運用WebQuest於國小五年級進行石門水庫水資源環境教育之研究

Abstract

本研究旨在探索運用WebQuest教學模式設計出WebQuest教學網站，於國小實施石門水庫水資源環境教育單元教學之可行性，研究者除了反思在教學過程中所遇到的可能困難或問題，並分析學生對於運用WebQuest教學模式於水資源環境教育之學習成效及反應。 本研究以台北市士林區某國小五年級一個班級共25位學生為研究對象。在研究的過程中，除了以教學觀察、教學錄影、訪談資料與各項學習文件等分析蒐集資料，並利用水資源環境教育知識、態度與行為意向之結構式問卷進行教學前、後測的學習成效分析，以瞭解國小五年級學童在WebQuest教學模式介入下，對學習水資源環境教育的學習成效。主要的研究結果如下： 一、學生進行課程教學後，在集水區水資源環境知識、態度及行為量表的表現均有顯著提升。顯示運用WebQuest教學網站進行網路探究學習之後，有助於學童在水資源環境知識、態度、行為的學習。 二、本研究運用WebQuest教學網站作為學童的學習樞紐，依照網站的學習步驟，搭配教學內容發展的相關輔助教材，學生學習效果良好，有八成以上學生認同並接受此種學習方式。 三、教學設計者運用WebQuest模式教學，有助於提升實施網路探究模式融入教學的專業能力。 根據上述研究結果，建議未來研究者可以運用WebQuest理論，設計相關的WebQuest教學網站，並廣泛應用於各領域的教學中。研究者並提出教學上及未來研究上進一步的建議，以供教育相關人士作為參考。

The purpose of this research aims to explore the feasibility of the implementation of elementary-school level instruction on “Shihmen Reservoir Related Water Rescources Environmental Education” via a WebQuest teaching website designed based on the WebQuest teaching model. The researcher reflects on the possible difficulties and analyzes both the effects of the instruction and responses of the students. The sample of this research is a fifth-grade class of 25 students in Taipei. The research process includes in-class observation, instruction video-taping, interview, and study material analysis. In order to find the effects of the WebQuest-assisted water-resource-related environmental education on fifth-graders, pre- and post- instruction analyses on the students’knowledge, attitude, and behavior are also included. The findings are summarized as follows: 1. Significant progress in students’knowledge, attitude, and behavior shows the effectiveness of the website-assisted instruction on water-resource-related environmental education. 2. Eighty percent of the students in this research find it helpful and favorable to learn according to the instruction procedure of the website accompanied by related auxiliary materials. 3. After applying the WebQuest teaching model to the instruction, teaching planners’ professional abilities have also improved in guiding students to explore via the internet. Based on the above findings, future researchers are advised to utilize the WebQuest teaching model to create websites in a wide spectrum of subjects. Further suggestions for instruction and future research are also provided for the reference of education workers.
