Flipping Taiwan's education system | 為台灣學生打造的全方位教學策略：學思達教學法 | 張輝誠 Huicheng Zhang | TEDxTaipeiED

­Zhang knew that when it comes to teaching, the conventional way was for the instructor to stand on the podium and force-feeding facts to students with a 40~50 minute lecture. However, learning should be self-motivated and interesting for both teachers and students. Since then, Zhang began his mission to change this teaching style based on pure rote memorization, by allocating most of the classroom time for students to “Learn, Consider, Communicate”. In this talk, Zhang shares his “Flipping Chinese” observations and starting to create a new education revolution in Taiwan.

Huicheng Zhang is a Chinese literature teacher at Taipei's Zhongshan Girls' High School who has redefined how literature should be taught in Taiwan. As the force behind "Flipping Chinese" pedagogy, his methodology of encouraging students to "learn, consider, and communicate" is a bottoms-up approach where most of the time is reserved for students to engage in self-guided learning, in-depth analysis and discussions. Zhang also regularly shares his findings online, as a way to exchange ideas with other teachers and educators on what works (and doesn't). So far his flipped learning concept has attracted more than four hundred teachers from all over Taiwan to come as observers to his classroom.

我們記憶中的國文課是什麼樣子？國小背著不明白的唐詩三百首、國中寫著強說愁的作文、高中考著論語孟子，大江東去浪淘盡？

學、思、達三個字，是張輝誠教學時的一切，那代表著：學習、思辨、表達。張輝誠老師對國文到近乎瘋狂的熱愛，這次要翻轉填鴨式教學、顛覆考試的壓力，不再盲從教綱、不再只為考試讀書，他要讓國文課從此不同，讓學習從此沒有界限！

究竟是靠著什麼樣的創新，可以使學生愛國文到不願意下課？是因為有了多大的突破，可以讓來自各地，400名老師慕名前來觀課？輝誠老師熱情與堅持的狂熱，將說明一切！
