Dr. Martyn Rawson is the author of "The Educational Tasks and Content of the Steiner Waldorf Curriculum" and offers the courses “Nature and Economics in a Globalized World” and " Preliminary Research Project on Waldorf Education " in our program. As a long-standing international faculty member who has been with us since the start of our master program, recently he shared his views with us, “Waldorf education in Taiwan combines international perspectives on contemporary education with traditional Chinese values, philosophy and art. The faculty reflects this blend with well-known academics from the international Waldorf academic community and experienced Taiwan colleagues with roots in Waldorf education and progressive education. The programme combines cutting edge educational theory with educational practice both of which focus on the developing human being along with transformational artistic practices. Education today has to meet the demands of a rapidly changing world of work, the digital revolution, a multilateral geo-political structures and tension and fluid global cultural hybridisation. Many educational approaches today are one-dimensional, focusing on knowledge reproduction and standardization in a competitive environment. However, what the world needs is capable, open-minded, self- confident young people for whom traditional values are as important as world-open cosmopolitanism and personal choice of life-style. Waldorf education aims to provide students with opportunities to develop their agency and powers of judgement as well as equipping them with resilience.”
