Abstract This research studied the dropouts who later attended the Cih-Huei class of Yong Ren Junior High School in Tainan County, by using methods such as document analysis, participant observation and deep interview. The goal was to assess the impact of the Cih-Huei class upon dropouts regarding their learning, daily living, family perspective and technical ability. It also examined the general courses, technical courses and living improvement activities provided by the Cih-Huei class in order to make suggestions that would improve the effectiveness of the Cih-Huei class. The growing track and family background of the dropouts were obtained through their personal information; their performance in the Cih-Huei class were assessed by the researchers who participated in the dropouts¡¦ living and teaching activities; and a semi-structured interview with the dropouts was employed to understand their true feeling about the Cih-Huei class. Finally, several suggestions were made on the course arrangement, living improvement activities and other related tasks for the Cih-Huei class. Hopefully these suggestions could serve as useful references for the future planning of general courses, technical courses, living management and improvement activities for the Cih-Huei class.
