摘要

在績效責任的時代，教師與學校行政人員視績效管理為一種良方。教師透過讚賞與績效獎金策略的運用，來提升教育專業尊嚴與教學效能。學校行政人員則利用它來做為評鑑過程的一部分，以引導改進教師的低效能。本研究的目的旨在探究國民小學校長對績效管理的覺知。為此，研究者以訪談法來蒐集資料，並設計半結構的題目來探討績效管理的不同層面。研究對象共抽樣四位彰化縣國民小學校長。研究結果顯示績效管理能扮演診斷問題與改進學校效能的功能，並引導學校進步與發展。研究發現績效管理的層面涵括，1.覺知的力量：績效的圖像與溝通的氣氛、2.行動的脈絡：績效的執行與教育的脈絡、3.轉型的反思：管理的風格與嵌入現場的覺知等。最後，研究者依據結論提出建議，以供教育實務工作者、教育行政當局與未來研究者改進學校效能與提昇績效管理效果的參考。
