Summary:碩士 === 淡江大學 === 教育科技學系碩士班 === 100 === WebQuest is a common way of learning. However, the learning process often makes learners lose directions in various Internet resources. Studies show that appropriate metacognition leads to overall learning outcome duringusing WebQuest. Therefore, this study integrates concept mapping strategies with WebQuest to investigate the impact on Metacognition. This study aims atexamine the differences of metacognition status between two groups of learners with or without Integrating WebQuest with Concept Mapping Strategies. The findings are as follows: 1.Among the subsets of the questionnaire, the planning subset is significant by using ANCOVA and t-test. That is, the quantitative result shows that experimental group has positive influence than the control group. 2.Through the interviews and feedback on Moodle from the students, the study found that integrating Concept Mapping Strategiesin WebQuest activity had positive benefittoward the learners’ metacognition.This study also found that qualitative research method is a better choice to analyze learners’ metacognition for examining the change and causes. 3.Moreover, this study found that the experimental group has no significant difference between students with higher scores or lower scores through the comparison of the concept maps. On the other hand, the learners with positive feedback portrait more completed concept map, and vice versa.
