Full textAbstract:
Reading has always received a great deal of
attention at both junior and senior high schools in
Taiwan. However, reading ability of English after six
years' learning is not satisfactory. The main problem is
that students do not read for the main idea nor for the
relationships between sentences. In addition, English
reading skills, even at the college level, are limited to
referring to the dictionary and analyzing sentence
structures. The purpose of the present study is to
explore this area; in particular, to determine the causes
of and to provide solutions to the problem of reading
difficulty by conducting a content analysis.
This study focuses on a content analysis in four
areas:(1) Analysis of reading comprehension questions,
(2) analysis of gradation of readability, (3) analysis of
gradation of structures, and (4) comparison of cohesive
ties between Chinese and English written texts using
similar topics.
The text samples to be examined included two areas:
(1) Book Six of The Standard English Textbook. This is
the final volume of the series currently prescribed for
senior high schools in Taiwan, and (2) three texts
written in Chinese and English, with similar topics. It
is hoped that some implications will be drawn from this
study for improving the effectiveness of teaching reading
in English at the secondary level in Taiwan.

The Botswana basic education program is intended to provide for equity and equality of opportunity and access to education. Every Motswana child is expected to attend school continuously up to the national mandatory tenth grade (Revised National Policy on Education, (RNPE) 1994.). Since not all children can be absorbed into senior secondary schools, examinations are used to select those who will proceed to higher education. However, some children selected to senior secondary education drop out before they complete their education cycle. Children who drop out forfeit their chances of going through a senior secondary education program, and thereby lose the opportunity to better themselves, obtain better paying jobs, or make informed contributions to the national development process. This study sought to discover reasons why some children do not complete their intended cycle of schooling. The research adopted a qualitative design in which in-depth interviews of focus groups were conducted. The main population groups interviewed were teachers, parents, senior secondary students, and school dropouts. The views obtained from the interviews were checked against documents and records of the Botswana Ministry of Education. The findings indicate that the reasons given by research subjects as causes for school dropout are consistent with those appearing on official records: pregnancy, desertion, illness, and death. However, the respondents also added four major themes of self-withdrawal or withdrawal for personal reasons, parental withdrawal, lack of transportation fees to and from classes, and lack of accommodation. The sub-themes for students who withdraw from school for personal reasons include their not seeing any value in education, thinking that the subject matter is too difficult, or being misguided by peer influence. The conclusions drawn are that the research subjects believe school dropout is an important issue that should be addressed. The suggested solution strategies include the call for effective teachers, community parenting, community-school partnership, sex education and contraception, and formulating and enforcing laws where parents and guardians will ensure that students stay in school for up to a certain age or else be liable for prosecution (enforced school age).

Full textAbstract:
The operation and development of Western Australian senior secondary schools is based upon traditional theories of organisational management and school administration. The study sought to explore alternative conceptions of the nature of schools and the processes by which they can be improved.Examination of research on school effectiveness revealed that student learning outcomes were consequential on the values and norms of the staff of schools. These values and norms constitute the culture of a school and govern the professional activity of teachers. School culture can be contrasted with the formal school organisation in which the work of teachers is prescribed by explicit rules and regulations. Viewing schools from a cultural rather than organisational perspective requires conceptualising the school as a learning community. A learning community is bonded together by common expectations about the roles of teachers and the learning of students. The predominant consideration is the educative mission of the school and not the requirements of the formal organisation. Organisational development is viewed as cultural transformation. The improvement of the school is facilitated by the growth of a school culture which is supportive of the professional needs of teachers and the educative needs of students.The study utilised a developmental mixed-method research approach to investigate the nature, temporal stability and improvement of the culture of local senior secondary schools.A quantitative instrument was developed to measure aspects of school culture identified in the school effectiveness literature. The School Cultural Elements Questionnaire (SCEQ) provided a measure of the level of teacher efficacy, emphasis on learning, collegiality, collaboration, shared planning and transformational leadership in local schools. The SCEQ data were supplemented by data from a ++stratified sample interview programme in two schools. Empirical findings indicated school culture was internally dynamic, in interaction with its external environment and capable of changing. Interview data provided examples of internal and external influences on the maintenance, growth and decline of school culture.The results of the empirical phases of the study were applied in the development of a model of school culture, the School Improvement Model of School Culture. The model contained six cultural constructs which are characteristic of school culture and the processes by which it can be transformed. The model was then applied in a detailed examination of practical and theoretical aspects of Western Australian systemic school improvement initiatives. The effectiveness of these initiatives was explained as a consequence of implementation strategies and their interaction with the prevailing school culture.The study is important for school level personnel, school improvement programme designers and educational researchers. In particular, the School Improvement Model of School Culture provides a significant alternative conception of the nature of schools and the processes by which they improve.

