| Summary: | 碩士 === 淡江大學 === 未來學研究所碩士班 === 99 === The research investigates how students in Futures Studies learned the concepts of futures thinking. It also tries to find out how students in the field learn the three elements of futures thinking, which are long-term futures thinking, critical futures thinking, and diversify thinking. Through the study, the researcher tries to understand master students’ changes in futures thinking before and after their graduate studies in the field. Finally, the researcher integrates the ideas of “futurization” derived from the respondents’ suggestions and analyzes the learning the futures thinking with casual layer analysis.
The research data generated from in-depth interviews with students and graduates from a master’s program in Futures Studies. Results show that the students were not familiar with Future Studies before entering the program. But through the core curricular of Future Studies, students were able to focus on different ways of learning and thinking through the process of their academic learning concepts of futures thinking. Respondents became more capable in logical thinking, in diversified thinking, and in planning for the future.
