本研究旨在瞭解兒童參與校外課後安親班之現況,並探討學童對課後托育服務的看法。本研究採問卷調查方法進行資料蒐集,採分層隨機方式進行抽樣,以屏東地區10所已立案校外課後安親班學童為研究對象,實際有效樣本為437位。根據資料分析結果,整體而言,學童對課後托育服務的認知現況,介於「同意」與「非常同意」之間,顯示兒童對課後服務中心的看法傾向正面,學童課後安親班所提供的服務能滿足孩子的需求。其次,就不同年級的學童對課後托育服務認知的差異,發現低年級學童的「老師支持」面向,顯著高於中、高年級的學童;就托於不同安親班地點的學童對課後托育服務認知的差異,發現就托於市區學童的「競爭氣氛」面向,顯著高於就托於鄉鎮的學童。
The purposes of this study were to investigate the situations of elementary students' participation in after-school program service outside the elementary school, and to understand children's perspectives toward after-school programs. Participants were randomly selected from elementary students of ten legally registered after-school programs in Pingtung areas. The valid questionnaires answered by students were 437 copies. The results of this study are generally shown that the status of participation in after-school programs outside the elementary school on 'Level of Cognition of After-School Program' lies between 'agree' and 'very agree' which indicated that students’ viewpoint on the level of cognition of afterschool program tended to be positive and also showed that students expressed a higher level of program satisfaction towards after-school programs. Moreover, differences of children with different grader on the survey shows those children with middle and higher level of grader highly agree on 'teacher supports' than lower graders. And differences of locations on the survey shows that children attended after-school program located in city areas highly agree on 'competition climate' than children of country areas.
