摘要 本研究旨在探討大台北地區國中英語教師對國中英語教科書的意見和使用現況。本研究的對象為台北市、台北縣及基隆市的300位國中英語教師。研究者以問卷為資料蒐集工具，共回收問卷264份，其中262份為有效問卷，主要採用描述性統計分析。
      主要研究發現摘要如下：
     1.翰林及康軒出版社所出版的英語教科書為目前大台北地區最廣為採用的兩套教材。大致而言，各校英語教學研究會有權決定使用那一套教科書。教師選擇教科書時的主要三項考量依序為內容優劣，程度適中，及教師手冊與習作的設計能達到輔助教學之目的。除了主要使用的教科書外，大多數教師採用補充教材。最主要的兩種補充教材依序為自編教材及英語教學雜誌。
     2.大多數教師對英語教科書的出版特性、學習內容、學生習作、教師手冊及補充教材感到滿意。大多數教師指出學生程度差異過大是教學時最常遇到的困難。
     3.大多數教師認為使用現行教科書的學生較使用國編本的學生對教材內容更感興趣。教師對現行教科書較滿意；而學生也更喜愛現行教科書。許多教師認為使用現行教科書的學生在聽說方面較使用國編本的學生表現更佳；許多教師認為使用現行教科書的學生在文法及書寫方面較使用國編本的學生表現退步。
     4.許多教師認為最好由國立編譯館編寫國編本教科書，但也有近乎相等數量的教師認為國編本及民編本並行最佳。多數教師認為全國使用同一版本教科書是最佳的教科書選用方式；因此多數教師對大台北地區於九十七學年度起使用單一版本教科書持正面態度。
      本研究有助於了解國中英語教科書的使用現況和意見。最後依據研究結論，對教育行政機關、出版社、教師、未來研究提出建議。
The purpose of the study is to explore junior high school teachers’ opinions of current English textbooks and their usage in greater Taipei area. The participants of the study were 300 junior English teachers from greater Taipei area. The instrument used in this study was a questionnaire. The data was analyzed by means of descriptive statistics.
      The findings of this study are summarized as follows:
     1.Han-lin and Kang-xüan are the two top widely- used English textbook. On the whole, the English Teaching Committee of each individual school has the power to decide which set of textbooks to be adopted. The top three considerations in textbooks selection are the overall content, suitable level of difficulty, and whether the design of teachers’ manuals and students’ workbooks facilitating instruction. Most of the teachers utilize supplementary materials in addition to their existing textbooks. The top two resources they use to enhance students’ learning are self-produced supplementary materials, and English teaching magazines.
     2.Most of the teachers are satisfied with the layout, contents, students’ workbooks, teachers’ manuals and supplementary materials. Lots of the teachers point out teaching students with highly diverse competence is the main problem in their teaching.
     3.Most of the teachers observe that students who use current textbooks are more interested in the contents than students who used centralized textbooks. In general, current textbooks are satisfactory to most of the teachers and more appropriate to students compared to centralized ones. Many of the teachers sense that students who use current textbooks are better in listening and speaking than students who used centralized textbooks, while a certain number of the teachers feel that students who used centralized textbooks outperform those who use current textbooks in grammar and writing.
     4.For most of the teachers, it is best for National Institute for Compilation and Translation to develop and generate centralized textbooks. However, an equal number of the teachers consider it is best for the commercial produced textbooks to be used in conjunction with the centralized textbooks. The most ideal way of adopting junior high school English textbooks is to use the same set of textbooks. Hence, the majority of the teachers support the local governments’ (including Taipei City, Taipei County and Keelung City governments) policy to use the same English textbooks.
      The study provides an understanding of teachers’ opinions on the usage of junior high school English textbooks. Some pedagogical implications are offered for the educational authorities, the textbook publishers, and English teachers.
