單一課程融入跨領域主題式STEAM課程統整設計對大學生學科探究實作表現

Thematic Curriculum Integration to Improve the Interdisciplinary Performance of College Students

跨領域學習已成為全球人才培育的新趨勢，大學教學現場如何培育學生具備跨領域能力是重要課題。本研究以跨領域主題式課程統整之教學設計，建構出跨境電子商務平臺課程跨領域STEAM（Science,Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics）統整課程之知識地圖及規劃表，針對某科技大學選修平臺基礎課程的兩班學生，採準實驗研究，實驗組採上述教學設計，控制組採單一學科課程設計進行教學。研究結果顯示，實驗組在跨境電商統整知識測驗（知識表現）及上架商品至跨境電商平臺之系統評分（技能表現）的後測表現皆顯著高於控制組。本研究採用跨領域主題式STEAM課程統整之教學設計，不但整合不同領域知識（國際貿易流程、消費者行為、網路行銷、網頁製作技術、平臺操作技術、產品規格／材質／認證、產品標題與關鍵字優化、產品網頁／圖片／影片製作與美編等），亦整合知識、技能與實作，可提升學生跨領域知識統整、技能表現與平時參與度。此外，實驗組學生覺得課程教學模式可提高其學習興趣，亦對其問題解決能力與職場競爭力提升有所幫助。本研究發展的單一課程融入跨領域主題式STEAM課程統整之課程設計內涵，可供後續發展主題統整課程與教學實踐之參考。

Cross-disciplinary learning to cultivate interdisciplinary talent is a new trend in global education, particularly for university students. This research constructs a knowledge map of thematic curriculum integration by using science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics (STEAM) concepts in a cross-border e-commerce course. A quasi-experimental design was used in this study, and two classes were sampled. An instructional design for thematic curriculum integration with STEAM was adopted for the experimental group, and an instructional design for a single discipline was adopted in the control group. The results are as follows: (1) The learning performance of the experimental group was significantly better than that of the control group on a posttest (knowledge-based performance) as was the platform system rating for a product posted on the Alibaba e-commerce platform (skill-based performance); (2) The STEAM curriculum integrated knowledge from various fields. It also improved students’ cross-disciplinary knowledge and skills; (3) Students in the experimental group reported that the teaching model used in the course increased their interest in learning, problem-solving skills, and competitiveness in the workplace. The developed STEAM course design can be used as a reference for other interdisciplinary learning programs and for general teaching practices.
