Apple Daily | Tai-Wen Ho | Experimental Education: an Imaginative Way of Reusing Cultural Heritage
實驗教育機構團體在實驗教育三法[1]通過後大幅激增，根據教育部國教署統計106學年參與實驗教育之學生數已達1萬1,812人[2]，然而，實驗教育在學習空間環境的政策法令面，卻還沒有配套到位。台北市非學校型態實驗教育機構團體（以下簡稱實驗教育團體），在台北市教育局106學年度最新統計，參與人數已達1,681人，共22團體8個機構，為全國之冠。然而，令人憂慮的是僅能在租用公寓住宅一樓或商辦大樓空間作為教室的學習環境，政府尚無提供配套教學空間的資源平台，形同漠視選擇實驗教育的學生之「環境受教權」。Date : 2018/09/12

United Daily News | Jui-Ting Wang | Experimental Education Should Not be Categorized as Cram Schools
現今少子化現象，家長們對於孩子的教育也特別用心，越來越多的家長傾向不以「五育均優」作為教育目標，而是選擇發掘孩子的潛力或天份，更重視引導發展孩子的學習力與創造性，揮別體制內「背多分」的教育模式，不願再讓孩子的成長受到分數及排名所約束。於是，在攸關實驗教育合法化的「高級中等以下教育階段非學校型態實驗教育實施條例」於民國103年底公布後法施行後，許多實驗教育團體與機構陸續申請成立，但各地方政府對於實驗教育所需空間的相關配套措施，遲遲未能跟上推動實驗教育所需的腳步，致使興辦實驗教育之路不清不楚、坑坑巴巴。Date : 2018/09/11

在人權作為普世價值的年代，是什麼樣的民主法治社會，會有立委提案加重「刑法193條」的懲罰， 將一條原本針對不肖營造廠，因偷工減料導致危害公共安全的刑責，大剌剌的修改成連坐賜死工程相關之建築師（設計人、監造人）和業主（起造人）？在這種假意揮舞著「保障公共安全」 的大旗下，以殺一儆百，撩起選民之仇恨感，卻悲哀的凸顯了台灣建築業長期缺乏專業工作風險控管的機制。這次「刑法193條」修法事件旨向重罰「建築師」，更揭露了台灣的建築師工作，早就被無限疊加風險了。

Apple Daily | Chia-Ju Lin | The Unlimited Responsibility Imposed Upon Architects
近日，王定宇等16位民進黨籍立委聯名提案修法「刑法193條」，將建築師納入死刑和無期徒刑重罰的對象。乍看是防止劣質工程，其實邏輯完全錯亂。建築專業責任的重點是「損害賠償」，絕不是「以命抵命」就能解決問題。Date : 2017/11/01

China Times | Le-Ching Chiang | Do Not Make Architects Scapegoats in Politics
當樓倒災難發生，義憤填膺之時，群眾無法等待追根就底，瞭解真相，而是急著要揪出「罪人」，看建築師像極了古時會畫符的巫師…就抓去當祭品！Date : 2017/10/27
