早期之網站設計著重網頁內容，而且網站結構簡扼，所以網頁設計者只需留心網頁內容即可；然因目前之網頁繁多，結構因之繁雜，網站內找尋資料需耗費不少時間，而且並無區分使用者之年齡。本研究為此提供三種介面供學童查詢資料並模擬使用者習性，並從中找出適合的介面。本研究裡，提供三種介面供使用者選擇上網之環境；熟悉網站路徑與否以摸擬使用者之習性；統計查尋時間以選擇最適合之介面；期能藉本研究改善目前學童上網之環境。 In the early times, the web design emphasized the content of webpages rather than the structure of a organization. As a result, web designers could simply devote all of their effort to developing the content but leave the structure simply and straightforward. However, in recent years, an increasing number of webpages on the Internet have been produced. The scale of a website grows and the structure becomes far more complicated. In addition, websites are open to people of all ages without any explicit label to specify what age the website is designed for. In this case, searching specific information within a website would be laborious and fairly time-consuming. In this research three modes of interface design were constructed for primary school students to search in. It is aimed to find an appropriate mode of interface design. Whether students are familiar with paths of websites and simulate behaviors of users. Choosing the most suitable interface by computing the searching time.
