Zhudong Junior High School, Hsinchu County—Zhudong Art Activists

The curriculum is designed around a three-stage structure of "exploration-creation-action," integrating diverse fields such as art, society, technology, and comprehensive activities, allowing students to learn, create, and practice in real-world contexts.

The first step is to explore Zhudong and observe the local area.
Students learn to identify sustainability issues in their daily lives through street walks and spatial documentation, and use technological tools to take photos and mark them to collect observation records of Zhudong.

The second step is to transform the story into art.
Students use creative methods such as old house models, sound maps, and publication design to translate local stories and understand how art expresses the relationship between people and the environment; they further learn to condense the course content into "township co-learning workshops" and prepare teaching materials and activity procedures.

The third step is sharing aesthetics and curating activities.
The final result was the "Chase East Art Festival," with students serving as curators and guides, inviting community residents to the campus to learn and create together.

The innovation of the overall curriculum lies in the "transformation of the teacher's role": students are not only learners, but also promoters of aesthetic education, giving back knowledge to the community through the art festival and practicing "local revitalization starting from education". This design not only extends the social value of aesthetic education, but also makes the school a cultural center for intergenerational sustainable learning.
