摘要(中文): 當今學校的歷史課程與教學,越來越需要正視學生的多元差異,及其帶來不同觀點的歷史認知和解釋,以及處理一些源於過去卻持續到現代的爭辯衝突。如何幫助學生認識歷史的性質,並能帶著更具歷史觀點的批判思考力,來積極參與民主社會的發展,讓歷史爭議議題教學成為值得探討的課題。本研究以9個高中歷史教科書爭議議題,採半結構方式深度訪談13位高中歷史教師,探討教師眼中什麼是歷史爭議議題?引起爭議的可能原因是什麼?議題的爭議焦點有哪些?教師的教學態度和立場是什麼?採用什麼教學方法及對成效的評估為何?研究結果顯示:歷史教科書議題的爭議敏感與臺灣的政治氣候、國際處境息息相關;歷史教科書爭議議題具當代史特性、反映歷史之變、潛藏對立的論述思維和價值觀;多數教師的教學態度與立場,盡量迴避政治認同的議題和不表達敏感的立場;爭議議題教學成效受制於考試要求標準答案的限制。整體而言,教師對歷史爭議議題的認知,受到當前社會政治困境、教科書書寫和教師信念的多重因素影響,而教師的歷史爭議議題教學,是專業知識、情境感知和教師身分認同的交互作用。
摘要(英文): In todays schools, it is very important that the History curriculum and the teaching of History are suitable for the students, given their heterogeneity when it comes to their level of interest in and understanding of history, and given the fact that historical issues keep emerging into our present-day society in various ways. How can we best help students to understand the nature of history, and to participate in our democratic society while exercising their critical historical thinking, where the latter makes controversial historical issues worth exploring. Based on interviews with thirteen high school history teachers, in which nine controversial issues that can be found in high school history textbooks were discussed, this study explores the following questions: What are the most important historical controversies from the teachers’ point of view? What are the possible causes and the central foci of these controversies? What are the teachers’ attitudes and positions regarding them? What teaching methods may be most effectively employed in this context?
In fact, it becomes clear that the controversies that we find in history textbooks are closely related to Taiwans own political atmosphere and her own relationship to the current international situation. In terms of their attitudes and positions, most History teachers may attempt to avoid the issues of “political identity”, especially insofar as this may set within historical context. On the whole, teachers perceptions of controversial historical issues are influenced by multiple factors including current socio-political dilemmas, the need for textbook writing and the general framework of teachers beliefs. Thus the teaching of controversial historical issues involves the interaction of professional knowledge, situational awareness and the teacher’s sense of self-identity.
