碩士 / 國立臺北教育大學 / 自然科學教育學系 / 106 / The study focuses on exploring the effect of the outdoors learning at National Museum of Marine Science & Technology (NMMST) on college students’ cognition, attitude, and behavior to the marine education.
This study adapts a quasi-experimental design, with the research experiment group of the students taking the optional courses of environmental education at a national university in Taipei City. The control group is composed of other students, who take the courses of Safety and Hygiene Management at the same university. All the courses are under the instruction of Prof. Hsin, Huai-Tzu. The control group’s courses mainly focus on general topics of Safety and Hygiene Management and didn’t provide them with such outdoors learning.
The researcher complied the cognitive questionnaire, the attitude scale, and the behavior scale and, at the same time, I also used the learning lists of these courses as a reference in this study. All the questionnaires and scales were completed before and after the courses. The study also took advantage of the statistical software to analyze the data of these questionnaires and scales.
The findings of this study are as follow:
1. After the outdoors learning in NMMST, the students of the experiment group have a significant increase in their cognition, attitude, and behavior of marine education. This increases could be contributed to the positive result of this outdoors learning in NMMST.
2. The results of this study shows that there is a low correlation between the cognition and the attitude of marine education, no correlation between the cognition and behavior of marine education, and a middle correlation between the attitude and behavior of marine education, before and after taking these courses.
According to these findings of this study, the author made following suggestion: “in the future, when teachers design their outdoors learning of marine education, they should include more environment activities and field observations about marine creatures.” The reason is that, according to my research finding, when we added more explanation and expression into the navigation of our outdoors learning in NMMST, students were more interested in these exhibitions. Schools should arrange courses and outdoors learning about marine education, which do promote not only the marine education itself but also the undergraduates’ attitude and behavior to marine environment.
