The Research of Implementing Characteristic Education Curriculum to Young Children’s Moral Behavioral Performance：Take a Public Kindergarten in Taichung City as an Example

本研究目的旨在探討實施品德教育課程對於幼兒品德行為表現之影響，以自編問卷及品德教育課程為研究工具。採立意取樣，以臺中市某兩所公立幼稚園4-5歲幼兒為研\r究對象。採準實驗研究法，有效樣本數為60人。問卷調查資料，分別採用描述性與推論性統計進行分析與處理。結論如下：兩組幼兒在品德行為前測表現，依序是勇敢、誠實、負責、關懷。兩組幼兒在負責、勇敢、關懷與總量表前測分數未達顯著差異，而在誠實面向，對照組分數顯著優於實驗組。實驗組幼兒在接受了8週的品德教育課程後，其在品德行為四面向與總量表的後測分數均顯著優於對照組。品德教育課程介入後，實驗組幼兒在品德行為四面向與總量表的後測分數均顯著優於前測。研究發現品德教育介入對幼兒品德行為表現具有立即成效，因此建議政府及教育相關單位在推廣品德教育\r時，應由幼兒階段開始實施。

The results are below: In the pretest "characteristic behaviors", the experimental and the control groups scored highest in the dimension of "courageous", followed by "honest", "responsible",and "concerned". Before the experiment, the scores of the young children in experimental and control groups in the subscale of "responsible", "courageous", "concerned", and overall scale of young children's characteristic behaviors didn't show a sufficient difference, but the average scores of the control group in the aspect of "honest" were more significant better than the experimental group. After 8 weeks of the characteristic education intervention, young children in the experimental group scored significantly higher than those in the control group in all dimensions or overall scale of characteristic behaviors.
