碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 運動與休閒管理研究所在職碩士班 === 98 === The purpose of this study was Based on environment and behavior studies and Post Occupancy Evaluation, the present study investigated maintenance and management of the Rome Square at National Taiwan Normal University and made concrete suggestions accordingly. The participant in this study was a superintendent of the Rome Square; the author of this study was a maintenance worker at the Square. On-site participation and observation were the research methods adopted by this study. The study results showed that, in terms of maintenance, the Rome Square needed to improve its irrigation facilities, sod revetment, planting management, drainage system and service facilities. In addition, the staff lounge was small with poor ventilation and reduced drinking water quality, and this affected the health of the maintenance staff. This study suggested that the Rome Square’s irrigation facilities be improved and more drain openings installed. Trash cans should also be provided to reduce littering. A suggestion regarding management was that the existing sod and soil covering the Rome Square should be replaced with a different type. This would reinforce the role of the Rome Square as part of a beautiful campus. The Rome Square at National Taiwan Normal University is a public space. Overall, the architecture and landscaping of Rome Square no longer satisfies its users due to changes in campus socialization, free atmosphere and environmental behavior throughout the years. Based on Post Occupancy Evaluation and environmental behavior, this study aimed at identifying suitable user behavior at the Rome Square and providing suggestions for future improvements, reconstruction, maintenance and management of the Square. As one of the Rome Square’s maintenance staff, the author studied the Square and the related environmental behavior through years of on-site observation and data collection and analysis. The study results may serve as a reliable and important reference for the University.
