others, plan comprehensively, overcome difficulties, and bear failures and setbacks. and other important core competencies, and then achieve the vision of enhancing the value of the school's existence and rebuilding the confidence in the lives of residents in the Xiaoangkeng community, and initiating the opportunity for Jian'an transformation.
The school-based curriculum has been gradually constructed since 1997. After ten years of tempering, the 108 curriculum has been cross-domainly connected with the school-based curriculum since 107, and the three aspects of the art curriculum have been used to allow children to learn in "Jian'an Art-Based Curriculum" Cultivate aesthetic literacy, experience aesthetic experience, and create artistic value in the "Thinking" course. In the digital era of the 21st century, we hope to create opportunities for students to explore and feel the people, events and scenery in their living environment, and to understand and appreciate various art forms and works in the environment. It also enables students to use their senses, perceptions and emotions, improve their independent learning and exploration abilities through practice and participation in operations, cultivate aesthetic literacy and macro vision, and feel the happiness of life.
When thinking about how to make students realize the importance of protecting the environment, instead of just training students to do ecological explanations in the past, this time we tried to draw ecological picture books as a change, so that students can not only learn about mutual assistance and division of labor through creation, In addition to appreciating the merits of others, you can also gain a deeper understanding of the importance of conveying correct knowledge in ecological picture books. Therefore, this course covers everything from understanding picture books, knowledge about fireflies, storyboard design to stop-motion animation production. Although it only takes 1,200 minutes to create a one-minute short film, it contains the true meaning of students applying what they have learned and using videos to share a friendly environment.
