TEAL創意互動教學對學生學習普通物理效果的研究
The Impact of Technology-Enabled Active Learning (TEAL) on Student Learning
摘要
創意互動教學（Technology-Enabled Active Learning，TEAL）為美國麻省理工學院（MIT）在教授自然科學及科技相關學門的一項重大教學改革。它的特點在於透過多媒體設備的教學環境，強調主動式、互動式與合作式的敎與學。國立中正大學於2004年和MIT合作，引進此項教學模式，建構一間TEAL教室，並於2005年秋季開始利用TEAL教室授課。本研究以2008年春季七系九班修習普通物理（含電磁學與光學）的大一新生作為研究對象（4班使用TEAL教室的實驗組和5班使用傳統教室的對照組），探討實施TEAL對學生學習普通物理的影響。資料收集計有：前測和後測、焦點訪談、課堂觀察以及期末問卷。初步研究結果指出，實驗組的前後測進步幅度顯著高於控制組（p＜.001）。問卷資料顯示，TEAL學生普遍認為TEAL教學比傳統教室上課較為有趣，雖然他們也認為在TEAL教室上課的壓力頗大。訪談資料發現，TEAL分組式的互動環境是讓多數學生產生正向學習感的主要因素。此結果隱含TEAL課堂上的合作式、互動式教學對改善學生傳統被動式的學習習慣具深遠的影響。如何善用高科技輔助教學來持續吸引學生學習興趣和注意力，提升學生實質的學習成效是未來發展TEAL教學的重要方向。

The Technology Enabled Active Learning (TEAL) project was initially launched at Massachusetts Institute Technology (MIT) in 2001, which involves media-rich facilities to facilitate freshman students to learn physics subject matters in a deliberately designed classroom. The project emphasizes that students learn in an active, interactive and collaborative learning environment. In 2004 National Chung Cheng University established a TEAL studio in campus and in the fall of 2005 the first General Physics course was delivered in the studio. The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of the innovative instructional approach on students' learning. A quasi-experimental research is used to conduct the study. The study involves four classes of students as experimental group (using the TEAL studio) and five other classes of students as control group (using traditional classrooms). Data sources consist of pre-/post tests, focus group interviews, classroom observations and an end-of-semester survey. The preliminary results show that students in the experimental group significantly outperformed those in the control group (P＞.001). The TEAL students in general showed positive attitudes toward the innovative instructional approach. However, how to take full advantage of the high-technology learning environment to more effectively promote student learning yet remains as the most challenging and concerned issue in implementing TEAL in the future.
