| Summary: | 碩士 === 臺北市立教育大學 === 課程與教學研究所課程與教學碩士學位班 === 96 === With the elementary school teachers of Taipei City as the objects, this study aims to understand the circumstances and opinions of teachers in using the Fire Safety Museum of Taipei City Fire Department as the place to carry out disaster prevention education, thereby provides the school and the museum useful data for future cooperation and development. The data in this study is collected through questionnaire surveys, which is designed to understand the familiarity of teachers to the resources available in the museum, and the difficulties teachers encountered. From teachers’view point and demand, the study further discusses what the Museum and the school administration can offer in resources and assistances to benefit future cooperation and development between Fire Safety Museum and schools in disaster prevention education.
The results of this study are as follows:
1. Through the recommendations of acquaintances and colleagues, teachers are aware of the Museum in general. The exhibit areas that impress the teachers most are “Area of Earthquake Experience”, “Area of Smoke Experience” and “Area of Fire Fighting”. There are more than 68% of the teachers utilized the Museum resources while teaching disaster prevention. Those who did not claim that it is not a necessary resource in teaching disaster prevention.
2. To enhance students’ consciousness of disaster prevention and their resourcefulness, teachers usually use Integrative Activities as the axis and blend in Life Curriculum or Social Science . They would take 2-4 graders to visit the Fire Safety Museum and teach supplementary material to students by consulting the learning sheets of the Museum and its web page. Students are most interested in the “Area of Earthquake Experience” and “Area of Smoke Experience”. Based on the learning effects of the students, teachers generally consider “Area of Earthquake Experience” and “Area of Smoke Experience” as the most practical, attractive and inspiring exhibit areas. Teachers have high satisfactory rating which accounts for 98.9% with the visit.
3. Unfamiliarity with the teaching resources of the Museum and its vicinity influenced the inclination of teachers to arrange the students to visit the Museum. Less learning effects due to over crowded students in the tour also hindered teacher’s inclination.
4. Teachers suggest making the field trip a fixed school curriculum so that school administrators can assist in supporting teaching resources and making reservations. On mutual cooperation, the study suggests the Museum and the school authorities coordinate in planning teacher trainings in order to elevate teachers’ disaster prevention abilities. It also suggests that the Museum offer general disaster prevention lectures and experiences to every school and specify “sets of tours” on web pages as references for teachers in making lessen plans.
