| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立嘉義大學 === 教育學系研究所 === 106 === The purpose of this research is to apply the process of making scientific exhibitions to promote the concept of evidence and inquiry ability of senior students at the elementary schools, and to understand the problems and solutions in this teaching practice. The research method is a action research, the five senior students of the science exhibition are directed by the researcher. The content of the lecture is mainly to guide the students to implement the process of the science exhibition. The teaching course lasts nearly seven months. The teaching time is four classes a week and each class is 40 minutes. The collected data includes "Evidence Concept Tests, Inquiry Skills Questionnaires, Learning Experiences, Informal Interviews, Classroom Teacher-Student Dialogs, and Teacher Logs". The research shows that: after the teaching, five students improved the ability to understand the nature of evidence, the types of evidence, how to evaluate evidence and validity of evidence, and the scientific inquiry capabilities of “defining issues, design planning, practical verification, interpretation analysis, and communication and dialectical evidence”. All have been enhanced; in the process of teaching, teachers faced the problemsuch as students “cannot ask scientific questions, do not understand the cause of the change project, do not know how to design the experimental process, do not know how to perform the actual verification” etc. Through the action and reflection process, the educators adjusted and revised the teaching strategies with “question”, “description”, “examples” and “template copying” and the problem was solved.
