中小學能源教育的現況調查－－我國高級中學教師的能源意識

A Study in Energy Awareness among the High School Teachers

1995年12月至1996年1月間我們對高中教師的現行能源教育課程及非能源意識實施問卷調查。調查對象有230人以上，他們在高級中學裡擔任理科或非理科教師。他們的能源一般之概念來說，約有百分之八十二的教師認為在高中能源及能源資源是必要且重要的課程，對能源之有限性，約有84%的教師認為地球之化石燃料，如媒、石油等將來因浪費而枯竭。對新開發的能源以太陽能為首位(62%)。對核能發電即28%的教師肯定其貢獻(增加核能發電)，26%的教師持反對之意見(要減少)，但45%的教師即欲維持現狀。這些對能源的態度與意識以SPSS來分析，且與日本高級中學教師來比較。

From December 1995 to January 1996, We conducted a survey on a current teaching curriculum of energy education and the awareness of energy targeting the high school teachers. The survey focused on over 230 teachers who teach Science or Non-Science course in high school. About the general energy conceptions, there were 82% of teachers recognized that the curriculum on energy and energy resources was needful and important to high school students. Awareness of the finite nature of, and need for, resources and energy, about 84% of teachers recognized that there is a limit to the earth's supply a fossil fuels such as coal and oil, and that they will be depleted sooner or later because of excessive use. For new energy resources, the solar was gained highest marks (62%) in another new energy resources. Attitudes toward the future nuclear power generations are interesting results. 28% of teachers recognized the contributions of nuclear power (should be increase) and 26% of teachers had opposite opinion (should be decrease), but 45% of teachers wanted to status in quo. Those attitudes and awareness on energy were analyzed by SPSS, then compared with awareness in Japanese high school teachers.