Full textAbstract:
This investigation focused on censorship by librarians in senior high schools in Virginia during the 1985-86 school year. Emphasis was placed on determining the subject matter that the librarians censored, the means by which censorship was exercised, and the factors that were influential in causing these individuals to engage in such activity.;The primary method of securing data for the study was a questionnaire developed by the researcher and mailed to the head librarian in every senior high school in the state of Virginia. Responses were received from 68 percent of those surveyed.;Based on an analysis of the data generated by the survey the following conclusions were reached: (1) the librarians in the study placed restrictions on the acquisition and use of a wide variety of subject matter, with every subject category listed on the questionnaire being restricted in some manner by at least 8.7 percent and as many as 86 percent of the respondents, (2) the librarians were significantly more restrictive with fictional materials than with nonfictional materials; (3) the tactic most commonly employed to control the acquisition and use of controversial materials was to purposely avoid purchasing those materials; (4) there was no relationship between characteristics associated with the librarians or the communities or schools in which they worked and the extent to which these individuals were restrictive; and (5) the librarians' own personal convictions about what should or should not be made available to the users of their libraries were more influential in causing them to censor than were pressures to censor, either real or imagined, that were generated by persons or groups in the school or community.;Based on these findings, a number of recommendations were offered aimed at accomplishing two major tasks: first, insuring that professional preparation programs for school librarians include a strong emphasis upon the importance to American education of the principles of intellectual freedom and the proper procedures for selecting and defending library materials, and, second, establishing within the schools a network of support to insure that in the event of a controversy over library materials, the librarian will not be asked to stand as the lone defender of students' rights to read and to know.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this research was to explore how examiners achieve and maintain high quality assessment during marking and moderation of the BGCSE (Botswana General Certificate of Secondary Education) Home Economics coursework in Botswana. In 2000, localization of the Cambridge Overseas School Certificate (COSC) to the Botswana General Certificate of Secondary Education (BGCSE) took place as per the recommendations of the Revised National Policy on Education (RNPE) document. This new certificate system, marked locally, allows for varied modes of assessment, with more emphasis being placed on continuous assessment. This also means that the assessment is school-based, with teachers centrally involved. As is procedure with this kind of assessment, it is subjected to moderation. However, implementation of this new assessment approach exposed, among other challenges, challenges in establishing dependability of teachers’ assessment, possible increase in teacher workload, teachers’ lack of expertise and confidence in undertaking the assessment scheme. This study, among other things, considers the forms of moderation used by the BGCSE to establish consistency in school-based assessment (SBA) and in so doing, it identifies that a dual form of moderation is used. The main research questions guiding this investigation were: - How are teachers and moderators trained so that they may be competent examiners?
- How is quality assured during marking of coursework?
- How does the examining body (BEC) Botswana Examination Council ensure that the examiners adhere to the quality control mechanisms?

