國小師資生核心能力發展與師資職能課程建構之探討

A Study of Pre-service Elementary Teacher Students’ Core Competences Development and the Construction of Employability-oriented Teacher Education Program

國內自2004年起開始出現教師缺額遠低於師資培育供給量並因此衍生大量流浪教師問題，此促使師資培育機構應以檢視課程規劃及強化培訓等方式以尋求因應作法。此研究以一所國立大學師資培育中心之國小教育學程為案例，藉由在校學生、校友、及雇主三方之意見回饋，以評估建構能符應教學職場需求之教育目標、學生核心能力、及課程規劃。此研究採用問卷調查法，回收有效問卷共237份；研究結果發現：一、學生、校友、及雇主對小教學程教育目標與核心能力符合目前小教職場專業能力，及課程規劃符合小教學程核心能力發展之看法有顯著差異；二、學生、校友、及雇主對小教學程教育目標與核心能力應致力於發展專業知能之看法一致，但對課程重要性之看法不太一致；三、學生、校友、及雇主對偏鄉小學教師應具備弱勢關懷素養並以參與研習營為最佳進修增能活動之看法一致。

There has been an imbalance between the demand and supply of teaching workforce since 2004 in Taiwan， and so many newly qualified teachers have been left out of teaching workplace. Hence， there is a need for teacher training institutes to evaluate their curriculum planning and enhance students’ training. This research aimed to focus on one pre-service elementary teacher education program provided by one teacher training institute at a national university. A questionnaire survey was conducted with undergraduates， alumni and their employers for their opinions on the educational targets， core competences， and curriculum planning set for this program. The total research samples included in this research are 237; it is found: 1. There is a significant difference between 3 groups of research samples on the educational targets and core competences meeting the professional demands required for elementary schools， and curriculum planning meeting the core competences development; 2. There is a consistent agreement among 3 groups of research samples on the importance of educational targets and core competences for developing students’ profession， but there is an inconsistent agreement on the importance of curriculum planning; 3. There is a consistent agreement among 3 groups of research samples on the teachers teaching at remote schools to have compassion for disadvantaged groups and their profession can be aided by attending seminars.
