Happy Schools Guide and Toolkit: A Resource for Happiness, Learners’ Well-Being and Social and Emotional Learning Year of publication: 2021 Corporate author: UNESCO | UNESCO Bangkok The Happy Schools Guide and Toolkit is designed to support teachers and school leaders in primary and secondary schools across the Asia-Pacific region, in thinking about how they can create their own Happy School. It has therefore drawn from aspects of the Happy Schools Framework, which can be most readily addressed at the school level. While the Happy Schools Guide is targeted towards school leaders and teachers at the school level of administration and pedagogy development, the Happy Schools Toolkit is conceived for teachers at the classroom level. 
Imagining the Classroom Full of Learning in the Future: Effective Teaching With Social Constructive Learning (Educational Journal ; Vol.48, No.2) Year of publication: 2020 Author: 洪瑜佩 This article used an observation scale, together with literature exploration and film observation, to imagine the future classroom. From literature review, it was found that constructivist teaching helps students acquire new knowledge and develop cognition through connecting new and old knowledge. Teaching with the social constructivism approach regards learning as the result of interaction with society and culture. This article aimed to explore the social constructivist teaching context, as well as to observe which aspects and connotations teachers should pay attention to in curriculum arrangement. The researcher amended the observation scale designed by Good & Lavigne (2018) with five steps: (a) raising questions;(b) collaboration and suggestions; (c) assessment and discussions; (d) application to scenarios; and (e) summarizing knowledge. Teachers’ teaching was observed and assessed based on the five steps. The following results were found: (a) students should have the responsibilities of learning;(b) teachers must have good questioning and guidance skills; (c) teachers need to incorporate learning into real-life situations; (d) students’ cognition must be reviewed and monitored frequently. The researcher believes that a classroom full of learning is not imaginary. Teachers already have the ability to construct effective classrooms and should treat students as the learning agent.