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of the research reported in this thesis is to investigate the occurrence and recognition of limit experience among some Catholic High School students in their final year at selected secondary colleges in Brisbane. Limit experience was defined as an experience that reveals a reality of life beyond the self, beyond the here and now. It may be recognition of our own fragility and vulnerability as much as a joyous awareness of a reality beyond our normal encounter with life. The research work of the Alistair Hardy Research Centre and of Hay (1987) in particular has centred on the question, asked in various ways: Have you ever been aware of, or influenced by, a presence or power, whether you call it God or not, which is different from your everyday life? The survey instrument for this research was designed to divorce questions on such experiences from the direct reference to the term religious, although individuals might indeed interpret them as religious. To approach the issue, an extensive open-ended survey was administered to senior high school students. It was designed first to determine the extent of recognition of such experiences among the students and second to examine whether factors such as home background, regular religious practice, type of school, subject choice or co-curricula activities may make a difference in enhancing the awareness of such experience. This research has also been designed to enable comparison with similar studies. Major research in Australia by Flynn (1975, 1985, 1993) highlighted the factors above as influencing student achievement. Flynn also made connections to religious practice and attitudes to church but not to religious experience as such. Robinson and Jackson (1987) had undertaken extensive research on religious experience in Great Britain that also has important parallels to this research. Some of the techniques of both studies and in some cases actual questions have formed part of this research instrument. This research has gone further than both studies by incorporating the Hay (1987) categorisation of types of religious experience to form the basis for direct questions on student experience. The data gathering, treatment and analysis focused on four catholic secondary schools in the Brisbane Archdiocese. While the research focus was by definition limited, and while the results have of necessity to be treated with some caution before wider generalisation, the outcomes of the research do illuminate some of the important issues identified in the literature. The results of the survey showed that over 90% of the respondents could affirm some association with a limit experience along the lines of the Hay (1987) framework. With significant strengthening of criteria to allow for meaningful statistical analysis, this reduced to 76% of respondents. Results for this smaller group were shown to be essentially independent of home background, type of school attended, co-curricula programs and level of religious practice. With the significant exception of religious education, their recognition of limit experience was also independent of subject choice. This last is in contrast to the earlier work of Robinson and Jackson (1987). Exploratory analyses of the data enabled comparisons to be made with a suggested framework for spiritual sensitivity and the context of relational consciousness, both of which were first proposed by Hay and Nye (1998). This suggests some possible directions for further research into adolescent spirituality. The exploratory analyses also highlight some of the conflict between the reality of these experiences for students and their experience of dissonance with institutional religion.

Full textAbstract:
This study focuses on the writing of senior students in the subject
English at an ACT secondary college. Several features of the ACT
education system are relevant. There is a high retention rate, so the
sample is a broad one. The curriculum is school based, as is assessment.
There are separate courses for those seeking tertiary entrance (TE) and
those seeking to complete their education at Year 12 (Accredited).
The theoretical basis of the study is provided by the work of a number
of linguists with an interest in school language, in particular Graham
Little. 255 samples of writing have been analysed, taking account of the
function and forms of language. The function, or meaning, has been
analysed in terms of content, abstraction, purpose and audience.
The writing in the Accredited course is evenly distributed between the
human and material worlds, three quarters is informational and one
quarter Imaginative. The level of abstraction shows a predominance of
reporting and generalising. Writing in the TE course is 60% concerned
with the human world and reaches higher levels of abstraction such as
speculation and hypothesising. The audience is academic. Compared with
earlier findings, this study shows more human content and higher levels
of abstraction.
Language functions through selective use of forms. The aspects of form
analysed are vocabulary, abstraction of noun phrase, sentence length and
sentence sequencing. Figures produced were largely consistent with
earlier studies; however the TE group shows higher syllable counts,
greater abstraction of noun phrase and longer sentences than the
Accredited group. Creative writing brings the groups closest together.
Handwriting, spelling and punctuation are examined. Handwriting is
always legible, spelling close to 98% correct and 84% of full stops are
correctly used. A small number of scripts produce most of the errors in
both spelling and punctuation.
The achievement of students as revealed by this study of writing is
consistent with earlier studies although the students represented here
demonstrate higher levels of abstraction. The curriculum contains more
human content and is commendably comprehensive, although there is
less poetic and expressive writing than might be expected.
This form of language analysis is recommended for its concentration on
the language actually produced in class, the insights it provides for
teachers and the information it provides for meaningful public
discussion of education.

