摘要

隨著資訊科技發展迅速，大數據、物聯網、人工智慧等技術開發逐漸落實於生活。為因應資訊時代中大量且複雜的程式控制及運算需求，許多國家將運算思維及程式設計納入資訊教育政策發展重點，而教育部亦在十二年國民基本教育課程綱要規劃，將程式設計編列為資訊科技領域學習主要面向，以有效推動。然而，對教學現場而言，除課程與教材之研發外，驗證學習成效同樣相當關鍵。大學程式設計先修檢測（APCS）係為評測高中階段程式設計能力之測驗。為探索國中階段程式設計教學評量可行之策略，本研究應用內容分析法，先以十二年國教科技領域／資訊科技課綱為基礎，依據電腦科學相關理論及課綱之學習內容，研擬「程式設計」及「演算法」之分類類目表，而後針對APCS題庫內容，分析其觀念題組與十二年國教資訊科技學習內容之對應，進而探討當中是否具有適用於國中階段施測之試題，並深入分析其試題結構。從本文分析結果顯示，經適當篩選後，APCS部分試題應可作為國中生在程式設計學習成果之評估，亦可作為教師在課程規劃之參考。然而，由課綱角度來看，部分試題雖可作為國中階段程式設計與演算法評量之參考，但國中生實際運算思維發展是否足以確實完成所選試題，仍有待後續教學實驗加以驗證。

The information technology such as Big Data, the Internet of Things, and Artificial Intelligence are being used in daily life. Computational thinking (CT) concept and skill become more and more important. In Taiwan, the Ministry of Education has planned the national curriculum guidelines of 12-year basic education in the information technology area. The programming is one of the major aspects of the curriculum guideline. However, in addition to the development of curricula and teaching materials, how to assess learning abilities is also an issue. The Advanced Placement Computer Science (APCS) is designed to evaluate the programming skills of senior high school students. This paper employed content analysis method and introduced APCS as a research object that relative to the 12-year basic education curriculum. Based on the computer science theories and 12-year basic education curriculum, this paper classified the learning items within ＂programming＂ and ＂algorithm＂. Therefore, according to the analysis result in the curricula of ＂programming＂ and ＂algorithm＂ in high school, there are some questions of APCS fundamental examination are suitable for junior school students. This paper shows that APCS can be applied as a tool for the evaluation of programming learning achievement. Therefore, some further researches are required to transform the APCS as assessment strategies in classroom implementation.
