In Taiwan, do aboriginal students experience more well-being when studying in a class composed of entirely students of the same ethnicity or in an integrated class? Do they experience more well-being when instructed by aboriginal teachers or non-aboriginal teachers? Answers to these important issues are academically valuable and can be of important reference for future educational decisions and student guidance, but they are rarely explored in domestic studies. In this study a survey was conducted on junior high school students in Taitung in 2005. Hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) was adopted to test the impact of different ethnic compositions on students’ well-being. Results show that students’ well-being was not significantly affected by class of ethnic mix of teachers and students, but high ratios of aboriginal students in a class are more advantageous to students’ sense of achievement in that class. Further analysis indicates that high ratio of aboriginal students in a class is not significantly influential to non-aboriginal students’ sense of achievement but advantageous to the well-being of aboriginal students in the class. |