Glover, Dorothy Abra. "Student participation in decision-making in senior high schools in Ghana." Thesis, University of Sussex, 2015. http://sro.sussex.ac.uk/id/eprint/58659/.
Full textAbstract:
This case study was conducted in Ghana to explore the arenas available for student participation in decision making in public senior high schools. In Ghana, students are considered stakeholders and collaborators in decision-making alongside parents, teachers, and community members. This role is of particular importance since their participation equips them with the attributes and skills needed for active citizenship. Student Representative Councils (SRCs) are established in all public senior high schools in Ghana and their representatives serve on committees and present students‟ views to school authorities. Their role as representatives is therefore very significant in promoting the student voice. The objective of this study was therefore to explore the key arenas available for student participation in decision making in four senior high schools in Ghana and the levels of their participation within them. In Ghana, no specific policy is provided for student participation in decision making even though the SRC is mandatorily established in each public senior high school. Literature on student participation in decision making in senior high schools is also scarce when compared to other African countries such as South Africa. The international literature on student participation in decision making stresses that participation is a right and that it must be given serious consideration. However, the perception some people have about students‟ participation in decision making is that students in senior high schools are not mature enough to participate fully in decision-making forums in schools. Consequently, opportunities provided for student participation tend to be limited to roles of supervision over student peers and fundraising activities. Arnstein‟s (1969) theory of citizen‟s participation which portrays a striking representation of power structures in society forms the theoretical basis of the study. Relating the theory to the school context, the study is conceptualized on Hart‟s (1992) ladder of student‟s participation and Backman and Trafford‟s (2006) Democratic Schools concept. Backman and Trafford (2006) assert that a school can be democratic in spite of its bureaucratic structures. Given that senior high schools in Ghana are hierarchically structured, with students at the bottom of the structure, these two theories provide an appropriate conceptual framework for exploring students‟ participation in democratic decision making. The study was conducted in four senior high schools in Ghana. The research participants included Student Representative Council (SRC) executives, non-SRC executives, staff members and heads of schools, purposively selected according to their roles in relation to decision making arenas in schools. The study was conducted in the interpretivist paradigm, adopting a qualitative approach, using interviews and focus group discussions. These methods were employed in order to gain in-depth insights into the interactions and perspectives of key stakeholders on students‟ participation in decision making in the case study schools. The findings of the study suggested that the forums provided for student participation were similar in the four selected schools. These decision-making forums included feeding, discipline, students‟ accessibility to school heads, school durbars and SRC general forums. The study however focused on decision-making forums of feeding and discipline as these were the areas participants mostly stressed on in their feedback. The study found that participation in the forums studied varied across the schools, with some schools providing more opportunities for students‟ participation than others did. In all but one school, students‟ participation in decision making appeared to be episodic, restricted and largely initiated by the school authorities. Furthermore, interactions between school leadership and staff were affected by power relations which also affected the level of students‟ participation in decision making. As contribution to knowledge the study notes among others that the interpretation and application of children‟s democratic rights is culturally determined and therefore vary across culture.

Abstract The Education in the Senior High School is in between the Elementary School and College. It is an important stage for a Nation. However, the existing education in senior higher school has some defects to be resolved. For example, the plan and program of the course that is not appropriate designed base on students’ nature. The pressure and stress for students to pursue the star schools. The resource and opportunity of the schools between the city and country, the public and private schools are unequal. The gap between the school and communality is there. In order to meet the requirement of the 12-year fundamental education plan, the Depart of Education proposed the reform plan, which is the school community policy in senior high schools and senior vocational schools. The school community policy in senior high schools and senior vocational schools has two phases. The first one is the experimental phase for preparation. The second one is the formal phase for mid-term plan. The research here is to analysis the legal issues related to realization of this plan to fulfill the educational right of senior high schools. And we expect the research can be the reference for the next reform plan. Chapter 1,The explanations and descriptions of the motivation, purpose, scope of works, and the methodologies.

The main purpose of the study is to investigate how marketing strategies operate in senior high schools and vocational high schools currently. The research method this study adopted is survey research. Data were collected from 630 teachers of senior high schools and vocational high schools in north Taiwan. There are 561 valid samples used in this study, and the usable rates were 89.04％. The collected data were analyzed by the statistical methods of descriptive statistics, t-tset, one-way ANOVA, Pearson product-moment correlation, and structural equation modeling. The conclusions of this study were as follows: 1. The degree of using school marketing was intermediate to higher-intermediate. 2. There was a significant difference in teachers’ perceptions of school marketing due to the differences in the participants’ sex, years of service, and position of service. 3. There was a significant difference in schools’ use of school marketing due to the difference in the participants’ school category. 4. There was a significant difference in schools’ use of school marketing due to the differences of public schools and private schools. 5. The degree of vocational high schools using product strategy was significant higher than that of senior high schools. 6. There was a significant difference in schools’ use of school marketing due to the differences in the participants’ school size. 7. There were positively correlations existed among external marketing, internal marketing, and interactive marketing. 8. The model of school marketing is proper. According to the research results, this study provides recommendations for education authorities, administrative personnel of senior high schools and vocational high schools, and future study.

