再度獲頒服務學習特優教師，心中滿是感恩與省思。回頭看了當年的獲獎心得，也不過才三年前，這個世界已經因為AI帶來翻天覆地的改變；這三年也剛好是學校推動元宇宙計畫的起點，我構思的服務學習方案因此從設計服務轉向更多元的方向。除了持續擔任USR Hub計畫的協同主持人，帶領學生走出教室，以設計思考落實社會實踐之外，我們拜訪桃園三洽水、龍潭、三坑、大溪左岸等地的文史工作者，帶領我們進入到社區去進行更具文化底蘊的深度訪問與調研，拍攝有臨場感效果的360影像，融入值得推廣的社區特色與人文素養要素，製作具備高互動、高沉浸式的VR社區導覽介紹。科技始終來自人性，一路累積滿滿感觸與收穫，也對教學、學生、在地社區三者的連結有更深體悟。由衷感謝各合作社區、在地產業願意敞開場域，給予師生實踐的機會；也感謝服務學習中心全體同仁，從經費補助、行政協助一路相挺，讓課程得以穩定進行。未來我會持續推動跨領域服務方案，融合科技與在地人文，帶領學生持續深耕地方，以服務滋養教學，用設計實踐傳遞全人關懷的教育初心。
Being honored once again as an Outstanding Teacher in Service-Learning fills my heart with gratitude and reflection. Looking back at the reflection essay I wrote when I received this award three years ago, I am struck by how dramatically the world has changed under the influence of AI. These past three years have also coincided with the launch of our university’s Metaverse initiative, which inspired me to shift my service-learning projects from design-focused services toward more diverse and innovative directions.
In addition to serving as a co-principal investigator for the USR Hub project and guiding students beyond the classroom to apply design thinking in social practice, we visited local cultural historians in Taoyuan’s Sanchashui, Longtan, Sankeng, and the Daxi. Through their guidance, we immersed ourselves in local communities, conducting in-depth interviews and culturally grounded field research. Together, we captured immersive 360-degree imagery and integrated community highlights with local cultural knowledge to create highly interactive and engaging VR community tours.
Technology, after all, exists to serve humanity. Throughout this journey, I have gained invaluable insights and come to appreciate more deeply the profound connections among teaching, students, and local communities. My heartfelt thanks go to our partner communities and local organizations for opening their doors and providing meaningful real-world learning opportunities for both faculty and students. I am equally grateful to the Service-Learning Center team for their unwavering support—from funding to administrative assistance—which has enabled our courses to run smoothly.
Looking ahead, I will continue to promote cross-disciplinary service-learning projects that weave together technology and local humanistic values. I remain committed to guiding students in building deeper connections with local communities, enriching my teaching through service, and upholding the core mission of holistic education through design.
