隨著全球行動通訊世代逐步由5G持續邁向B5G/6G世代，通訊產業的技術討論重心已不再僅侷限於傳輸速率提升、延遲降低或基地台涵蓋增加等議題，而是逐步朝太空低軌道衛星通信，及高空通訊平台、無人機等非地面網路(Non-Terrestrial Networks, NTN)發展，與既有地面網路整合為異質通信網路架構。此趨勢不僅有助於補足偏遠地區、海上、航空及災害現場等傳統地面網路涵蓋不足之問題，也將進一步提升通訊服務之網路韌性及服務可靠性。在技術層面，低軌衛星因具備低延遲、廣涵蓋及部署彈性等特性，已成為各國推動次世代通訊網路與數位網路韌性政策的重要關鍵技術。產業層面上，國際間包括Starlink、OneWeb/Eutelsat、Amazon Leo、AST SpaceMobile等業者已相繼投入低軌衛星市場，帶動全球衛星通訊商業模式蓬勃發展，由傳統政府、海事及特殊任務市場，逐步擴展至一般公眾與企業服務、衛星直連手機與災害備援等多元應用場景。然而，低軌衛星與地面行動網路之異質網路整合，也使頻譜共享、干擾治理、跨境協調、執照管理及市場競爭等議題更加複雜。面對此發展趨勢，美國、英國、加拿大、日本等世界主要國家已陸續展開B5G/6G政策布局，並針對衛星直連手機等新興服務監理制度進行調整。我國如何在B5G/6G技術浪潮中，持續促進產業發展與科技創新，同時兼顧頻譜效率、通訊韌性、公共安全、太空永續及公平競爭，將成為未來B5G/6G時代電信監理政策的重要課題。《台經月刊》專題即從技術架構、產業布局、國際政策趨勢及監理制度挑戰等面向出發，探討低軌衛星與次世代通訊網路融合下之發展方向及政策啟示，期望藉由本期專題研析，協助我國資通訊產業界及早掌握全球B5G/6G技術演進、低軌衛星商業模式及主要國家產業布局之最新趨勢，在B5G/6G時代所帶動之新興商機下，奠定我國次世代通訊產業發展基礎及前瞻性未來。

這本書以回應108課綱「自發、互動、共好」的理念出發，迎接身心障礙者權利公約（CRPD）國內法化後帶給身心障礙教育領域素養導向課程與教學的雙重挑戰，更加上新修訂特殊教育法令對融合教育的積極推動，重度障礙領域的教材教法勢必需要藉由積極且方向正確的調整，始能培養出兼具教育力、融合力、專業力及未來力的志業良師人才。這便是本書撰寫的初衷，也是一份跨校/跨域交流與合作的成果。這本書至少有下列幾項特色：（一）因應教育新政策―落實重度障礙教育領域課程與教學之典範轉移與實踐轉化教育部在師資職前培育階段推動教師專業素養指引與課程基準，推動學科領域教材教法研究，並鼓勵籌組各學科領域跨校教授社群，更推動師培教授至中小學進行教學研究活動，本書便是對前述教師專業成長新政策的積極回應。（二）轉化重度障礙教育核心素養―培養教師素養導向教學能力108課綱符膺國際教育發展趨勢，蘊含了前瞻的教育理念，勾勒「自主行動」、「溝通互動」、「社會參與」等三面九項的核心素養，期能培育未來社會的優秀人才。對於具有學習功能嚴重缺損的重度障礙學生，亦一本CRPD「平等不歧視、合理調整、通用設計」的精神，強調課程與教學能與普通教育接軌與融合，並善用各式科技，以達成有效教學及其附加價值。前述素養導向與數位科技應用能力，成為本書撰寫過程的雙主軸。（三）搭建師培殿堂與教學現場的橋樑 ― 大學師資培育者與中小學教育人員協力同行師資培育長久的困境之一，是大學所學理論知識（theory-based knowledge）與中小學臨床教學實務（experience-based knowledge）之間出現明顯的「學用落差」。如何搭起兩者間的橋樑，提升理論知識與臨床教學實務的跨域交流及專業對話，是本書全體作者的共識。尤其本書第三篇及第四篇對各領域（科目）教材教法的撰寫，有明確且結構化的規範―以個別重度障礙學生案例為中心，分別呈現不同教育階段、不同課程領域（科目）的有效教學原則與可行作為。更重要的是，絕大多數的章節均以跨域合作方式完成，使理論與實務獲得兼顧。（四）實踐跨專業團隊合作的原理原則 ― 社群成員與專業治療師的縝密合作重度障礙學生多數伴隨行動自主、溝通表達及社會情緒管理等多重且高密度的支持需求，除了學科知識的增能培力外，如何協助其改善或維護身體功能、構造，促進活動及參與，或提升教學及照顧者的便利性等，都與普通教育或強調學科學習扶助
