Description of Our Community: Wun De Elementary School, located in Dachu Community, Fengyuan Township, Changhua County, is situated on Bagua Plateau, at an altitude of 360 m, which is the highest tribal settlement in the entire county. Due to its high altitude, many TV and broadcast companies have set up transmitting sites in this area to enhance the reception quality. We would pass by TTV central transmitting site and BCC Fenyuang Radio Room on our way to school. The south of Dachu Village, which is near the county boundary, is where the central transmitting sites of CTV and CTS locate.
About a decade ago, BCC started a Better Community Plan, which has greatly improved the local community environment and provided scholarships to nearby schools. Near the BCC Central Transmitting Site, Wun De Elementary School has enjoyed much of BCC’s help. The top 3 students in every class could be awarded with scholarships every semester, which has encouraged our students to work hard. The senior managers of BCC would also participate in local or campus activities whenever there is one; moreover, BCC granted a land for the construction of the Little Genie Park in the south-west side of our campus. The contributions of BCC have been deeply appreciated.
Project Description: Far-reaching world of broadcasting - “The Broadcasting Corporation of China” is our project theme. Through field visits, interviews with the hosts, and various activities organized by BCC, we aim to gain a further understanding of the history, framework, contributions, changes, and reforms of “BCC”, which was established in 1992. Through BCC’s channels, such as i Like radio, News Network, i Radio, Formosa Network, Country Network, Oversea Network, and Hakka Network, we come to understand the influences of BCC on the cultural communication and people’s life, as well as its past and present as the No. 1 radio station in Taiwan.
To conduct a profound research, WunDe Broadcasting Explore Team started from BCC Fenyuang Radio Room next to the campus, visited the National Radio Museum in MingHsiung, Chiai, BCC Taichung, and BCC’s Taipei Headquarters, and even participated in the “Little Broadcast Journalist Camp”. BCC has played a crucial role in the society, made significant contributions and served the function of creating a better society as it provides the public with information on entertainment, knowledge, governmental policies and campaigns. How will BCC respond to the rise of TV, computers and mobile phones? How can BCC create a breakthrough and become popular again? These are all the topics that WunDe Broadcasting Explore Team will discuss in this project.
