Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立彰化師範大學 === 工業教育與技術學系 === 98 === The purpose of this study was to investigate whether cooperative-learning teaching method applied in electronics practice course of electronics department in vocational high school has the function of promoting learning effectiveness. Meanwhile, after the experiment, questionnaires were used to understand the peer-interaction among the students of the experimental groups. Through literature discussion, the study first constructed the foundation of theory. The definition of cooperative-learning teaching method, the connotation, the pattern, the implementation flow and domestic and foreign study findings were then studied and defined. “Student’s Team Achievement Division, STAD” of cooperative-learning teaching method was then conducted in experimental teaching to obtain the purpose of this study. This study was a standard quasi-experiment research. The samples contained 42 students in electronics department in vocational high school. The students were divided into two groups: experimental group and control group. The experimental group was taught with cooperative-learning teaching method, while the control group was taught with traditional teaching method. This experimental teaching lasted for eight weeks. The instruments of this study included discipline paper, practical paper, and “Electronics Practice Peer-Interaction Sale”. The analysis was based on independent sample t-test, one-way analysis of co-variance, and the descriptive statistics. The findings of this study were as follows: 1. There was no remarkable difference in theoretical learning effectiveness between the students taught with cooperative-learning teaching method and those instructed with traditional teaching method in electronics pratice course in vocational high school. 2. Remarkable difference in skill learning effectiveness was found between students taught with cooperative-learning teaching method and those instructed with traditional teaching method in electronics pratice course in vocational high school. 3.The overall academic achievement of the students taught with cooperative-learning teaching method was better than that of those instructed with traditional teaching method in electronics pratice course in vocational high school. 4. There was some positive effect on students’ peer-interaction when cooperative-learning teaching method was applied in electronics pratice course in vocational high school.
