dc.description This study mainly explores from a multicultural perspective the Wushe Incident as it is presented in social studies textbooks in Taiwan, using the content analysis as research method. In the study of reliability and validity, this study employed literature on Seediq, Han, Japanese government views to develop categories and invited three raters to analyze reliability. Researchers selected 38 books for analysis, including fifth and sixth-grade social studies textbooks, junior high social studies textbooks, and high school history textbooks. This study explored descriptions of the Wushe Incident in social studies textbook and revelations concerned with the Wushe Incident in social studies textbook using multiple perspective analysis. The following conclusions were reached (1) Descriptions of the Wushe Incident in textbooks were simple and failed to present the complete cause as well as the development and consequences of the incident (2) Descriptions of the Wushe Incident in textbooks were told from the viewpoint of Han and this can easily cause students to construct a narrow understanding of the event. Finally, based on the conclusions reached, the researchers provided suggestions for textbook editors.
