運用PhET模擬教學於生活科技領域課程之行動研究-以串並聯為例
An Action Research of Embedding PhET Interactive Simulations into Science and Technology Courses in Junior High School: Teaching Series-Parallel Circuit
摘要
本研究旨在探討PhET學習應用在國中生活科技科串並聯電路實做之課程設計原則、可能遭遇的問題及解決之道，及對學生學習成效之影響。本研究採行動研究方式，教學活動以學生小組進行主題導向學習，探討學生透過PhET模擬軟體互動式學習國中生活科技的歷程、看法及學習成效，做為將來相關研究或實務教師自行設計與教學參考。 一、課程設計原則 PhET模擬教學之課程設計原則可採用三個階段，(1)課程內容說明階段(約5分鐘)：可利用教學影片方式先進行課程主題介紹；(2)實作方法示範(約5~10分鐘)：分段示範PhET模擬操作及實作方法供學生觀摩學習；(3)實作技巧練習(約25分鐘)：示範完畢後讓學生親身進行實作課程與操作PhET互動模擬軟體。 二、遭遇的問題及解決之道 PhET模擬教學之主要困難在於授課教材的設計、電腦硬體的設備及班級秩序的管控。 三、對學生學習成效之影響 研究結果發現運用PhET模擬教學於生活科技領域課程能提升學生實作學習成效、增強學習意願，降低實作電路誤動作次數。

The aim of this action research was to explore the implementation of the PhET interactive simulation into junior high school life technology course teaching series connection and parallel circuit, and to investigate the problems and resolutions of implementation, as well as its effects on students’ learning achievement. The PhET stimulation module was developed and the teaching activities were introduced via by topics while students learn in groups. The findings are as follows: First, in terms of principles of curriculum design, the curriculum may be implemented involving the following steps: 1) provide students with a 3-5 minutes video to download and review assigned topics. 2) Students then observe the teacher’s demonstration of PhET interactive simulation for 10 minutes. 3) Students practice with hands-on activities using PhET interactive simulation software for 25 minutes. Second, concerning problems encountered teaching PhET, the difficulty of implementing PhET was curriculum design, computer hardware, and classroom management issues. Third, in terms of its effects on students’ learning achievements, through this action research, students’ motivation and familiarity with the serial and parallel circuits were enhanced.
