A study of elementary school students¡¦ perception of the NSTM imageChen, Ying-Ju 13 February 2007 (has links)
The National Science and Technology Museum (NSTM) is the largest science museum in southern Taiwan. Besides the main functions of research, collection, education and exhibition, it is crucial for the museum to find out its strengths and weakness through image analysis. Since the NSTM is also an educational organization, it is necessary to listen to its visitors in particular to students from local school. Getting a better understanding of the target audience will help the museum to promote a positive image and attract more attention from students.
The purpose of the study was to investigate students¡¦ perception of the NSTM image. Especially, the objectives of the study were described as follows:
1.To identify the dimensions of elementary school students¡¦ perception of the NSTM image.
2.To explore factors that influence students¡¦ perception of the NSTM image.
3.To help the NSTM to develop its own image.
4.To provide the NSTM with suggestions for future development to attract more students to be a frequent user.
Related literature was reviewed to identify the various dimensions and components of students¡¦ perception of the NSTM image for developing the survey instrument. The sample was selected from elementary school students in Kaohsiung Area. Totally, 390 questionnaries were distributed to fifth and sixth grades and 309 valid ones retured. The main findings of the study were:
1.The dimensions of students¡¦ perception of the NSTM image included product, advertisement and facility, learning and layout, supporting services, and environment impression.
2.Distance between schools and the NSTM influenced students¡¦ perception of the NSTM image.
3.Parents' educational backgrounds affected students¡¦ perception of the NSTM image.
4.Students do not have sufficient information about the activities and exhibition of the NSTM.
Each museum has an image in visitors¡¦ mind which influences the decision to visit or not. This study provided a piece of puzzle for the NSTM to better understand its visitors. It was expected the museum can develop a more appropriate learning and leisure environment for upper elementary school students.

An Investigation of Elementary School Students' Positive Thinking, Personality and CreativityLin, Chia-Jung 17 August 2012 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the significant differences and relations of elementary schools¡¦ students¡¦ positive thinking, personality traits, and creativity.
Five hundred and twenty-nine elementary schools¡¦ students were stratified random sampling from Kaohsiung City. All participants completed the instruments of The Elementary School Student Positive Thinking Scale (ESPTS), The Big Five Inventory and Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking (TTCT). A confirmatory factor analysis, t-tests, analysis of variance (ANOVA), and Pearson product-moment correlation were conducted to assess the similarities and differences among different background variables. The main findings were as follows:
1. Girls¡¦ positive thinking means was significantly higher than the boys.
2. The first born children¡¦s positive thinking mean score was significantly higher than the other born orders children.
3. Students who living with parents presented significantly higher positive thinking means than these students who living with grandparents or elder.
4. Children came from father with democratic practice presented significantly higher positive thinking scores than these children with authoritarian father practices.
5. Girls¡¦ mean score on Agreeableness and Openness was significantly higher than the boys.
6. The single child¡¦ mean on Openness presented significantly higher than the first-born children and later-born children
7. Fourth graders¡¦ mean on creativity-fluency and creativity-originality was significantly higher than the 6th graders.
9. The single child¡¦s creativity mean was significantly higher than the other born order children.
10. Students¡¦ life-satisfaction means score was significant correlation with Creativity score.
11. Students¡¦ positive thinking was significant correlation with their Big-five personality score.
12. Students¡¦ Extraversion and Openness means were significant correlation with their
Creativity.
Implications of these findings for classroom instructions and future related researches are discussed.
Key Words: elementary school student; positive thinking; personality traits;
creativity.

The effect of pre-service teaching on student achievement using a co-teaching model at an elementary school in a large, urban school district in central FloridaMcHale, Walton 01 January 2015 (has links)
This study was focused on the effect of pre-service teaching utilizing a co-teaching model on student achievement at an elementary school in a large, urban school district in central Florida. The contribution of university student teachers (i.e., interns) to elementary school achievement was investigated. Specifically explored was the difference between student achievement scores in classes with interns who participated in a co-teaching model and interns in classes that did not employ any structured approach to intern teaching. The researcher compared seven classes that employed co-teaching, where the university intern teacher and master teacher remained in the class conducting instruction, to seven classes that had a more traditional approach to the intern teaching. The co-teaching intern model did not exert a significant effect, either positive or negative, on student achievement. Also investigated was the effect of an intern, utilizing any model, on student achievement scores, when compared to similar classes without the presence of an intern. The study utilized 14 classes with interns and 13 classes without interns; each group had populations of approximately 285 students. The presence of an intern did not exert a significant effect, either positive or negative, on student achievement. However, the data indicated that the presence of an intern could positively influence mathematics scores. Additionally, the impact of teacher quality and socio-economic status on student achievement in reading and mathematics were explored. The data revealed the value of the individual teacher significantly affected student success in reading and mathematics. In reading, socio-economic status also significantly affected student achievement.

