碩士 / 國立臺灣海洋大學 / 海洋環境資訊學系 / 99 / Solving the issue of water pollution needs to rely on proper construction of sewer systems. The objective of this paper is to incorporate the issue of sewage discharge into marine education at primary school and to promote the importance of sewage treatment to the ocean through national education.
Water resources recovery center at Hopin Island in Keelung City is used as an example. Questionnaires are issued to the parents of Hopin Elementary School students in order to understand their knowledge of and attitude towards this issue. Four courses of teaching experiments are conducted among fourth-grade students at Hopin Elementary School. Their learning results are analyzed. Lastly, questionnaires are distributed to teachers of five elementary schools nearby the sewage treatment plant in an attempt to understand the teaching status of and teachers’ attitude towards sewage discharge.
The results suggest that parents hold different opinions about the establishment of sewage treatment plant at Hopin Island by the government. Although parents’ knowledge about sewage discharge is not enough, they generally agree the inclusion of the issue in the course. In teaching experiments, students are highly willing to learn and the effects are good. Parents are invited to participate in outdoor teaching, which increases the opportunity of promote the issue. Teachers’ questionnaires indicate that sewage discharge is not currently stressed. Mostly, integrated teaching is conducted. The major factors of not being included in the teaching are lack of related knowledge, not enough teaching hours, and no teaching materials. However, most teachers agree that the issue of sewage discharge should be incorporated into marine education. They are willing to teach if proper plan of teaching is provided. Concluded, this study argues that the feasibility of incorporating the issue of sewage discharge into marine education at primary school is high, and the issue is worth promoting.
