Specifically, it investigates in depth the following major issues: (a) senior high school military training instructors’ viewpoints on the implementation of the all-out defense education in senior high schools, (b) these instructors’ thoughts on their transfer to national defense education instructors in the future, and (c) the impact of the aforementioned transfer on senior high schools as a whole.
The major research tool for this study is a survey questionnaire designed by the researcher entitled: “Questionnaire on the current work status and transformational position of the military training instructors in senior high schools ”. A total of 440 questionnaires were administered to those who are actively involved in the military training courses in senior high schools in Taipei city, with a high return rate (84.8%; or 373 valid returned questionnaires). The collected data were then carefully analyzed by the researcher, using statistical packages such as descriptive statistics, independent samples t-Test and one-way ANOVA, etc.
Based on the literature review and the findings of the questionnaire survey, the viewpoints of the military training instructors of the senior high school’s in Taipei city on the three major issues can be summarized as follows:
