In 1995, the Moral Curriculum Group of Taiwan Provincial Institute for Elementary School Teachers' Inservice Education (IEST) developed the teaching unit regarding "patriotism" "Back to the past" for fifth grade students of elementary schools. There are some suthoritarian ideologies in the curriculum content regarding "patriotism," because the moral curriculum standard was revised in the authoritarian age in Taiwan. Therefore, in the teaching unit, the content outlines, "loving our country's excellent culture and tradition fervently" and "appreciating the efforts of ancestors, "basically represent the ideology of "Chinese ethnocentrism." However, under the democratized social context nowadays in Taiwan, the curriculum group re-interpreted the meanings of the content outlines based on the idea of multicultural education. Firstly, when editing the content, the curriculum group no longer chose the political figures to represent the ideologies of the past authoritarian age like "anti-Japan," "anti-Communist" and "Chinese ethnocentrism." Contrarily, the curriculum group intended to make children identify traditional culture through understanding their ancestors' lives. Secondly, based on the consideration of gender equality, the author chose a girl as the main character to avoid gender stereotypes while writing the reading article. However, the figure representing the content of the unit was a man, actually her grandfather. Thirdly, based on the emphasis of equality between ethnic groups, the curriculum group intended to make the children of each ethnic group in Taiwan share each other's traditional culture and respect it mutually. However, the culture of the new major and dominant ethnic group was still chosen in the reading article.
