以Q方法探討教保員運用數位健康教學之調查研究

A Study on the Preschool Educators Towards the Practice in Digital Health Teaching Using Q-Sorts

近幾年各國均倡導適當使用數位技術，然而，教保員於幼兒園數位健康教學之議題仍有探討的空間。據此，本研究欲了解教保員對於數位健康教學可能的需求及類型，因此聚焦於教保員對運用數位健康教學之主觀看法，透過Q方法進行分析，並根據因素分析結果提出研究對象的需求類型及相關建議。研究對象採便利取樣方式，以雙北市教保員35位：男性4位（11.4%）、女性31位（88.6%），透過質量並重、專為探討主觀態度及價值觀的Q方法進行，深入探索受訪者於各構面間觀點的差異，並更完整地表達其主觀意識。本研究為教保員數位健康教學需求之初探性研究，根據Q方法因素分析提出教保員對於數位健康教學的四種需求類型：師生互動論、增能支持論、數位資源管理論及社群分享論，確認教保員對於數位健康教學的需求類型，有助於釐清教保員進行數位健康教學的可能因素及必要的支持。本研究藉此初步打開教保員對於數位健康教學需求的迷宮，試圖探究此領域的理論研究與實務應用，以有效提升教保員健康教學的成效。

In recent years, countries around the world have advocated for the appropriate use of digital technology. However, there is still room for further exploration of preschool educators’ role in digital health teaching in kindergartens. Therefore, this study aims to understand the potential needs and types of digital health teaching from the perspective of preschool educators. It focuses on their subjective views regarding the use of digital health teaching and analyzes these perspectives using the Q-method. Based on the results of factor analysis, the study identifies the types of needs and provides relevant recommendations. The study sample was selected using convenience sampling, involving 35 preschool educators from Taipei and New Taipei City, including 4 males (11.4%) and 31 females (88.6%). The Q-method, which emphasizes both qualitative and quantitative analysis and is designed to explore subjective attitudes and values, was used to delve into the differences in perspectives among the respondents and to express their subjective awareness more comprehensively. This research serves as a preliminary study on the needs of preschool educators in digital health teaching. Through factor analysis of the Q-method, four types of needs were identified: teacher-student interaction theory, capacity enhancement support theory, digital resource management proponents, and community sharing proponents. Identifying these types of needs helps clarify the possible factors and necessary support for preschool educators in implementing digital health teaching. This study seeks to unravel the complexity of preschool educators’ needs in digital health teaching, aiming to contribute to theoretical research and practical applications in this field, thereby improving the effectiveness of health teaching for preschool educators.
