碩士 === 國立高雄師範大學 === 科學教育暨環境教育研究所 === 104 === The purpose of this study is to investigate 6th to 8th grades students’ critical thinking about environmental and nuclear energy issues by Web-based Inquiry Science Environment (WISE). In WISE, this study integrated the issues about environmental education into 6th to 8th grades curriculums, such as “divergence and precaution curriculum” and “biology and environmental currirulum”. Besides, students need to play opposite roles of benefits to bring up their comments about environmental and nuclear energy questions. There are ninty-seven students participated in this study (6th grade students = 45 students; 7th to 8th grades students = 52 students). The results of this study show that elementary school students can suggest multiple reflect comments, but the qualities of comments are not good enough. On the other hand, the junior high school students’ comments are more coherence and higher quality than elementary school students. The furtherdiscussions and implications will be discussed in this study.
