偏鄉社區營造之啟動：宜蘭社區大學的課程案例

How Learning Facilitate Community Development in Rural Region: The Case of Yilan Community University Program

偏鄉地區近來在區域發展中一直處於弱化的困境，然而社區總體營造的在地經營與行動的精神，可為老鎮挹注一股新生的契機。本研究針對宜蘭社區大學與在地社造團體於民國92 至94 年推動之社區營造員培訓計畫進行研究，檢視他們如何架構在地化之社區學習模式，引進哪些社區學習的教學方法來促進在地知識的活化，來協力種籽人才啟動社區改造行動，促進社區轉型。研究初步發現，邁向地方活化的歷程，正是一個不斷「造人」的歷程。關鍵在於從個人到組織、到社區、以至跨區域的社群學習創新與連結，策略包括個人轉化學習與在地的連結、社區培力著眼長期能力的建構，以及從地方社會開展多元協作場域而使創新知識得以踐行。

Rural areas have long not been valued in regional development; however， community development as an effort of grassroots has worked wonderfully to revitalize old villages to blossom again. Yilan is one of these cases. The paper is to study a series of community development training programs for local residents， which are initiated and implemented by Yilan Community University and some locally-rooted community development organizations (NGO)， and to explore the teaching methods applied to cultivate learners the ideals of community development and citizenship as well as know-how techniques. The study found that achieving community renaissance is a continuous process of citizenship education， and the innovative learning connection among individual， organization， and community， and other communities is the key to succeed in the process.
