| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 特殊教育學系在職進修碩士班 === 100 === The study aims to investigate the current conditions, differences and relationships among independent study, problem-solving ability and problem-solving attitude. The purposes of the study include: 1) to understand the current conditions among independent study, problem-solving ability and problem-solving attitude of the gifted students in the senior high schools; 2) to explore the differences among independent study, problem-solving ability and problem-solving attitude of gifted students with various background in the senior high schools; 3) to realize the relationships among independent study, problem-solving ability and problem-solving attitude of gifted students in the senior high schools; 4) to realize how independent study affects problem-solving ability and problem-solving attitude of gifted students in the senior high schools.
The study chooses students from mathematics and science gifted classes of public senior high schools in 2010 as research subjects, which make a total of 157, with one class chosen from each school. The study adopts a questionnaire survey method by using research tools including self-adopted “independent study survey”, revised “questionnaire on the problem-solving ability”, “questionnaire on the problem-solving attitude”. The results were analyzed through the following statistics methods: descriptive statistics analysis, independent sample t-test, One-Way ANOVA and Pearson's product-moment correlation. Conclusions are achieved as follows:
1.Regarding to the current conditions of independent study perceived by gifted students in the senior high schools, the score marks above average. All aspects, in which, the “research method factor” got the highest scores, and “resources assistance” got the lowest. Regarding to the current conditions of problem-solving ability perceived by gifted students in the senior high schools, the score reaches above average. All aspects, in which, the “problem awareness” got the highest scores, and “outcome envisions” got the lowest. Regarding to the current conditions of problem-solving attitude perceived by gifted students in the senior high schools, the score reaches above average. All aspects, in which, the “approach-avoidance intension” got the highest scores, and “control of oneself” got the lowest, and both aspects adopt reverse scoring.
2.There were no significant differences on the current conditions of independent study, problem-solving ability and problem-solving attitude of gifted students in the senior high schools. There were significant differences in the independent study on different-gender gifted students in the senior high schools, with the perception of female students being significantly higher than that of male students. There were no significant differences in the problem-solving ability and problem-solving attitude on different-gender gifted students in the senior high schools.
3.There were significant relationships between independent study and problem-solving ability, independent study and problem-solving attitude, and problem-solving ability and problem-solving attitude.
4.Among gifted students in the senior high schools, who have better perception in the independent study have better problem-solving ability and problem-solving attitude, whilst those with less than average perception do not perform well in the respects of problem-solving ability and problem-solving attitude.
