碩士 === 臺北市立教育大學 === 自然科學系碩士班 === 99 === The purposes of the study investigated that (1) the influence of the “Lego FLL Science and Technology Curriculum” on gifted students; (2) the influence in technological creativity in science and technology; (3) the mode of teaching the students preferred most among all teaching methods. In the experimental method, there were eleven gifted students from the fifth grade in Taipei City who joined the project for two class hours per week during ten weeks. There were, in total, twenty class hours for setting explorative activities. Class observation and student interview were analyzed in the study. There were three outcomes in the study as blow: (1) The creativity in science and technology had better performance in post-interview than pre-interview, especially in problem-solving ability field. After treatment, students of different learning competency groups all had better performance in technological creativity than before treatment. (2) In the “Group A”, the first level of performance students, their elaboration and problem-solving skills improved the greatest; in “Group B”, the second level of performance students, sensitivity and flexibility were ranked in 1st and 2nd among seven levels; and in “Group C”, the last level of performance students, sensitivity and fluency were ranked in 1st and 2nd among seven levels. (3) During the period time, students were more prefer hands-on activities than others. The study showed that the “Lego FLL Science and Technology Curriculum” had a positive impact on students by using self-performance in technological creativity, and after treatment all group students had superior performance than before treatment. The study provided some valuable suggestions for elementary school science teachers in the field.
