猴硐礦業勞動影像行動三部曲：從勞動襲產到勞動教育的實踐與探索

A Visual Action Trilogy of Houtong Coal Mining Labor: The Practice and Exploration from Labor Heritage to Labor Education

本研究在「勞動襲產」與「新工人階級研究」的啟發下，筆者於2021年正式啟動「猴硐礦業勞動影像行動」USR計畫，與位於新北市的猴硐礦工文史館合作，以勞動襲產為核心視角，結合影像方法的實作策略，旨在突破台灣校園勞動教育多以勞動權益與觀念講述為主的模式，嘗試提出一條結合歷史感、身體感與勞動文化的勞教新路徑。本文首先聚焦於該計畫執行期間，如何從礦區的物件、人物與地景切入，發展出三部曲教案—「挖掘物件的秘密」、「末代礦工攝影計畫」與「猴硐煤鄉漫遊」的實施過程，並進一步分析此為期兩年的教學實踐，如何透過參與式影像實作，促成跨世代合作，進而串連起勞動教育、襲產保存與社會推廣，逐步建構出三合一的學習鏈。最後，本文將反思此計畫的階段性實踐經驗與挑戰，並以此探討文化導向勞教方案的發展潛能，期為校園勞動教育開啟更多的想像空間，以及促進對於勞動文化襲產保存的關注與討論。

Inspired by the theoretical frameworks of labor heritage and new working-class studies, this study launched the“Visual Action of Houtong Coal Mining Labor”University Social Responsibility (USR) project in 2021. In collaboration with the Houtong Miners’Museum in New Taipei City, the project undertook a two-year teaching initiative aimed at reimagining labor education in Taiwan. Departing from conventional campus-based labor education—which often emphasizes rights discourse and abstract values—this project adopted a labor heritage-centered approach and employed visual methodologies to explore alternative pedagogical strategies grounded in historical consciousness, embodied experience, and labor culture. This article first investigates how the project engaged with objects, individuals, and landscapes from the mining area to develop a trilogy of teaching modules: Discovering the Secrets of Objects, The Last Miners Photography Project, and A Memory Tour of Houtong Coal Mining Town. It then analyzes how these modules activated labor heritage through participatory visual practices, fostering intergenerational collaboration and forming an integrated learning chain that connects labor education, heritage preservation, and public engagement. Finally, the paper reflects on the phased implementation and challenges of the project, positioning it as a case study to explore the potential of culturally oriented labor education. It seeks to contribute new ideas to labor pedagogy within academic settings and to stimulate broader discussions on the preservation of labor heritage and working-class culture.
