碩士 === 國立政治大學 === 教育研究所 === 100 === The purpose of this study was to understand the curriculum articulation status of general education on art subjects in National Chengchi University. The method of qualitative research was to interview college students and the teachers of the affiliated high school and university. The 10 members involved in the process were interviewed in depth. The interviews were recorded, transcribed, and then combined with document analyses. Finally, the conclusions and recommendations were drawn. According to the findings, teachers of the arts in either high schools or university do not consider the curriculum articulation in the course of lesson planning. The reason is mainly that it is difficult for teachers to grasp the students’ previous learning status and that teachers believe in the philosophy of teaching all comers without discrimination. Facing the curriculum without considering the articulation, the teachers adjust the course design so as to meet the students’ different learning backgrounds. In addition, teachers adopt diverse course contents and assessments, which helps activate the curriculum and enhance students' interest in learning. The university authority can also provide a proper field for learning arts, guiding students to learn arts in the school environment. Students who are enthusiastic about arts learning can naturally continue arts courses both in high school and in college and actively intake arts knowledge in their spare time, expanding arts learning. Although these arts courses during the two stages do not consider the articulation, students can still feel the differences in curriculum depth clearly, in line with the considerations of articulation in order. Therefore, if the teachers can know students' prior knowledge before class and understand the students’ learning backgrounds, it will further contribute to the articulation of the arts curriculum.
