The Tectonics of Learning Perspectives: Factory, Tribe, and Ocean. / 學習觀的構築:工廠、部落與大海

碩士 / 國立臺灣師範大學 / 教育學系 / 106 / This study aims for describing learners’ learning perspectives. Factory, tribe and ocean are the metaphors which represent learners’ learning perspectives. Based on the experience of participant observation, the study starts from the concept of holistic life in order to understand learners’ learning perspectives. The concept of “Tectonics” illustrates the process how a human builds the connection with the world through the spatiotemporal approach. “Tectonics”can be considered as an echo of learning process because the concepts are concerned about not only individuals themselves but their sociability. As a result, the concept of “Tectonics” is the foundation of sociological discussion in the study, and “the tectonics of learning perspectives” will be the main content which shows the learning from the horizon of leaners.
According to the methodology of ethnography, researcher had worked on data collection for one and a half year. On the basis of the theoretical dialog between tectonics and ethnography, the study emphasizes the holism of framework and the epistemology of intersubjectivity. For the horizon of learners, researcher worked out an ethnography of learning. The ethnography of learning starts from the description of individuals, then sketches the learning process through the social interaction. Just like stitch work, the self-description of an individual learner as a needle and one’s life experience as suture, they complete the picture of the learning perspectives.
With the metaphor of stitch work, the cases in the study will present the tectonics of learning perspectives with the frame of point, line and plane. The description of point represents the learning spots in various fields and its representation. And the description of line and plane show three eleven-years-old learners’ perspectives as cases. According to the cases, the article analyzes the process of tectonics to do some sociological discussion.
Result from this study can be illustrated in three points. First, the cases reveal that school members in the field lived in the culture with the academic performative division, and they also display the learning situation that learners are encountering an information society because of using internet. Second, based on the value of holism and subjectivity, the tectonics of learning perspectives and the ethnography of learning provide educational discussion with a learners’ horizon and a cultural approach to explore learning. Third, through the theoretical view from an individual’s social discussion, to respond the issues of the phenomenon of “learnification of education” and the postmodern condition, we need to discuss these issues with multilevel systematic thinking.
