iPad應用程式運用於高中英文教學之研究─以新北市北大高中為例

Abstract

隨著行動科技的發展與普及，行動載具與電腦的差距已日漸縮小，這也帶來了行動載具融入學習的契機，平板電腦如今已成為教學現場中有利的教學工具，改變了課堂內傳統的學習樣貌與方式，平板電腦的應用程式更增加了教學者的教學多樣性及學習者知識取得的主動性。平板電腦的線上市集，如：App Store和Google Play已有許多免費或低價的應用程式可應用在教學現場，然而，如何從眾多的應用程式挑選出合適的程式作為教學使用反而成為教師的困擾，目前之研究甚少探討平板電腦應用程式運用在教學上的成效。因此，本研究探討如何針對高中學生的學習需求，選擇適合的平板電腦應用程式以提升高中學生英語文能力，藉此研究歸納出適合提升英語文能力的應用程式，希望未來教師在選擇適合高中生使用之平板電腦應用程式時，能透過應用程式類型、學習目標及教學成效等原則選擇適合其學習之應用程式。

With the development and popularity of mobile technology, the difference between mobile devices and computers has decreased. This brings the opportunity of integrating mobile devices into learning. IPad has become a useful teaching tool in the classroom, which changes the traditional learning method.