年齡與注意力因素對於時間估計之影響 / Age, attention, and time estimation吳美瑤, Wu,Mei-yao Unknown Date (has links)
為了探討注意力與年齡因素對計時行為的影響,本實驗選用事前知道計時派典(prospective paradigm)與不涉及人為時間單位之知識的計時複製方式。針對注意力的因素,本研究採用雙重作業以操弄注意力資源集中或分散,檢測其對計時作業的影響。另針對年齡的因素,本研究比較低年級小學生、高年級小學生、及大學生成人三種不同年齡組的受試。
本研究利用四種計時作業,針對三個不同年齡層的受試進行對兩種不等的時距計時資料收集。計時作業及年齡因子的實驗設計採受試者間設計,而時距因子則採受試者內設計。研究結果發現(1)低年級組的計時準確性較高年級組或成人組差;(2)受試在雙重作業的計時表現的確較單一作業差,這個計時受干擾的結果,在複雜的雙重作業又較在簡單雙重作業明顯,且年紀愈小的受試所受干擾影響愈大;(3)三年齡層受試在雙重作業中皆有低估目標時距的現象,其中以低年級在複雜雙重作業中的低估程度最明顯;(4)低年級組的計時能力之穩定性較高年級或成人組低;(5)在無需對不斷出現之無意義刺激作偵測反應時,三年齡受試的計時準確性未受影響。
這些結果顯示計時的誤差的確隨著注意力需分派於非時間作業的增加,受試所複製的時距也隨之縮短。這項由於注意力分散所致的計時誤差在國小低年級組最明顯,但隨著年齡的成長及腦發展愈臻成熟,這項影響效果愈趨式微,致使計時的表現愈正確。
關鍵詞:時間複製、年齡與發展、雙重作業、注意力、小學生、純量計時 / The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the attention and age on time estimation based on the prospective timing paradigm. Four timing tasks, with different degrees of attentional requirement, were utilized to test timing of reproducing the target intervals in three groups of different ages including the lower-grade (M= 7.5 years), higher-grade (M= 11.2 years) elementary school students and adult (M= 20.1 years). The subjects in this work were asked to estimate a stimulus duration lasting for 7 or 14 s, during which they are required to either do or do not perform a concurrent non-temporal task. Thus, the experimental design for the present study was mixed with between-subject factors (age and task) and a within-subject factor (target interval). The results showed (1) the lower-grade children performed less accurate than the higher-grade children; (2) all subjects had worse timing performance in the dual-task condition than the single-task or control condition, which effect was most evident in the lower-grade children; (3) all subjects reproduced shorter interval as compared to the target interval, which effect was most apparently observed from the dual-task for the lower-grade children; (4) the lower-grade children had less reliability in timing; and (5) the effect of age on the single-task and control condition is not significant. Together, these data indicate that concurrent non-temporal task cause temporal reproduction shorter, especially under high attention demand in lower-grade children. In addition to the influence by the task complexity, the accuracy of timing estimation depends on the age.
Keywords: time reproduction、age and development、dual task、attention、elementary school student、Scalar expectancy theory(SET)

L’influence de la perte d’un parent et du deuil chez l’élève de niveau primaire sur sa réussite scolaireKhelfaoui, Idriss 02 1900 (has links)
La réussite scolaire au primaire est déterminante pour la réussite scolaire future de l’enfant. Certains éléments jouent un rôle important dans cette réussite comme la santé psychologique de l’élève et l’implication parentale. Ces dernières peuvent être ébranlées par certaines situations de la vie telle que le décès d’un parent. Ce mémoire porte sur une recherche qualitative effectuée auprès de trois élèves de niveau primaire régulier ayant perdu un parent au cours des deux dernières années. L’objectif de cette recherche est de connaître l’influence que peuvent avoir la perte parentale et le deuil chez l’élève sur sa réussite scolaire. Il existe peu de recherches qui ont été réalisées sur ce sujet et la plupart se sont principalement intéressées à l’influence des conséquences psychologiques du deuil sur la réussite scolaire. Dans le cadre de ce mémoire, nous avons décidé d’adopter une vision plus globale du développement de l’élève. Le projet de recherche s’intéresse non seulement à l’élève, mais aussi à ses parents et à son environnement scolaire. La recherche s’articule autour de trois concepts : le deuil, la réussite scolaire et l’implication scolaire.
La méthodologie utilisée repose sur une approche qualitative exploratoire et une analyse de contenu. Les participants étaient composés de trois élèves endeuillés et non-immigrants, âgés entre 7 et 10 ans, de leurs parents survivants (deux) et de leurs enseignants titulaires (trois). Les données ont été recueillies à travers des entrevues semi-dirigées avec tous les participants, les bulletins scolaires des enfants et les plans d’intervention scolaire.
Les résultats indiquent que les conséquences psychologiques du deuil peuvent avoir une influence négative sur la réussite scolaire des élèves du primaire. De plus, la perte parentale
semble influer négativement sur le niveau socio-économique de la famille et sur tous les types d’implication parentale, que ce soit la supervision des leçons, la communication école-famille ou la collaboration du parent avec la communauté. Ces éléments peuvent à leur tour avoir une influence négative sur la réussite scolaire. / Elementary school achievement is a determining factor for the student’s future academic success. Some elements, like student’s psychological health and parental involvement, might play an important role in school achievement but can be undermined by some life events such as parental loss. Our thesis has focused on a research conducted on 3 students of regular elementary school in Montreal, who lost a parent in the last two years. The research aim was to study the influence of both parental loss and bereavement on elementary school children’s school achievement. Few studies have been conducted on this subject and most of them have examined mainly the influence of bereavement’ psychological consequences on school achievement. In this research, we have adopted a global developmental approach by focusing on the student himself, his parents and his school environment. The research relies on three main concepts: bereavement, school achievement and parental involvement.
The methodology was based on an exploratory qualitative approach and on a content analysis. The participants consisted of 3 bereaved and non-immigrant children, aged between 7 and 10 years old; the surviving parent (2) and their teacher (3). Data had been collected through semi-structured interviews with all participants; children grade reports and school intervention plans.
Our findings show that bereavement’ psychological consequences may have a negative influence on school achievement. Moreover, parental loss seems to have a negative influence on student’ family social economic status and on all parental involvement types, including helping at home with homework, collaborating with the school and the community. All those elements may influence negatively school achievement.
