摘要

本研究以五所農業技職學校相關科系之最高年級學生為樣本，進行網路化農業資訊傳播模式之實證研究，希望探討網路化農業資訊傳播的實施對於促進未來農民使用網路獲得農業資訊的影響，具體目的包括瞭解當前農業技職學校學生使用電腦網路本身與使用電腦網路取用農業資訊的情形，以及農業技職學校學生對於網路農業資訊的看法，並進一步比較不同背景農校學生應用網路化農業資訊與未來使用意願等之差異。研究結果發現目前農校學生絕大多數皆有使用電腦網路的經驗，但應用於農業資訊取用方面則尚不普及。而學生使用網路化農業資訊情形，因其就讀科系、網路設備及網路相關課程而有顯著差異，對農業資訊網站的滿意度普遍偏低，使用者並建議相關單位加強網站宣傳與農民網路訓練。另外，選擇留農的學生對於未來應用網路工具在農業實務工作上的意願很高，其留農意願因其入學背景及家長務農的不同而有顯著差異。而曾經使用網路並查詢農業資訊的學生，未來應用網路工具的態度較積極。本研究並提出「農校學生未來應用網路化農業資訊傳播模式」，希望做為未來相關研究基礎與農校資訊教育實施及推廣傳播實務工作之參考。

The purpose of this study was to investigate the extend to which agricultural vocational school students in Taiwan use computer network technology and web-based agricultural information, as well as their attitudes toward agricultural information communication. Results of this study have shown that most agricultural vocational students have experiences using computer networks but only few of them try to access agricultural information via these tools. There are significant differences among students using web-based agricultural information with respect to their different majors, access to the necessary facilities, and completion of appropriate computer courses. On the other hand, those who internet experiences were not satisfied with the current agricultural websites. Students who plan to join the agricultural force as their future careers are more likely to apply web tools to support their farming work and to search for web-based agricultural information than students who are not going to stay in the agricultural business. Finally, based on the findings, this study proposes a model illustrating the factors that affect students' willingness to apply web-based agricultural information communication in the future.
