In this study, we collaborated with 4 school teachers of different disciplines, developed a thematic curriculum and delivered to pupils of “Exploring World Geography” winter camp at National Science and Technology Museum. We applied the techniques of collaborative learning, team teaching, and information technology integration on the class; then we collected and analyzed quantitative and qualitative data to understand and develop the insight of the program. For the program design, we found that team consensus building is the priority, time management and effective communication is critical for team working, and the museum staff should demonstrate leadership. As to the class implementation, we found that different lecturers produced novel effect, the effects of edutainment might help students experience mind flow, and team teaching improved teaching effectiveness. As to student achievement, after comparing the pre- and post-test, we found that students performed well in our structured testing. And we suggested that program implementation timeline could be extended, multiple assessment methods can be applied, and oligarchy-alike division of powers should be prevented. In conclusion, the program in this study might improve teacher proficiency. For future implementation in museums, practitioners should consider the costs and the teacher-centered team composition. |
