越來越多外國人對中國歷史與文化產生興趣，中國藤網路研究計畫的成 立，主要是爲因應大衆對中國與日倶增的關注，爲以英語爲口說/閱讀/書寫 語言的觀衆，傳遞更細緻豐富的中國傳統文化內涵。在這些非中國人透過中國 藤來瞭解中國文化的同時，他們也重新認識自己。這種探索過程正是中國藤計 畫的主要教育價値。
在本文中，我們將：1)爲讀者介紹中國藤計畫；2)探討中國藤的藝術與 藝術教育理論基礎；3)詳述此網路計畫的功能及其使用的社群媒體；4)探討 在中國藤計畫下開發新教育網站EduVine的可能性;5)說明此一跨文化研究 模式的教育成果；6)這項計畫對於藝術教育的啓示。

Individuals outside the People’s Republic of China (PRC) are becoming more interested in learning about China’s history and culture. The primarily web-based project, ChinaVine, was developed, in part, to respond to this growing interest in China and to communicate a nuanced and complex conception of China’s cultural heritage for English speaking/reading/writing audiences. As those foreign to China learn about Chinese culture through ChinaVine, they are likely to simultaneously learn about themselves. This act of discovery is central to the educational process of ChinaVine.
In this article, we: 1) give the reader an overview of the ChinaVine project; 2) address art and art educational theory that grounds ChinaVine; 3) discuss the functions of this web-based project and the social media used within the project; 4) explore the possibilities of EduVine, the new educational component of ChinaVine; 5) describe the educational benefits of the cross-cultural research model; and 6) conclude with implications for the field of art education.
