Summary: | 碩士 === 銘傳大學 === 教育研究所碩士在職專班 === 102 === This study was intended to investigate the journey of a group of junior high students to play a part in Din Tao, a religious parade unique in Taiwan and develop a comprehensive understanding of the Din Tao field of four teenagers. In addition, temple management was interviewed to find out the culture of Din Tao organizations, school teachers’ view on the participation of teenagers in Din Tao, and the counseling strategies having been deployed. Junior high school teenagers are a stage of self-identity and role confusion, and trying very hard to prove the value and significance of their existence. When the campus environment does not provide a stage or opportunity for them, and they try and fail again and again in school, the frustration will lead to one after another behavioral problem, causing challenges to school teachers in discipline and counseling. The study started with the motivation of these four teenagers to participate in a Din Tao group in the attempt to find out why they wanted to be a part of a Din Tao parade and comprehend the knowledge of the entire background and context of their participation in Din Tao. The years in junior high school are when young people start to discover themselves along their journey to adulthood. In the interviews, field was one of the domains of study. From this domain efforts were made to uncover the response and thoughts deep inside these teenagers’ minds and to investigate how they think about and plan for their lives. Furthermore, how the temple management viewed the idea of Din Tao and how the leader dealt with these teenagers were documented in the in-depth interviews. Finally, the teachers’ ideas, observation and their counseling strategies about Din Tao teenagers were included. Hopefully, the contents of these interviews, after returned to the original, will help counsellors and class supervising teachers, or even teachers of other subjects and parents will be more willing to put themselves in these teenagers’ shoes and give them the appropriate and timely help.
