Summary: | 碩士 === 國立台北師範學院 === 數理教育研究所 === 88 === The purpose of the currant education is no longer restricted in only knowledge and technology gatherings, but has expanded into ten categories of basic capability to pursue. To put it more briefly, we would like to achieve a goal of making a wholesome, balanced person that is not only well learnt and capable of doing things technical wise, but also sensible and emotional enough to carry out what was learned. To achieve the latter part of the last statement is what we call sensational and emotional teaching concept. We think it is important to incorporate this concept into the science curriculum of our elementary school. The reasons behind it are to strengthen students’ (1) self-recognition, (2) ability to appreciate, express, and create, (3) capability of communicating and sharing, (4) being cooperative, respectful, and enjoying teamwork. Also it will be of great help in the development of a specific main theme of the particular school to create a worthwhile identity of the school as a campus full of righteous sensitivity and emotion which, in particular, will give the impression of appreciation, forgiveness, respectfulness, and lots of care.
The concept can be applied in three different ways:
1.Specially designed main topics to emphasize the concept.
2.Derivative introduction from current curriculum but initiated by the teacher in class.
3.The same introduction through homework.
The result of a comparison survey between two fourth grade classes shows no significant differences as far as their grades of learning are concerned. Therefore, the additional effort to apply the concept has no ill effect to the student’s knowledge learning. However, a specially written up questionnaire gives a much favorable indication that those in the sensational and emotional program scored much higher in their emotional literary.
