臺北縣國小教師對學童近視預防的信念與相關教學行為之研究
Abstract
本論文的研究目的在探討臺北縣國小教師對學童近視預防的信念與相關教學行為之現況。以自編結構式問卷為工具,採立意取樣的方式選擇臺北縣二所國民小學之全校教師為研究對象,有效問卷共249份。本研究的重要結果如下:
一、研究對象的學童近視預防信念介於「同意」至「非常同意」之間,整體表現屬於中上。其中研究對象對於「近視的成因」了解,表現較差。而學童近視預防信念並不會因社會人口學變項的不同水準而有顯著差異。
二、研究對象的學童近視預防教學行為大部分介於「經常做到」至「總是做到」之間,整體表現屬於中上。而學童近視預防教學行為會因「年齡」、「任教總年資」、「擔任職務」、「婚姻狀況」及「有無子女」的不同水準而有顯著差異。整體而論,研究對象的年齡愈高,任教總年資愈長,擔任級任教師,已婚及有子女者,在指導學童近視預防教學行為上表現較佳。
三、研究對象的學童近視預防信念與學童近視預防教學行為呈正相關,達顯著水準;各分量表之間亦呈正相關,且全部達顯著水準。
四、研究對象是師範院校及研究所畢業者有較好的「學童近視預防信念」。研究對象年齡愈長者、擔任級任教師者、本人有近視者,對學童近視預防信念愈高者,有較好的「學童近視預防教學行為」。
本研究依結論提出對未來教育行政單位之建議與改進方針,以提高研究對象對學童近視預防的信念與相關教學行為的實施。
The purpose of this study was to examine the beliefs on student myopia prevention and related teaching behaviors of the elementary school teachers in Taipei County, Taiwan. A structural questionnaire was developed and utilized. The subjects comprised of all the teachers from two elementary schools chosen with judgment sampling. And 249 effective questionnaires were resulted. The major findings are as follows: 1. The overall level of the subjects’ beliefs on myopia prevention was above average, or somewhere between “agree” and “very agree”. Yet they performed less well on the understandings of “the causes of myopia”. In addition, there were no significant differences on the beliefs caused by social-demographic differences. 2. Most of the myopia prevention teaching behaviors fell between “often do” and “always do”, which was also above average. The differences in “age”, “seniority”, “assignment”, “marital status” and “parentage” showed significant correlations with the teaching behaviors, the more the better. 3. All of the subjects’ beliefs on student myopia prevention were positively and significantly correlated with their teaching behaviors. 4. Subjects who graduated from normal colleges, universities or graduate schools have better “beliefs on student myopia prevention”. Generally, the older subjects, the classroom teachers, the near-sighted and the ones who have higher myopia prevention beliefs performed better on “myopia prevention teaching behaviors”. In order to improve the implementation on student myopia prevention by elementary school teachers, some recommendations for the future educational administration and research were provided.
