學院概況

理學院設有數學系、物理學系、化學系、生命科學系、地球科學系、資訊工程學系6個系(均含學士、碩士及博士課程),及科學教育研究所、環境教育研究所、光電科技研究所及海洋環境科技就所4個獨立研究所,另設有生物多樣性國際研究生博士學位學程。全學院專任教師約180人,陣容十分堅強,無論師資、學術長現、社會貢獻與影響力均居全國之首。

特色

理學院位在國立臺灣師範大學分部校區內,座落於臺北市公館,佔地約10公頃,是個小而美的校園,內含國際會議廳、圖書館、實驗室、天文臺等完善設施。

理學院創院已逾六十年,在此堅固基礎上,理學院不僅在基礎科學上有豐碩的表現,更在臺灣許多研究中獨占鰲頭,曾孕育出五位中研院院士。近年來,更致力於跨領域研究,並在應用科技上加強與業界合作,院內教師每年均取得多項專利,所開發之商品廣泛應用於醫、藥、化妝品、食品加工業、農業、環保、資訊、教育產業及日常生活中。

在科學教育研究上,臺灣師大理學院之排名更高居世界第一,此外更有獨步全臺的科學教育中心,該中心就中學科學課程、科學教與學等方面從事研究與推廣服務;是全國人力最充足,設備最完善,具有良好服務品質的中心。

在理學院紮實、多元的研究基礎下,學生可依其性向、興趣做出寬廣之選擇,無論對其未來進入學術研究領域、教育界或工業界工作,均是絕佳選擇。

    Assessing creative problem solving with automated text grading
    (Elsevier, 2008-12-01) Wang, H. C.; Chang, C. Y.; Li, T. Y.
    The work aims to improve the assessment of creative problem-solving in science education by employing language technologies and computational–statistical machine learning methods to grade students’ natural language responses automatically. To evaluate constructs like creative problem-solving with validity, open-ended questions that elicit students’ constructed responses are beneficial. But the high cost required in manually grading constructed responses could become an obstacle in applying open-ended questions. In this study, automated grading schemes have been developed and evaluated in the context of secondary Earth science education. Empirical evaluations revealed that the automated grading schemes may reliably identify domain concepts embedded in students’ natural language responses with satisfactory inter-coder agreement against human coding in two sub-tasks of the test (Cohen’s Kappa = .65–.72). And when a single holistic score was computed for each student, machine-generated scores achieved high inter-rater reliability against human grading (Pearson’s r = .92). The reliable performance in automatic concept identification and numeric grading demonstrates the potential of using automated grading to support the use of open-ended questions in science assessments and enable new technologies for science learning.
