摘要

「不創新，就落後」(Leonard & Straus, 1997)。創造力是推動科技、文化進步、提昇個人智慧的原動力。本研究的目的在藉由訪談、問卷歸納出影響科學競賽績優教師創意發展的個人特質、家庭、學校（組織）因素。本研究以1994-1998年參加中小學科學競賽獲獎三次以上之36名績優教師爲訪談對象，並比較224名一般教師和績優教師在研究者自編之「創造力發展量表」上的反應之差異。結果發現：科學績優教師擁有許多共同的個人特質、成長背景以及工作環境，然而卻也各自擁有一些獨特性。一般教師和科學競賽績優教師對影響創造力發展與精進之51項因素重要性的評估一致性高、評價也高；另外，科學競賽績優教師在擁有影響創造力之人格特質、能力和學校（組織）因素則明顯多於一般教師。研究最後除針對結果做深入討論，並對未來研究方向提出若干建議。

”Innovate or fall behind” (Leonard & Straus, 1997). The purpose of this study is to explore personal, family, and school factors that influence creativity development. Thirty-six primary and secondary school teachers who guided students to win scientific competitions more than three times in five years were interviewed. These award-winning teachers as along with other 224 non-award-winning teachers were administered with an inventory of 51 items pertaining to factors deemed helpful to creativity development. Results show that there were some commonalities as well as uniqueness in terms of personal, family, and school backgrounds among these award-winning teachers. Both groups of teachers regarded the 51 items very helpful to creativity development. In addition, the award-winning teachers possessed more personal, family, and school (organization) characteristics that were deemed helpful to creativity development than the non-award-winning teachers.
