計畫類型：
萌芽型(B類)
計畫理念：
雲嘉地區各項競爭力指標遠落後於全台都會地區，本計畫之首要目標為藉由基礎科學教育的提升以及師資的培育，引發學生對於學習科學的興趣，使得區域逐漸產生優秀的科技人才，翻轉地區家庭社經地位，縮減城鄉教育資源差距，促進人才流動並提升國家競爭力。
It is unfortunate that Yuan-Lin and Chia-Yi areas lag behind in almost all the social competiveness indices for various reasons. The principal goal of this project is to improve the basic science education by attracting students to science learning programs and by offering high-school teachers opportunities to increase their teaching capabilities. We can effectively reduce the differences in education resources between major cities and rural areas. Hopefully, the areas will gradually produce more and more experts in science and technology. This will also convert the social and economic positions of many local families. Good science education to more areas certainly will also increase the national competiveness in modern world.
計畫簡介：
本計畫為地區中學教師提供專業增能課程，為中學生增加適性發展課程與活動，並建立科學教學觀摩與資源共享的平台以及經營科學教育教師社群，以促進雲嘉地區中等學校科學教育之健全發展，達成營造地區科學教育文化新環境為宗旨。
This project offers professional courses for local teachers to improve their teaching capabilities, and provides local students a diversity of science activities that currently cannot be arranged by local schools.The project will also create platforms for sharing educational resources and social groups for discussing science learning and teaching. The ultimate purpose is to promote healthy development in science education and to provide friendly science learning environment in the Yuan-Lin and Chia-Yi areas.
計畫場域：
雲嘉地區多所國高中
欲解決問題：
雲嘉地區屬傳統農業縣市，工商業並不發達，加上大眾交通運輸不便，就業機會不佳，導致居民平均所得偏低，青壯年人口嚴重外流；同時由於地方政府稅收不足，人口多分散於鄉鎮中的村落，也造成教育資源的普遍匱乏，成為全國中學生學習最弱勢地區，學生的學習成效在各種評比中皆與都會地區呈現嚴重落差。本計畫藉由大學資源的挹助，提供師資與設備辦理優質科學教育活動，並強化區域科學教師的專業能力，增進科學教育的成效，使得區域的學生對科學藉由正確的認識與實作、閱讀、導覽等多元活動而產生興趣，並得以適性發展，減少城鄉教育資源的落差。
The Yuan-Lin and Chia-Yi county are traditionally agriculture areas. The industrial and commercial activities are relatively scarce, and the public transportation is not convenient. As a result, the job opportunities are not promising and the outflow of labor force is serious. Consequently, the areas lack suitable educational resources. This project intends to share the science education resource of the Chung Cheng University to the local schools by providing professional guidance to the local teachers and diversified science learning activities to the local students. Especially, we try to stimulate the students’ interest to science learning, and at the same time improve their reading, writing, and practicing skills. By all these efforts, we hope to reduce the differences in education resources between major cities and rural areas.
解決方案：
本計畫將凝聚校內自然科學、資訊、工程、及運動科學領域的師資，並借重鄰近嘉義大學與南華大學應用科學領域的教師專長，共同組成USR團隊，利用大學豐富的教育及研究資源，帶領本校及夥伴學校學生共同參與計畫，藉由課程規劃、活動辦理、諮詢服務、教材開發以及數位平台建置等方式，以活化雲嘉地區科學教育為工作目標，致力協助強化區域內中學科學教育教師之專業能力，大幅增加弱勢地區師生與科學活動與科學新知接觸的機會，改善地區內之科學學習環境。
We collaborate with the professors of the National Chung Cheng University in natural sciences, information science, engineering, sport science, and colleagues in Nan-Hwa University to form a versatile USR team. The team members and university students plan science learning activities for local high-school students, and prepare teaching material and training programs for local teachers. We also create digital platforms for sharing resources and promoting science education. The goal is to activate excellent science education in this area, provide ample opportunities for students and teachers to be in touch with science knowledge and science activities, and create a science-learning friendly environment.
未來願景：
本計畫希望持續擴大及優化計畫之執行，重點包括：
1.合作學校將逐年加入本校周邊其他國高中，包括嘉義縣大吉國中、嘉義縣竹崎、東石高中，以及雲林縣北港、二崙國中。將服務場域擴大到雲嘉更偏遠之區域。
2.與本校服務學習課程結合，試辦鄰近小學的科普及運動體驗活動，並辦理中小學弱勢學生的課輔活動。
3.擴大經營直播及網路社群媒體，成為地區科教資源及推廣中心。
4.調查雲嘉地區教師進修需求，由本校理、工、教育學院共同籌劃開設「科學教育碩士在職專班」，鼓勵地區中小學教師在職進修，落實專業增能，並培育與未來地方科學教育教師及教育主管之連結。
1. We will expand the list of the collaborating schools in the next few years, including 大吉、竹崎、北港、二崙junior high and東石high schools.We will also seek collaboration with schools in even more remote areas.
2. We will open more USR-related courses in Chung Cheng University, and get more students involved in the learning and servicing for the science education of the local schools.
3. We will expand the service of social media, and make the University a local science education resource and promotion center.
4. If possible, the colleges of science, engineering, and education can co-open a science education mater program for local teachers. This would not only enhance their teaching capabilities but also make good connections between the University and the local education society.
