契約學習法在「國父思想」教學中的試驗 作者:張秀雄(國立臺灣師範大學公民訓育學系)

摘要：

契約學習法的特色在學生主控整個學習活動，從學習目標的選擇、學習計畫的擬訂，到執行學習活動、評量學習結果等，都由學生擔負大部分的責任。它充分提供學生思考的空間，適應個別學生的學習步調，讓學生依其喜歡的方式從事學習。整個學習活動以學生為中心，學生有自我實現、成就及備尊重的感覺，正合當前我國大學生心理傾向。由於契約學習法能滿足成人學生的學習需求及自尊新，已被廣泛使用於美、加、澳等國的成人教育課程與高等教育學府。他山之石，可以攻錯。
本項試驗之目的在探討契約學習法在「國父思想」教學中的可行性。作者首先討論本項試驗的社會背景及契約學習法的理論假設，其次界訂學習契約的格式和設計學習契約的步驟。同時，作者亦討論契約學習法的優點與限制，以及適合使用學習契約的學習情境。
作者根據Knowles的自導式學習模式設計本項契約學習試驗的過程。三十七位大一學生表示對契約學習有興趣，百分之六十五的學生絕得比傳統的班及教學得較多。從學生之反應觀之，契約學習法在「國父思想」教學中的可行性甚為明確。

An Experimentation of Using Learning Contracts on Teaching the Course Entitled "Sun Yat-Sen's Thoughts" Author: Hsiu-Hsiung Chang(Department of Civic and Moral Education, National Taiwan Normal University)

Abstract：

The purpose of this experimentation is to explore the possibility of using con-tract learning on teaching the course ------- Sun Yat-Sen's Thoghts. At first, the author discussed the social background of this experimentation and theorectic hy-potheses of contract learning, then defined the form and steps of developing a learning contract. Besides, adventages and limitations of contract learning and suit-able sitautions for using a learning contract were also stated.
The author developed a process of contract learning for the experimentation according to Malcom S. Knowles' self-directed learning model. A sixteen week's in-tervention was conducted by this author and thirty-seven freshman students em-ployed learning contracts to conduct then- learning activities. At the end of the in-tervention, 89% students indicated that they were interested in contract learning situation; 65% students felt that they learned more than the traditional classes. From the students' reactions, it will be possible to apply learning contracts to this course.
