Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 社會教育學系在職進修碩士班 === 93 === Abstract Our objective of the thesis is to understand the following question: While music teachers develop courses on Taiwan traditional music, what information do they expect from databases? We surveyed the opinions of music teachers of the public/private high/vocational school in Taipei County by questionnaires. We also interviewed scholars and experts specializing on the field. Here are our results: 1. The priority of subjects (in decreasing order): We divide subjects in two categories: (1) The Han traditional music in Taiwan: Fulao folk songs, Chinese folk songs, Haka folk songs, Taiwanese Operas, and Taiwanese Palm Dramas. (2) The Taiwanese aboriginal traditional music: Amis traditional music, Bunun traditional music, Atayal traditional music, Tsou traditional music, and Paiwan traditional music. 2. The contents of the data: The music scores, the instruments to play them, the sources or the authors of the music, the legends with the music. 3. Functions of databases: They should provide basic search, links to related websites and directory browsing. 4. Conclusion: We have found that government institutions have been building some databases of the traditional music. But there are not sufficient in many respects. Obviously, music teachers are more used to hard-copy materials instead of electronic data. So we have the following suggestions: (1) Enrich contents of databases of traditional music. (2) Have finer classification of music data. (3) Provide training for music teachers to use computers and databases
