摘要

在地的環境學習能正向增加學習者的地方情感與環境行為，許多研究證實，活動涉入是地方依附的前因，負責任環境行為是地方依附的後果。以前多著重在環境教育與地方感之關聯探究，少有針對環境教育方案實施對兒童地方依附及負責任環境行為的影響研究。此外，不同之環境教育教學方法及方案時間規畫等變數，對整體兒童地方依附與負責任環境行為交互影響探究也付之闕如。有鑑於此，本研究以台灣東部花蓮市某國小中年級兒童100人為研究對象，其中男性受試者48人，占48%。本研究利用準實驗研究，採等組前後測2（時間規劃：間斷／連續)X 2（教學方法：環境體驗教學／傳統課室教學）二因子受試者間實驗設計，並將抽樣的四個班級分派成四組。透過不同教學方法及時間規劃之環境教育方案實施，以問卷量表調查兒童的地方依附與負責任環境行為之變化。結果顯示：（1）環境體驗教學組的地方依附顯著高於傳統課室教學組；（2）不同教學方法對兒童負責任環境行為無顯著差異；（3）不同時間規劃對兒童地方依附與負責任環境行為無顯著差異；（4）兒童地方依附與負責任環境行為在環境教育實施後，顯著高於實施前；（5）不論在時間連續或間斷情境下，環境體驗教學成效優於傳統課室教學；（6）兒童地方依附與負責任環境行為有顯著正相關。研究證實環境教育方案能正向影響兒童地方依附與負責任環境行為。

This study illustrates how Environmental Education Program (EEP) influences Place Attachment (PA) and Environmentally Responsible Behavior (ERB) on children. The past research had shown that place-based education influenced students' sense of place and PA. Empirical studies have demonstrated significant correlations between PA and ERB, and confirmed that activity involvement and resource usage history are the antecedents of PA. ERB is the consequence of PA. The researchers thus infer the hypothesis that the implementation of EEP can increase PA of a child, thereby promoting ERB. Few studies focused on the effect of environmental education on children's PA and ERB. Therefore, this study adopted a 2 X 2 factorial design and a questionnaire to 100 elementary school children who attended an environment-based education program at Meiluen Shan Nature Park, Hualien County in eastern Taiwan. The results showed that (1) PA in experience teaching group is significantly higher than traditional classroom teaching group; (2) There is no significant difference in teaching methods on ERB of children; (3) There is no significant difference in time planning on children's PA and ERB; (4) Experiential teaching method is superior to traditional teaching method; (5) EEP can positively increase children's PA and ERB; (6) PA is significantly related to ERB. The results of this study support the use of EEP for improving PA and ERB and to guide the implementation of future programs. Further implications for environmental educators and formal educators are discussed.
