以同儕回饋及專案導向式學習提升技職生之溝通能力與溝通高階思維能力：探究社群觀點

Utilizing Peer Feedback and Project Based Learning to Enhance Vocational School Students’Communication Skills and Communicational Higher Order Thinking Skills: Perspective of Community of Inquiry

對技職體系的學生而言，如何培養在職場上能順利勝任的能力，可說是其教育的重點之一。而在今日的職場環境裡，軟實力如溝通能力以及溝通高階思維能力的重要性與日俱增。然而，軟實力的培養往往有賴於大量的模仿以及練習才能有效發展。因此，本研究透由探究社群理論架構，以同儕回饋及專案導向式學習等方式，讓學習者透由實際的演練與觀察，以培養其溝通能力與溝通高階思維能力。結果發現學習者在課程後的面對陌生人、面對泛泛之交、或面對親友的溝通能力都有顯著的進步，而學習者在溝通高階思維能力中的解決問題能力、批判性思維能力、以及創造力也都有顯著的進步。本研究最後亦針對相關的貢獻以及限制進行說明。

It is critical for the students from the vocational school system to develop skills that can be applied directly in work place. In today’s modern world, soft skills like communication skills and higher order thinking skills are considered to be more critical than hard skill. However, these soft skills are not easily developed in traditional classroom setup because they require learning from observing and reflecting. Therefore, according to the community of inquiry framework, the study proposed the teaching method that combines peer feedback and project based learning to help students learn and practice their communication skills and higher order thinking skills. The result shows the teaching method may increase both sets of skills significantly. Therefore, educators could consider adopting such approach when developing students’abilities.