An Analysis of Senior High Schools and Senior Vocational Schools Teenagers’ Demands and Relevant Cultural towards Mobile Phones Abstract After AT&T Bell Lab originally developed the advanced mobile phone system in 1979, the era of wireless connection was consequently arrived. It not only greatly stroke typical communication method, but also severely altered model of conduct and value of telecommunication users. For example, in Taiwan, the usage of mobile phones was simply playing the role of keeping track of public affairs, while it has presently been symbolizing one’s social status. The transformation of ideology towards mobile phone usage deserves to be probed into. The more handy mobile phones and service become, the more teenagers started to use them. There days, using mobile phones becomes a fashion among teenagers. According to the survey hold by King Car Education Foundation in February 2005, it found that in senior high schools and senior vocational schools in Taiwan, 70.72% of students have mobile phones, and the percentage has been increasing. This study therefore the damand and relevant cultural factor of mobile phones through literature review; a questionnaire was consequently developed. After pretest, item analysis, factor analysis, the test of reliability and validity, a survey was conducted throughout the senior high schools and senior vocational schools in Taiwan. Stratified sampling was applied. It divided Taiwan into four areas as North, Center, South and East. According to the ratio of total numbers of students in each area to senior high school students of population, 60 schools and 2400 students were randomly sampled. There were 1406 valid questionnaires retrieved, with 58.6% response rate. Statistics software of SPSS 10.0 was applied to test frequency, t-test, one-way ANOVA, two-way ANOVA, Scheffe and LSD. The conclusion of the study was: 1.Senior high schools and senior vocational schools in Taiwan have higher demands in sociability, instrumental and entertainment functions that mobile phones possess, while they have lower demands in fashion function. 2.Mobile phone influenced teenagers deeply the sence of community approval.And it’s lower for values and consumption behavior. 3.Male students in senior high schools and senior vocational schools have significantly higher demands in mobile phones’ sociability, instrumental and fashion functions than female students do.Male have significantly influence on values and female were influenced deeply by community approval. 4.Senior vocational school students have significantly higher demands and influenced relevant cultural factor deeply in mobile phones. than senior high school students do. 5.Senior high schools and senior vocational schools from different locations have no significant differences among properties of mobile phones.But teenagers from east district had significant differences among consumption behavior. 6.Students whose monthly budget are more have significant higher demand towards sociability, instrumental, fashion functions and relevant cultural factor of mobile phones than whose budget are less. There is no significant difference towards entertainment function. 7.People who less frequently make replacement for mobile phones have fewer demands in sociability, instrumental, entertainment ,fashion functions and relevant cultural factor of mobile phones. 8.People who have more mobile phone numbers have more demands in sociability, instrumental, entertainment, fashion functions and relevant cultural factor of mobile phones. 9.Male from south district and female from east district have significant differences among values of mobile phones than other people do. 10.Students of senior vocational schools from east and south district have higher demands in sociability, entertainment and functions that mobile phones possess.And they were influenced deeply among values and consumption behavior.

In recent years, students are beginning to study foreign languages at a younger and younger age. In 1996, the Ministry of Education implemented the “Promoting Second Foreign Language Curriculum Experimental Plan” in institutions providing secondary education. In addition, in Taiwan there is a boom in studying Japanese among the general population. Today Japanese has become the most popular foreign language in Taiwan after English. As a result, fifteen years after the implementation of the policy, the choices for textbooks, the most important resource for students and the main source of instruction used by teachers, are abundant. However, there are currently no clear guidelines regarding the manner in which Japanese courses beginning at the high school level should progress throughout the university level. In Taiwan, teachers have absolute authority in choosing their own textbooks and as a result the textbooks used at each school may or may not comply with the Ministry of Education’s “Curriculum Guidelines” and may or may not be complete. Also, because regulations are not clear, the educational outcome resulting from teachers’ choices in textbooks also varies depending on teachers’ individual instructional goals and their students’ ability or lack thereof. Therefore, the goal of this research is to investigate the current situation of Japanese education at academic senior high schools in Taiwan in detail. In this study, questionnaires were distributed to student and teacher users of various Japanese textbooks at five academic senior high schools in Kaohsiung city. Opinions were solicited on areas including grammar, vocabulary, Japanese culture and affairs and also regarding the level of acceptance of the text, student needs, conditions of actual usage and related problems. Then, the content from the questionnaires was compiled, analyzed, and the implications and suggestions for textbook selection, compiling, integration, continuation, and reorganization were discussed. It goes without saying that textbook selection is a vital component in education. Textbooks must continuously be revised. This research is based on problems in Japanese language instruction at academic senior high schools in Taiwan, viewing Japanese language textbooks as a critical element for instructional reform. Also, in addition the results and related reflection from the questionnaire can be used for improving the quality of textbooks, student interest, and student results. This is helpful to high school and university level Japanese instructors, textbook compilers, and people involved in textbook evaluation and selection as it serves as an explicit reference on textbook selection, compiling, integration, continuation, and reorganization. It is hoped that the results of this study will contribute to Japanese language instruction at the high school and university levels.

