Getting close to nature through fervent teacher Xie Ji-huang’s photography classes

A generous donation of money from Xie Ji-huang (謝基煌) and a number of other teachers at Sanxia’s Chengfu Elementary School in New Taipei City has enabled the school to buy professional photography equipment, allowing students to experience a different kind of ecological education. Wonderful pictures of crested serpent eagles, colorful dragonflies, mandarin ducks in the plant pond, and even the rare Formosan blue magpie, are all examples of the students work.

Although students have achieved incredible results and produced countless outstanding pictures, Xie Ji-huang stresses that his focus is on teaching students to care about the environment and have respect for life, not solely on the quality of their photographic work. Earnest and passionate about his teaching work, in order to enhance the student’s scope for creativity, Xie Ji-huang has also introduced many new digital tools. This has allowed students to have fun while they learn, narrowing the distance between them and nature.

熱血教師謝基煌 攝影教學親近環境

新北市三峽成福國小血教師謝基煌，與校內多位老師集體捐出獎金，購買專業器材，讓學生體驗不一樣的生態教學。例如在天空飛翔的大冠鷲、色彩斑斕的蜻蜓、水草塘的鴛鴦，甚至罕見的台灣藍鵲，這些作品都是三峽成福國小學生的得獎作品。成績非常亮眼，學生們常常在攝影中表現出色，但作品的好壞其實不是重點，謝基煌更在乎的是學生對於環境跟生命的關注與尊重。謝基煌對於教學熱情認真，為了讓學生們在攝影創作上有更多的發揮空間，他還引進了許多新的數位工具，讓學生們能夠在樂趣中學習，拉近自己與環境的距離。
