Description
Summary:碩士 === 大葉大學 === 環境工程學系碩士在職專班 === 96 === After experiencing the process of sending, consolidating and revising Delphi questionnaires four times, the weight of each indicator in the “Environmental Performance Evaluation Indicator System for Elementary School” was confirmed, and Important-Performance Analysis (IPA) was proceeded on the basis of four directions and 65 indicators to get the priority for the improvement of each indicator. Later, questionnaire surveys were conducted in all elementary schools of Taiwan. A sampling survey was conducted in 2596 public and private elementary schools in Taiwan (without including off-shore islands). There were 460 pieces of questionnaires issued, recovering 223 pieces, effective 207 pieces, ineffective 16 pieces, effective recovery rate 45%. Afterwards, statistical analysis methods, such as descriptive statistics, One-Sample T Test, proceeded through SPSS statistical package software. Then, the conclusion was made by the discussion of the analysis to offer useful suggestions for the reference of the execution of environmental performance evaluation. After statistical analysis and discussion, important conclusions in the study are as below: (1)According to Delphi Method questionnaires, the distributed ratios for operation performance and management performance, approved by professionals, are 31.25 % in the direction of living operation, 25.42 % in the direction of teaching permeation, 24.17% in the direction of campus management, 19.17% in the direction of administrative management. In which, there are 16 categories, 14 categories, 24 categories and 11 categories in the indicators of four directions. (2) After the One-Sample T Test, the result showed a fair performance on the environmental performance evaluation in all elementary schools of Taiwan. The average score of all elementary schools in Taiwan was 69.60, and it has an apparent difference between different elementary school in Taiwan. (3) The elementary schools in different districts and the those which attended the plan about “Taiwan Sustainable Campus Project” or not have an apparent difference in the score distribution of the questionnaire of environmental evaluation. (4) By the method of Pearson Product-Moment Correlation, it showed that there was a remarkable relationship between the directions of living operation, teaching permeation, campus management and administrative management. (5) Different options for “Environmental Performance Evaluation Indicator System” was proposed to suit to schools with different backgrounds and can be as references to government and following researchers.
