Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 創造力發展碩士在職專班 === 105 === The purpose of research is to study the influence on reading and writing creativity and the effect of reading motivation and comprehension ability by using the six thinking hats into newspaper education. In this study, quasi-experimental research method is used to study the students in 7th and 8th graders. The subjects were divided into newspaper creative reading group (36 cases), cutting newspaper group (33 cases) and control group (37 cases). Four main research tools which are the Newly Created Thinking Test, the Writing Creation Thinking Scale, the Reading Comprehension Test Questions and the Reading Motivation Scale were used before and after the class. Besides, there are also the worksheets, teacher’s observation record in class and two questionnaire surveys, which are "Students' Newspaper Reading and Reading Habits" and "The Students’ Attitude toward Newspaper Reading classes”. The experimental results are as follows:
(1) In the “Writing Creation Thinking Scale”, the three different teaching methods have no interaction with the pre- and post-tests. Except for the “Idea Diversity”, the other dimensions are measured larger in the post-tests than in the pre-tests.
(2) The total score in “Newly Created Thinking Test” shows that the newspaper creative reading group gets higher score in originality and flexibility than the control group; however, there are no differences in the score of fluency among the three groups.
(3) In the “Reading Comprehension Test Questions”, three groups are close to the level of significance, but the control group is better than the cutting newspaper group.
(4) In the “Reading Motivation” scale, the score of reading efficiency is close to the level of significance. The performance of newspaper creative reading group is better than that of cutting newspaper group. There are no differences in the other three degrees of “external motivation”, “internal motivation” and “reading efficiency”.
(5) Most students think that the newspaper reading class can increase their motivation and interests in studying reading.
(6) After the six thinking hats class, the students think the white hat is the most easily to used, while the blue hat is the most difficultly to used.
Finally, according to the result, I will give comments on the following study.
