the Case Study on the Creative Team of English Teaching

本研究乃以台北市一所國中的英語團隊為研究對象，藉由訪談與觀察，就團隊的英語創意教學、英語創意團隊的特質、英語創意團隊的發展歷程及影響英語創意團隊發展內外相關因素四個面向進行分析，並得到以下的結論： 一、英語創意教學 （一）營造優質英語學習環境，從校園中雙語環境的建構開始，讓學生能自然 而然學習英文。 （二）每日一句與闖關活動，透過提供學生每天一個英文句子的構想，逐漸累積學生的英語學習基礎。 （三）推展英語閱讀風氣，由老師規劃選定英文書籍，提供學生進行選讀。 （四）建置線上測驗題庫，擴展學生更寬廣的學習空間。 （五）舉辦各項英語競賽，提供學生一個表現與揮灑的舞台。 （六）有效的英語教學策略，堅持符合學生個別差異，發展適合的教學方式。 （七）彙編英語學習護照，將學校推展的各項英語課程設計與活動進行統整。 二、英語創意團隊的特質 （一）團隊成員間充分合作精神，無論在創意活動的討論、或工作分配都是完全配合。 （二）對於工作的認真投入與付出，已是成員間的一種共識。 （三）沉重工作量所造成的負擔，並未使成員們卻步，反而讓老師們基於對教育專業的堅持，更加努力與投入。 三、英語創意團隊的發展歷程 （一）團隊成員的生態重組，正好資深教師退休，英語團隊成員彼此年齡接近且想法接近。 （二）由於對新的九年一貫教育政策不了解，英語團隊成員轉而依賴領域會議的討論與彼此的支持。 （三）召集人兼具規劃與帶領的角色，引導著團隊創意教學的研發。 （四）領域工作量劇增所帶來的疲備感，團隊成員會私下抱怨並相互打氣，只是這樣的聲音卻不曾影響到團隊的運作。 （五）隨著團隊人員數量的變動，例如缺乏實習教師的編制，召集人亦針對英語領域的創意活動進行調整，以適度減輕成員的工作負荷。 四、影響英語創意團隊發展內外相關因素 （一）教師專業進修的充實，奠定英語團隊的基礎資訊能力，。 （二）行政全力的配合與協助，以及公開場合對英語團隊公開讚賞與支持，給予團隊成員莫大的鼓勵。 （三）學生在學習態度上積極認真，且整體聽說讀寫能力亦大有進步。 （四）校內其他領域教師未對英語領域給與過多的關注與壓力，讓英語團隊有著更寬闊的空間。 （五）領域召集人對教育的堅持及領導風格，是帶動團隊發展的一個關鍵。 （六）教育政策上的頒布，提供老師一個進修及合作的機會點。 （七）隨著創意教學的落實，學生在英語表現漸有成果與進步時，家長的支持力量也展現出來。 根據研究發現與結論，本研究從以下三方面提出建議： 一、學校行政人員：學校領導者應統整學校本位課程課程，行政處室主動提供協助並促進各領域交流及對話。 二、學校領域團隊：應慎於團隊領導人的選定，且其角色功能應重於領導與協調；而團隊其他成員，則可從其教育熱忱的強化著手。 三、後續研究：對於未來相關研究的建議，首先在研究向度可加入學校教師文化的探討，另可將創意團隊與創意個人的表現作一比較。The research focuses on a junior high school in Taipei.
