| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 音樂研究所 === 88 === The purposes of this study are to understand the situation and problems of inservice education of junior high school music teachers, to investigate these teachers'' motives and wills, to analyze ways of in-service education, curriculum design, class time, education systems and administrations. This study aims to arrange fitful inservice education curriculum for music teachers at junior high school.
In order to fulfill these purposes, this study made use of questionnaires. First, the researcher did related literature review. Then, the researcher applied the self-edited questionnaire as the tool to investigate the related problems of inservice education. The samples were music teachers at public junior high schools on Taiwan. The results showed significance in the meaning, the insight, and the inservice education curriculum design, the system of inservice education received by music teachers at junior high school, and the differences and similarities among the inservice systems of Taiwan, the U.S. and Japan.
(1) All of the music teachers are positive that inservice education is important, and they are willing to receive inservice education.
(2) As to the curriculum, teachers believe the inservice education benefits their teaching, and expect to take part in the programs which increase their professional proficiency. They also intend to take courses in other fields. Besides, most of the teachers believe the effect of the program should be evaluated in order to improve the future programs.
(3) Bad timing and lack of information on inservice education are the reasons why teachers do not take the inservice courses. Some other reasons are that the opportunities aren''t abundant, that the distribution of the inservice education chance is not equal among all areas, and that the school authority does not support the program.
(4) Both the teacher certification of the U.S. and the grade division of Japan promote their inservice education programs, and both systems can be used as a basis for improving the system in Taiwan.
According to the results, the researcher made suggestions on inservice education system and future research. The authority concerned can improve the system based on the results.