The purpose of this study is to explore the brand management of senior high schools which include the brand position, management methods, brand equity and so on. According to literature review I made a questionnaire to investigate principles, other school staffs, and teachers of senior high school in Taiwan. These conclusions are following: 1. The famous senior high school brands are first choice in sample. 2. Building school brand is related with the factors of student affairs. 3. To conduct brand management in senior high school is high possible and necessary. There are also some different opinions among the different background staffs. 4. The major brand management methods in senior high schools are to improve the quality of teachers, students, and school administration. 5.

In 1995, senior high schools in Taiwan began to offer elective courses in Japanese as the second foreign language. In 1999, the Ministry of Education announced the “Five-Year Program to Promote the Teaching of a Second Foreign Language in Senior High Schools,” and at the same time proposed practical solutions to delivering the second foreign language courses. Again, the Ministry of Education announced the “2nd phase of the Five-Year Program to Promote the Teaching of a Second Foreign Language in Senior High Schools” in 2005, and stipulated the “Guidelines for Subsidies from the Ministry of Education to the Second Foreign Language Education in Senior High Schools” in 2006, in order to encourage senior high schools to provide the second foreign language courses, including subsidies for teachers, teaching software, and facilities, as well as teaching-related activities. On the other hand, due to internationalization worldwide, it is necessary that young language learners acquire foreign languages and broaden their international horizons as early as possible. As a matter of fact, thanks to the information from Japan, the mass media, and the Internet, the younger generation in Taiwan has developed an interest in the Japanese subculture during the past years. Moreover, tourists leaving for Japan were exempted from the tourist visa starting from September 26, 2005. As a result, it was freer and easier to travel in Japan, leading to an increasing number of Taiwanese tourists bound for Japan each year. Also, a wave of learning Japanese sweeps over Taiwan, resulting in a rapid increase in people learning Japanese. At present, regarding a wide diversity of Japanese learners in Taiwan, we have to take into consideration problems related to teaching Japanese as the second foreign language in senior high schools. With the freedom to take the second foreign language courses in senior high schools, this field study aims to investigate the status quo and future development of elective courses in Japanese. The researcher has worked in senior high schools in Kaohsiung City as a part-time teacher teaching elective courses in Japanese for five years. In order to have an in-depth understanding of the status quo of the Japanese education in senior high schools in Kaohsiung City, this study takes four senior high schools in Kaohsiung City as the research subject, and then conducts an on-site investigation from nine aspects: program goal, class organization, curricula setting, classroom activity, teaching material, teacher, facility, student, and evaluation. In addition, the researcher has an interview with the directors of academic affairs, teachers, and students of the four schools, and prepares questionnaires for them to complete. It is earnestly hoped that the findings of this study can be the future reference for those who are concerned about the Japanese education in senior high schools or for future development of the Japanese education in senior high schools.

In 21st century, all-out defense have become a significant part of our national security and defense policy. In the past, while discussing the topic “all-out defense”, we were usually restricted to talk only within safety-related issues or mobilization plan, and never touched such disregarded issues as how to help Taiwan’s people establish the concept and knowledge of all-out defense and encourage them to actively partake in discussing national defense affairs related issues. The thesis focuses on high school students’ opinions on All-Out Defense Education, and takes Keelung Senior High School and Keelung Girl’s Senior High School Students for case study, to figure out how students receive the education and how they feel about the all-out defense education courses, strategies, goals, agencies. In this thesis, research methods include historical literatures analysis and questionnaire survey. The research conclusion will combine the outcome of analyses of historical literatures and questionnaire survey, and try to give advanced advisements for further researches and all-out defense education policy. According to historical literatures, we will find that the past’s discussion on all-out defense always put emphasis on safety-related issues but just disregarded experience research and students’ viewpoint. However, to succeed in carrying out all-out defense education, it requires having comprehensive consideration and more perspectives from educational elements. Carrying out all-out defense education depends on everyone’s understanding and the cooperation of the policy and students concerned will be successfully achieved only by the complete education of all-out defense. In order to strengthen people’s concept of all-out defense, The top and urgent priority of strengthening all-out defense education is to put the concept of “All-out defense” into people’s mind and make it realized in their daily life.

