碩士 / 國立臺灣大學 / 歷史學研究所 / 102 / The Great-Leap-Forward had reshaped contemporary China since 1958. Policies planned by central and local governments represented the regional development visions and still remains nowadays. Local education administrations, educators, teachers and CCP school committees translated those visions into teaching materials and educational activities, such as native-place textbooks. By gazing the educational material and participating education activities, the politics of economic adjustment, regional planning and transformation of the city can be understood more deeply. This research targets on the teaching material and activities in Shanghai municipal education. The first part based on the native-place history textbook, the usage of the term “imperialism” in teaching material weaved the past of Shanghai, and connected the planning visions in the movement. Also, native-place geography textbooks focused on regional differences in Shanghai. Teaching material and activities about the urban renewal in the shanty towns and new satellite industrial towns connected students’ daily life and regional development plans. Furthermore, the significant educational activities in the movement -- the combination of education and productive labor – widespread across the whole country. The movement provided a chance for students to participate in the official economic plans (especially local government) in the urban factories and rural communes. Education system involved with economic plans also reflected these differences of the school location arrangement and regional economic policy by local government. In the end, analyzing these educational activities helps us understand that the teaching materials and educational activities had reshaped the figures of region and career development .The education is not only part of the Great-Leap-Forward Movement, but also provided a way for students to gaze and to participate in their city – through the courses in the socialist city.
