國小高年級生命教育課程發展之研究：以幸福感、感恩為核心

A study on the development of life education curriculum for upper elementary school students: Focusing on happiness and gratitude

台灣5-9年級學童生活滿意度持續下降，而研究指出，感恩可提升幸福感。本研究採準實驗研究法，並輔以焦點訪談。以臺南市志開實驗小學（實驗組）與成功國小（對照組）高年級共91名學生為對象，透過感恩與幸福感量表及訪談收集資料，以探討生命教育對高年級學生幸福感與感恩的影響、相關性及課程成效。實驗組的課程以「知足惜福、表達感恩」為核心，運用繪本、影片及體驗活動進行30節教學。結果顯示，實驗組學生幸福感有顯著提升，但感恩程度未達顯著差異，兩者均不因年級或性別而異。質性分析亦指出，課程能讓學生感到幸福並培養出感恩心。

This quasi-experimental study examined how a 30-session life education curriculum influenced well-being among 91 upper-grade Taiwanese elementary students. Against the backdrop of declining life satisfaction in grades 5-9, the experimental group received gratitude-focused lessons using picture books and experiential activities. Results showed participants demonstrated significantly improved well-being, though quantitative gains in gratitude were not statistically significant. These effects remained consistent across different grades and genders. Qualitative analysis further revealed that students developed greater happiness and cultivated more grateful attitudes through the program.
