The Book Loving Atmosphere from the Campus — from Class Study Group to Parent Study Group

Abstract

In order to build a book loving campus, National Feng Yuan Senior High School has organized many reading programs. In these programs, we divide teachers, students and their parents into several study groups. After numerous meetings, it is found that with well-planned guidance, these reading programs help them not only actively to participate in group discussion and exchange ideas but also to broaden their horizons and develop multiculturalism. This paper intends to share our experience and strategies in the implementation of the whole reading programs. The first section is a detailed introduction to the procedures of the reading programs, including how to organize study groups, train the study group leaders, help students make reports and performances, hold contests and publish students' results. In the second section, the actual operation of parent study group is described. At the end, we examine all the achievements from these activities, and make some recommendations. In addition, we are firmly convinced that schools, families, and the society are an undivided union. If we can incorporate community resources into reading programs, we can surely create a well-structured and comfortable reading environment. We provide this experience of building a book loving campus to the public, and sincerely hope to eliminate the stereotyped image of reading and make vivid and interesting reading experiences blended into daily lives that everyone can enjoy.
