摘要

弱勢家庭學生外在行為表現正常，不過其學習效率方面較一般學生容易遭遇挫折。過往研究指出弱勢家庭學生閱讀態度與學習積極性不足，在現有的教科書文章編排上不易吸收其內容，導致閱讀學習成效不佳，學者指出透過文章編輯模式的改變不但會影響學習成效，且能提升閱讀效率。本研究探討文章斷詞與改變文字背景色彩組合，對弱勢家庭學生閱讀理解能力之影響。
本研究探討對象以弱勢家庭學生為主，以一般學生為對照組，運用眼球追蹤系統瞭解學生閱讀文章的歷程，搭配閱讀測驗結果以提高研究準確性。透過三篇不同編輯模式（原始文章編排、斷詞變化及文字背景色彩組合）的文章，進行閱讀測驗，並以T檢定分析其測驗結果，配合受測者閱讀軌跡，瞭解學生於三種不同文章的閱讀成效。本研究實驗結果顯示，弱勢家庭學生和一般學生注視時間與注視次數有顯著的差異，而背景文字色彩組合與斷詞變化能吸引弱勢家庭學生閱讀，且提高閱讀文章的完整性，並配合閱讀測驗成績顯示，此兩種教材編輯模式能有效提升弱勢家庭學生之理解能力。

Students with disadvantaged family background act normally as other students, but their learning efficiency declines more easily than the general students. The research shows that students with disadvantaged family background have less positive attitude in reading and less enthusiasm in studies. They cannot acknowledge all contents in the textbooks because of the layout, resulting in reading and learning inefficiency. Changing the article in edit mode affects not only the learning achievement, but also improves reading efficiency. We focus on Chinese word segmentation and the color combination of background and words, to find out how they affect the cognition about reading of students with disadvantaged family background.
The experiment group in this study is students with disadvantaged family background and the control group is normal students. We use eye-tracking system to check the eye movement when students read articles, compatible with reading test results in order to improve research accuracy. Through three different reading materials (original article, Chinese word segmentation, and color combination of background and words) for reading test, using T test to analyze the data, seeing through participants’ reading track, to understand students’ reading efficiency in three different articles. The result indicates that there are significant differences on observation hours and observation times between students with disadvantaged family background and the general students. However, color combination of background and words as well as Chinese word segmentation could attract students with disadvantaged family background to reading. Also they show greater willingness to finish reading the whole article. The test results show that these two materials can improve reading comprehension of students from disadvantaged families.
