科普寓言 孫德珍1/18/2011
上週末參加由教育部主辦的「甘特寓言故事核心教師工作坊」，來自全國各地的30多位教授、70多位中小學教師、閱讀團體及荒野夥伴們，在三天的工作坊中展現相當的熱忱，這是以往在台灣的研習少見的。這次盛會邀請到甘特寓言故事的作者─Dr. Gunter Pauli 親自來台授課，他有著幽默的談吐，獨到的見解，更有著對教育的睿智，風靡全場。Pauli博士是「藍色經濟」的作者，也是ZERI零排放研究創新基金會創辦人、十多年來投身生態永續事業，在聯合國的支援下，發展了一百個無廢棄、零污染、低成本，大商機的模式、創造上億個工作機會。他透過自然觀察，學習自然界的法則，得到許多靈感，創造了許多有名的作品。例如：仿效白蟻窩的構造，建築不需空調的大樓、以回收玻璃瓶當建材、模仿斑馬黑白條紋使建築自然形成通風、以咖啡渣培植菇類減少橡木砍伐…。
Gunter為青少年寫了一系列甘特寓言，已有36本，在世界各國賣出1700萬套，此次在台中文翻譯將由信誼基金會及遠哲科學教育基金會出版。甘特所寫的故事，是科普寓言，以大自然的物種為主角，對於環境、生態有生動的描述，作者並希望透過故事中的角色對話，引發情緒智商，透過閱讀引導，喚醒孩子對於科學的熱忱。
這一梯次是英文授課，雅歌除我以外，還有五位被培訓：秀雯、彥塵、振寧、恐龍、琥珀，我們都結交很多教育界有心的夥伴，並相約之後要努力推廣這套教材。雅歌下學期的課程主題是：生命的改變VS環境的改變，十多年來以兒童歌劇「小池王國」為劇本，幾年前有封箱的念頭，曾經想要換新劇本。經過三天的工作坊，深入了解教材內容，雅歌的老師們常會會心一笑，這不就是雅歌上課的方式？老師一邊講故事，一邊讓孩子把劇情演出來。Gunter要大家學習看到關連，雅歌用一整年在教關連，Gunter談情緒智能，這不就是雅歌的品格教育？而我們的孩子不只是學習情緒管理、挫折包容，還認識自己、看到榜樣。主持這個計畫的曾憲政校長專程來看過雅歌，對雅歌的課程非常感動，數次告訴Gunter雅歌老早在做他要的課程。
Gunter提到一個人要成功必需有mentor(師傅)導引，雅歌的老師們很幸運能夠追隨大師，親聆教誨；這套書是多元智能、雙語進行的課程，雅歌的孩子很幸福，將會是台灣第一批接觸這套教材的人。我告訴Gunter,雅歌的教育理念與他想推動的方式完全符合，只是我們還沒有進入科普的領域，今年正好我在研究課教科學，收穫甚多，何況恐龍老師、琥珀老師加入協同教學，我對下學期的課程很有信心。
