臺灣地區高職印刷科課程發展研究

本研究目的在瞭解「電腦高科技」技術影響下，傳統印刷工藝技術的變遷。及當前印刷技術職業教育的實施，在技睮教學上是否能夠配合印刷業界的需求，及就高職印刷科技術教學的優、劣點，和印刷業界對電腦高科技應用在印刷科技的要求等問題，加以分析研究。並根據「課程發展理論」，研究發展適合印刷業界需求、且與教育部87年公佈的高職印刷科課程標準相輔相成之科目，期能管為高職印刷科所採用為教學科間。本研究專案內發現：1.傳統印刷工藝已被電腦高科技的圖像處理技術取代。2.在高科技影響下，無水平版、調頻網點、多色（七）色印刷，數位印刷等，將是不可忽視的印刷技術趨勢。3.印前作業已經完全「電腦數位化」、自動化。網路的發展對印刷行業日益重要。4.高職學校印刷科課程與設備並不符合印刷業界的人力需求，亟需改進。
本研究計劃外又有新的發現，也提供結論與建議。

The objectives of this research are :1) To study the evolution of traditional printing technology with the innovation of modern computer technology. 2) To survey whether today’s technology education can meet the requirement from the printing industry. 3) To analyze the pros and cons of the application of computer technology in the Printing Department at vocational high schools. 4) To propose proper courses of Printing Department for Taiwan area vocational high school.
There are some findings in the research: 1) Traditional printing technologies has been gradually replaced by the modern image processing technique. 2) With the rapid innovation of computer technology, there are some breakthroughs in the printing technology, which are the inevitable trends for future printing technology. 3) Pre-press process has been carried out through in digital manners today. Press and post-press process become computerized and automatic. Network technology is more and more important for printing industry. 4) Current curriculum design in Print Department at vocational high school can not meet the requirement form the industry any more.
There are other findings in this research been stated, also some conclusions and suggestions including this research report.
