香港政府在二千年推行教育改革,目的在培養終身學習者。然而,對於學校如何在教改下進行改進,特別是初步校外支援後的發展,仍未有任何研究。本研究探討四所小學在教改下九年來的發展軌跡(1999-2008) ,旨在揭示學校改善的進程和能持續改進的原因。 ; 研究挑選了四個初步成功改革的學校個案,探討有關問題。研究資料來自兩個時段( 2001-03 年和2007-08 年) ,資料搜集方法包括訪問學校不同持份者和校外夥伴;實地觀察課堂、學生活動、專業發展活動和不間類型的會議;以及分析文件。 ; 研究發現,經過近十年的努力,四所學校在教與學、管理和組織、專業發展及家校合作四方面,都有顯著改善。這些改善相互支持學生的主動學習。然而,四所學校都面對著教育環境不斷變化所帶來的考驗,而學校能否將挑戰轉化為發展機會,取決於學校領導的集體解難能力。 ; 研究進一步發現學校變革的六個進程「聚焦和構建」、「管理阻力」、「試驗和技術轉移」、「試驗延展」、「深化和擴大改革」和「應付新抗戰」。這些進程標誌了學校在不同的改進階段所要解決的關鍵問題,以及校內外的變革能動者如何合力解決這些難題,推進學校發展。 ; 研究又發現,學校領導、校外支援、新的學校組織結構,以及校外政策環境,是推動學校改進的關鍵因素。透過學校領導的中介作用,政府的教改政策和所提供的各種資源,為學校改進提供了必要的方向、壓力和支持。學校導、校外支援和新的組織結構在不同階段的交互作用,以及不斷調校以回應不同時期的改進需求也是至關重要的。最後,隨著學校變革,學校出現了一群新領導,他們不僅幫助學校深化和擴大改革,也幫助學校回應新挑戰。 ; 本研究對學校改進的知識領域有三方面的貢獻,它揭示了1) 學校成功改善的進程和持續改進所需的條件; 2) 學校領導在學校改進中所扮演的角色;以及3) 政府政策影響學校教與學及行事方式的途徑。根據研究結果,本研究對教育當局和為學校提供專業支援的組織應如何協助學校改進,以及學校領導如何領導變革,作出建議。 ; This study aims to understand the processes and dynamics of sustainable school improvement. To do so, it examined the nine-year improvement trajectories (1999-2008) of four Hong Kong primary schools that had received initial intensive support from a school improvement program in the context of educational reform. The government sponsors education reform aimed at developing life-long leamers. However, little is known about how schools improve in the current reform environment, especially beyond the initial stage of intensive support. This study seeks to fill these gaps. ; The study employed a longitudinal multiple-case design. Four primary schools with initial reform success were purposefully chosen. Schools' improvement trajectories were traced using data gathered from two time periods (2001-2003 and 2007-2008)'. Data collected include interviews of key stakeholders and external partners; observations of classes, student'activities, staff development activities, and meetings at different levels; and review of documents. ; The study found that after a decade of conscientious reform efforts, the four schools underwent transformational changes in four areas of practice: Teaching and ...
