The MOE calls it the "year hopping" plan. The integrated curriculum was already introduced in first grade at elementary schools throughout Taiwan during the current 2001-2002 school year, which began last September. Beginning in September 2002, the MOE intends to additionally implement it in grades one, four, and seven.
所謂「跳躍式」設計是這樣的：繼民國九十年九月全國國小一年級正式實施「九年一貫」後，今年九月，一、四、七等三個年級也將加入，連同升上小二的本屆小一新生，共計四個年級的課程將換新裝。
