運用Blog於師資培育之探討

Abstract

本研究應用Blog平臺架構出一個實習教師網路反思學習社群，讓實習老師透過Blog的RSSC（友站聯播與訂閱）、Comment（文章迴響）等功能進行教學實習、導師實習、行政實習及研習活動的反思，並藉由同儕的相互迴響，教授的評析和推薦，與他人對話互動，期望能提升其教師專業知能。參與研究的對象共有65位實習教師，經過近一年的實施，結果發現：(1)實習教師在Blog發表和迴響的篇數有兩極化現象，(2)多數實習教師表示在Blog上反思、迴響及閱讀同儕的文章對其教師專業成長有幫助，(3)實習教師願意使用Blog的原因在於可以增進專業成長及獲得成就感;而實習工作忙碌沒有多餘的時間則是其沒有在Blog上反思或迴響的主要因素。
