| Summary: | 碩士 === 樹德科技大學 === 幼兒保育系 === 98 === The purpose of this research is to understand the influence of the sketchbook teaching for improving the preschool children’s self-concept and the peer interaction, which includes the different teaching groups and sexes effects. Forty-seven 4-years-old children from Kaohsiung City Public Xinxin Kindergarten are randomly divided into two groups: the experimental group and the control group. According to the Quasi-experimental research method, through the expert validity, we choose sixteen sketchbooks for the experimental group students and perform a 8- week- teaching. Quantitative research tools include “The children self-concept scale” and “The children peer interaction scale”. We also produce “children’s feedback questionnaire of sketchbook teaching” and “parents’ feedback questionnaire of sketchbook teaching” to process the percentage and qualitative analysis. The test data before and after the teaching are statistically analysis by SPSS12.0 for Windows. After treating the data by descriptive statistic, single-factor ANOVA and two-factor analysis of covariance. Some conclusions are as following:
In the children self-concept field: there are significant differences between 2 groups in three dimensions: “totally self-judgment”, “language and communication ability” and “problem solving ability”. This indicates that the sketchbook teaching has overall effect on improving the self-concept of children. In the children peer interaction field: there are significant differences in three dimensions: “profit social behavior”, “withdrawal behaviors” and “exclusion”. This also indicates that the sketchbook teaching has overall effect on improving the peer interaction of children. Especially, we observe that girls have significant improvements in “profit social behavior”. As a result both children and parents not only represent that they like and agree the way of sketchbook teaching, but also get positive learning effect. Finally, base on the result of this research, we propose some suggestions for the school administrator, the teachers and the future researchers.
