臺灣學習者所尋求之理想的日語教師形象之研究－－以高職日語學習者為對象

A Study on the Image of an Outstanding Japanese Language Teachers in Taiwan: Focus on the Japanese Students of Vocational High School

臺灣從2014年8月開始義務教育延長為12年。高級職業學校為了能提高學生的升學率與求職競爭力，不斷追求教育品質的提升。特別是中等教育裡日語教師所應具備的行動特質為何，勢必將成為社會各界深切探討的議題。本研究著眼於學習者的角度，透過問卷發放，目的在分析理想的日語教師形象。其結果盼能對師資培育與教師自我進修，而有所啟發。本研究以臺灣某女子高級職業學校之日語專業及非日語專業科別的學習者562名為對象，有效樣本505名（89%）。由分析結果得知，最為學習者所追求的是教師與學習者間的貼心互動，另一方面，教師的教學資格、學位等則較不受重視。這意味著與其教師擁有崇高的身分和地位，倒不如在學生脆弱無助時，教師能以激勵或撫慰人心的話語之類、體貼用心的行動特質更為重要。從此結果來看，不僅止是大學生，職業學校的學生也渴求師生之間的互動。希冀本研究的調查結果提供我國中等教育之日語教學之參考。

Taiwan will begin implementing a 12-year compulsory education policy in August, 2014. The vocational high schools seek ways to actively promote teaching quality because of raising the level of competitiveness, such as the proportion for students to enter the university or college, the rate of employment. It would be aroused the discussing about the characteristics of behaviors of Japanese language teachers in the secondary education institutions. The purpose of this study is to examine the image of outstanding Japanese language teachers from the students' point of view by using the questionnaire. The results obtained herein can suggest a good reference for the teachers' education and self-improvement. This study surveyed the comments by 562 Japanese and non-Japanese Department students from a girls vocational high school in Taiwan. Analysis is based 505(89%) valid samples. As a result, most students care about the concern for interaction rather than the teaching certification or M.A. degree aspect of Japanese teachers. That means that most students wish Japanese teachers could give a hand to them in difficulty, rather than a great capacity for teaching Japanese language. The results showed not only undergraduates but also vocational high school students look after interacting with Japanese teachers. The results presented herein are useful reference to those teachers who teach Japanese as the second foreign language in vocational high school.
