| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立高雄師範大學 === 工業科技教育學系 === 90 === This research aims to explore the correlation between the organization inertia of an elementary school and teachers’ acceptance of the Nine-year Joint Curricula. It focuses on:
1. Investigating the current state of the organization inertia of an elementary school and teachers’ acceptance of the Nine-year Joint Curricula;
2. Studying the connections among teacher background variables, school environment variables, the organization inertia of the elementary schools and teachers’ acceptance of the Nine-year Joint Curricula;
3. An analysis of the interrelation between school organization inertia and acceptance degree of teachers to the Nine-year Joint Curricula;
4. A discussion of influence of the organization inertia affecting elementary teachers’ acceptance of the Nine-year Joint Curricula; and
5. Proposing study results as reference for educational authorities, schools, and teachers to refine the Nine-year Joint Curricula application.
Data collection of this study was based on questionnaire dissemination to a total of 960 teachers of 100 public elementary schools in Kaohsiung County, and 766 valid samples were collected. A brief summary of the data analysis outcome as follows:
1. Current elementary school teachers perceive their school organizations at a degree of below average, and yet whose degree of acceptance of the Nine-year Joint Curricula are above average.
2. The subject teachers display obvious differences in the percepts of year of teaching, educational level, teaching field, age average, school location, school scale, year(s) of school being founded, year(s) of current principal inauguration, except in the gender variable item, which reveals a fact of minor difference.
3. On the degree of the Nine-year Joint Curricula acceptance, notable differences are observed only in the teaching field classification and school location variables, and yet no specific difference in the gender, year of teaching, educational level, age average, school scale, year(s) of school being founded, and year(s) of current principal inauguration items.
4. On the matter of the correlation between individual background factor(s), school environment factor(s) and the organization inertia, the data reveals a positive connection among the teaching field classification, school scale, age average variables and the organization inertia, and a negative correlation in the school location item.
5. On the matter of the correlation between individual background factor(s), school environment factor(s) and degree of the Nine-year Joint Curricula acceptance, the data tells that positive connections only occur among educational level, teaching position and the degree of the acceptance of the Nine-year Joint Curricula, and not on other variables.
6. An obvious negative correlation is observed between the organization inertia of an elementary school and teachers’ acceptance of the Nine-year Joint Curricula.
7. A path analysis displays a fact that “school scale” and “teaching position” variables affect teachers’ acceptance of the Nine-year Joint Curricula via a mediate variable, i.e. organization inertia, in this study.
