Using Visual Methods to Explore How Students in Information-Related Fields Express the Concept of ＂Information＂
以視覺方法探討資訊相關領域學生如何表述「資訊」概念
摘要
This study used a visual method to explore how 219 undergraduate and master's students in library and information science, information management, and computer science perceive the concept of ＂information＂ through drawing and writing. Through content analysis, the researcher examined the elements and meanings appeared in the participant-drawn pictures, namely, the iSquares. The findings showed that while types of iSquares are somewhat similar among students from different fields of study, the elements used to express the concept of information are quite different. The complexity of the compositions and the perspectives are also different. Students in library and information science tend to use more complex compositions, and include the image of people and print materials as elements in their iSquares. They tend to use various metaphors to express the concept of information, and address issues related to uncertainty, information seeking process, or information hierarchy. In contrast, students in information management tend to address issues related to big data, and students in the computer science tend to present the concept of information with a relatively simple composition including tools and equipment. Based on the findings, the current study provides pedagogical and research suggestions.
並列摘要
本研究運用「資訊方塊」（iSquares）之視覺研究方法，以受試者所產製的圖文，探討來自圖書資訊學、資訊管理學及資訊工程學等系所219位大學生及碩士生所感知的資訊概念。透過內容分析法檢視其圖像元素與意涵，研究發現來自不同系所學生所繪製之資訊方塊類型分布情形有些相似，然其用以表述資訊之元素繁簡程度不一，切入點亦有所不同。圖書資訊領域學生傾向以較複雜的構圖，運用人或人的意象、紙本或印刷品、各種比喻來表述資訊概念，並表達不確定性、資訊尋求的過程與資訊階層等內涵。相形之下，資訊管理領域學生則傾向表達資料處理與巨量資料之概念，而資訊工程領域學生傾向以較簡單的構圖或工具與設備來呈現資訊之概念。本研究據此提出教學相關實務建議與未來研究建議。
