| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 音樂研究所 === 91 === This study aims to discuss the training and contests of recorder ensemble in the junior high school as well as the work stress of the recorder ensemble teachers. The self-compiled questionnaires of “Research on the Training and Contests of recorder ensemble in the Junior High School” were distributed to the recorder ensemble teachers at junior high schools who are in charge of the 2002 “National Music Contest for Students.” After collecting and sorting, the researcher ran SPSS 10.0 for the 153 effective questionnaires. Through Descriptive Statistics (frequency distribution method, arithmetic mean, and standard deviation), One-way Anova, and Scheffe Method, we conclude the findings as follows:
I.The recorder ensemble teachers in the junior high schools with the class number under than 40 undertake more responsibilities than those working for schools with the class number more than 41 do.
II.The junior high schools located in urban areas tend to expect higher performance in contests than those in rural areas do.
III.The recorder ensemble teachers with 11-20 year long working experience identify themselves more with the flute groups than those with working experience less than 10 years do.
IV.The schools, peer recorder ensemble teachers, class teachers, and parents of students tend to give more support and encouragement for those with more than 21-year long teaching experience than those who work less than 10 and between 11-20 years.
V.The recorder ensemble teachers in junior high schools highly recognize “the educational purpose of recorder ensemble ” and “the educational function of inter-school music contests.” The levels of recognition on “skill instruction,” “teaching,” “learning,” “organizational operation,” and “recruitment of members” have reached middle to high; “encouragement and support” has the lowest level of recognition.
VI.The recorder ensemble teachers in junior high schools identify “teachers’ expectation,” “teacher’s workload,” “time pressure,” and “contest songs and themes” as the sources of stress.
VII.The discussion on the comparison of the 2002 excellence award winning and non award winning recorder ensemble of junior high schools:
1.The award-winning group has more than half members who have learnt other instrument and they are more experienced in music instrument learning than others.
2.The award winning group required six classes of practice time per week during the preparation period and more than three classes of practice during normal time. Apparently, they spend more time on practice than others.
3.The award winning group has done a better job on the choosing of leader and deputy leader, group activities, organizational operation, and so on.
4.The award-winning group tends to be more experienced and frequent winners of music contests.
5.The award-winning group has higher sense of identification with the group than others.
6.The award-winning group offers better compensation of the reduction of hours and increasing payment.
7.The recorder ensemble teacher of the award-winning group has higher sense of achievement.
8.The members of other recorder ensemble showed negative response to “over practice and the deprival of students’ interest in music.
The research findings does not only serve as the reference for educational administration and teachers of recorder ensemble in the regard of music contest planning, preparation, and participation, but also provide suggestion for relevant studies in the future.