Adolescents are vulnerable to drug use and misuse. Schools, owing to their guaranteed access to adolescents, are most routinely thought of as the ideal platforms for providing drug use prevention education. However, while considerable efforts are exerted in schools to fight against drugs, studies to evaluate such anti-drug campaigns in Taiwan are inadequate. This study aims to assess the contemporary anti-drug programs in senior high schools in Taiwan and to further analyze factors influencing the outcome A stratified random sample of 2880 students and 250 staffs from 6 normal high schools and 6 vocational schools respectively were selected for the study. The assessment data were collected via self-rated questionnaires. The items of questionnaires included an evaluation of the benefits they received from contemporary anti-drug campaigns, such as the knowledge about consequence of drug use, the commitment to deny drug use, and the resistance skills. Chi-square test, independent sample t-test, and Man-Whitney test were used to compare students and staffs among the content, implementation and methods used in anti-drugs campaigns. Finally, multiple regression modals were used to analyze factors influencing their outcome. There are great differences of self-evaluation between students and staffs regarding the anti-drug campaigns. In general, non-drug used students responded that they were benefited most in the knowledge towards drugs, while with no advantage in the skills of drug refusal. In addition, the contents were useful for students to develop commitment to deny drugs, while staffs gained the knowledge of drugs from its contents. Regarding the methods used, ‘activities’ rather than other means were better recognized both in the students and the staffs. Finally, the degree of involvements in school and the frequency of participation in anti-drug activities were the two most important factors influencing students in the effectiveness of anti-drug campaigns in high schools, using multiple regression analyses. The above results suggest that contemporary school-based anti-drug campaigns had no positive influence in students’ drug —use decision, attitude and knowledge of drug use. However, schools are generally regarded as an important vehicle for providing drug use prevention education to adolescents. The content and the methods of presentation in anti-drug campaigns, failing to arouse students’ interest to take part in, are accounted for their differences. It is suggested that a further modification of the contents and conducts of anti-drug campaigns in senior high is needed, based on empirical evidence. Further evaluation and studies are suggested.

ABSTRACT Title：Research on the Faculty Appeal System Pages：159 in Senior Vocational Schools School：National Taipei University of Technology Department：Institute of Technological ＆ Vocational Education Time：June, 2007 Degree：Master Researcher：Chou, Pi-Hsiu Advisor：Dr. Lin, Teng-Chiao Keywords：senior vocational school, faculty appeal system This research aims at understanding the views of senior vocational school teachers toward the faculty appeal system. Literature review and questionnaire survey were adopted as the research method, while stratified random sampling was used to collect data from advanced vocational school teachers throughout the island. Out of 530 distributed questionnaires, 513 were returned valid (valid return rate=96.8%) Data were analyzed through descriptive statistics, independent t-test, pair t-test, one-way ANOVA and one-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. The results of this study are as follows: 1. Regarding the functions of the appeal system, teachers who have attended faculty plea seminars or relevant meetings hold significantly different views from those who have not. None of the other teacher background variables has led to significant differences. 2. Regarding the contents of pleas to propose, four teacher background variables were found to be significant, including the type of school served (public vs. private), teacher’s education level, teacher’s job position, and membership of the school teacher committee. 3. Vocational school teachers highly agree that the faculty appeal system helps to promote internal review and communication inside the organization, hence reducing unnecessary conflicts. 4. Vocational school teachers highly agree that teachers may propose pleas to the Committee when their rights or interests are harmed, such as the temporary termination of teaching contract, dismissal, or the ceasing of further employment. 5. Vocational school teachers highly expect that there should be law scholars or experts in the Faculty Complaint Committee. 6. Vocational school teachers highly expect that any members of the Faculty Complaint Committee should not take part in the arbitration of a faculty plea if they have interests in or relations to the plea case. 7. Vocational school teachers highly expect that the competent authority should urge the realization of the arbitration decisions through administrative supervision when the school concerned is unable to implement them. 8. Regarding the organization of the Faculty Appeal Committee, there are significant differences between teacher perceptions and reality in all of the aspects except for the number of committee members to be selected by the chiefs of the organization. The biggest discrepancy is the inclusion of law scholars or experts in the committee. 9. Regarding the procedures of making appeals, there are significant differences between teacher perceptions and reality in all of the relevant aspects. The biggest discrepancy is whether or not a committee member should avoid cases if he or she has interests in or relations to the plea case. 10. Regarding the arbitration decisions of a plea case, there are significant differences between ideal and reality in all aspects. The biggest discrepancy is whether or not the competent organization should take administrative supervision to implement the arbitration decisions that the school fails to enforce. Finally, the researcher proposes concrete suggestions for the reference of the educational administrative institutes, the schools and future researchers.

