臺灣博碩士論文加值系統

本研究的主旨在評估融合科學史於國中理化科教學的可行性，研究目的有
三： 一、對現行國中理化教科書以科學史的角度進行內容分析；二、
瞭解國中理化教 師對融合科學史於國中理化科教學的意見；三、商請三
位個案教師對科學史實驗 教材提供改進的意見。

依據上述三個研究目的，本研究分別採取內容分析法、問卷調查法和訪問
調 查法，另外並發展了兩種教師問卷和一份科學史實驗教材。內容分析
是以力學部 份為範圍，問卷調查則從台灣南區的國中理化教師中抽樣，
然後商請三位願意幫 忙的國中理化教師審查科學史實驗教材。

研究的結果發現：

一、內容分析部份：現行國中理化教科書的力學部份，科學史所佔的面積
百 分比只有2.99％；而且，僅有的敘述也嫌簡略，除非教師具備豐富的
科學史素 養能自行補充，否則無法發揮科學史的多重教學功能。
二、問卷調查部份：多數的教師喜歡探討科學史並有尋找科學史、哲資料
的 經驗，但在理化教學上並不經常應用科學史。「舉生活實例」是教師
們最常用的 教學方式，「加入科學史教材」則尚未受到教師們的重視。
由問卷的分析顯示， 融合科學史於實際教學仍有現實的障礙，即缺乏現
成合適的科學史教材和教師們 不瞭解科學史，「國中理化教科書應以科
學史為導向」也還未達成共識。 三、科學史實驗教材部份：
本研究所發展的科學史實驗教材經三位個案教師 的建議，尚待改進。應
繼續發展學生用教材，整合 STS 及多引用有理論根據的

The theme of this research was to evaluate the probability of
incorporating history of science(HOFS)with physical science (PS)
teaching in secondary schools. The purposes of this research
were as follows. First, we analyzed the content in current
PS textbooks with the view of HOFS. Second, we tried to
understand the opinions of PS teachers in secondary
schools about incorporating HOFS with PS teaching. Third, we
asked for three case teachers to offer better opinions for the
experimental teaching material(ETM).

According to the three purposes above, this research adopted
three methods-content analysis, questionnaire survey, and
interview survey. Besides, we developed two kinds of
questionnaires for teachers and an ETM incorporated with HOFS.
Mechanics was the scope of content analysis. For
questionnaire survey ,we found the samples from the PS teachers
in southern Taiwan secondary schools and then asked for
three willing PS teachers to examine the ETM.

The results of this research are:

1. Content analysis

Of the portion of mechanics in current PS textbooks in secondary
schools, the area percentage about HOFS is only 2.99％. And,
the only description is over-simplified. Unless teachers
themselves have profound literacy of HOFS to
supplement the teaching material, the multiple teaching
functions of HOFS can''t be very effective. 2.
Questionnaire survey

Most teachers enjoy exploring HOFS and have the experience of
looking for the material about history and philosophy of
science. However, they seldom apply HOFS in their teaching.
Of the teaching methods, giving examples is used most
frequently; however, adding HOFS has not been valued by
teachers. The analysis of queationnaire survey shows that there
are still some practical obstacles to incorporate HOFS with
teaching. That is, we lack the ready-made suitable teaching
material incorporated with HOFS and teachers do not
understand HOFS. Furthermore, the assertion that PS
textbooks in secondary schools should be HOFS-directed has not
come to an agreement.

3. ETM Incorporated with HOFS

According to the suggestions from the three case teachers, the
ETM incorporated with HOFS developed by this research still
needs to be improved. We should continue developing the
teaching material for students, combining with STS, and
quoting more information of Chinese science history based
on theory.
