摘要

本文探討LiveDVD線上影片學習系統對科大學生英文學習動機之影響。本文主要以Keller（1987）之ARCS學習動機模型為基礎，提出英文能力與四個動機因素關係之結構模型，並利用驗證性因素分析與結構方程統計方法來檢視該模型之配適度。此外，本文也利用多因子變異數分析探討學生之主修與能力分級是否在四個動機因素呈現顯著差異。527位科大學生有效完成填寫一份問卷，結果發現：（一）學生對LiveDVD系統之四個動機因素整體都呈現正向結果；（二）在注意力因素部分，中與低能力組學生顯著大於高能力組；（三）在滿意度因素方面，除了有顯著英文能力等級主要效果外，英文能力等級與主修變數也有顯著交互作用效果；在非工科學生方面，中與低能力等級學生對LiveDVD滿意度大於高能力等級學生；另外，在中能力等級學生而言，非工科學生對LiveDVD滿意度高於工科學生；（四）在所提結構模型配適度驗證方面，只有信心潛在變數對學生英文能力有顯著影響，信心愈高則自評英文能力愈高。

This study investigated the effects of the LiveDVD self-learning system on English learning motivation of students at a Taiwanese technical university. Modeled on the ARCS motivation model of Keller (1987), this study validated the ARCS model, examined the effects of Majors and English Levels on motivation, and tested the proposed structural model involving the effect of the ARCS model on self-assessed English skills. Five hundred and twenty-seven students of three English ability groups completed a survey questionnaire. Statistical procedures including confirmatory factor analysis, factorial ANOVA, and structural equation modeling were performed to address the research questions. The participants were found to have overall positive motivation toward the LiveDVD System in terms of the ARCS model. English Level had significant influence on Attention, with students of Mid and Low-level groups paying more attention to the LiveDVD system than High-level group students. For Satisfaction, aside from the main effect of English Level, the English Level*Major interaction effect was also found to be statistical. For non-engineering majors, students of mid and low English abilities were found to have higher satisfaction with the LiveDVD System than high proficiency students, while for Mid-level groups, non-engineering students had higher satisfaction with the self-learning system than engineering students. Only Confidence of the ARCS in the proposed structural model was found to have significant effect on English Skill, students with stronger confidence tending to have higher English abilities.
