以APP為基之黏土輔導教學平台建置與評估

The Implementation and Evaluation of APP-Based Clay Tutorial Platform

隨著資訊科技不斷的進步，網路迅速發展，網路學習的多樣化功能與特性，突破了傳統教學的許多限制。學齡前幼兒在日常生活中，有越來越多的機會可以接觸資訊科技設備，例如：電腦、智慧型手機、平板電腦等。坊間幼教出版業者也紛紛針對幼兒園課程，提供電子書、互動式光碟等教材。近年APP程式也成為教育界最熱門的教學工具，教師們也開始思考設計教學用的APP程式，利用APP程式幫助學生更有效地學習知識。因此，本研究主要目的是以準實驗研究法來探究APP黏土輔導教學平台對學齡前幼兒學習之情形，實驗組幼兒透過本研究所建置之APP黏土輔導教學平台，以黏土為媒介進行黏土課程，其學習成就檢測成績有顯著提升，在後測檢測黏土學習的成效、追蹤測保留成效，以及學習興趣都明顯優於控制組。因此，「APP黏土教學平台」的教材教法，是值得開發和研究。希望本APP黏土輔導教學平台可持續發展，提供後續研究參考之依據。

As information technology continues to progress, the rapid development of Internet, diversified functions and features of E-Learning, it breaks many of the limitations of traditional teaching. There are more and more opportunities to reach information technology equipment, such as computers, smartphones, tablets, and so on in the daily lives of preschool children. Preschool printing publishing industry have also provided books, interactive CD-ROM and other materials for the kindergarten curriculum. In recent years, APP program has become the most popular teaching tool for educators. Teachers have begun to consider designing the APP programs for teaching and using APP programs to help students learn more effectively. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is applying quasi-experimental method to explore the circumstances of employing App-based clay tutorial platform for preschool children. According to the experimental results of this study, the learning performances as well as interest in learning of the children in the experimental group instructed through App-based clay tutorial platform are significantly better than those in the control group taught by traditional teaching. Therefore, the teaching materials and pedagogies of “App-based Clay Tutorial Platform” are worthy of development and research. Hope this App-based Clay Tutorial Platform is sustainable in development, and can be provided as a good reference for future study.
