碩士 === 開南大學 === 人文社會學院公共管理碩士在職專班 === 102 === The policy “the 12-year compulsory education” started in 2011, when the 7th-graders entered junior high school graduate in June, 2014. Besides achieving the goal of teaching in multiple ways, the policy also sets up different ways to evaluate junior high school students. Also, the Ministry of Education hopes to remove the stress from entering a senior high school, to promote the quality of education in junior high schools and elementary schools, to make all students more successful, and to raise the competitiveness of the whole country. However, this policy still becomes a big controversial issue. This research is to understand the attitudes of junior high school students (mainly 9th-graders and some 8th-graders) in Taoyuan County on this policy, and to propose a better idea for the debated parts. The researcher gets and analyzes the statistics of the poll made up with his experiences of working in a junior high school. The results reflect two aspects to discuss: a. most students of the schools in the countryside feel much more stressful getting points from different kinds of contests; b. Comprehensive Assessment Program for Junior High School Students (CAP) can’t reduce the stress from the students who hope to enter public senior high schools or vocational schools. This research will try to give better ideas to make this policy more applicable for each junior high school student.
