體驗式學習營隊之發展歷程研究─以A協會暑期長隊為例

Abstract

本研究目的為探討A協會辦理體驗式學習營隊之發展歷程，以及工作者在體驗式學習營隊中所面臨的困境和因應的方式，屬於個案研究。主要針對A協會暑期長隊之工作者進行訪談，以作為未來研究與實務工作之參考。 研究結果發現，Ａ協會在經歷「草創期」、「前穩定期」、「試驗期」、「後穩定期」四個階段後，發展出目前所使用的活動設計流程。同時也整理出體驗式學習營隊工作者分別在「引導員工作上的困難」、「行政事務上的問題」和「行政衝突」所面臨的困境，並統整工作者面臨困境時「自我調適」、「夥伴的支持與協助」、「督導協助」與「經驗累積」四種管道能舒緩工作時的壓力。此外，研究也歸納出「營隊工作本身」、「工作者個人因素」和「外在環境」三種阻礙工作者再次參加營隊的類型。 在研究的最後，我們能透過A協會十年辦理體驗式學習營隊之經驗裡，發現體驗式學習營隊實務工作建議。The objective of this study is to investigate the development process of experimental learning camps organized by A Association as well as the difficult situations and coping methods that have been encountered and used by the staff members of the experimental learning camps. Using the case study approach, this study mainly analyzes data collected from interviews with the staff members in A Association’s long-term summer camps to obtain suggestions that can be a reference for future researchers and practitioners. The results indicate that the association developed its current activity design process after progressing through four periods, including “the initial period”, “the pre-stable period”, “the trial period”, and “the post-stable period”. Besides, the difficult situations encountered by the staff members include “work difficulties for guides”, “problems in administrative affairs”, and “administrative conflicts”. When faced with difficult situations, they have four main approaches to relieving the stress, including “self adaptation”, “peer support and assistance”, “supervisor assistance”, and “accumulation of experience”. This study also summarizes three types of barriers to camp re-participation, including “camp-related factors”, “personal factors”, and “the external environment”. Finally, based on A Association’s 10-year experience in the organization of experiential learning camps, this study provides suggestions with regard to the practice of organizing experiential learning camps.