According to the results of the research, twelve conclusions were made: 1. Senior High Schools'''''''' Multiple Entrance Initiative has deviated from its original spirit and conception. 2. Junior high school educators have diverse opinions of whether to adopt students'''''''' academic performance, but scholars and professionals agree to adopt it. 3.

In the past decade, both international trends on educational reform and claims for educational multiplicity and opening have influenced the development of Taiwan’s education at all levels. The education of many subjects in high school is undergoing great change, such as the construction of integrated curriculum, publishers’ right to design instructional materials and high school students’ choice of examination subjects. All of these have great impact on the teaching of high school Geography. At the junior high level, Geography will be integrated into the subject of Social Science, whereas at the senior high level, students will not be obligated to study all materials of Geography. Both of these might possibly minimize the role of Geography. Under such circumstance, the academic filed should actively turn this seemingly declining situation into opportunities for reforming Geography education. Since map is an important tool in the modern life and plays an important role in Geography education, it is important to explore the value and potential of map learning and teaching in high school. Since topographic maps contain much quantitative data, such as information about geomorphology, students can learn to understand the charateristics of maps through them. Therefore, the researcher tried exploring how topographic maps are taught and learned in Taiwan’s senior high school. The research questions of this study are as follows: 1. What are the features of instructional materials and testing content of topographic maps in Taiwan and other countries? 2. How do the teachers in Taiwan’s senior high schools teach topographic maps? 3. What are the students’ basic knowledge of learning topographic maps? 4. What are the senior high school teachers’ and students’ opinions of the instruction and evaluation of topographic maps? In order to answer these questions, First the concept of “knowledge field” was adopted to analyze the core knowledge of topographic maps. Following this, a series of experiments were designed to collect students’ test performance, and 3 questionnaires were tested to capture their learning experiences. Several instructional experiments and class observation by the researcher were also conducted to understand the teachers’ instructional strategies and students’ learning behavior. Finally, the research findings were synthesized into a theoretical framework of the instruction and learning of topographic maps. The results of this research can be summarized as below: 1. The instructional strategies of topographic maps include activity design, metaphor & reasoning embedment, test design, and direct explanation through pictures. If the topographic maps are introduced to the students as supplementary instructional materials, the students with better perofrmance have more positive atttitude toward learning. 2. Altitude is the core concept of topographic maps reading. The students need capabilities of calculation, logical thinking and spatial and visual thinking in order to read topographic maps. 3. The fators critical to the students’ reading of topographic maps include the printing colors of the maps, the size of scale, their outdoor activity experiences, their familiarity with the map areas and their academic performance. 4. Most teachers and students have positive attitudes toward the integration of topographic maps into Geographic text books. Because topographic maps could enrich their geographic knowledge, and make their learning more practical.

The aim of this study is to understand the affective feelings of senior high school female uniforms and develop aesthetic model of senior high school female uniforms. To achieve the goal, three experiments were carried out in this study. Experiment I used open questionnaire to collect affective feelings of senior high school female uniforms. Experiment II used a matrix questionnaire to clarify the relationships between different affective feelings. The results showed that teachers consider the affective feelings at senior high school female uniforms to be lively, elegant, dignified, fresh and new, sexy, and complex, while from students’ perspective, these feelings are fresh and new, elegant, hard-working, and tacky. Experiment III carried out a psychophysics experiment to see different views on the high school summer female uniform. The results indicated that the difference existed on teachers of different gender, teachers teach in different fields, students of different gender, and students from public and private schools. In terms of the uniform aesthetic judgments, the most important feeling to teachers is to feel comfortable; to students, though, it is fresh and new. Likewise, to feel fresh and new is what both male and female teachers concern most. Compared with teachers in the field of science, who think of elegancy as the most important feeling, teachers in the field of social studies consider the feeling of being fresh and new to be the most important. As far as male and female students are concerned, to feel fresh and new and to feel comfortable are regarded as the most important respectively. For students from public and private schools, feeling fresh and new is most important to the former while sexy is to the latter. It was also discovered that the conflict between teachers and students lies in the fact that teachers do not expect school uniforms to be complex while the students feel that school uniforms with complex feeling is beautiful.
