GAC 社会科学

学习建议

GAC 社会科学包含两个模块,研究社会如何运作,以及你如何去了解它。GAC027 关注身份认同:个人在社群与国家中的位置、人们如何互动,以及一个社会在不自觉中带有的预设。GAC028 转向全球议题,以及研究这些议题所用的方法。

研究方法才是真正的主题。区分一手与二手资料、在定量与定性方法之间做出选择、判断材料的可信度与倾向性,本身就是学习目标,而且会迁移到你日后写的任何论文中。

材料是论点的证据,不是装饰。两个模块都要求你构建读者可以核查的论证,分数取决于论证链条的质量,而不是观点的强烈程度。

小组协作也在考核之列。面向全班展示、主持讨论、以团队方式解决问题都写在学习目标里,因此备考也包括和他人一起演练。

我们的练习任务均为原创,并且只选取城市化、公共卫生、教育与环境等中性且有充分资料支撑的全球议题。
